Regulation of cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 2 expression-a potential anti-tumor mechanism.

The cysteinyl leukotrienes receptors (CysLTRs) are implicated in many different pathological conditions, such as inflammation and cancer. We have previously shown that colon cancer patients with high CysLT(1)R and low CysLT(2)R expression demonstrate poor prognosis. Therefore, we wanted to investigate ways for the transcriptional regulation of CysLT(2)R, which still remains to be poorly understood

Statistical models for on-line monitoring of cardboard quality properties

A statistical study of data containing observations of process and quality variables from the SCA paper mill in Munksund, Sweden, is presented. The emphasis in this analysis has been on modelling the laboratory collected paper quality variables by means of the data available on-line, during production. The primary tool for prediction, or estimation at non observed time instants, of variables was

What Drives Exports? Empirical Evidence at the Firm Level

The aim of this thesis is to the understand how firms engage in exporting, particularly in consideration of three aspects—product type, past trade experience, and investments in innovation activities. It consists of one introductory chapter and three independent papers relating to determinants of firms’ exporting. Chapter 2 investigates the distance effect on the exporting of homogeneous and diff

Chimney grafts preserve visceral flow and allow safe stenting of juxtarenal aortic occlusion.

OBJECTIVE: Chimney grafts have proven useful for urgent endovascular repair of juxtarenal aortic aneurysms. Stenting of juxtarenal aortic occlusive disease is not routinely advocated due to the risk of visceral artery obstruction. We report on the potential applicability of chimney grafts in 10 patients with juxtarenal aortic stenosis or occlusion. To our best knowledge, chimney grafts have not be

Time Use among People with Psychiatric Disabilities: Implications for Practice.

Topic: This paper reviewed the current literature regarding time use among people with psychiatric disabilities. Purpose: The purpose was to investigate what characterizes time use, occupational balance and occupational patterns among people with psychiatric disabilities, how time use relates to health in this group, and how time use can be used in research designs and addressed in assessments and

Development and application of photofragmentation laser-induced fluorescence for visualization of hydrogen peroxides

Popular Abstract in Swedish Utveckling och tillämpning av laserfragmentationsteknik för visualisering av väteperoxider Laserinducerad fluorescens är en etablerad optisk mätmetod för kemiskt specifik detektion och avbildning med tillämpning inom fysik, kemi och biologi. Tekniken bygger på att molekyler ska absorbera laserljus och sedan spontant sända ut ljus som kan detekteras. Det finns dock mångaThe work presented in this thesis is mainly motivated by the need for an optical diagnostic technique which can be used to visualize hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in its gas phase. Due to the lack of bound electronic states, H2O2 cannot be detected using laser-induced fluorescence based on electronic excitation. Absorption in the ultraviolet leads to photodissociation. Thus a technique called photofrag

Konsten att öppna för konversation

Konsthistorikern Grant Kester har formulerat en dialogisk estetik som tar fasta på konsten som en öppen, kollektiv sfär. I boken ”Conversation pieces” lyfter han fram konstnärer och filosofer som beskrivit eller förverkligat konsten som en dialog.

To tell or not to tell? Youth's responses to unwanted Internet experiences

This study is one of the first that investigated youth’s response to unwanted Internet experiences, not only for those youth who were bothered or distressed but for all youth who reported the experience. Three types of response were examined: telling someone about the incident and ending the unwanted situation by active or passive coping. Responses to the following unwanted Internet experiences we

Tightly Coupled Positioning and Multipath Radio Channel Tracking

Radio based localization is an active research topic with a wide range of applications. In this paper, we focus on localization of a radio receiver equipped with an inertial measurement unit. The localization is performed while simultaneously constructing a map of the small scale fading pattern in the local radio environment. The map in our case is a ray-trace-based multipath channel model. This s
