Highly resolved sediment stratigraphic and stable isotope records from a lake in south-central Sweden give evidence of relatively humid summers during the wide-spread cold event at c. 8200 cal. BP. A transient lake-level rise led to increased catchment erosion followed by enhanced phytoplankton production and disturbance of the Chara-dominated algal community. An associated increase in the deposit

High spin states in the neutron deficient nucleus Te-109 have been populated with the Ni-58 + Fe-54 reaction at 220 MeV and investigated through gamma-spectroscopy methods at the GASP spectrometer making use of reaction channel selection with the ISIS Si-ball. The level scheme has been extended up to an excitation energy of approximate to 12.1 MeV. The spins and parities of the observed levels are

This paper has two main objectives: (a) to put the vast body of research on Swedish as a second language (SSL) into one coherent framework; and (b) to test the predictions deriving from processability theory (Pienemann, 1998a, 1998b) for Swedish against this empirical database. We will survey the 14 most prominent research projects on SSL covering wide areas of syntax and morphology in longitudina

En jämförelse mellan den briottiska tv-serien Traffik (1989) och den amerikanska filmversionen Traffic (2000).

OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether application of insulation wool adversely affects lung volumes and increases the occurrence of symptoms of airway irritation. METHODS: Data from nationwide health check ups in 1981-93 of male construction workers born in 1955 or later were used to investigate cross sectional (n = 96,004) and longitudinal (n = 26,298) associations between lung volumes, vital capaci

Popular Abstract in Swedish Sedan årtionden ökar antalet frakturer över hela världen, och i alla ålderskategorier. Frakturer leder ofta till längre tids funktionsinskränkning, sämre livskvalitet och ibland till döden. Projektet ?Malmö Förebyggande Medicin?, an populationsbaserad, prospektiv studie av 22 444 män, medelålder 44 år, och 10 902 kvinnor, medelålder 50 år, är väl lämpad för studier av vThe number of fractures is increasing worldwide, and fractures frequently cause long-term disability, impaired quality of life and sometimes death. The Malmö Preventive Project, a population-based, prospective study, consisting of 22 444 men, mean age 44 and 10 902 women, mean age 50 years, provides data for evaluation of common public health conditions, such as fracture and diabetes. The follow-u

Nausea and emesis are common side effects of opioid drugs administered for pain relief in cancer patients. The aim of this study was to compare the anti-emetic efficacy and safety of ondansetron, placebo and metoclopramide in the treatment of opioid-induced nausea and emesis (OIE) in cancer patients. This was a multinational, multicentre, double-blind, parallel group study in which cancer patients

Popular Abstract in Swedish Av de industrier som kom att spela en viktig roll för den starka ekonomiska utvecklingen i Sverige från 1890-talet och framåt befann sig den moderna verkstadsindustrin i frontlinjen. Syftet med denna avhandling är att diskutera hur de teknologiska förändringar som präglade den andra industriella revolutionens inledande fas påverkade den relativa efterfrågan på yrkesskicSweden experienced a remarkable economic growth in the period 1890-1930, to a large extent due to a very successful adaptation of core elements of the Second Industrial Revolution such as electricity and mechanical engineering. Theoretically this thesis aims at discussing changes in the balance between the relative demand for skilled and unskilled labour during the first phase of the Second Indust

Popular Abstract in Swedish Familjen Mosasauridae omfattar en grupp storvuxna (3-13 m), vattenlevande reptiler som under ett geologiskt sett kort tidsavsnitt i kritperioden, om ca 25 miljoner år, snabbt tog över positionen som topp-predatorer i haven. Fossil av mosasaurier dyker först upp i lager avsatta för ca 90 miljoner år sedan. Under de följande årmiljonerna fick gruppen en närmast global utbMarine strata of latest early Campanian age (sensu germanico) in the Kristianstad Basin, Skåne (Scania), southern Sweden, have yielded a diverse mosasaur fauna comprising six to eight taxa, including Tylosaurus ivoensis, Clidastes propython, Hainosaurus minor n. sp., Halisaurus sternbergii, Platecarpus cf. somenensis, Platecarpus? sp., Dollosaurus sp., and possibly yet another mosasaurine or halis

Micronutrient concentrations in foliage and stemwood (including bark) of six European tree species (Betula pendula Roth., Quercus robur L., Fraxinus excelsior L., Fagus sylvatica L., Tilia cordata Mill. and Picea abies (L.) Karst.) planted on the same type of soil at six sites in three different countries were studied. Micronutrient concentrations in foliage were considerably higher than in stemwo

Urine sediments from 20 patients with urinary bladder carcinoma, and from 11 healthy individuals were investigated for their content of Lea and Leb active glycolipids. The investigation was restricted to blood group phenotype Le (a-b+). All individuals exhibited both Lea- and Leb-active glycolipids. In healthy individuals the ratio Lea/Leb was less than 1 in 10 out of 11 cases, whereas in patients

The aim of the study was to investigate the feasibility of mobilizing Philadelphia chromosome negative (Ph-) blood stem cells (BSC) with intensive chemotherapy and lenograstim (G-CSF) in patients with CML in first chronic phase (CP1). During 1994-1999 12 centers included 37 patients 556 years. All patients received 6 months' IFN, stopping at median 36 (1-290) days prior to the mobilization chemoth
