Popular Abstract in Swedish Kardiovaskulär sjukdom är ett samlingsnamn för sjukdomar som involverar hjärtat och/eller kärlen. De är orsaken till 41 % av alla dödsfall i Sverige, och 12 % av alla svenskar lider av följderna av dessa sjukdomar. Ateroskleros, som är en kardiovaskulär sjukdom, kan upptäckas redan hos barn. Då ser man ateroskleros som en förändring i kärlväggen (plack) och i detta stadAtherosclerosis is triggered by LDL entrapment in the vessel wall. Oxidation and enzymatic processing of LDL give rise to inflammatory mediators such as lyso-PC. These inflammatory mediators attract monocytes into the vessel wall where they differentiate into macrophages. The macrophages adopt different phenotypes depending on the environment. In vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo studies were combined

The critical features of a strategy to promote improved teaching and learning are explored in this article from a socio-cultural perspective in a research-intensive institution. The paper presents theoretical underpinnings and implications as well as an empirical case study of such a strategy and its seemingly successful results. The strategy builds on scholarship of teaching and learning beyond i

To elucidate which neuropeptide Y receptor subtype is responsible for the neuropeptide Y-induced potentiation of the noradrenaline-evoked contraction in human omental arteries we used antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (Antisense), the new selective neuropeptide Y Y1 receptor antagonist, BIBP3226 {(R)-N2-(diphenylacetyl)-N-[(4-hydroxyphenyl) methyl]-D-arginine-amide} and the reverse transcriptase-poly

Accountability to stakeholders has always been pivotal in supporting nonprofit organizations in legitimizing their existence within local communities and building public trust. The development of Web-based accountability tools has offered growing possibilities to communicate and engage in dialogue with stakeholders. However, nonprofit organizations are not yet fully exploiting the potential of the

The idea that water intake or hydration may play an intrinsic, independent role in modulating metabolic disease risk is relatively recent. Here, we outline the journey from early experimental works to more recent evidence linking water and hydration to metabolic health. It has been known for decades that individuals with existing metabolic dysfunction experience challenges to body water balance an

The 17th century philosopher Spinoza is known for his concept of God as One Substance, God or Nature and therefore considered as a monist and categorized as a naturalist. He has been labeled an atheist and God-intoxicated man, as well as a determinist and pantheist, which I perceive to be dichotomies. The problem, as I see it, is that Spinoza’s philosophy and concept of God has mainly been interpr

Introduction Skin metabolomics may serve as a powerful tool to evaluate the physiological changes oc- curring in the body as a range of compounds, coming from inside the body, are retained in the skin. Background The diffusion kinetics of metabolites across the skin, the composition of the skin, the metabolites released as a consequence of different illnesses as well as the relationship be- tween

This paper seeks to explore what perceptions travel bloggers have of Europe and also what perceptions of Europe they might be transmitting to their readers. Based around Eurail’s Blog Trail 2011 campaign, five blogs were analyzed in an effort to uncover common characteristics of European destinations visited. Through a thematic content analysis, four overarching themes were detected: Europe as a c

Both experimental and simulation data on fire evacuation are influenced by a component of uncertainty caused by the impact of the unexplained variance in human behaviour, namely behavioural uncertainty (BU). Evacuation model validation studies should include the study of this type of uncertainty during the comparison of experiments and simulation results. An evacuation model validation procedure i

Cosmogenic radionuclides, such as 10Be and 14C, share a common production signal, with their formation in the Earth's upper atmosphere modulated by changes to the geomagnetic field, as well as variations in the intensity of the solar wind. Here, we use this common production signal to compare between the radiocarbon (IntCal)and Greenland ice-core (GICC05)timescales, utilising the most pronounced c

Absorption of sunlight is the first step in photosynthesis, which provides energy for the vast majority of organisms on Earth. The primary processes of photosynthesis have been studied extensively in isolated light-harvesting complexes and reaction centres, however, to understand fully the way in which organisms capture light it is crucial to also reveal the functional relationships between the in
