Cytogenetic investigation of short-term cultures from two leiomyosarcomas revealed complex karyotypic changes in both cases. The first tumor, a subcutaneous leiomyosarcoma of the knee, had the karyotype 70-80,XY, +X, +Y, +1, +1, +2, +2, +3, +3, +4, +4, +7, +7, +8, +8, +9, +10, +15, +15, +16, +16, +18, +19, +20, +21, +21, +22, +22,t(?;5)(5;21)(?;q35p11;q11), t(?;5)(5;21)(?;q35p11;q11), +del(11)(q22

Aims: In a population of middle-aged women a survey was carried out to ascertain the prevalence of mental symptoms and psychotropic drug use, and further to investigate whether severe mental symptoms are associated with social situation, alcohol consumption, smoking, and physical health. Methods: All women (n510,766) aged 50-59 years and living in the Lund area were invited to the WHILA study, a h

The dissertation deals with how fine-dressed stone can serve as a historical source material. The aim is to show how the working of stone can be used to study the organization of mason's during medieval ages in östergötland. The purpose has also been to put light on a historical source material threatened to disappear thorugh weathering.

This study comprises a technical and economic comparison of three different processes for the production of fuel ethanol from pine. The processes were based on the same technical and economic assumptions. The main difference between the processes lies in the front end of each process, i.e. in the pretreatment of the raw material and in the hydrolysis of the hemicellulose and cellulose to sugars. T

The adsorption of monolayers of the pyridine-carboxylic acid monomers (isonicotinic acid, nicotinic acid, and picolinic acid) on rutile TiO2(1 1 0) has been studied by means of X-ray photoemission spectroscopy. An investigation of the O 1s spectra shows that the molecular carboxylic groups are deprotonated and, hence, that the molecules bind to the surface in a bidentate mode. Moreover, the bindin

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hjärtats skrifter är en undersökning av brevet som kommunikationsform under 1700-talet. Brevkulturen i 1700-talets Tyskland betraktas som ett av startskotten för vad som brukar kallas den moderna tiden. I denna studie granskas brevkulturens funktion och betydelse för det epistemiska skifte som äger rum under senare hälften av 1700-talet. Undersökningens utgångspunkt ärThis dissertation examines the correspondence of the 18th-century German authors Anna Louisa Karsch and Johann Wilhelm Ludwig Gleim. The main emphasis of the present study is to demonstrate how readings of Karsch's and Gleim's correspondence shed light on epistolary culture. Particular attention is paid to the notion of epistolary culture as a relatively unrestrained ?experimental setting? for bou

Inclusive jet production is studied in neutral current deep-inelastic positron-proton scattering at large four momentum transfer squared Q(2) > 150 GeV2 with the H1 detector at HERA. Single and double differential inclusive jet cross sections are measured as a function of Q(2) and of the transverse energy E-T of the jets in the Breit frame. The measurements are found to be well described by calcul

Architects design work sometimes originates from a simplified view of human demands and needs, which may result in environments that do not fulfill the users requirements. This thesis refers to five different case studies where the affected users were involved in the creation of their dwellings or working environment. The issue of the thesis is that participatory design creates environments which

En byggnads täthet kan kontrolleras genom att man utför en provtryckning, under vilken läckflödet genom en provtryckningsfläkt mäts. Rapporten innehåller matematiska modeller för en vidareutveckling av provtryckningsmetoden som utnyttjar den tryckgradient som tryckskillnaden inne/ute skapar.

This thesis will describe the clinical phenotypes, with emphasis on electrophysiology, in patients with different hereditary eye diseases and to further evaluate and modify the mfVEP technique for clinical use. Bothnia Dystrophy is a tapetoretinal disorder with a mutation in the RLBP1 gene. Early in the disease the fundus may have a normal appearance. The full-field ERG demonstrates an absence of

A new method for noise reduction using spatiotemporal smoothing is presented in this paper. The method is developed especially for reducing the noise that arises when acquiring video sequences with a camera under very dim light conditions. The work is inspired by research on the vision of nocturnal animals and the adaptive spatial and temporal summation that is prevalent in the visual systems of t

Intentional communication is perceptually based and about attentional objects. Three attention mechanisms are distinguished: scanning, attention attraction, and attention-focusing. Attention-focusing directs the subject towards attentional objects. Attention-focusing is goal-governed (controlled by stimulus) or goal-intended (under the control of the subject). Attentional objects are perceptually

A third workshop on small-x physics, within the Small-x Collaboration, was held in Hamburg in May 2004 with the aim of overviewing recent theoretical progress in this area and summarizing the experimental status.
