This study explores the idea of flat organizational structures, which are gaining popularity due to their capacity to foster innovation and collaboration. Nevertheless, social interactions inside these organizations can still result in the emergence of social hierarchies, and some employees may hold positions of greater authority and status than others. Therefore, we examine how social hierarchies
Dark matter has an important role in our Universe, especially in galaxy formation and evolution, but there are many theoretical models that attempt to describe it and to find out which one, if any, are correct we must test them. Testing a theoretical model of this nature at a galactic scale must and has been done using computational methods through simulations, but this has revealed more complicat

In man, the predominant proteins in the seminal plasma include semenogelin I, semenogelin II and b-microseminoprotein (MSP). Semenogelin I and II are both synthesized in the seminal vesicles and are the backbone of the gel formed upon semen coagulation. MSP is synthesized in the prostate, but its role has not yet been defined. The genes and cDNA of semenogelin I and II and of MSP were cloned and c
Aims/hypothesis Minimal model analysis for insulin sensitivity has been validated against the glucose clamp and is an accepted method for estimating insulin sensitivity from IVGTT. However minimal model analysis requires a 3 h test and relevant expertise to run the mathematical model. The aim of this study was to suggest a simple predictor of minimal model analysis index using only 1 h IVGTT. Meth
Since the discovery of the mesoporous silica material templated by ionic surfactants and the subsequent development of materials templated by non-ionic surfactants and polymers, for example SBA-15, there has been a continuous research effort towards understanding their formation. In situ methodologies, such as Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS), Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS), spectroscopi
A search is reported for the pair production of a new quark b' with at least one b' decaying to a Z boson and a bottom quark. The data, corresponding to 2.0 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity, were collected from pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Using events with a b-tagged jet and a Z boson reconstructed from opposite-charge electrons, the ma
Proline-rich regions have been identified in many surface proteins of pathogenic streptococci and staphylococci. These regions have been suggested to be located in cell wall-spanning domains and/or to be required for surface expression of the protein. Because little is known about these regions, which are found in extensively studied and biologically important surface proteins, we characterized th
A composite material produced from a poly(vinyl alcohol) cryogel with entrapped particles of the strong anion-exchange resin Amberlite is presented. The properties of the composite material depended strongly on whether the resin was used in OH- form or Cl- form. The ion-exchange filler in OH- form caused both a significant reinforcement of the composite material and an increase in the gel fusion t
An adsorbent was developed from mature leaves and stem bark of the Neem (Azadirachta indica) tree for removing zinc from water. Adsorption was carried out in a batch process with several different concentrations of zinc by varying pH. The uptake of metal was very fast initially, but gradually slowed down indicating penetration into the interior of the adsorbent particles. The data showed that opti
Background: No studies to specifically determine the prevalence of contact allergy to acrylates/methacrylates in patch tested populations have been published. Objectives: To determine the prevalence of acrylate/methacrylate allergy in all patients tested to the baseline patch test series. Methods: Five acrylate/methacrylate allergens (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate, ethylene glyc
The genes coding for human and mouse AMACO, an extracellular matrix protein containing VWA-like domains related to those in MAtrilins and COllagens, were detected in databases, the cDNAs were cloned, and the primary structures were deduced from the nucleotide sequences. The genes consist of 14 exons and have a similar exon/intron organization. The protein consists of a signal peptide sequence, an
BACKGROUND: Human papillomavirus types 16 (HPV-16) and 18 (HPV-18) cause approximately 70% of cervical cancers worldwide. A phase 3 trial was conducted to evaluate a quadrivalent vaccine against HPV types 6, 11, 16, and 18 (HPV-6/11/16/18) for the prevention of high-grade cervical lesions associated with HPV-16 and HPV-18. METHODS: In this randomized, double-blind trial, we assigned 12,167 women b
During drying, timber changes its shape mainly due to shrinkage anisotropy, radial differences in longitudinal shrinkage and spiral grain. The warp, causing severe downgrading of the timber, can be reduced by restraint and appropriate climate treatments of different types. The research presented here is part of a larger project on the improvement of shape stability of Norway Spruce (Picea abies) b
Anti-GBM disease is a rare autoimmune condition characterized by autoantibodies targeting the alpha 3 chain non-collagen 1 domain of type IV collagen (alpha 3(IV)NC1). Recently, we isolated IgG reacting with alpha 3(IV)NC1 from normal healthy human sera. The current study examined the antigen and epitope specificity of these natural autoantibodies (NAA) using recombinant human alpha 1, 3, 5(IV)NC1
Introduction: Early excision and skin grafting has become the standard of good burn management, but it is associated with major blood loss. Aim: To determine the haemostatic effect of terlipressin compared with placebo. Material and methods: Fifty-one patients with bums of 10-20% total body surface area had early excision and split skin grafting of deep burns. The surface area of the bum wound and
Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) was induced in a mouse model (C57/BL6) to investigate the antioxidant status of animals at various clinical stages of the disease. For this purpose, blood, brain and spinal cord samples from EAE mice were collected and examined at different scores following post-immunization with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG). The clinical sign of mobilit
