Presently there is no neuroprotective pharmacological treatment of proven clinical safety and efficacy available. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the ss-carboline, abecarnil (Abe), which has already passed clinical phase III trials in patients with anxiety disorders, is neuroprotective in in vitro models of cerebral ischemia or excitotoxicity. Abe (100 nM) protected cultured c

The so-called X17 particle has been proposed in order to explain a very significant resonant behaviour (in both the angular separation and invariant mass) of e+e− pairs produced during a nuclear transition of excited 8Be, 4He and 12C nuclei. Fits to the corresponding data point, as most probable explanation, to a spin-1 object, which is protophobic and has a mass of approximately 16.7 MeV, which t

The high-luminosity phase of LHC operations (HL-LHC), will feature a large increase in simultaneous proton-proton interactions per bunch crossing up to 200, compared with a typical leveling target of 64 in Run 3. Such an increase will create a very challenging environment in which to perform charged particle trajectory reconstruction, a task crucial for the success of the ATLAS physics program, an

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common inflammatory skin condition and prior genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified 71 associated loci. In the current study we conducted the largest AD GWAS to date (discovery N = 1,086,394, replication N = 3,604,027), combining previously reported cohorts with additional available data. We identified 81 loci (29 novel) in the European-only analysis (wh

The growth of plant-based food and drink substitutes has led to increased interest in oat-based milk substitute as a dairy milk alternative. Conventional liquid oat base (LOB) production results in a fibre-rich insoluble by-product and loss of valuable macronutrients. This study investigates the use of xylanase enzymes to release insoluble arabinoxylan (AX) fibre and employs different degrees of m

There is a growing body of literature showing that health in infancy has a strong influence on health and productivity later in life. This paper uses exogenous improvements in infant health generated by the introduction of a medical innovation in the late 1930s as treatment against several infectious diseases, in particular pneumonia reduced by the advent of the sulfa medicaments. Based on rich ad

Banana, maize, potato and sagu starches were boiled in the presence or absence of plasticizer (glycerol), producing edible films. In vitro digestibility features, amylose content and amylopectin gel filtration behavior of films and parent starches were evaluated. Available starch contents were lower in glycerol-containing films, due to dilution by the plasticizer. Total resistant starch increased

Central Asia is one of the regions with the highest probability of conflicts over water. Kazakhstan is the main Central Asian economic power and therefore it is important to understand how the country’s water management policy is influencing water availability in the other Central Asian states. Already, the Central Asian economies are developing under increasing water deficiency, resulting in deve

This thesis utilises congruence analysis to investigate if education can be expected to contribute to democratisation in Cambodia, and if Sweden’s and the EU’s development assistance to Cambodia’s education sector can be considered to contribute to democratisation. The study identifies six causal mechanisms in current literature that links education to democratisation. The conditions for each mech

This report is a fire safety assessment of the multi-function sports facility Motala sporthall. The building is used for a variety of sports and activities on an everyday basis. On occasion the building is also used for larger events such as sports competitions, dinner parties, nightclub events and for lodging. This poses new challenges to the current fire protection systems of the building and th

It is of central interest in membrane proteomics to establish methods that combine efficient solubilization with enrichment of proteins and intact protein complexes. We have investigated the quantitative and qualitative solubilization efficiency of five commercially available detergents using mitochondria from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as model system. Combining the zwitterionic detergent

Complement analysis in the clinic is usually associated with the quantification of C3 and C4, measurement of C1-inhibitor and screening for complement activity. These analyses have been available in routine diagnostic laboratories for decades. In recent years, however, the field of complement analysis has expanded considerably, with the introduction of novel assays to detect complement activation

He-3 was a popular material in neutrons detectors until its availability dropped drastically in 2008. The development of techniques based on alternative convertors is now of high priority for neutron research institutes. Thin films of B-10 or (B4C)-B-10 have been used in gas proportional counters to detect neutrons, but until now, only for small or medium sensitive area. We present here the multi-

Context: New data regarding the diagnosis and treatment of male infertility have emerged and led to an update of the European Association of Urology (EAU) guidelines for Male Infertility. Objective: To review the new EAU guidelines for Male Infertility. Evidence acquisition: A comprehensive work-up of the literature obtained from Medline, the Cochrane Central Register of Systematic Reviews, and re

Climate change (CC) is one of the major and most encompassing threats in the world today. While the facts and high-consensus predictions among natural scientists are increasingly well-known, the understanding of CC as a socio-ecological issue is much less clear and uncontroversial. This paper summarizes the available climate science expertise and then discusses the genesis of CC as a socio-ecologi

Background Patients with gastrointestinal neuromuscular diseases may undergo operative procedures that yield tissue appropriate to diagnosis of underlying neuromuscular pathology. Critical to accurate diagnosis is the determination of limits of normality based on the study of control human tissues. Although robust diagnostic criteria exist for many qualitative alterations in the neuromuscular appa
