This chapter describes some of the special neurochemical features of the areas of the brain selectively vulnerable to ischemic and hypoglycemic insults. The chapter focuses on the neuronal connections to the vulnerable brain areas, on the distribution of receptors and transmitter content in the vulnerable areas, and on some current hypothesis of neuronal damage. Emphasis will be placed on a possib

The effect of flunarizine, a calcium entry blocker, on ischaemic damage was investigated using a new model of forebrain ischaemia. Fasted rats were subjected to nine minutes ischaemia and one week recovery. One group served as control; a second was pretreated orally with flunarizine; a third group received postischaemic flunarizine treatment Focussing on the hippocampus, an area of high susceptibi
In this chapter, the pathophysiology and neurochemical pathology of epileptic brain damage is discussed on the basis of an integrative approach in which a comparison is made to cell necrosis resulting from ischemia and hypoglycemia. Two main questions are asked. First, is the brain damage resulting from these three disorders of cerebral energy metabolism similar in distribution and structural char
The recent increase in climate warming has further increased the interest of climate policy in the European Union. In order to adapt to the climate change, policies must be implied to guarantee adaptation, and they need to be effective, even if members of the supranational organization have significant economic growth. Therefore, this research will examine what policies EU member nations, Ireland
The study analyses postfeminism in an organisational context from a critical feminist perspective by exploring the contemporary perceptions of gender and gender equality in a female student career network. Furthermore, the study aims to investigate how these perceptions are projected and how they relate to organisational values, principles and processes of the organisation. Hence, How does postfem
This study aims to investigate if micro- and nanoparticles of polystyrene affect microorganisms in soil. This was tested by using microfluidic chips, which are new for investigation of soil ecology questions, providing artificial channels reflecting soil conditions as well as being transparent for seeing real-time interactions. Eight microfluidic chips were made; four were filled with a micro- and
Uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka huruvida Maria Gripes roman Agnes Cecilia – en sällsam historia (1981) kan sägas tillhöra den fantastiska litteraturen. Analysen utgår från Tzvetan Todorovs teori om den fantastiska genren som den presenteras i hans studie The Fantastic: A Structural Approach to a Literary Genre, publicerad 1970. Den fantastiska litteraturen är i hans bemärkelse en tvetydig litt
The purpose of the study was to investigate how employees in the staffing industry experience their psychosocial work environment, which control they have over their work situation, the requirements that they are experiencing at work, and which level of social support that is available. The data were collected through in-depth interviews with seven participants who are employed on temporary agenci
Stranderosion har länge utgjort ett stort problem vid många av Skånes sandiga kuster. Erosionen har varit speciellt svår vid Löderups strandbad. Det undersökta området består av en 2.6 km lång kustremsa. I de västra delarna där samhället ligger har stränderna varit skyddade av strandskoningar sedan mitten av 1970-talet. Trots dessa skydd har flera hus blivit förstörda under stormar de senaste deceSevere beach erosion has for long been a great problem for the house owners at Löderup seaside resort in Scania, south Sweden. Several houses have been destroyed during storms the last decades, despite constructions of sea walls. The aim of the investigation has been to describe the status and changes of the coastline during one year from April 1991 to April 1992, to determine the extent of the co
Popular Abstract in Swedish Dagens vårdsystem står inför många stora utmaningar. Många av dem är relaterade till komplexa vårdbehov hos den allt större andelen sköra äldre personer. Denna andel ökar samtidigt som många vårdorganisationer har krav på sig att minska kostnaderna. Dessa äldre personer har ofta flera sjukdomar samtidigt och de har vanligtvis kontakter med många olika vårdgivare, på fleThe overall aim of this thesis was to investigate healthcare utilisation patterns and to explore the effects of a case management intervention for frail older people on healthcare utilisation and costs in relation to utility. A further aim was to explore the older people’s and case managers’ experiences of the intervention. Study I was a quantitative study comprising ten age cohorts aged between 6

Mild traumatic brain injury, such as concussion, was once considered self-resolving. However, over the past decade, increased understanding of the short- and long-term impact has led to new guidelines for active management. In this review, we summarise recent findings, covering diagnostic criteria, and management for early and persistent symptoms. Many of the postconcussive symptoms can be treated
