Protein Microchip Array technology makes it possible to examine patterns of protein expressions and modifications. Current technologies such as two-dimensional get electrophoresis (2-DE) in combination with mass spectrometry allows the identification of biologically relevant proteins with high resolving power, but has also considerable limitations. Most spots observed in 2-DE are from high abundan

Several studies have shown that alpha-ketoglutaric acid (AKG) increases serum levels of proline and has beneficial effects on skeletal development. We studied the effect of alpha-ketoglutaric (AKG) acid calcium salt (6 g AKG and 1,68 Ca/day) or calcium alone (1.68 Ca/day) on serum C-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) and osteocalcin (OC), as well as lumbar spine bone minera

Rapporten beskriver prototyper av kontinuerliga tvåfraktionsinsamlare för övervakning av partikulära luftföroreningar i arbetsmiljö som har konstruerats. En prototyp är personburen och ger möjligheter till insamling av två partikelstorleksfraktioner i 18 diskreta intervall. PIXE-metoden (analys med partikelinducerad röntgenstrålning) används för multielementanalys av de erhållna proven. Även med m

Quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based biomarkers, which capture physiological and functional tumor processes, were evaluated as imaging surrogates of early tumor response following chemoradiotherapy in glioma patients. A multiparametric extension of a voxel-based analysis, referred as the parametric response map (PRM), was applied to quantitative MRI maps to test the predictive poten

Arbetsdomstolens partsammansättning har länge ifrågasatts. Fyra av sju ledamöter utnämns på förslag av centrala arbetsmarknadsorganisationer. Denna sammansättning är en konsekvens av att den svenska arbetsrättsliga lagstiftningen utgår ifrån den s.k. svenska modellen med kollektivavtalsbärande centrala arbetsmarknadsorganisationer som legala representanter för arbetsmarknadens parter. I den juridiThe composition of the Swedish Labour Court with members representing the interests of employers and employees has been questioned since long. Four out of seven members are appointed and mandated on proposals of central labour market organizations (this members are hereinafter referred to as “interest members”). This composition is an effect of the fact that the Swedish labour legislation assumes

I Sverige finns ett antal företag som med stöd av offentlighetsprincipen samlar in personuppgifter ur allmänna handlingar och publicerar dessa i söktjänster på internet. Genom användning av söktjänsterna går det att skapa sig en utförlig bild av en viss individ. Söktjänsterna har i regel beviljats utgivningsbevis och omfattas därför av grundlagsskyddet i YGL. I Sverige har en vedertagen uppfattninIn Sweden, there are several companies that, relying on the principle of public access to official documents, gather personal data and publish this information in online search services. Through use of these services, it is possible to access a detailed profile of a specific individual. The search services have generally been granted a so-called certificate of publication and are consequently prot

Syftet med denna kvantitativa studie var att följa upp extremt för tidigt födda (före vecka 29) när de nått vuxen ålder. De extremt för tidigt födda jämfördes med en kontrollgrupp bestående av jämnåriga födda i fullgången tid. Deltagarna i studien hämtades från en uppföljningsstudie av extremt för tidigt födda som tidigare följts upp vid 10 och 18 års ålder. Deltagarna var vid tiden för studien 27The aim of this quantitative study was to follow up children born extremely preterm (before week 29) in adulthood. The group of extremely preterm adults was compared to peers born at term. The extremely preterm and the control group have previously been followed up at ages 10 and 18. At the time of this study the participants were 27-28 years old. Questionnaires were sent to the two groups and 77

Världen förändras kontinuerligt. Företag arbetar idag hårt för att hålla jämna steg med omvärlden för att på så vis hålla sig konkurrenskraftiga. Att arbeta för att hitta nya affärsmöjligheter har blivit av allt större betydelse. IKEA är ett globalt företag som står inför en enorm tillväxt för att nå deras mål till år 2020. För att klara denna tillväxt och för att kunna säkra försörjningen till nyThe world is continuously changing. Today many companies work hard to keep up with the surrounding world to stay competitive. To work with finding new business opportunities has become of higher importance than ever. IKEA is a global company facing a tremendous growth to reach their goal for 2020. To manage this growth and be able to secure supply to new retail markets, the company needs to increa

In 2008, the National Library of Sweden decided to transition from the Swedish system of classification, SAB, to the internationally established system Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC). The aim of this master’s thesis is to study the process of transition and the effect of this transition on the library collections and users of three Swedish libraries: two university libraries and one public lib

Today’s hospitals in Sweden are all dependent of large networks of suppliers of medical supplies. These consist of many supply chains that are regularly exposed to both external and internal risks. One hospital affected by these risks is UMAS (Malmö University Hospital). UMAS is dependent on its supply chains to work without disruptions but it is unclear what risks they might be exposed to and how

This article aims at describing a logistic approach for prolonged resuscitation efforts in the cath-lab using mechanical chest compressions (MCC) during simultaneous percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

After a long career in studying agricultural and rural development, in the following paper I take the opportunity to reflect on these issues in the rear view mirror. The advantage of this is of course that my biographical time span now covers a considerable historical one, starting with the apocalyptic alarms over the population bomb at the end of the 60s, especially in Asia, and the widespread fe

It is well known that the xylem of gymnosperm trees consists mainly of tracheids and that the dimensions of these cells change over the growth season in temperate regions. When looking at a micrograph of a cross section of a growth ring, it can be seen that early in the season tracheids have larger radial diameters and thin walls, while tracheids formed later in the growth season have smaller radi

It is a trivial fact that water is needed for decay of wood by brown rot fungi, but when this is looked at in more detail, there are several fundamental questions concerning water and decay that are not solved. The purpose of this study is to study how the wood-water interaction is changed during degradation of brown-rot fungi of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L) Karst.) grown at two different parts

Den 13 november 1872 inträffade en extrem översvämning i kustområdena kring Södra Östersjön. Högt vattenstånd i kombination med höga vågor ledde till att cirka 300 personer omkom och fler än 15 000 blev hemlösa. Utmed Skånes kust omkom minst 23 personer, över 100 bostadshus förstördes och hundratals kustfiskare förlorade sin inkomstkälla då båtar och fiskeredskap slogs sönder och drogs ut i havet.On November 13, 1872 an extreme flood occurred in the coastal areas surrounding the South Baltic Sea. An extreme storm surge in combination with high waves caused the death of about 300 people and more than 15,000 people lost their homes. Along the coast of Scania, southern Sweden, at least 23 people were killed and more than 100 houses were destroyed. Hundreds of fishermen lost their source of in
