Abstract in UndeterminedThe medical technology (medtech) industry in Sweden is situated withina complex innovation ecosystem, in which various stakeholders from the public,private and academic sectors need to collaborate to meet demands on effective andeffi cient healthcare. Demographics are changing and those in need of healthcare arenot only larger in numbers than ever but they are also more kno

On film and literature as marketing devices in the Southern Swedish town of Ystad.

Increasing soft error rates for semiconductor devices manu- factured in later technologies enforces the use of fault tolerant techniques such as Roll-back Recovery with Checkpointing (RRC). However, RRC introduces time overhead that increases the completion (execution) time. For non-real-time systems, research have focused on optimizing RRC and shown that it is possible to find the optimal number

This article deals with the question of heteronormativity, or more precisely, how heteronormativity pertains to the reception of the Swedish film by Lukas Moodysson, Show Me Love (Fucking Åmål).

Popular Abstract in Swedish Fysiologiska och biokemiska processer i den levande kroppen kan studeras mha spårämnestekniken positronemissions tomografi (PET). Den bildgivande tekniken PET kräver radionuklider som sönderfaller genom att sända ut en positron. Positronen är antimateria till elektronen. När positronen har en mycket låg rörelseenergi och träffar på en elektron, ombildas deras vilomassorPositron emission tomography (PET) is a tracer technique used for quantitative in vivo studies of physiological and biochemical processes. Because of the use of positron-emitting radionuclides such as 11-C, 13-N, 15-O and 18-F, which are isotopes of the biologically ubiquitous elements, it is possible to label radiopharmaceuticals which trace biochemical processes precisely. In order to be able to

Popular Abstract in Swedish Att få inopererat en höft- eller knäprotes är numera ett vanligt ingrepp. Under 80-talet visade svenska och utländska studier att 10-15% av de patienter som genomgick en sådan höftoperation drabbades av försämrad njurfunktion efter operationen. Denna försämring var övergående men kunde vara allvarlig för patienten, och kostsam för sjukvården, under den tid den kvarstod.Total hip replacement (THR) is a common procedure, generally performed in elderly persons. Previous studies indicated that the use of isoxazolyl penicillins could induce a transient post-operative renal dysfunction in these patients. By measuring urinary levels of markers for glomerular (albumin, IgG) and tubular (protein HC) function we studied the influence of systemic cloxacillin, the gentamic

Glucosinolates are natural plant products that function in the defense toward herbivores and pathogens. Plant defense is regulated by multiple signal transduction pathways in which salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid, and ethylene function as signaling molecules. Glucosinolate content was analyzed in Arabidopsis wild-type plants in response to single or combinatorial treatments with methyljasmonate

The project justifies itself from increasing Europeanizing of the building market, new the possibilities of communication, mobility and occupation, which offer the European Union to humans and enterprise. Simultaneous substantial deficits are to be deplored in all countries involved in the vocational further training in the building sector. The project wants to make a contribution to: Improvement

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund Järn (med den kemiska beteckningen Fe, från latinets ferrum) är känt för de flesta som en beståndsdel i till exempel stål. Det många inte vet är att järn är nödvändigt för liv, så som det ser ut på jorden idag. Men det finns en annan sida av myntet: järn kan nämligen också vara giftigt. Som de allra flesta känner till rostar järn i närvaro av syre och vatten.Patients suffering from the deadly progressive neurodegenerative disease Friedreich's ataxia have reduced levels of expression of the protein frataxin. Yeast frataxin has been extensively studied in vitro, and has been shown to deliver iron to heme and iron-sulfur cluster biosynthesis, as well as to oligomerize in the presence of iron. In this dissertation metal-dependent oligomerization of fratax
