Popular Abstract in Swedish Stroke utgör den tredje vanligaste dödsorsaken i västvärlden och är dessutom huvudorsak till långvarigt handikapp hos vuxna individer. Det stora antalet överlevande men handikappade individer utgör ett omfattande problem för samhället inte bara i form av ekonomiska resurser utan även vad gäller personliga trauma. Den kliniska termen stroke omfattar patologiska tillståndStroke is the most common life-threatening neurological disease and ranks as the third leading cause of death in major industrialized countries. It is also the leading cause of serious long-term disability and about sixty percent of survivors have disabilities in their extremities. Recovery of certain neurological functions occurs over time, which has been attributed to endogenous restorative proc

Propane ammoxidation to acrylonitrile over rutile-type vanadia catalysts is discussed regarding phase cooperation and site isolation effects. Compared with the pure phases, biphasic catalysts with both similar to SbVO4 and alpha -Sb2O4 are considerably more selective to the formation of acrylonitrile. It is demonstrated that cooperation between the phases during the calcination of the catalyst and

Danmarks prioritering av EU-utvidgningen under ordförandeskapet i EU:s ministerråd.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Distinktionen mellan offentligt och privat är en djupt rotad princip för organisering av samhället och dess olika sfärer, såväl inom stater som internationellt. Ett exempel på detta ser vi i utformningen av det internationella försvaret för mänskliga rättigheter som byggts upp sedan det andra världskrigets slut. Här syns distinktionen särskilt tydligt med avseende på atThe theory and practice of international relations are replete with dilemmas related to the distribution of responsibility for human rights protection. Institutionalized notions of public and private empower and shape knowledge of what the spheres of responsibility signify for different kinds of actors. This study examines how the public-private distinction is manifested in controversy concerning

To investigate the role of protein kinase C delta (PKC delta) in angiotensin II-induced facilitation mechanisms of hypoxic neuronal damage and whether candesartan, an AT1 receptor antagonist, can suppress these mechanisms, we performed in vitro experiments which were free from vascular components using PC12 cells under hypoxic (12 h)/reoxygenation (0-48 h) conditions. Angiotensin II apparently inc

Kritisk granskning av det svenska mottagandet av Martin Scorseses Kristi sista frestelse ((The Last Temptation of Christ, 1988).

For a cathode duct of a proton-exchange membrane fuel cell, a three-dimensional analysis method is further developed to include two-phase, multicomponent gas and heat transport processes. A set of momentum, heat transport, and gas species equations is solved for the whole duct by coupled source terms and variable thermophysical properties. The effects of the electrochemical reactions on the heat g

In this paper, a new frequency offset correction approach for OFDM is proposed to track a wider range of offsets than conventional proposals, without devoting specific pilot symbols for synchronization. This can be attained since, in coherent OFDM, channel estimation is usually performed employing pilot-symbol assisted-modulation (PSAM), based on inserting known symbols in the time-frequency grid.

The effects of genetic variation on molecular functions predisposing to type 2 diabetes are still largely unknown. Here, in a specifically designed diabetes model, we couple separate gene loci to mechanisms of P-cell pathology. Niddm1i is a major glucose-controlling 16-Mb region in the diabetic GK rat that causes defective insulin secretion and corresponds to loci in humans and mice associated wit

A control system for pneumatic variable valve actuation has been designed, implemented and tested in a single cylinder test engine with valve actuators provided by Cargine Engineering AB. The design goal for the valve control system was to achieve valve lifts between 2 and 12 mm over an engine speed interval of 300 to 2500 rpm. The control system was developed using LabView and implemented on the

Popular Abstract in Swedish Som ett skepp uti vilda havet, den kristna församlingen i ärkebiskop Laurentius Petris verk I 1593 års Uppsala mötes "förening om läran, ceremonier och kyrkotukt" finns följande avsnitt : Thernäst bejake och vederkännes vi oss alldeles vele holle vidh the Apostoliske, Niceniske och Athanasii symbola, såsom och vidh then äldste, rätte och oförrandrede Ausburgiske confeThe aim of this thesis is to present the ecclesiology of Laurentius Petri, a former student at Wittenberg who was archbishop of Uppsala from 1531 to his death 1573. He had a decisive role in the founding of the Church of Sweden, especially through his Swedish Church Ordinance(1571). Nevertheless most of his seventy-three writings are little known and have been rarely studied. Chapter one st

Agonist-induced activation of smooth muscle involves a rise in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration and sensitization of myosin light chain phosphorylation to Ca(2+). Sr(2+) can enter through Ca(2+) channels, be sequestered and released from sarcoplasmic reticulum, and replace Ca(2+) in activation of myosin light chain phosphorylation. Sr(2+) cannot replace Ca(2+) in facilitation of agonist-activate
