Athos Protaton 86) utgiven av Britt Dahlman och en svensk översättning av den systematiska samlingen av Apophthegmata Patrum (Ökenfädernas tänkespråk), bok 6. Översättningen har gjorts gemensamt av deltagarna i översättningsseminariet vid Johannesakademin.The book contains a Greek text (based on MS Athos Protaton 86) edited by Britt Dahlman and a Swedish translation of the Systematical collection of the Apophthegmata Patrum, book 6. The translation was made jointly by the participants in the translation seminar at Johannesakademin.

A literature review and a questionnaire study with 62 participants were carried out to provide recommendations on the design of a set of evacuation systems for road tunnels: 1) Traffic Information Sign (TIS) - message and size of the sign (large or small), colour scheme, and use of pictograms and/or flashing lights, 2) Emergency exit portal layout - colour scheme, 3) Acoustic systems - voice messa

Historical demography, which is the study of human population dynamics in the past, is central for understanding human behaviours and traits, such as fertility, mortality and migration. An important factor in demographic research is the geographic context. Where people lived often determined their social ties, exposure to diseases and economic development. Such information is essential not only fo

Vanadia was deposited on TiO2, ZrO2, HfO2, Nb2O5, and Ta2O5 supports using impregnation with either an oxalic acid solution of NH4VO3 or a solution of vanadyl acetylacetonate in ethanol. Prepared samples, with a nominal vanadia content in the range 0.5–2 monolayers, were characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman and infrared spectroscopy, and were us

A calculation scheme with significant modifications and improvements for determining the ionization balance and the ion temperature evolution in an electron beam ion trap (EBIT) is presented. The scheme is applied to thorium, tantalum and oxygen ions using a specific set of EBIT operating parameters. The results of the calculation are compared to experiment and previous calculations. Rates for the

"Lethal midline granuloma" of the upper airways generally encompasses T-cell lymphoma and Wegener's granulomatosis in Western populations. Treatment and outcome for each is different, but their pathological distinction may not always be possible on routine biopsy specimens. Within a defined population between 1947 and 1994, we found 12 cases of primary sinonasal T-cell lymphoma, all with a CD20-,

Objective: Pain measurement is a necessity in pain treatment but can be difficult in young children. The aim of this study was to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Behavioural Observational Pain Scale (BOPS) as a postoperative pain measurement scale for children aged 1-7 yrs. The scale assesses three elements of pain behaviors: facial expression, verbalization, and body position. Design

This chapter describes the utilization of recent extraction techniques such as supercritical fluid extraction, pressurized liquid extraction and microwave-assisted extraction for the determination of persistent organic pollutants in food and feed samples. These techniques have been developed because the extraction step can severely limit the entire analytical procedure. Several food crises, for ex

BACKGROUND: Recent studies performed with positron emission tomography have suggested that coronary flow reserve (CFR) is moderately to severely reduced after the arterial switch operation (ASO). These findings are of great concern but have not been confirmed by other methods. METHODS AND RESULTS: Eleven symptom-free children were studied between 4 and 11 (median 6.0) years after the ASO. Flow vel

An integrated process for purifying a 6.1 kilo base pair (kbp) plasmid from a clarified Escherichia coli cell lysate based on an ultra/diafiltration step combined with polymer/polymer aqueous two-phase system and a new type of chromatography is described. The process starts with a volume reduction (ultrafiltration) and buffer exchange (diafiltration) of the clarified lysate using a hollow fibre me

Reduction of energy use in buildings is fundamental for sustainable development. A computer program for the prediction of energy use in buildings was assessed by comparisons with the energy performance of existing buildings. The program was then used to evaluate the energy saving characteristics of concrete such as air tightness and heat capacity. The impacts on global environmental aspects and li

OBJECTIVE—To monitor glycemic control, treatable risk factors, and treatment profile for quality assessment of diabetes care on a national scale. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS—Four samples of 23,546, 32,903, 30,311, and 29,769 patients with diabetes (1996–1999) were studied based on a repeated national screening and quality assessment of diabetes care by the National Diabetes Register, Sweden, with
