We studied the role of arachidonic acid metabolites, histamine, and 5-HT in airway responses to trimellitic anhydride (TMA) in actively sensitized guinea pigs. Sensitization was produced by two intradermal injections of free TMA (0.1 ml of 0.3% TMA in corn oil). After 21 to 28 days, guinea pigs were anesthetized and challenged with intratracheal instillation of 0.5% TMA conjugated to guinea pig se
Objective: To describe anthropometric characteristics of participants of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). Design: A cross-sectional analysis of baseline data of a European prospective cohort study. Subjects: This analysis includes study populations from 25 centres in nine European countries. The British populations comprised both a population-based and a 'he
Structural biology has transformed a number of fields of biochemistry and biology. A few examples are the following. The allosteric uptake and release of oxygen from haemoglobin obtained an elegant description from the work of Perutz [ Perutz ( 1970), Nature ( London), 227, 726 - 739; Perutz et al. ( 1998), Annu. Rev. Biophys. Biomol. Struct. 27, 1 - 34]. The structure of tRNA highlighted the fact

Popular Science Summary There is a saying that the sun supports the life living on earth. In general, the sunlight supports plants living, and plants become the base of almost all forms of ecosystems. A reaction called photosynthesis exists in all kinds of plants and is the foundation of usage of sunlight energy. In the photosynthesis process, energy in the sunlight converted into the energy store
In the Nordic countries, an increasing part of the population consists of migrants from various backgrounds. Naturally, it is important to investigate what can be done in order for these migrants to integrate successfully. Previous research shows that some of the fundamentals of integration are trust and the sense of collective identity. Therefore, it is important to further investigate the compon
The consensus throughout history have been that sports have great potential to be a good influence on youths. Both in social development and preventive against antisocial behaviour. Despite this, there have been a small or non-existent interest to incorporate sports in social work with youths in Sweden, especially for those who are socially vulnerable. In this study, we intend to have a closer loo
Insects have been recommended by the FAO as a sustainable food alternative to meat. Despite their nutritional quality and sustainability, most Western countries still see insects as belonging far away from the dinner table. Although still a niche market, Denmark has been at the forefront of innovation and adoption of edible insects. I used integral theory to map out the structural, cultural and pe
Most people are somehow dependent on digital devices to make their everyday life work. Ever since the advent of the Internet, the digital world has become larger and more complex with each passing decade. This study examines whether it is possible to apply Henri Lefebvre's theory "Production of Space" to a Metaverse under construction. All the people who have been interviewed in the

In recent years a lot of criticism against the main assumptions of economic modeling has come to up, this has led to physicists entering the field of economics. By applying models originally developed for physics to economics, especially finance, analyzing methods with a different approach can be used. Inspired by earthquakes Didier Sornette created a model that analyze financial market crashes. W
Syftet med denna tvärsnittsstudie var att undersöka barns förståelse för empatiska reaktioners relationella innebörd och om denna skiljer sig beroende på ålder, samt undersöka om samband fanns mellan denna förmåga och förmåga till socialt perspektivtagande. Undersökningen jämförde barn i grundskolans årskurs 2 (n = 15, M = 8:7 år), årskurs 5 (n = 17, M = 11:8 år) och årskurs 8 (n = 13, M = 14:10 åThis cross-sectional study explored children’s understanding of empathic reactions relational meaning and if this understanding increases with age. It also explored an association between this ability and ability for social perspective taking. Comparisons were made between second graders (n = 15, M = 8:7 years), fifth graders (n = 17, M = 11:8 years) and eighth graders (n = 13, M = 14:10 years). T
Merparten studier som har undersökt hur nattjour påverkar prestation, hälsa och säkerhet, har genomförts i USA där det är vanligt med mycket långa arbetsveckor och arbetspass. Aktuell studie avsåg undersöka effekter av nattjour beträffande kognitiv funktion, riskutsatthet och belastning, under förhållanden representativa för svensk sjukvårdsorganisation. I studien deltog 30 läkare i södra Sverige,Most studies examining how on call duty nighttime affects performance, health and safety, were conducted in the United States where long working weeks and shifts are common. The current study examined the effects of on call duty nighttime on physician´s performance and strain under conditions representative for Swedish healthcare organization. The study enrolled 30 physicians from southern Sweden,
I uppsatsen har gällande rätt avseende utomståenderegeln i 57 kap. 5 § IL fram-ställts och analyserats. Utomståenderegeln är en undantagsregel från de särskilda beskattningsreglerna i 3:12-regelverket. Bestämmelsen blir tillämplig om aktie-ägaren visar att utomstående i betydande omfattning äger del i företaget. Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka om tillämpningen av bestämmelsen är ändamThis bachelor thesis deals with the outsider rule in 57:5 Swedish income tax law (IL). The outsider rule is an exemption clause, and if found applicable the general taxation rules will be applied instead of the special close company rules. The out-sider rule will be applicable if the shareholder shows that outsiders own a signifi-cant amount of the company's shares. The purpose of this thesis
The main objectives of this study were to outline the inter-and intraindividual and overall pharmacokinetic variability of S-citalopram, S-desmethylcitalopram, and S-didesmethylcitalopram in serum by means of therapeutic drug monitoring; and to investigate potential correlations between the serum concentration and simultaneously collected clinical data. The study was conducted on outpatients in Sw
PURPOSE: This study was designed to investigate, in a population-based setting, the surgical outcome in patients with rectal cancer according to the hospital volume. METHODS: Since 1995 all patients with rectal cancer have been registered in the Swedish Rectal Cancer Registry. Hospitals were classified, according to number treated per year, as low-volume, intermediate-volume, or high-volume hospit
We present multiband Hubble Space Telescope imaging of the calcium-rich supernova (SN) SN 2019ehk at 276-389 days after explosion. These observations represent the latest B-band to near-IR photometric measurements of a calcium-rich transient to date and allow for the first opportunity to analyze the late-time bolometric evolution of an object in this observational SN class. We find that the late-t
Introduction: MyPKFiT and the Web-Accessible Population Pharmacokinetic service—Hemophilia (WAPPS-Hemo) are web-based population-based applications developed for helping physicians individualize and optimize replacement therapy. Although MyPKFiT is intended for Octocog alfa and Rurioctocog alfa pegol use only, the WAPPS-Hemo is applicable to all factor VIII concentrates. Aim: To compare MyPKFiT an
Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequencies of nonsurgical retreatment, root-end surgery, extraction, and further restoration of root-filled teeth in Sweden in 2009 during a follow-up period of 5 years and to compare the outcomes in teeth restored with direct or indirect restorations. Methods: Data from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency were analyzed, and the frequencies
Knowledge of the material in the ATLAS inner tracking detector is crucial in understanding the reconstruction of charged-particle tracks, the performance of algorithms that identify jets containing b-hadrons and is also essential to reduce background in searches for exotic particles that can decay within the inner detector volume. Interactions of primary hadrons produced in pp collisions with the
