Dans cette introduction, nous caractérisons le phénomène phonologique que constitue la liaison en français en faisant référence à ses contextes d’emploi morphosyntaxiques. Ensuite, nous présentons un court survol des recherches antérieures sur l’acquisition de la liaison en langue seconde du point de vue du défi qu’elle pose par rapport à sa compréhension chez l’apprenant, ainsi que par rapport à

Injuries and diseases of the hand naturally have an enormous impact on hand function and on quality of life, both occupational and social. The majority of hand-injury patients are under 30 years of age. Hand surgery, an established specialty in Sweden since 1969, is of great importance in terms of clinical developments, education and research. In the coming decade, scientific and clinical advances

Developments in the understanding of language disorders and the progression of clinical practice for children with developmental language disorder (DLD) in Sweden started with a focus on speech, with a gradual widening of focus towards other aspects of language skills – grammar, semantics, comprehension and pragmatics. Alfhild Tamm (1876–1959) was a pioneer in the field, who brought attention to t

We have proposed that it is sufficient to provide a simple substratum on which regenerating axone may traverse a gap in a peripheral nerve. To test this hypothesis we set up a new experimental model in which sutures where used to bridge a 10 mm long defect in a peripheral nerve. A defect was created bilaterally in 25 rat sciatic nerves. The cut ends of the nerve were joined by three laps of a cont

To investigate the temporal changes in the results of clinical tests of the functional outcome after nerve repair, we followed up 19 patients periodically over a four year period after repair of the median or ulnar nerve at the forearm. Between the first and last follow-up four of the instruments used - Semmes-Weinstein monofilaments, manual muscle testing, Sollerman grip test, and Jamar dynamomet

Boken/forskningsprojektet handlar om de svenska mellankrigstidspolitikerna Nils Flyg och Sven Olov Lindholm. Under tiden mellan världskrigen var de båda ledare för varsitt politiskt parti. Flyg var ordförande för Sveriges Kommunistiska Parti, sedermera kallat Socialistiska Partiet. Lindholm var under samma period ledare för Nationalsocialistiska Arbetarpartiet, sedermera omdöpt till Svensk Sociali

A long defect (15 mm) in rat sciatic nerve was repaired with a bioartificial nerve graft composed of a silicone tube and seven synthetic filaments of five types (polyamide, catgut, polydioxanone, and two types of polyglactin, normal and quickly-absorbed) inserted longitudinally into the tube. In all cases in which filaments were used a regenerating bridge was obtained in the tube after three month

Aim: The aim of this study was to examine whether the self-reported use of analgesics is associated with being a victim of bullying. Methods: This cross-sectional, school-based survey included all students in grades 6 (11 years old), 8 (13 years old) and 10 (15 years old) in Iceland (response rate: 84%; n = 11 018). The students filled out an anonymous standardised questionnaire: the Icelandic Con

Aims: Sorbitol and myo-inositol levels and morphology of sural nerve were compared with nerve function and clinical neuropathy in men with diabetic, impaired (IGT), and normal glucose tolerance. Methods: After neurography of sural nerve and determinations of sensory thresholds for vibration, warm and cold on the foot, whole nerve sural nerve biopsy was performed in 10 men with Type 1 diabetes mell

It is predicted that savannah regions will see changes in precipitation patterns due to current climate change pro-jections. The change will most likely affect leaf phenology which controls net primary production. It is thereforeimportant to; 1) study those changes and its drivers, 2) to be able to correctly model the changes to vegetationphenology due to climate change. To our knowledge there is

Cigarette smoke is a well-known strong risk factor for inducing airway hyperreactivity (AHR), but the underlying molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. In the present study, mouse in-vivo and in-vitro models were used to study effects of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-extracted cigarette smoke particles (DSP) on the airway, and to explore the underlying molecular mechanisms that are involved in

Purpose: To compare nerve regeneration in autologous detergent extracted and freeze-thawed muscle grafts and to electrophoretically characterize the grafts. Methods: Autologous acellular muscle grafts were created either by freeze/thawing or by detergent extraction and then used to bridge a 10 mm gap in rat sciatic nerve. The autologous grafts were compared with respect to protein content, using e

Effects of hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBO) on nerve regeneration in acellular nerve and muscle grafts were investigated in rats. Nerve and muscle grafts were made acellular by freeze-thawing and the obtained grafts were used to bridge a 10-mm gap in the sciatic nerve on the left and right sides, respectively. Rats were treated with HBO (100% oxygen for 90 minutes at 2.5 atmospheres absolute pres

A substantial number of people who are exposed to vibrating hand-held tools develop vasospastic and sensorineural symptoms that may seriously affect the ability to work. Apart from the discomfort of the disease itself, this leads to socio-economic problems for the patients and high costs for the society. The diagnosis of the neurological symptoms is sometimes difficult and may be misinterpreted as

Purpose: The average adult stands approximately 50–60 times per day. Cardiovascular responses evoked during the first 3 min of active standing provide a simple means to clinically assess short-term neural and cardiovascular function across the lifespan. Clinically, this response is used to identify the haemodynamic correlates of patient symptoms and attributable causes of (pre-)syncope, and to det
