Objective: To report the use of a percutaneous carotid access with vessel closure devices (VCDs) during complex endovascular aortic arch repair. Methods: Seven international high-volume centers conducted a retrospective review of all patients receiving percutaneous carotid access with VCD during endovascular aortic arch procedures to investigate its feasibility and safety. The primary end point wa
This research discusses the importance of a photograph of an accused war criminal, Abdul Kader Molla, during the period immediately before the emergence of the Shahbag movement in Bangladesh. The image captures Kader Molla flashing a V sign, and it was taken in the moments after he had been sentenced to life imprisonment by the International Crimes Tribunal in Bangladesh in 2013. After Kader Molla

Objectives: To review case histories of patients in whom fibrosis played a significant role in the pathogenesis of their disease, and to determine whether intravenous gammaglobulin (IVIg) contributed to the regression of their fibrotic condition. Methods: Eight patients with excess fibrotic reaction in the course of diverse diseases were analysed; a tendency that reverted with different IVIg treat
Females often base their mate selection on multiple male traits. Different cues may be weighted differently in mating decisions, and play different roles such as indicating species identity or condition. The ontogeny of preferences for each cue can differ, which may offer a proximate explanation for the differential female evaluation of multimodal traits of males. We investigated whether female pr
This article investigates the extent to which merger and acquisition (M&A) activity contributed to the spatial clustering of the Dutch banking industry in Amsterdam. This analysis is based on a unique database of all banks in the Netherlands that existed in the period 1850-1993. We found that spatial clustering of the Dutch banking industry was not driven by the fact that banks performed bette
Over the last decades, many liberal democracies have experienced a tension between the education system’s expressed requirement to foster citizenship norms and the liberal (sub-) ideal of norm neutrality. This dilemma has been accentuated by, on the one hand, increased ethnical and cultural diversity, and, on the other hand, liberalization of society in general and the schooling system in particul
Protein G, a bacterial cell-wall protein with high affinity for the constant region of IgG (IgGFc) antibodies, contains homologous repeats responsible for the interaction with IgGFc. A synthetic peptide corresponding to an 11-amino acid-long sequence in the COOH-terminal region of the repeats was found to bind to IgGFc and block the interaction with protein G. Moreover, two other IgGFc-binding bac
We report on the shear induced transition from the L-3- to the L-alpha-phase studied by means of flow birefringence using the system pentaethyleneglycol monododecylether (C12E5), decane, water. The dependence of the critical shear rate, at which the transition from the isotropic state to the anisotropic takes place, on membrane volume fraction was studied in temperature ramp experiments at differe
The stress field in a finite, edge cracked specimen under load is computed using algorithms based on two slightly different integral equations of the second kind. These integral equations are obtained through left regularizations of a first kind integral equation. In numerical experiments it is demonstrated that the stress field can be accurately computed. Highly accurate stress intensity factors
A thermostable, alkaline active xylanase was purified to homogeneity from the culture supernatant of an alkaliphilic Bacillus halodurans S7, which was isolated from a soda lake in the Ethiopian Rift Valley. The molecular weight and the pI of this enzyme were estimated to be around 43 kDa and 4.5, respectively. When assayed at 70 degrees C, it was optimally active at pH 9.0-9.5. The optimum tempera
Caregiving relatives continue to feel primarily responsible for the care and well-being of elderly persons, when they are admitted to hospital. Although involvement of relatives in decision-making is rare, and the hospitalisation therefore may be a frustrating experience, little is known of relatives, experience of the hospitalisation of elderly persons from a life-world perspective. In this pheno
Amperometric biosensors based on corresponding dehydrogenases have been developed for the determination of ethanol, glucose and glycerol. The enzymes have been integrated in redox hydrogels using an Os complex-modified non-conducting polymer employed as the electrochemical mediator and poly(ethyleneglycol)-diglycidyl ether (PEGDGE) as the cross-linking agent. The developed biosensors showed a sens
The deposition of polystyrene latex particles (0.23 mum in radius) onto a glass surface, covered with indium-tin oxide, has been studied using a wall-jet cell. The particle deposition could be followed in a single experiment at several positions, exposed to a wide range of wall shear rates. A deposition model including a shielding function was applied in order to describe the process. Three shield
