A method is presented for building solvers for classes of multivariate polynomial equations. The method is based on solving an analogous template problem over a finite field, and then using the elimination order established for this problem for the original class of problems. A strength of this method is that this permits pivoting in the elimination. Solvers for several minimal problems in
Popular Abstract in Swedish Helicobacter pylori är en av de vanligaste infektionerna hos människan. H. pylori framodlades för första gången 1983 av Robin Warren och Barry Marshall. Bakterien ger en kronisk inflammation i magslemhinnan. H. pylori orsakar magsår och möjligheten att behandla sjukdomen med antibiotika har inneburit en revolution inom sjukvården. Hos flertalet sker infektionen i barndoHelicobacter pylori is one of the most common infections in man. The infection is often acquired during childhood and usually results in a chronic life-long inflammation in the gastric mucosa. The aim of our studies was to investigate the association between H. pylori seropositivity and the development of gastric and oesophageal carcinomas. Nested case-control studies were performed in the Malmö P
Popular Abstract in Swedish I takt med att analytiska dimensioneringsmetoder utvecklas ökar även behovet av att kunna bestämma mekaniska egenskaper hos materialen i överbyggnaden och terrassen. Utmattningssprickor orsakade av tung trafik, permanenta deformationer (spårbildning), termisk sprickbildning, ojämnheter, tjäle och reflektionssprickor är några av de dimensioneringskriterier som kan användThe advance of analytic (mechanistic) design methods increases the need for fundamental material properties. Fatigue cracking due to traffic loading, in combination with permanent deformation (rutting), thermal cracking, irregularities, frost heave and reflective cracking are some of the major criteria used when designing an asphalt concrete pavement. The objective of this Ph.D. project is to eva
Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med avhandlingen är att presentera en sociologisk analys av en "religionsfrihetssituation". Den grupp som särskilt berörs i avhandlingen är den invandrarde muslimska minoriteten i Sverige, en grupp som har vuxit avsevärt under de senaste decennierna. Muslimerna har invandrat till ett samhälle som länge präglades av religiös enhet, men som idag har utvecklats tillThis dissertation deals with the religious liberty situation of the Muslim minority in Sweden. The Muslim minority has grown considerably in recent decades as a consequence of labour and refugee immigration of a large scale, which has caused a change in Swedish society from an etnically, culturally and religously homogeneous situation to one of a significant heterogeneity. Sweden's way from unity
In this pilot study a new device for respiratory stimulation with undulating oscillations and high frequency vibrations via an air mattress was tested as an additional therapy in 12 preterm infants with recurrent apnoeic episodes. The mean birthweight of the study population was 1760 g and gestational age 31.1 weeks. it was shown that an oscillating air mattress is an effective additional mode of
The mucosal lymphocyte integrin alpha E(CD103)beta 7 is thought to be important for intraepithelial lymphocyte (IEL) localization or function. We cloned the murine integrin gene encoding alpha E, localized it to chromosome 11, and generated integrin alpha E-deficient mice. In alpha E-/- mice, intestinal and vaginal IEL numbers were reduced, consistent with the known binding of alpha E beta 7 to E-
It is generally difficult to analytically derive models describing the echo attenuation in pulsed gradient spin-echo (PGSE) experiments for even he simplest porous systems that are commonly studied-especially when the gradient pulse (delta) is of finite length compared to the timescale of the diffusion measurement (Delta). Consequently, various levels of approximation are used to evaluate PGSE ex
Objectives Exposure to aluminium compounds, such as fluorides in gaseous and particulate form, places people who work in potrooms at risk for respiratory symptoms. Workers in potrooms, however, also are exposed to a number of other air contaminants. In this study, we present the first report of a dose-response relationship after exposure to potassium aluminium tetrafluoride (KAlF4) and the influen
Student speech production is an essential part of language learning in the foreign-language classroom. The students usually have few opportunities to use the language outside the classroom, which underscores the importance of making good use of the time spent in the classroom. Much research has shown that learner output is necessary, or at least facilitative, in language acquisition. This claim fo
In this study critical load functions and target load functions of nitrogen and sulphur deposition with respect to acidity and minimum base cation to aluminium ratio were calculated with the SAFE model using three different averaging strategies: (1) averaging based on current forest generation, (2) averaging based on next generation and (3) averaging based on the entire simulation period. From the
It has been proposed that patterns of daily occupations that promote health or cause illness should be possible to identify. By describing patterns as consisting of main, hidden, and unexpected occupations, this study aimed to develop and to evaluate a process for analysing and characterising subjectively perceived patterns of daily occupations.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen har fokus på lungornas mekaniska egenskaper hos friska och vid akut lungskada och på metodutveckling för studier av lungmekanik. Kunskap om lungmekanik är av intresse inom intensivvården för att skräddarsy respirator-behandling och i lunglaboratoriet för diagnostik och utvärdering av patienter med olika typer av lungsjukdom. Vid respiratorbehandling kan föKnowledge about lung mechanics is of interest in intensive care to adjust mechanical ventilation and in the lung laboratory for diagnostics and evaluation of patients with various kinds of respiratory diseases. In mechanical ventilation a single inspiratory elastic pressure-volume (Pel/V) curve is difficult to interpret due to continuing re-expansion of collapsed lung units over a large pressure
Neisseria meningitidis (meningococcus) is an important cause of meningitis and sepsis. Currently, there is no effective vaccine against serogroup B meningococcal infection. Host defense against neisseriae requires the complement system (C) as indicated by the fact that individuals deficient in properdin or late C components (C6-9) have an increased susceptibility to recurrent neisserial infections
Over a 1-y period, 26 inpatients at the Jordan University Hospital in Amman were detected with bacteraemia (23 cases) or respiratory tract colonized with B. cepacia (3 cases). A combination of genetic identification and molecular typing has proved that all cases were caused by a single epidemic strain of B. cepacia genomovar IIIa. Nosocomial infections could be documented in 21/26 (81%) patients,
We have investigated the Raman-Auger crossover of the Mn 2p non-radiative decays in bulk MnO. For the highest kinetic energy transition in the Mn 2p3p3p decay, Raman behaviour is observed up to approximate to 3.4 eV above the resonance energy (maximum of the L-3 absorption). In the case of the 2p3p3d and 2p3d3d transitions a similar situation occurs up to approximate to 5 eV above the resonance en
