Swedish conjunctions differ from subjunctions by being able to combine main clauses with each other. At the beginning of the literary period (13th century) Swedish had conjinctions meaning 'and', 'or', 'but', all of them with a Proto-Germanic origin. During the following centuries a few causal/explanatory and consecutive/conclusive conjunctioms were added: ty, for, so. In this article it s argued

In recent decades, the effects of religious pluralism on religious participation has been a much debated topic among sociologists of religion.

The aim of this study was to analyze the medical history, with regards to previous remote depression, in patients with neuropathologically verified Alzheimer's disease (AD), vascular dementia (VaD) and mixed AD/VaD. The 201 patients included (115 AD, 44 VaD and 42 mixed AD/VaD) had been referred to the Psychogeriatric/Psychiatric Department, Lund University Hospital, for psychogeriatric investigat

An x-ray streak camera system uses a laser triggered photo-conductive switch to synchronize the high voltage ramp applied to its sweep plates to the photo-excitation of a sample. This technique allows the jitter. between successive sweeps to be kept below 100 fs compared to over 1 ps:using classical methods. By accumulating a stable pulsed x-ray signal over many sweeps, a very high dynamic range c

This report summarizes a PhD study course on Case Studies, Spring 2007. It contains a report on “Checklists for Software Engineering Case Study Research” followed by nine report on minor case studies on different aspects of Software Engineering PhD programmes.

Endoleaks are one of the most common reasons for reinterventions and failure after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). Current classifications divide endoleaks into type I-V but a more pragmatic definition is of direct and indirect endoleaks. Direct endoleaks (type I and III) transmit direct systemic pressure to the aneurysm sac and carry a high risk of aneurysm growth and rupture if left untreat

The use of this material under current use conditions is supported by the existing information. This material was evaluated for genotoxicity, repeated dose toxicity, developmental toxicity, reproductive toxicity, local respiratory toxicity, phototoxicity, skin sensitization potential, as well as, environmental safety. Repeated dose toxicity was determined to have the most conservative systemic exp
