Föreliggande program utredning om erforderlig fuktforskning ur byggnadsteknisk synvinkel har utförts i samarbete mellan tre institutioner vid Tekniska Högskolan i Lund, nämligen byggnadskonstruktionslära (professor B. Adamson), byggnadsmateriallära (professor S. G. Bergström) och byggnadsteknik l (professor L. E. Nevander). Som utredningsman och sekreterare har civilingenjör L. Ahlgren, byggnadsma
Human cystatin C (HCC) inhibits papain-like cysteine proteases by a binding epitope composed of two beta-hairpin loops and the N-terminal segment. HCC is found in all body fluids and is present at a particularly high level in the cerebrospinal fluid. Oligomerization of HCC leads to amyloid deposits in brain arteries at advanced age but this pathological process is greatly accelerated with a natura
Objectives: To determine the possible differences in glycaemic index (GI) depending on ( 1) the analytical method used to calculate the 'available carbohydrate' load, that is, using carbohydrates by difference ( total carbohydrate by difference, minus dietary fibre (DF)) as available carbohydrates vs available starch basis ( total starch minus resistant starch (RS)) of a food rich in intrinsic RS
In an attempt to identify novel susceptibility genes predisposing to early-onset diabetes (EOD), we performed a genome-wide scan using 433 markers in 222 individuals (119 with diabetes) from 29 Scandinavian families with ≥2 members with onset of diabetes ≤45 years. The highest nonparametric linkage (NPL) score, 2.7 (P < 0.01), was observed on chromosome 1p (D1S473/D1S438). Six other regions on chr
Background: Development of multiple primary tumors is a hallmark of hereditary cancer. At least 1/10 of breast cancers and colorectal cancers occur because of heredity and recently the cell cycle kinase 2, CHEK2 1100delC allele has been identified at a particularly high frequency in families with hereditary breast and colorectal cancer. Methods: We utilized the Southern Sweden population-based can
OBJECTIVE—The goal of this study was to evaluate the performance of surrogate measures of insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS—The homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) of insulin resistance (IR) and the insulin sensitivity index (Si) from oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) were compared with the M value from a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp in 467 subjects with
Reasons for performing study: One of the most common causes of lameness in racehorses is osteoarthritis (OA). Pathogenesis is not clear and pathological processes of the different joint tissues interact in often progressive events. The interface between cartilage and newly synthesised bone has been shown to be particularly enriched in bone sialoprotein (BSP), a cell-binding matrix protein. Objecti
Rapporten bygger på en undersökning där fyra dagstidningars bild av alkohol under tre tidsperioder ingår. resultatn visar att pressmaterialet inte uppvisar några större variationer vare sig mellan de stuerade tidningarna eller över tid. vidare visas att alkholfrågan beskrivs ur en rad olika perspektiv, dock sällan ur ett hälsoperspektiv.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Lokalbedövningsmedel ger en god smärtlindring efter centrala och perifera nervblockader. I många kliniska situationer hade det dock varit önskvärt med en längre duration av nervblockaden. De olika delarbetena i denna avhandling fokuserade på detta problem. Indianerna i Syd Amerika har länge känt till att om man tuggar bladen ifrån Erythroxylon Coca så upplev's en bedövLocal anaesthetics provide excellent pain relief after central and peripheral nerve blocks. However, in many clinical situations there is an insufficient duration of action to allow effective treatment of long-term pain with single injection techniques. This problem became the focus of the present studies. The natives in South America used to chew the leaves from Erythroxylon Coca and were well aw
