Nationella och internationella erfarenheter från energirenovering med stor energibesparing

För att nå energimålen för bebyggelsen till 2020, uppsatta av EU och av den svenska regeringen, är det nödvändigt att inte bara minska energianvändningen i nybyggnader utan att även energieffektivisera befintlig bebyggelse. När renovering ändå genomförs finns stora möjligheter att utföra energibesparande åtgärder och på samma gång höja inomhuskomforten för de boende.

Quarternary structure and enzymological properties of the different hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) isoforms.

BACKGROUND: Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) is a key enzyme in the mobilization of energy in the form of fatty acids from intracellular stores of neutral lipids. The enzyme has been shown to exist in different isoforms with different molecular masses (84 kDa, 89 kDa and 117 kDa) expressed in a tissue-dependent manner, where the predominant 84 kDa form in adipocytes is the most extensively studied.

Beliefs about health and illness in Swedish and African-born women with gestational diabetes living in Sweden.

Aims. This paper is a report on a study exploring beliefs about health and illness in women with gestational diabetes born in Sweden and Africa living in Sweden. A further aim is to study the influence of beliefs on self-care and care seeking. Background. Extensive global migration leading to multicultural societies implies challenges to health care. Health/illness beliefs are culturally related a

Fatal Acute Pancreatitis Occurring Outside of the Hospital: Clinical and Social Characteristics.

BACKGROUND: Mortality caused by acute pancreatitis in patients admitted to the hospital has been thoroughly investigated, but knowledge regarding outpatient fatalities is far from complete. The purpose of this study was to assess the incidence and clinical characteristics of patients who have died due to acute pancreatitis occurring outside the hospital. METHODS: Deaths caused by acute pancreatiti

Product design to reduce restricted substances : The experience of brominated flame retardants in vehicle design

Firms proactive in environmental work and those pressured by their product chain have a list of restricted substances that they do not want their products to contain. But as environmental management issues progress, what are companies doing to reduce the use of these restricted substances? Brominated flame retardants used in cars, trucks and buses to improve fire safety are a rising public concern

Increased cartilage turnover and circulating autoantibodies in different subsets before the clinical onset of rheumatoid arthritis.

BACKGROUND: /st> Previous studies have indicated that autoantibodies may be detected years before the clinical onset of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Cartilage biomarkers, such as cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), have not been studied previously in samples collected before the diagnosis of RA. METHODS: /st> Between 1991 and 1996, 30 447 subjects were included in the Malmö Diet Cancer Study

Plus(s) at(t) i skandinaviska — en minimal matris.

The word plus(s) can function as a conjunction in Scandinavian, and as such coordinate for example embedded clauses introduced by the subjunction at(t). However, one can also find examples of clauses introduced by plus(s) at(t) although not preceded by another at(t)-clause. These constructions, which represent a relatively new development in Scandinavian, are semantically similar to coordinations

A 0.2V 0.44 uW 20 kHz Analog to Digital Sigma-Delta Modulator with 57 fJ/conversion FoM

This paper presents a 90 nm CMOS A/D modulator operating with a supply voltage of 0.2 V, well below the threshold voltage of the transistors. The modulator is an open-loop first-order architecture based on a frequency-modulated intermediate signal, generated in a ring voltage-controlled oscillator. The linearity of the modulator is greatly improved by the adoption of a so-called soft-rail in the o

Measurements of excited state lifetimes and oscillator strengths in Pt II

We report on radiative lifetime measurements of short-lived states in singly ionized platinum by excitation with pico-second laser pulses and subsequent time-resolved detection. The upper levels were populated from metastable ion levels in a laser-generated plasma using radiation in the UV/VUV spectral range. The following lifetimes were obtained: tau(5d(8)(F-3(4))6p(1/2), J = 7/2) = 3.9(3) ns, ta

TOTALL: high cost of allergic rhinitis-a national Swedish population-based questionnaire study.

Allergic rhinitis is a global illness with a well-recognised impact on quality of life and work performance. Comparatively little is known about the extent of its economic impact on society. The TOTALL study estimates the total cost of allergic rhinitis using a sample representing the entire Swedish population of working age. A questionnaire focused on allergic rhinitis was mailed out to a random
