Lymphatics from the human superficial groin removed at operation in 21 patients (one with lymphedema) were examined in vitro. Histochemically no nerves were identified with either specific catecholamine fluorescence or immunoreactivity to tyrosine hydroxylase or dopamine beta-hydroxylase. Ring preparations of the lymphatics were mounted in tissue baths and isometric induced contractions were recor

Following previous electrochemical investigations of cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH), the present investigation reports on the initial screening of the electrochemistry of three new CDHs, two from the white rot basidiomycetes Trametes villosa and Phanerochaete sordida and one from the soft rot ascomycete Myriococcum thermophilum, for their ability to directly exchange electrons with 10 different al

Purpose: To describe the clinical phenotype of the complete type of X-linked congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB1) with different types of mutations in the NYX gene. Methods: The clinical and genetic data from 18 male patients with eight different mutations from two ophthalmological institutes were reviewed. The variability in refractive error, reduced visual acuity and full-field electror

The structure of Sn-105 has been investigated through the Cr-50(Ni-58, 2pn) reaction at a beam energy of 210 MeV. In addition to an extension of the spherical level scheme, a regular sequence of dipole transitions has been found. The experimental results are in agreement with the prediction of Tilted Axis Cranking calculations, which satisfactorily explain the properties of the band.

Allports and Ross (1967) Intrinsic and Extrinsic scales and Batsons and Schoenrades (1991b) Quest scale are re-analyzed from a unidimensional perspective by using the Rasch measurement model (RM). The RM of choice, Rating scale analysis, offers an alternative scaling procedure to Factor analysis. The benefit by using RM, is that the results can be interpreted as an acquired step-by-step process. T

Försäkringskassans handläggare ska avgöra om en individ kan utföra sina arbetsuppgifter eller är i behov av stödåtgärder för att klara sitt arbete. Handläggarna behöver information om i vilken grad sjukdomen eller skadan påverkar funktionsförmågan och möjligheten till arbetsåtergång. De upplever dock ofta att det medicinska underlaget de har tillgång till i form av läkarintyg är ofullständigt. När

Popular Abstract in Swedish Förekomsten av typ 1 (insulinberoende) diabetes före 15 års ålder har ökat under de senaste åren (Fig. 1) och barnen är allt yngre vid insjuknandet. Sjukdomen anses vara autoimmun, vilket innebär att kroppens eget immunförsvar angriper de insulinproducerande ?-cellerna i bukspottkörteln. En ärftlig benägenhet, som fr.a. är kopplad till s.k. vävnadsantigen på cellerna, mThe intention of this thesis was to investigate autoimmune markers for type 1 diabetes, together with signs of enterovirus infections during the pre- and perinatal period of life, and their possible association with the development of diabetes during childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood. We found that: 1. Newborns with ABO immunization, linked in epidemiological studies with heightened diab

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund När en kärlskada uppstår är det viktigt att blödningen snabbt kan stoppas. Detta åstadkomms genom att koagulationssystemet bildar en blodpropp vid skadestället. Von Willebrand faktorn (VWF) är ett stort protein som cirkulerar i blodet. Detta protein ingår, tillsammans med blodplättarna, i koagulationssystemets första fas. När ett kärl skadas binder VWF (som seVon Willebrand factor (VWF) is synthesized and secreted by endothelial cells into the plasma as a series of multimers. VWF induces the formation of platelet plugs at sites of vascular injury and high shear stress. Biological activity is dependent on multimeric size, which is regulated in plasma by the VWF-cleaving protease ADAMTS13. Severe ADAMTS13 deficiency is associated with thrombotic thromboc

There currently exists legislation within Europe banning the use of dyestuffs based on certain carcinogenic amine compounds. Currently a test method exists that is used by the industry (CEN ISO TS 17234 based on DIN 53316). This is able to detect twenty of the compounds listed by the legislation but is not validated for the recently added 2-methoxyaniline and is unsuitable for analysis of -Aminoaz

In Sweden today, power production with bioenergy systems is more costly than with fossil energy systems. New technology under development, such as integrated gasification and combined cycle technology (IGCC), and reduced biomass costs would improve the competitiveness of bioenergy systems. The CO2 mitigation costs are lower for biomass systems using IGCC technology than for natural gas systems usi

This paper presents a new three-phase liquid-phase microextraction (LPME) strategy for extraction and preconcentration of salbutamol (SB) and terbutaline (TB) from aqueous samples, including urine. The drugs were extracted from I I ml of aqueous sample (source phase; SP) into an organic phase with microliter volume located inside the pores of a polypropylene hollow fiber, and then back-extracted i

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den dramatiska samhällsomvandlingen i Öst- och Centraleuropa 1989-91 förändrade radikalt förutsättningarna för Europas politiska och ekonomiska liv. Den politiska och militära uppdelningen upphörde, gamla stater föll sönder och nya tillkom. I vårt närområde, Östersjöområdet, har förändringarna varit mer genomgripande än på många andra håll. Interaktionen mellan områdetsThe geopolitical transformation after 1989 had radical territorial consequences in almost all parts of East-Central Europe. In the Baltic Sea Area alone, five new states were formed. The process of European integration became a priotity on the agenda. The concept of integration describes a process of uniting two or more entities. Interaction (flows of goods, people and messages) must be seen as a
