Ingemar Ingemarsson, grew up in a rural area in Småland in the southern part of Sweden. He studied and graduated at the Medical Faculty at Lund University and started his career in obstetrics and gynecology in 1972 at the University Hospital in Lund. He defended his PhD thesis in 1975, was appointed consultant and later became Head of the Department and Professor in Obstetrics at Lund University.

Diatoms are highly abundant unicellular algae that often dominate pelagic as well as benthic primary production in the oceans and inland waters. Being strictly dependent on silica to build their biomineralized cell walls, marine diatoms precipitate 240 × 10(12) mol Si per year, which makes them the major sink in the global Si cycle. Dissolved silicic acid (dSi) availability frequently limits diato

By counting the number of upcrossings of the mean level by a stationary Gaussian process one can estimate the mean frequency of the process. If the mean level is unknown and estimated from the observed mean level, then this crossing estimator is more or less biased, depending on the length of the observation interval. It is shown that if the interval is at least two mean wavelengths, then the bias

Först vill jag tacka Anders Blanck och Rikard Pellas för repliken. Det finns mycket att tjäna på en öppen och faktabaserad dialog. De ifrågasätter inte våra resultat, men menar att slutsatsen att det finns många och allvarliga överträdelser är felaktig eftersom det finns mycket marknadsföring – något som vi också noterar som en begränsning i vår studie. Men (som vi också skriver) vi grundar vår s

Low-dose ketamine administration mimics, both clinically and on gross neuroimaging, depersonalization disorder. The perceptual effects of ketamine may be due to secondary stimulation of glutamate release and lamotrigine, possibly by inhibited glutamate release, may reduce some of ketamine's so-called dissociative effects. However, lamotrigine does not seem to be useful in the treatment of deperson

Consider a quadratic form of a vector valued differentiable stationary Gaussian process. The crossing intensity of a fixed level depends on the joint correlation structure of the process and its derivative, but no simple exact form is known for the general case. We give the first and second terms in an asymptotic expansion, which is valid as the level tends to infinity, and show how to find higher

Recent studies have suggested that regeneration of non-haematopoietic cell lineages can occur through heterotypic cell fusion with haematopoietic cells of the myeloid lineage. Here we show that lymphocytes also form heterotypic-fusion hybrids with cardiomyocytes, skeletal muscle, hepatocytes and Purkinje neurons. However, through lineage fate-mapping we demonstrate that such in vivo fusion of lymp

An integrated method for clustering of QRS complexes is presented which includes basis function representation and self-organizing neural networks (NN's). Each QRS complex is decomposed into Hermite basis functions and the resulting coefficients and width parameter are used to represent the complex. By means of this representation, unsupervised self-organizing NNs are employed to cluster the data
