Essays on Institutions and Institutional Change

This thesis consists of three essays discussing institutional change and its effects. It distinguishes between economic and political institutions, and highlights the need for broader empirical efforts that consider interactions among different types of institutions. The first essay titled Effect of Trade and Political Institutions on Economic Institutions explores the relationship between trade a

Very low phase noise RF quadrature oscillator architecture

An architecture for RF quadrature oscillators is presented, which, according to simulations, shows a figure of merit some 20 dB higher than that of other quadrature oscillators. The new quadrature oscillator compares favourably even with a state-of-the-art design of the popular negative-resistance differential oscillator

Sågtandande polyper en dold men vanlig orsak till kolorektal cancer : Serrated polyps is a hidden but common cause of colorectal cancer

Konceptet att sågtandande polyper kan leda till kolorektal cancer är relativt nytt. Sågtandade polyper orsakar upp till en tredjedel av all sporadisk kolorektal cancer. Trots detta är kunskaperna om sågtandade polypers etiologi, incidens, prevalens och naturalförlopp ofullständiga. Sågtandade polyper är svåra att identifiera och ta bort endoskopiskt. Endoskopister och patologer måste ha kunska

Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopic Methods for the Assessment of Metabolic Functions in the Diseased Brain.

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a non-invasive technique that can be used to detect and quantify multiple metabolites. This chapter will review some of the applications of MRS to the study of brain functions. Typically, (1)H-MRS can detect metabolites reflecting neuronal density and integrity, markers of energy metabolism or inflammation, as well as neurotransmitters. The complexity of th

Structure and Interactions of a Dimeric Variant of sHIP, a Novel Virulence Determinant of Streptococcus pyogenes.

Streptococcus pyogenes is one of the most significant bacterial pathogens in the human population mostly causing superficial and uncomplicated infections (pharyngitis and impetigo) but also invasive and life-threatening disease. We have previously identified a virulence determinant, protein sHIP, which is secreted at higher levels by an invasive compared to a non-invasive strain of S. pyogenes. Th

Work experiences among attendees of day centres for people with psychiatric disabilities.

It is possible that people with psychiatric disabilities who visit day centres have previous work experiences that may be seen as resources for their current engagement in day centre activities. Research in this respect seems to lack, however.

Risk prediction by genetic risk scores for coronary heart disease is independent of self-reported family history.

Genetic risk scores (GRSs) have been associated with coronary heart disease (CHD) in large studies. We asked whether expanding an established 27-variant GRS (GRS27) to a 50-variant GRS (GRS50) improved CHD prediction and whether GRSs are independent of self-reported family history of CHD.
