Physiology and Pharmacology of C-fibres in the rabbit eye

C-fibre neuropeptides, such as tachykinins and calcitonin-gene related peptide (CGRP), play an important role in neurogenic inflammation. The present work deals with five different aspects of the physiology and pharmacology of C-fibres. 1) Tachykinin receptor antagonists of peptide and non-peptide nature have been employed to identify the tachykinin receptors of the rabbit iris as NK1 and NK3 type

A Braided View of a Knotty Story

Periodic orbits of 3-d dynamical systems admitting a Poincaré section can be described as braids. This characterisation can be transported to the Poincaré section and Poincaré map, resulting in the braid type. Information from braid types allows to estimate bounds for the topological entropy of the map while revealing detailed orbit information from the original system, such as the orbits tha

Trick or treatment. Brokering biotech.

This chapter focuses on technology-brokers and inventors who operate in a medical context. It aims to discuss how relationships between the actors involved affect the possibility of transforming innovations into consumables, and to describe the kind of social work needed to successfully make this transformation. The chapter explores some of those tricks by using the concept 'net work' when discuss

The positive impact of negative role models

The attitude of teachers towards students can vary substantially in relation to different factors, such as educational background, pedagogical training, teaching methods, etc. In this paper, we explore the impact of negative role-models on future teaching. In particular, past experiences of teachers as students as well as the contextual influence of other teachers on their future teaching has been

ACCOUNTING SOLUTIONS USE FOR BUDGETING IN ERP,

We explore whether off-the-shelf accounting solutions are used or not used in management control. This study explores the usage of accounting solutions such as ERP, “hybrid ERP”, and “best-ofbreed” (BoB). Previous research highlights the problem that ERP has a “moderate” impact on management control but no study addresses whether hybrid ERP and BoB adopters experience the same problem. The explora

When birth turns to loss and grief - experiences, views and care in neonatal end-of-life practice.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingens syfte var att kartlägga den vård vårdpersonalen i Sverige praktiserar när nyfödda barn är döende och dör; samt belysa hur svenska kvinnor upplevt hot om och förlust av sitt nyfödda barn och vården de erhållit; ett ytterligare syfte var att utforska muslimska kvinnors uppfattning om den i Sverige praktiserade neonatala vården i livets slut. De professionelThe aim was to describe the neonatal end-of-life practice and illuminate Swedish women's lived experiences of the threat and the reality of their neonate's dying and death as well as the care received. A further aim was to explore Muslim women's view of current Swedish neonatal-end-of-life care. In a questionnaire with close-ended questions 144 registered nurses described their experiences, behavi

Temporal Adverbs in Modern Standard Chinese : A Decompositional Inquiry

Temporal adverbs (时间副词 shíjiān fùcí) in Modern Standard Chinese (MSC) are a group of words assuming the role of adverbial modifier (状语 zhuàngyǔ), expressing a temporal notion. Both characteristics are problematic; adverbs (副词 fùcí) are defined as a word class with the sole function of assuming the role of adverbial modifier, but several words traditionally categorized as temporal adverbs have synt

Pelvic floor dysfunction. A vaginal surface EMG study in healthy and incontinent women

Popular Abstract in Swedish Urininkontinens är en utbredd folksjukdom och ett stort folkhälsoproblem. Omkring 500 000 människor i Sverige, mest kvinnor (2/3) är drabbade. Förekomsten av inkontinens ökar med stigande ålder. Ofrivilligt urinläckage orsakar många gånger både medicinska och sociala handikapp med minskad livskvalitet som följd. Undersökningar har visat att endast 25% av de inkontinentaDysfunction of the pelvic floor can lead to incontinence and different forms of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Urinary incontinence is a common problem and about 500 000 persons in Sweden, mostly (2/3) women, suffering from incontinence. The general aim of this thesis was to characterize the function and dysfunction of the pelvic floor muscles in healthy and incontinent women. Vaginal EMG, p
