Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med studien är att bestämma de faktorer som påverkar eleverna då de löser matematiska problem i årskurserna 4-9 i grundskolan. Metoden, som använts, består i en analys av lösningarna till 25 problem, som getts i var och en av årskurserna. Några av problemen har varit desamma i alla årskurserna och ungefär 100 elever har deltagit i varje årskurs. Genom att undersöThe purpose of this study is to identify the factors influencing pupils when they individually solve problems in mathematics in grades 4-9 in the compulsory school (ages: 10-16 years). The method that has been used is an analyses of the solutions of 25 problems given to each grade. Some of the problems were the same in all grades and about 100 pupils participated in each grade. Through an examinat

The kinetics of oxidation of hydroxylamine by iron() have been studied spectrophotometrically. The effects of pH, reactant and product concentrations led to two experimental rate expressions. The results obtained are consistent with a mechanism dependent on the relative iron(III)-to-hydroxylamine concentrations; an excess of iron() gives a stoichiometry of 2 : 1 for the total reaction and N2O as t

Helicobacter pylori adherence in the human gastric mucosa involves specific bacterial adhesins and cognate host receptors. Here, we identify sialyl-dimeric-Lewis x glycosphingolipid as a receptor for H. pylori and show that H. pylori infection induced formation of sialyl-Lewis x antigens in gastric epithelium in humans and in a Rhesus monkey. The corresponding sialic acid-binding adhesin (SabA) wa

A MeV proton beam with a current in the range of fA-nA is usually measured using a secondary beam signal that is dependent on a sample or requires noise-free accurate charge integration in a Faraday cup. We propose a simple on-line beam current measurement setup that can be used to directly measure beam current during ion beam analysis. A fast beam blanker is used to modulate the beam position aft

Salmonella typhimurium is an intracellular bacterium that replicates in the spleen and mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) of orally infected mice. However, little is known about the Ag presentation and cytokine production capacity of dendritic cells (DC), particularly CD8alpha(+), CD8alpha(-)CD4(-), and CD8alpha(-)CD4(+) DC, from these organs in response to SALMONELLA: Infection of purified splenic DC w

The reported rate of detection of Chlamydia pneumoniae DNA within atherosclerotic lesions by PCR varies between 0 and 100%. In this study, identical sets of coded experimental atheroma samples (n = 15) and spiked controls (n = 5) were analyzed by 16 test methods in nine centers by means of PCR. The positive controls were correctly identified to levels of 1, 0.1, and 0.01 inclusion bodies of C. pne

We studied the prevalence of musculoskeletal pain and its impact on performance in orchestra musicians and in a reference group of actors, who share the mental stress in a performance situation, but without having the physical work load from an instrument. Swedish musicians (n = 103) from symphony and chamber orchestras and actors (n = 106) participated in a cross-sectional questionnaire study. Mu

The steadily increasing prevalence of diabetes constitutes a major health problem. By the year 2025, the prevalence of diabetes is estimated to be as high as 5.4 %. This is to be compared with reports from Swedish coronary care units, which suggest that as many as 66 % of the patients admitted in fact have previously undiagnosed diabetes or pre-diabetes (impaired glucose tolerance) 1. Cardiovascul

The paper analyses the behaviour of convergence/divergence primarily within Western Europe and the OECD in relation to market integration and to major technological shifts such as the second and the third industrial revolution. It also relates the behaviour to traditional growth theory and endogenous growth theory as well as to historical generalisations based on structural analysis. The empirical

This chapter investigates nominals in the early monolingual acquisition of Swedish. The major morphological properties of nominals in the adult grammar are described with regard to gender, number, definiteness, and nominal-internal agreement between determiner, adjective and noun. I summarise the empirical findings in the existing literature on the acquisition of nominals for Swedish children betw

The simultaneous detection of nitric oxide and glutamate using an array of individually addressable electrodes, in which the individual electrodes in the array were suitably modified with a highly sensitive nitric oxide sensing chemistry or a glutamate oxidase/redox hydrogel-based glutamate biosensor is presented. In a sequence of modification steps one of the electrodes was covered first with a p

Children with alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency, screened at birth, were followed prospectively. At 16 years of age, 150 adolescents (103 PiZ, 1 PiZ-, 1 PiS-, 45 PiSZ) were interviewed using a standardized questionnaire and asked to participate in an extensive lung function study including part or all of the following tests: FVC, FEV1 before and 15 min after four inhaled doses of salbutamol, TLC, RV

The anthology is a Festschrift for Bengt Lewan, consisting of essays written by his colleagues at the department at Lund university. The texts concern subjects that have been in focus for Lewan, foremost Italian culture.

Test scheduling and Test Access Mechanism (TAM)design are two important tasks in the development of a System-on-Chip (SOC)test solution.Previous test scheduling techniques assume a dedicated designed TAM which have the advantage of high exibility in the scheduling process. However,hardware verhead for implementing the TAM and additional routing is required of the TAMs.In this paper we propose a te
