OBJECTIVE: Regular blood pressure control has been advocated for early detection and treatment of patients with hypertension. We aimed to study whether long-term survival rate is related to socioeconomic circumstances and biological factors among middle-aged men with screened new hypertension. METHODS: Of the 22 444 men who attended a general health examination in Malmo, Sweden during 1974-1984, i
When medieval archaeology was formed as an independent academic discipline at Lund University in the middle of the 1960s, town archaeology was a vital part representing one of the orders in feudal society. It was established as a recognizable discourse and a major arena for excavating medieval archaeology. The article deals with the following issues: What kind of epistemological currents have infl

Background and Objective: In this study a newly developed microprocessor controlled power regulation and thermometry system integrated with a diode laser (805 nm wavelength) was evaluated with respect to temperature distribution, effectiveness of regulation, and ability to predict temperature distributions by computer simulation. Study Design/Materials and Methods: Experiments were performed in gr
Objective. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) continues to be an important cause of morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs in the western world. Although smoking is an important trigger of COPD, other factors such as chronic inflammation and malnutrition are known to influence its development. Because coeliac disease (CD) is characterized both by dysregulated inflammation and malnutri

BACKGROUND: Lung mast cells are stereotypically divided into connective tissue (MCTC) and mucosal (MCT) mast cells. This study tests the hypothesis that each of these subtypes can be divided further into site-specific populations created by the microenvironment within each anatomic lung compartment. METHODS: To study mast cells under non-inflamed conditions surgical resections and bronchial and tr
The strong focus on decreasing carbon dioxide emissions due to limited natural resources of fossil fuel as well as alarming climate changes drives the research and development of our prime mover, the combustion engine, faster then ever. The minimum requirement is a power source with increased efficiency while emitting ultra low levels of hazardous local and regional emissions. The concept of Homog
This work presents an analysis of phase noise in the 1/f(2) region displayed by both single-ended and differential bipolar Colpitts oscillators. Very accurate and rigorous symbolic phase noise expressions are derived, enabling a deeper insight into the major mechanisms of phase noise generation, and providing new tools for design optimization. Phase noise expressions for the cross-coupled differen
A 15N tracing model was developed to analyse nitrous oxide (N2O) dynamics in terrestrial ecosystems, which build on previous tracing models for the quantification of the main mineral nitrogen (N) transformations and soil nitrite (NO2 -) dynamics. The N2O dynamics in the model are directly associated with three NO2 - sub-pools. Four pathways for N2O production in soil were considered in the model:
Introduction. This paper examines and synthesizes previous research in scientific collaboration, scholarly communication, scientific collaboratories, scientific disciplines, invisible colleges and virtual communities to identify factors that may impact the design, adoption and use of a collaboratory within librarianship and information science. Results. A taxonomy of factors that appear to impact
