Abstract Host genes for resistance to pathogens and parasites have been a subject of long-term research efforts and continue to be a hot subject in biology. Many important theories have been hypothesized through the years, and they are now being complemented by new and more detailed ones leading to increased understanding of the complex dynamics between host life history strategies and the select
Denna uppsats syftar till att utreda vilken betydelse erkännandet har i brottmålsprocessen i Sverige. Uppsatsens fyra frågeställningar utgör ramen, och innefattar såväl en allmän del om bevisprövning som en djupdykning i erkännandets prövning och styrka som bevis. I uppsatsen används huvudsakligen rättsdogmatisk metod. Dock görs även en undersökning av sex omtalade tingsrättsdomar för att se hur pThis essay aims to study the importance of confessions in Swedish criminal law procedure. The essay consists of a general overview of the court’s evaluation of evidence as well as an examination of how the courts perceive confessions and the strength of a confession as evidence. Six renowned district court rulings have been analyzed to see how the law is applied. Since this area is largely unregul
Background The rate of uptake of volatile anesthetics is dependent on alveolar concentration and ventilation, blood solubility and cardiac output. We wanted to determine whether increased tidal volume (V-T), with unchanged end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure (PETCO2), could affect the arterial concentration of sevoflurane. Methods Prospective, randomized, clinical study. ASA physical status
Aims To calculate the population-attributable risk (PAR) of coronary events (CE) from 10 risk factors, during long-term follow-up. Methods We used both case-cohort and case-control analyses for calculation of PAR in relation to 10 baseline risk factors. First CE (fatal or nonfatal, n = 3072) in 22 444 males and 10 902 females was recorded during a mean follow-up of 20 years by use of national regi
The paper is based on an inventory of crofts and cottages that was made in the parish of Länghem in the southern part of the province of Västergötland, Sweden at the end of the 1950ies and the beginning of the 1960ies. The parish of Länghem has both manors (the medieval Torpa and Hofsnäs and the 17th century Sällerås) and independent villages. The inventory was made quite traditionally. We tried t
ABSTRACT Objective: Insulinomas are insulin-producing neuroendocrine tumors. Insulinomas presenting during pregnancy and the early postpartum period are very rare. Methods: A 33-year-old woman with hypoglycemia early postpartum is described. Abdominal computed tomography and endoscopic ultrasound showed 2 lesions of the pancreas. An 11C-5-hydroxy-l-tryptophan (11CHTP) positron emission tomography-
AIM: Factors associated with unexpected absence or presence of coronary atherosclerosis in individuals at high/low estimated cardiovascular (CV) risk are largely unexplored. We assessed two extreme phenotypes: 1) no coronary atherosclerosis despite very high CV risk; and 2) severe-extensive coronary atherosclerosis despite low CV risk.METHODS: A multicenter, cross-sectional nationwide, population-
Context. The second release of Gaia data (Gaia DR2) contains the astrometric parameters for more than half a million quasars. This set defines a kinematically non-rotating reference frame in the optical domain. A subset of these quasars have accurate VLBI positions that allow the axes of the reference frame to be aligned with the International Celestial Reference System (ICRF) radio frame. Aims. W
South Africa held their first democratic election in 1994. The fact that ANC won this doctrinarian election is fundamental for all levels of the South African society. South Africa constitutes a society with clear inequalities and social problems. Since education is considered as a crucial factor to meet these challenges we have studied if a more extended and more equal access to education is obse
A vibrational spectroscopy study (infrared and Raman) is reported for the biogenic polyamine analogues norspermidine (NSpd), N(1),N(11)-bis(ethyl)norspermine (BENSpm) and N(1)-cyclo-propylmethyl-N(11)-ethylnorspermine (CPENSpm), as well as for their newly synthesised Pt(II) and Pd(II) complexes. Attending to the potential antineoplastic properties of this kind of systems, their full conformational
According to medieval canon law, a marriage could be declared invalid if the consent had been given through force or fear. This ruling was a natural consequence of the insistence on free consent as the only requirement for a valid marriage. It did, however, entail a number of both practical and theoretical problems. It could be difficult to prove force and fear within the family, but also to defin
The increasingly apparent environmental problems in our surroundings necessitate a quest for sustainable development in all areas of human endeavour. Within the field of chemistry and the production of chemicals, the focus is increasingly on the development of green chemistry. This discipline aims to reduce environmental impact by replacing petrochemical raw materials with renewable feedstock and
BACKGROUND: Oesophageal and gastric cancer are highly lethal malignancies with a 5-year survival rate of 15-29%. More knowledge is needed about the quality of end-of-life care in order to understand the burden of the illness and the ability of the current health care system to deliver timely and appropriate end-of-life care. The aim of this study was to describe the impact of initial treatment str
We describe and test an implicit solvent all-atom potential for simulations of protein folding and aggregation. The potential is developed through studies of structural and thermodynamic properties of 17 peptides with diverse secondary structure. Results obtained using the final form of the potential are presented for all these peptides. The same model, with unchanged parameters, is furthermore ap
The aim of the MIRACHL project is the characterisation and monitoring of insituremediation of chlorinated hydrocarbon contamination using an interdisciplinary approach and geophysical methods, such as DCIP (direct current induced polarisation) to investigate the remediation process.To interpret these geophysical field IP data, lab investigations with different kinds of bacteria are necessary to as
Spermatogenesis is an androgen-regulated process that depends on the action of androgen receptor (AR). Sperm production may be affected in men treated for testicular cancer (TC), and it is important to identify the factors influencing the timing of spermatogenesis recovery following cancer treatment. It is known that the CAG and GGN repeat numbers affect the activity of the AR; therefore, the aim
Brevmall 2 Announcement: Post doc scholarship in Regenerative Immunology Scholarship This is a two-year postdoc position aimed at studying complex multi-tissue regeneration (i.e., limb regeneration in salamanders). This project is aimed at deciphering the immune-derived requirements for limb regeneration. The successful applicant will apply a variety of immunological approaches to characterize the
