Neuronal apoptosis after brief and prolonged seizures

Evidence has accumulated that apoptotic cell death contributes to brain damage following experimental seizures. A substantial number of degenerating neurons within limbic regions display morphological features of apoptosis following prolonged seizures evoked by systemic or local injections of kainic acid, systemic injections of pilocarpine and sustained stimulation of the perforant path. Although

Factor XIII and tissue transglutaminase antibodies in coeliac and inflammatory bowel disease.

issue transglutaminase (tTg) has been identified as an autoantigen in coeliac disease (CD). There is a marked homology between different forms of transglutaminase, such as tTg and coagulation factor XIII. We compared titres of both IgA- and IgG-antibodies against these two antigens in 20 CD patients, 20 endomysial antibody (EMA)-negative controls and a group with inflammatory bowel disease (34 wit

Fast one-dimensional photonic crystal modulators for the terahertz range

Optically controlled one-dimensional photonic crystal structures for the THz range are studied both theoretically and experimentally. A GaAs:Cr layer constitutes a defect in the photonic crystals studied; its photoexcitation by 800 nm optical femtosecond pulses leads to the modulation of the THz beam. Since the THz field can be localized in the photoexcited layer of the photonic crystal, the inter

Risk of treatment of peripheral arterial disease is related to inflammation-sensitive plasma proteins : a prospective cohort study

BACKGROUND: Studies in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) have reported an association between inflammatory markers and severity of disease or worsening of symptoms. However, few have studied the prognostic significance of inflammatory markers in asymptomatic subjects, measured many years before the onset of symptomatic PAD requiring treatment (trPAD).MATERIAL AND METHODS: Five inflam

Properties of Materials at High Temperatures Steel

The objectives of the technical committee are to identify those properties and characteristics, which are of importance, survey the existing knowledge, evaluate the data and the relevant literature, suggest activity in areas not already covered and provide facilities for the dissemination of information in papers and by discussion. In this report the main features of the behaviour of steel at high

Fallbeskrivning. Endometrios orsakade kolonileus, uretärobstruktion och hypertoni

Laparoscopy and palpation offer only a rough estimate of the extent of endometriosis. Consequently, endometriosis involving the bowels and urinary tract is under-diagnosed. Bowel obstruction and retroperitoneal endometriosis with obstruction of the ureter are uncommon conditions, but awareness of them is important. Ureteric obstruction develops slowly from periureteral fibrosis and often results i

The aim of this thesis is to show how modal particles can be integrated into a modular description of language where grammar and pragmatics are seen as two independent but interacting modules. The modular approach is chosen because of the problems connected with a functional approach. On the syntactic level, it is assumed that modal particles are XPs. The fact that modal particles cannot occur alo

Band-edge diagrams for strained III-V semiconductor quantum wells, wires, and dots

We have calculated band-edge energies for most combinations of zinc blende AlN, GaN, InN, GaP, GaAs, InP, InAs, GaSb, and InSb in which one material is strained to the other. Calculations were done for three different geometries (quantum wells, wires, and dots) and mean effective masses were computed in order to estimate confinement energies. For quantum wells, we have also calculated band-edges f
