Background: Starch is a well-studied material, produced by plants in granules to store energy. Starch finds a lot of applications in day-to-day life, in the food and pharmaceutical industry. This project was focusing on the utilization of starch retrogradation and the ability to form aqueous two-phase systems to prepare microspheres from the starch of different botanical sources and characterize t

Since Abney (1987), generative syntax has invested much interest in the structure of the Noun Phrase, producing numerous theoretical as well as descriptive studies. Within the field of Scandinavian Noun Phrase studies, Delsing (1993) was a groundbreaking work that has since been followed up by several important studies, including Vangsnes et al. (2003) and Julien (2005). This field of inquiry is e

BACKGROUND: Since 2006 we have used robotic assistance when performing minimally invasive laparoscopic fundoplications in children. We compared the costs of robotic surgery with the costs for open and laparoscopic surgery to test our hypothesis that the increased costs of the new technology are acceptable. METHOD: Costs were calculated using the regional hospital prices for our first 14 fundoplica

In line with current tendencies of ‘new modes of governance’, this essay introduces judicial tools, which strike a balance between the respect for national autonomy in individual assessments and the effective implementation of Community law. The balance is struck through the demands of structural guarantees; administrative safeguards, which weed out arbitrary national decision-making. These admini

This thesis, which is based on five original papers, covers different aspects of antibody specificity and diversity, with the overall goal to understand the makeup of antibody repertoires and their functionality as they occur in vivo or as they are developed in the laboratory. Besides their importance in the adaptive immune response, antibodies have emerged as an invaluable tool in applications r

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett membrans främsta funktioner är dels att fungera som en barriär och dels reglera transport mellan membranets omgivningar. I biologiska membran så utgörs barriären till stor del av lipider. Lipider är amfifila molekyler som består av en polär del som trivs i vattenrika miljöer, och opolär del som skyr vatten. I membranet så ordnar sig lipiderna i bilager. Ett bilager This thesis concerns the interplay between the lipid phase behaviour, domain formation and the permeability of bilayer membranes. An essential part of this work has been the understanding of the phase transitions and equilibrium properties of lipid bilayers. In this approach experimental results of lipid phase behaviour have been correlated to theoretical descriptions of the systems. An isothermal

Popular Abstract in Swedish Projektioner om framtida klimat i Arktis och subarktis tyder på att drastiska förändrinar väntar regionen under det närmaste århundradet. Inte bara temperaturen spås öka utan även nederbörd, och då framför allt nederbörden under vinterhalvåret. Dessa förändringar kommer sannolikt att ha stor inverkan på miljön i Arktis och subarktis, och stora forksningsansträngningar hClimate projections indicate that Arctic and sub-Arctic regions are facing a significant change in climate during the 21st century. With warmer temperatures precipitation is also expected to increase, and in particular winter precipitation. These changes are likely to have large impacts on the Arctic and subarctic environment, and extensive research has focused on ecosystem-climate interactions in

Background: Liver resection for colorectal liver metastases offers a 5-year survival rate of 25%–58%. This study aimed to analyze whether patients with colorectal liver metastases undergo resection to an equal extent and whether selection factors play a role in the selection process. Material and Methods: Data were retrieved from the Swedish Colorectal Cancer Registry (2007–2011) for colorectal ca

Cognitive reserve (CR) is thought to protect against the consequence of age- or disease-related structural brain changes across multiple cognitive domains. The neural basis of CR may therefore comprise a functional network that is actively involved in many different cognitive processes. To investigate the existence of such a “task-invariant” CR network, we measured functional connectivity in a cog

Context. The study of the Milky Way relies on our ability to interpret the light from stars correctly. With the advent of the astrometric ESA mission Gaia we will enter a new era where the study of the Milky Way can be undertaken on much larger scales than currently possible. In particular we will be able to obtain full 3D space motions of red giant stars at large distances. This calls for a reinv

Popular Abstract in Swedish Förekomsten av välfärdssjukdomar såsom diabetes och hjärt-kärlsjukdomar ökar kraftigt och det finns därför ett stort behov av preventiva åtgärder. Ett förstadium till dessa allvarliga sjukdomar är insulinresistens syndromet (IRS), även känt som det metabola syndromet. IRS utgör ett kluster av flera metabola störningar såsom bukfetma, högt blodtryck, förhöjda blodfetter The prevalence of metabolic disorders, such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and the insulin resistance syndrome (IRS) are increasing worldwide. However, disturbances in the metabolic status can be prevented by changing the daily diet towards more whole grains, vegetables, legumes and dairy products. Also the dietary glycaemic- and insulinaemic indices of foods may play a role. Rye prod

For the “Street Art, the City and the Public: Changing the Urban Vision” session at International Visual Sociology Association conference 2013, I discussed the unsanctioned nature of street art and the way it may influence our perception of public space. Taking as a point of departure George Simmel’s well-known thoughts on the blasé urban resident, I see public space as being dominated by individ

Background: Drug-related problems are common in older individuals. A medication reconciliation has the goal of identifying and maintaining an accurate medication list and can serve to prevent drug-related problems caused by discrepancies. Objectives: This study aimed to explore primary care physicians’ intentions towards performing medication reconciliation in patients with multimorbidity using a

Loess-palaeosol sequences (LPS) are among the most continuous terrestrial archives of Quaternary climate change. Their widespread distribution, high accumulation potential, and sensitivity to environmental variability make them critical for reconstructing past dust fluxes, wind regimes, and regional ecosystem responses. However, the reliability of such reconstructions is fundamentally constrained

BACKGROUND: Recent research using a data-driven cluster approach has identified five discordant subclassifying body mass index (BMI) subgroups, characterized by cardiometabolic biomarkers deviated from those predicted by BMI.OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the associations of these subgroups with risks of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and liver-related

Introduction: The importance of measuring vascular age has been emphasized in numerous studies, highlighting its critical role in precision medicine. This cross-sectional heterogeneity exploration study examined sex- and country-specific association of serum uric acid (SUA) and inflammation, measured as high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and vascular aging across populations with divers

Protein-based materials rely on controlled assembly across multiple lengthscales. Key organisational features often emerge before macroscopic fibres orgels form. Yet the pathways linking molecular organisation to material formationremain poorly resolved. This is partly because structural evolution across lengthscales is rarely measured concurrently within the same sample.This thesis examines prote
