Clincal Aspects of Biological Brain Damage Markers
Biomarkers for organ damage and/or dysfuntion are used in almost all areas of medicine. The brain has eluded this technological development for some time. Recently, the S100B protein has been shown to be a promising marker of brain damage. However, before S100S can reach clinical reality, several problems must be solved. The specificity of S100B requires special investigative attention. Although t
Källare (informationsskrift i serien: Fuktsäkerhet i byggnader)
En källare ska alltid utformas så att den ger ett säkert och beständigt skydd mot fukt. Även om man inte avser att källaren ska vara uppvärmd kan det vara lämpligt att utforma fuktskyddet så att detta är möjligt i framtiden. I denna skrift beskrivs olika fuktbelastningar och fuktproblem i källare. Åtgärder för att åstadkomma en torr och fuktsäker källare redovisas samt lämpliga sätt att tilläggsis
Mapping the intracellular fraction of water by varying the gradient pulse length in q-space diffusion MRI
Finite gradient pulse lengths are traditionally considered a nuisance in q-space diffusion NMR and MRI, since the simple Fourier relation between the acquired signal and the displacement probability is invalidated. Increasing the value of the pulse length leads to an apparently smaller value of the estimated compartment size. We propose that q-space data at different gradient pulse lengths, but wi
The association between leptin and proinsulin is lost with central obesity.
Abstract. Söderberg S, Ahrén B, Eliasson M, DinesenB, Olsson T (Umeå University, Umeå, Lund University and Luleå Hospital, Lund, Sweden; and Steno Diabetes Center, Gentofte, Denmark). The association between leptin and proinsulin is lost with central obesity. J Intern Med 2002; 252: 140-148. OBJECTIVE: Hyperproinsulinaemia and hyperleptinaemia are interrelated features of the insulin resistance sy

Role of cyclin D1 as an estrogen receptor cofactor and the influence of hypoxia on estrogen receptor regulation, with focus on prognositic and treatment predictive features in breast cancer
Popular Abstract in Swedish Målsättningen med detta avhandlingsarbete har varit att undersöka cyklin D1 och HIF-1 i förhållande till ÖR i brösttumörer. Ytterligare en målsättning var att undersöka om cyklin D1 och HIF-1 kan påverka utfallet av tamoxifenbehandling i kliniska bröstcancerstudier. I delarbete 1 fann vi att i ÖR-positiva tumörer med områden där tumörcellerna faktiskt var ÖR-negativa, Estrogen receptor (ER) status can define breast cancer patients who would benefit from adjuvant tamoxifen therapy. However, resistance to tamoxifen is often observed and possible mechanisms may be loss or reduction of ER, dysfunctional ER- signaling and ligand independent activation of the receptor. Hypoxia and hypoxia inducible factor-1? (HIF-1) expression has been correlated to loss of ER in bre
Heat transfer in fibrous materials
This report presents theories and measurements of the mechanisms af heat transfer in fibrous materials (e.g. insulation of mineral wool type), and measurements of these mechanisms. The present work is part af a larger research program at the Division of Building Technology, Lund Institute of Technology, for investigating the behaviour of fibrous material as thermal insulation.

Applications of a single-longitudinal-mode alexandrite laser for diagnostics of parameters of combustion interest
We report on the applications of a single-longitudinal-mode (SLM) pulsed alexandrite laser system for diagnostics of parameters of flow/combustion interest. The laser system is characterized by its narrow linewidth, high peak power, and broad tunablity. The absolute frequency of the laser output was monitored by a wavelength diagnostic system, which included a high-resolution confocal etalon and a

On Model Libraries for Thermo-hydraulic Applications
Popular Abstract in Swedish Om modellbibliotek för termo-hydrauliska tillämpningar. Matematiska modeller och simulering är viktiga verktyg för att hantera tekniska system. Speciellt som trenden idag är att öka komplexiteten i system genom integrerad produktion och processoptimering. Att hantera dessa komplexa system kräver kunskaper inom många områden samtidigt. Modellbibliotek är ett bra sätt atMathematical modelling and simulation are important tools when dealing with engineering systems that today are becoming increasingly more complex. Tightly integrated production and process optimization are trends that give rise to heterogeneous systems, which are difficult to handle without expertise in several engineering disciplines. Model libraries provide an excellent way to package engineerin
Importance of bone graft quality for implant integration after maxillary sinus reconstruction
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine whether bone quality, as assessed by osteometry and histologic parameters, can be used to predict implant integration in conjunction with maxillary sinus reconstruction. STUDY DESIGN: Twelve patients with severely atrophied maxillary alveolar processes were treated through use of a two-stage surgical reconstructive strategy with implant placement 4
New information on b-delayed neutron emission from 12,14Be
The β-delayed neutron branches from neutron-rich Be-isotopes have been measured with a setup sensitive down to thermal energies. For 14Be a new value of Pn = 101 ± 4% has been found for the total neutron-emission probability and an upper limit of 2.4% (95% confidence level) is imposed on the combination P2n + 3P3n of multi-neutron emission probabilities. Moreover, an improved value of Pn = 0.50 ±
Experimental study of the moisture distribution inside a pulp sheet using MRI. Part II: Drying experiments
A spin-echo MRI sequence has been employed to measure moisture profiles during the drying of industrial never-dried pulp samples and was able to detect moisture even at very low:moisture content (6%). For the first time, moisture profiles have been measured for pulp samples approximately 2.5 mm thick with a spatial resolution of 0.15 mm under quite severe drying temperatures (up to 87 degrees C).
Sources of methylmercury to a wetland-dominated lake in northern Wisconsin
Several lines of evidence suggest that wetlands may be a major source of methylmercury (MeHg) to receiving waters, perhaps explaining the strong correlation between concentrations of waterborne MeHg and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in regions such as northern Wisconsin. We evaluated the relative importance of wetland export in the MeHg budget of a wetland-dominated lake in northern Wisconsin usi
The Bias of the World : Theories of Unequal Exchange in History
Popular AbstractDetta är en histora över teorier om ojämnt utbyte och deras upphovsmän. Den börjar med merkantilismen och Richard Cantillons jordvärdeteori, ger en kort beskrivning av tidig klassisk ekonomi och Gerald Fitzhugh. Bland det tidiga 1900-talets marxistiska ekonomer spelade ojämnt utbyte en roll i Otto Bauers tolkning av nationalistiska motsättningar, och i Henryk Grossmanns verk som enThis is a history of theories and theorists of unequal exchange. Starting with mercantilists and Richard Cantillon's theory based on land values, it briefly covers the early Classical economists and Gerald Fitzhugh. Among early 20th century Marxist economists, unequal exchange appeared in Otto Bauer's explanation of nationalist antagonism, and in Henryk Grossmann as countering the breakdown of cap
Forward jet production in deep inelastic scattering at HERA
The production of forward jets has been measured in deep inelastic ep collisions at HERA. The results are presented in terms of single differential cross sections as a function of the Bjorken scaling variable (xB(j)) and as triple differential cross sections d3 sigma/dx(Bj)dQ(2)dp(t)(,jet)(2), where Q(2) is the four momentum transfer squared and p(t)(,iet)(2) is the squared transverse momentum of

In vitro measurements of optical properties of porcine brain using a novel compact device
Knowledge of the optical properties of tissues can be applied in numerous medical and scientific fields, including cancer diagnostics and therapy. There are many different ways of determining the optical properties of turbid media. The paper describes measurements of the optical properties of porcine brain tissue using novel instrumentation for simultaneous absorption and scattering characterisati
