The current extent of knowledge on the supply of carbon compounds to mycorrhizal roots and mycelia, and their subsequent distribution and cycling within the soil ecosystem is reviewed. The carbon requirements of different mycorrhizal fungi are discussed and carbon transfer from host root tissue to the fungal biomass is considered in relation to available information on the amounts and types of com
Early and accurate diagnosis of intestinal ischemia is important in order to provide rapid and correct treatment and reduce morbidity and mortality rates. Clinical signs and symptoms are often unspecific. This systemic review sums up literature regarding human plasma biomarkers for acute mesenteric ischemia reported during the last ten years. Classic, general markers, including lactate, white cell
Exposure to aerosol nanoparticles has always been present in the evolution of humans, and thus has the human body developed ways of dealing with particles that enters the body. However with the emerging nanotech industry, new types of nanoparticles are being produced and used. Many of these particles have properties never seen before and this rise concern about how exposure to them might cause unw
The first Team Haemophilia Education (THE) Meeting was held on 7–8 May 2015 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. It aimed to promote the optimal care of patients with haemophilia through education of the multidisciplinary treatment team. This was achieved by reviewing the latest developments in haemophilia management, considering how these can be implemented in the clinic to improve patient care and pro
Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococcus) causes a variety of diseases, including acute pharyngitis, impetigo, rheumatic fever and the streptococcal toxic shock syndrome. Moreover, S. pyogenes was responsible for the classical example of a nosocomial infection, the epidemics of puerperal fever (childbed fever) that caused the death of numerous women in earlier centuries. The most extensively

This thesis is a concept study performed at Caran AB by order of Volvo Car Corporation, VCC. The background is a market research performed by VCC. From the research, a need for a product that facilitates reaching the trunk level in Volvo’s SUV, XC90, was recognized. It was also found, that dogs seem to find it difficult to get up in the trunk, why dogs have been accounted for during the developmen
The intangible nature of software means that traditional processes for managing product development are not sufficiently effective. This, in combination with the increasing share of software in technical products, has had the effect of making it difficult to identify improvement proposals for engineering processes in many cases. This thesis uses both qualitative and quantitative research methods t
Our purpose in this paper is to discuss Swedish nature in a specific context, namely that of ecotourism. The wider framework is the concept of cultural economy in relation to nature. Nature is culturally constructed – given meaning – by the actual doings of e.g. ecotourism operators, and this meaning is transformed into cash flows through tourist practices. It is this cultural construction of natu
This paper concerns the robustness of attitude controllers for dynamics configured on the SO(3) manifold and poses a set of bilinear matrix inequalities to find an optimal controller tuning with respect to (i) the ultimate bound of the error-state trajectories when perturbed by naturally arising disturbances, and (ii) the worst-case decay rate of the tracking errors. The presented optimization pro

This project entails the development of a model for determining the spatial resolution in scanning applications of pulsed-neutron sources, such as at the European Spallation Source (ESS). The development of this model involves the simplification of the problem of representing a pulse neutron scanning across a sample by approximating the pulsed neutron beam as a continuous laser beam scanning acros
The aim of this Master’s thesis is to research the presence of lesbians in historical archives. My material consists of interviews with four swedish archivists. The aim of these interviews is to research the priorities and the work that is beeing done at the archives concerning collecting material that is missing in the archive and making existing material related to lesbian lives accessible.

Bakgrund: Diabetes typ 2 är en kronisk folksjukdom som ökar över hela världen till följd av övervikt och fetma. Sjukdomen innebär att kroppen producerar mindre insulin och inte längre klarar av att hantera glukos i blodet. Den primära behandlingen vid diagnosen är egenvård i form av ändrade levnadsvanor. Diagnosen kan leda till svåra komplikationer samt kortare liv om personer med diabetes typ 2 m
Bakgrund: Manligt kön och hög ålder har visat sig utgöra riskfaktorer att återinläggas på IVA. Att implementera uppföljande verksamhet efter utskrivning, såsom PIG-team, kan bidra till att identifiera patienter som riskerar att försämras i sitt sjukdomstillstånd eller återinläggas på IVA. Tillämpandet av bedömningsinstrumentet NEWS har visat sig kunna identifiera patienter som löper risk för oplanBackground: Male sex and older age have been described as risk factors for readmission to the Intensive Care Unit [ICU]. The implementation of PIG-team can help to identify patients who are at risk for clinical deterioration or being readmitted to the Intensive Care Unit. The usage of National Early Warning Score [NEWS] has been proven to effectively discriminate patients who are at risk for unpla
