The early medieval cult of saints has been the object of many illuminating studies during the past decades. However, one aspect in need of more research is the role of the cults in the building of early states in Europe, a phenomenon that is often, somewhat erroneously, referred to as the cult of national saints. The saints were powerful assets in the attempts of kings, dukes and bishops at achiev

Type II collagen is synthesized in the tympanic membrane during healing of a perforation. The time course and appearance of Type II collagen regrowth in the newly healed tympanic membrane is the subject of the present study.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling ger en introduktion till laser-plasma acceleratorer, vilket även utgör ämnet för de vetenskapliga artiklar som ingår i avhandlingen. Det är en ny typ av acceleratorer som utnyttjar mycket kraftfulla lasrar för att accelerera elektroner och protoner. Partikelacceleratorer används för att ge partiklar hög rörelseenergi, vilket kan utnyttjas för många olikThis thesis presents experimental results related to laser plasma accelerators. These rely on very different principles from conventional particle accelerators. They are able to accelerate particles over a very short distance and produce synchrotron x-rays at the same time, potentially providing a compact particle accelerator and x-ray source for many future applications. The laser pulses used in

Short noncoding RNAs known as microRNAs (miRNAs) control protein expression through the degradation of RNA or the inhibition of protein translation. The miRNAs influence a wide range of biologic processes and are often deregulated in cancer. This family of small RNAs constitutes potentially valuable markers for the diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic choices in prostate cancer (PCa) patients, as

Aim: To evaluate haemostatic effects and clinical outcome of oestrogen treatment of constitutionally tall stature in girls. Methods: We conducted a single-centre cohort study, 63 girls referred over a period of 15 years were investigated. The girls were given oestrogen treatment for constitutional tall stature at a median initial dose of 300 ug ethinyl estradiol/day and were consecutively examined
