A noninvasive 133-xenon washout technique was used to evaluate the ventilation of the paranasal sinuses in healthy subjects and in patients with sinus disease. A mixture of air and 133-xenon is insufflated into the nasal cavities and passage into the sinuses is facilitated by a pressure increase created by letting the subjects inflate a balloon. A scintillation camera allowing single photon emissi
Water column and sediment profiles of plutonium, americium, thorium and uranium have been obtained in the superanoxic Framvaren fjord, southern Norway. The concentrations of bomb test fallout Pu, Am as well as 'dissolved' Th in the bottom water are the highest recorded in the marine environment. The behaviour of the actinides in the anoxic water mass is to a large extent governed by the behaviour
Risk analysis and intervention planning are important in fire prevention and risk management strategies. This study has shown that it is possible to use fire safety engineering models to estimate the development of fires on a realistic scale, and the corresponding requirement for extinguishing media. Data from the London Fire Brigade (UK) were used to investigate a possible correlation between the
Although there is a fairly large number of books and articles concerning the validation of technical measurement systems, there are only a few which take into account the whole measurement system consisting of both technical and non-technical aspects. A measurement system comprises both the measurement process and the human being who conducts the measurement. In this way, the human being may be a
I denna uppsats gör jag två saker. För det första ger jag en kortfattad beskrivning över kasussammanfallet i fornsvenska. För det andra diskuterar jag orsakerna till kasussammanfallet. Jag identifierar två viktiga tidsperioder då kasussystemet förändras. Den första inträffar kring 1300 och den andra kring 1450, åtminstone i Mälardalen. Jag kallar den första för Lilla katastrofen och den andra för
During the 1700's lifestyle and material culture varied a lot between towns and rural areas. The aim for this thesis is to study how this difference between town and countryside emerges and how an identity as a burgher or farmer will manifest itself in the material culture. An important question is if it is possible to find a particular urban lifestyle and if that is the case, what it looks like.
One of the major issues in the pharmaceutical industry today is the cost of development and validation of the production of the active pharmaceutical ingredients. The development, optimization and validation of a production plant have been dominated by an extensive experimental approach. The large amount of experimental work and reluctance for changing existing processes has caused the pharmaceut
Salience approaches are a widely used theory when studying political behavior on how political party’s emphases certain policy issues more than other issues and therefore, defining certain topics as more important to the party than other policies. One of the most important documents studying policy salience is the election manifestos parties present to the voters, containing intentions and views o
Rapportens syftar till att granska förekomsten av eventuellt signifikant samband mellan resultatmanipulering och börsintroduktion för svenska företag samt därmed bidra till att reducera det rådande forskningsgapet på den svenska marknaden. Dessutom ämnades eventuella utmärkande egenskaper för företag som manipulerar resultatet på svenska marknaden att studeras, genom tillämpning av modifierade Jon
Uppsatsens mål är att utifrån ett feministiskt och postkolonialt perspektiv belysa den diskursiva konceptualisering av integration som artikuleras i jämlikhetskommissionens betänkande. Vidare är målet att undersöka vilka idéer om det svenska medborgarskapet som betänkandets konceptualisering av integration bygger på och ger upphov till. Genom att belysa och undersöka detta ämnar uppsatsen begripli
Under 2017 återaktiverades totalförsvarsplikten för alla svenska medborgare. Situationen startade igång diskussioner kring jämställdhetsintegrering eftersom Sverige porträtterar sig själva som en modern, jämställd, nation. Utöver detta är Sverige en medlemsstat av Förenta Nationerna (FN) och måste förhålla sig till FN:s säkerhetsrådsresolutioner. Därmed behöver staten nationellt implementera Resol
During the late 20th century the bookmarket has undergone several major changes. Economic difficulties, tax reforms and countenance politics have made the market what it is today. Best selling books have larger share of the market at the cost of higher quality literature and this may result in fewer published titles. Poetry is a genre that is representative for quality literature and is considered
