Crystallographic studies of enzymes involved in biosynthesis of fatty acids : beta-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein synthase II and delta9-stearoyl-ACP desaturase
(2003-05-16)
In the biosynthesis of fatty acids, the beta-Ketoacyl Acyl Carrier Protein Synthases (Kas) catalyse chain elongation by the addition of two-carbon units derived from malonyl-ACP, to an acyl group bound to CoA or the small ...
Genetic studies of atopic dermatitis

in combination with elevated allergen-specific serum IgE levels (sp-1gE+). 3. Atopic dermatitis with a more severe phenotype (extreme AD) 4. The severity score of atopic dermatitis.
For the phenotype sp-IgE+ suggestive linkage (p<7x10-4) was found...

of routine bone scintigraphy in untreated HL patients was limited. Bone involvement was a rare finding (7/183; 4%). Only one patient received additional local radiotherapy based on the scintigraphic findings. Bone pain was a good predictor of osseous...

Synthesis of heterocycles from anthranilic acid and its derivatives
(2004-05-07)
system, not a 7-membered 1,4-benzodiazepine-3,5-dione as originally claimed. Because the 1,4-benzodiazepine skeleton is highly interesting as a scaffold for development of new drugs, a few publications on synthesis of this target has appeared. However...
Diagnostic evaluation of fetal death with special reference to intrauterine infections
(2002-05-10)
-99 according to an extensive investigational protocol. A presumptive explanation of the stillbirth was established in 91% of the cases. The most common factors associated with intrauterine fetal death could be identified as infections (24%), placental...
Minimally invasive hernia surgery

Lichtenstein (5 vs. 7 days). The time of rehabilitation was shorter after TEP than mesh-plug or Lichtenstein (14 vs. 24.5 vs. 28.5 days). There was a tendency of more pain after Lichtenstein than after TEP or mesh-plug at follow-up. Laparoscopic hernioplasty...
Hepatitis C virus kinetics during antiviral treatment
