Popular Abstract in Swedish Elektrocochleografi (ECoG) är en metod som mäter de elektriska signaler som uppstår i innerörat när örat stimuleras med ljud. Signalerna uppstår i snäckans sinnesceller, de så kallade hårcellerna, och i nervcellerna som utgår från snäckan. Snäckan är det organ som omvandlar ljudets mekaniska energi till elektriska signaler i hörselnerven. Hörselnerven förmedlar signalerElectrocochleography (ECoG) is an objective method to evaluate cochlear electrophysiology. The recordings are considered to reflect the mechano-electric processes of the cochlea, and can indicate the presence of suspected endolymphatic hydrops. The aim of the present thesis was to investigate the value of transtympanic (TT) ECoG in the clinical diagnosis and management of Menière´s disease. The tr

Tolerances, including geometry, dimension, and surface roughness, are an important part of production where the desire to manufacture quality products have to be weighed against the increase of manufacturing costs. The desired tolerance will influence the choice of both manufacturing method and machine tool. Given that machining is an adequate production method, variation of the required tolerance

The aims were to study the biological, socio-demographic and psychosocial health profile in a geographically defined population of middle-aged women, with focus on features of the metabolic syndrome and diabetes, and to study the efficiency of a screening method for high-risk individuals and the outcome of baseline lifestyle advices on the diabetes incidence. All women aged 50-59 years (n=10766)

Boken handlar om nordiska korståg och korsfarare från sent 1000-tal till början av 1500-talet. Vi får följa korstågsidéns utveckling och se hur den omsattes i praktik i medelhavsområdet och längs både södra och östra östersjökusten, mot vender och balter. Ett stort avsnitt ägnas även åt de svenska korstågen mot Ryssland på 1200-, 1300- och 1400-talen. Boken är försedd med en omfattande käll- och
