Pulmonary fibrosis remains a devastating and often fatal condition due to the lack of effective treatments that halt disease progression. Rodent models of pulmonary fibrosis are crucial to identify candidate targets and novel therapeutic agents. However, the attrition rate of novel drug candidates in clinical trials remains high. This review suggests complementing traditional methods used to evalu
This paper presents a single-layer filtering antenna (filtenna) based on a compact square substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) cavity for millimeter-wave (mmWave) applications. The cavity operates in the fundamental TE110 mode to enable beam scanning, while a central shorting via introduces the TE210 mode, broadening the bandwidth. A radiating slot, placed at high-intensity regions of both modes,
Re and Os concentrations and isotopic composition were analysed in four ultramafic cumulates from the Kedum tectonic lens within the Mylonite Zone, SW Sweden. An 1887±36 Ma isochron is obtained for six samples and interpreted to date the Kedum body. This is significantly older than the -1600-1700 Ma surrounding crust and the first rocks of Svecofennian age west of the Trans Scandinavian Igneous Be
This article presents and discusses results from an exercise in comparative content analysis of news articles about issues of conflict produced by Afghan journalists before and after participating in an internationally sponsored training and mentorship programme in Peace Journalism. The programme was part of a Preventing Violent Extremism (PVE) project, intended to create community resources for r
The potential microbial risk from using treated wastewater is a burning issue to be studied. In Sweden, only a small part of treated wastewater is reused directly, although water reuse could be beneficial. Disinfection is virtually never practised and no protective guidelines for water reuse are found in Sweden. Based on a 1 year monitoring programme of water quality, this paper estimates the micr
There is a need for integrated care and smooth collaboration between care-providing organisations and professions to create a continuum of care for frail older people. However, collaboration between organisations and professions is often problematic. The aim of this study was to examine the process of implementing a new continuum of care model in a complex organisational context, and illuminate so
The purpose of this project was to investigate the possibilities to manufacture wet-glued laminated beams for load bearing applications from Norway spruce side board lamellae and by that achieve products that are difficult to obtain from the centre yield of a log and also contribute to increased profitability in the sawmill industry.
Properties such as shape stability, strength an
En enkätundersökning har genomförts bland brandingenjörer i Sverige med syftet att få information om detektionstider samt reaktions- och beslutstider vid en utrymning av tre olika lokaltyper; varuhus, restaurang och danslokal/nattklubb. Reslutaten kan ligga till grund för fortsatta studier för att bestämma partialkoefficienter för dimensionering av de gångvägar som används vid utrymning. Den ger o
Popular Abstract in Swedish Gasturbiner har länge varit en ekonimsk och driftsäkert sätt att producera energi. Främst har dom använts för framdrivning av flygplan och production av elektricitet och värme. Dom ständigt ökade kraven på miljöfarliga emissioner har tvingat fram nya metoder för att producera kraft. Nästa generations kraftverk måste ha hög termisk verkningsgrad samt mycket låga emissionGas turbines have served as economically profitable and reliable generators of power for the past few decades, and have mainly been used in simple and combined cycles. The increased restrictions on hazardous emissions and the increased demand for profitability have created new prospects for innovative power cycles. The requirements for these new power cycles are substantially better emissions, hig
To enhance the performance of gas turbine engines, high top-cycle temperatures are desired. However, the temperature is limited by current materials. To achieve the higher performance, and meanwhile maintain the metal temperatures of the combustors, vanes and blades below the allowable limits, sophisticated cooling techniques, such as impingement cooling, film cooling and convective internal cooli
Background. A spectrum of cutaneous human papillomaviruses (HPVs) is detectable in nonmelanoma skin cancers, as well as in healthy skin, but the significance that the presence of these types of HPV DNA has for the pathogenesis of skin cancer remains unclear. Methods. We studied 349 nonimmunosuppressed patients with skin lesions (82 with squamous cell carcinomas, 126 with basal cell carcinomas, 49
A naturally contaminated sediment was partially extracted with selective supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) to remove a fraction of supposedly bioavailable PCBs from the matrix. Eels (Anguilla anguilla) were cultured in systems with untreated and pre-extracted sediment, respectively, and it was shown that the SFE treatment selectively removed bioavailable PCBs from the sediment, since relative b
A large gravel pit 30 km north of the Pomeranian ice margin has been investigated. Besides gravel, sand, fines and diamicton, several deposits of organic material are present, some of them showing a typical Eemian Pollen- and macroflora. Previous interpretations assume that the sediments below the Eemian peat belong to the Saalian, and those above the peat to the Weichselian. Sorted sediments in t
During the last few years the home care services have had to face an increased responsibility for medical tasks. A study in the city of Malmö in 1993, repeated in 1998, shows that 95% of the health care assistants are engaged in the administration of medication. The studies demonstrate that health care assistants have inadequate knowledge not only about medicines and their administration but also
A mixed initial-boundary value problem for a nonlocal, hyperbolic equation is analyzed with respect to unique solubility and causality. The regularity of the step response and impulse response (the Green functions) is investigated, and a wave front theorem is proved. The problem arises, e.g., at time-varying, electromagnetic, plane wave excitation of stratified, temporally dispersive, bi-isotropic
Uppsatsens huvudsakliga syfte är att utreda om det med härledning till EU-rätten och EUD:s rättspraxis kan utrönas en gränsdragning för när en privatperson till-handahåller tjänster kan anses göra detta i egenskap av en beskattningsbar person och följaktligen faller transaktionen under mervärdesskatterättens tillämpnings-område. Utredningens analytiska utgångspunkt utgår från det ekonomiska sam-liThis essay's main purpose is to examine when a private individual, who provides services, can be considered to do this as a taxable person and therefore falls under the scope of VAT. This survey's analytical starting point is based on the economic concept collaborative consumption. The term describes an economic model which is based on the coordination of individuals' consumption needs
