Popular Abstract in Swedish Inflammerat brosk i halsen. Rethosta eller andningsbesvär. Autoimmuna sjukdomar uppstår när immunförsvaret angriper och bryter ner den egna kroppens vävnader. Då kroppen infekteras av bakterier eller virus är immunförsvarets ökade aktivitet däremot en normal skyddsmekanism. Exempel på vanligt förekommande autoimmuna sjukdomar är diabetes, reumatoid artrit (RA) och multRelapsing polychondritis (RP) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are autoimmune diseases where an inappropriate immune response destroys cartilage. In RP, the ears, larynx, nose and joints are affected, while the most prominent sign of RA is arthritis. For ethical reasons many experiments can not be performed in man, and consequently animal models are needed. To investigate the complexity of the tissu

This book commemorates the 65th birthday of Karl Johan Åström, who is professor in Automatic Control at Lund Institute of Technology. Karl Johan Åström is one of the leading researchers of the world in automatic control. The contributions are chosen to illustrate some of the areas where Karl Johan Åström has been active in his research. The idea of the papers is also to point out new directions wi

Viruses are ubiquitous in all environments where life is present, also in aquatic environments. The fish-pathogenic virus, Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV), has generally been studied because it causes high mortality amongst hatchery-reared salmonids in aqua culture facilities around the world. Today, no efficient vaccine is available to protect the fish from becoming infected. The viru

This book takes up three aspects of social change in Sweden. By looking at changes in the labor market, changes in education and changes dealing with long-term sickness during the years surrounding the turn of the century, Antoinette Hetzler captures a process of growing exclusion that has particular importance for Swedish women. One is left questioning if the transition of the welfare state in S

This dissertation investigates the oscillation part of the level density for trapped fermions. Analytical so-called trace formulae have been known for the two theoretically important potentials, the spherical cavity and harmonic oscillator, since more than thirty years. In this thesis we explore the regime in between those two limits, motivated by recent experiments with cold atomic Fermi gases. W

Logopedi definieras som läran om språk-, röst- och talstörningar och deras behandling. Detta är den första heltäckande läroboken i logopedi på svenska och består av 40 kapitel av 44 olika författare. I en introducerande del beskrivs funktion och utveckling med anknytning till de fyra logopediska huvudområdena röst, språk, tal och sväljning. Därefter beskrivs karakteristik, diagnostik och interven

Evaluation of the effects on road safety of an incident warning system on the IP5 road in Portugal was carried out. Video data at two sites was collected before and after the activation of the warning system. Conflict observations revealed that there was no major change in safety between the before and the after period.
