Popular Abstract in English Cells are the basic unit of life that exhibit dependence on water and ambient temperature to flourish and survive. So it is remarkable that the proteins responsible for the interaction of water and heat with the cell were not discovered until relatively recently. It was assumed for decades that water freely diffuse into and out of the cells without support. The cells arMembrane proteins play several important roles in a cell. Among these proteins are aquaporins (AQPs) and transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels that mediate water transport, temperature and noxious chemical sensation, respectively. The function of some AQPs, for example the spinach isoform SoPIP2;1 is regulated by pH, phosphorylation and heavy metals such as mercury. However, the mechanis

Introduction: In a cold,wet, or windy environment, cold exposure can be considerable for an injured or ill person. The subsequent autonomous stress response initially will increase circulatory and respiratory demands, and as body core temperature declines, the patient’s condition might deteriorate. Therefore, the application of adequate insulation to reduce cold exposure and prevent body core cool

Popular Abstract in Swedish Tillgången på energi har varit av stor betydelse för utvecklingen av det det moderna industrisamhället. Samtidigt skapar energianvändningen ett flertal miljöproblem med lokal, regional och global utbredning. Syftet med denna avhandling är att studera olika strategier för att minska miljöpåverkan från det svenska energisystemet och bedöma strategiernas tekniska och ekonoEnergy use accounts for the dominating fraction of total sulphur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxide (NOx), volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. In this thesis, different strategies for reducing these emissions are evaluated, using a bottom-up approach. The thesis is divided in two parts. Part I (two articles) deals with how energy efficiency improvements and the increas

Popular Abstract in SwedishVad är åldrande? När började man över huvud taget tala om ”åldrande”? När fick ordet ”pensionär” den betydelse vi är vana vid idag? I Åldrandet och språket studeras ord och uttryck för att ringa in vad man har menat med hög ålder och åldrande i Sverige under hundraårsperioden mellan 1875 och 1975. Frågor kring hög ålder och åldrande har stor aktualitet idag. I Sverige oc

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling behandlar frågor om normbildning och argument för gemenskap i den svenska statsmaktens officiella retorik från 1660-1919. Varje nytt år skulle befolkningen i Sverige lyssna till de böndagsplakat som lästes upp i rikets kyrkor. Där informerades om riksdagar och gavs förklaringar till krig och kriser. Där beskrevs även grunden för rikets gemenskap och SveThis study deals with questions about norm building and arguments for community in official royal rhetoric in the Swedish realm from 1660 to 1919. Every year, an intercession day proclamation issued by the King in Council (Kungl. Maj:ts böndagsplakat) was read out from pulpits across Sweden. Like many communiqués, they belonged to the proclamation system, which included the spreading of informatio

Biogas production is growing and there is an increasing demand for upgraded bio- gas, to be used as vehicle fuel or injected to the natural gas grid. To enable the efficient use of biogas in these applications the gas must be upgraded, i.e. the carbon dioxide, which constitutes a large part of the raw biogas from the digester, must be separated from the methane. This report aims to evaluate the bi

BACKGROUND: The association between knee alignment and knee pain in knee osteoarthritis (OA) is unclear. High tibial osteotomy, a treatment option in knee OA, alters load from the affected to the unaffected compartment of the knee by correcting malalignment. This surgical procedure thus offers the possibility to study the cross-sectional and longitudinal association of alignment to pain. The aims

The starting point in this thesis is stroke inflicted individuals’ stories about their experience of stroke, relations in everyday life, and their relations and attempts to return to paid work with the objective of gaining a further understanding of what happens when inflicted by illness and/or disability in working age. Furthermore, it aims at understanding how social relations and ruling relatio

Intrastriatal grafts of embryonic mesencephalic tissue can survive in the brains of patients with Parkinson's disease, but the degree of symptomatic relief is highly variable and some cases develop troublesome dyskinesias. Here we explored, using clinical assessment and F-18-dopa and C-11-raclopride PET, factors which may influence the functional outcome after transplantation. We observed increase

Den första oktober 2019 infördes med SFS 2019:523 en lång rad lagändringar i hyreslagen. Till de viktigaste ändringarna hör 1) kriminalisering av köpare av hyreskontrakt, 2) skärpta straff för försäljning av hyreskontrakt, 3) kriminalisering av andrahandsuthyrning om hyresgästen både saknar tillstånd från hyresvärd eller hyresnämnd och tar ut ett överpris och 4) att hyresrätter inte längre kan bytOn 1 October 2019 SFS 2019:523 was entered into action, containing a long list of legal changes in the Swedish Rent Act (Hyreslagen). Among the more prominent changes were i) the criminalization of buyers of a rental contract, ii) harsher punishment for selling such contracts, iii) criminalization of tenants who both sublet the apartment without permission from the landlord or the Rental Board and

Rättstillämpare ställs ofta inför juridiska frågor, problem och bedömningar och behöver lösa dessa även när det inte finns uttryckliga och specificerade lagbestämmelser att tillgå. Rättstillämpare förlitar sig på rättsprinciper för att tolka vaga och otydliga lagbestämmelser. Till skillnad från rättsregler är inte ursprunget till rättsprinciper uppenbar. De är ofta inte befästa genom lag och medföJudges and authorities are often faced with legal issues, problems and assessments and need to resolve these even when there are no explicit and specified legal rules available. They then rely on legal principles to interpret vague and unclear legal rules. Unlike legal rules, the origin of legal principles is not obvious. They are often not consolidated by law and therefore entail an unpredictabil

Våld i nära relationer har länge varit ett stort samhällsproblem. Problematiken utgörs framförallt av systematiskt våld från en närstående, ibland även med dödlig utgång. Våldet förekommer ofta i hemmet och forskning har visat att kvinnor drabbas i större utsträckningen av grövre våld i jämförelse med män. Vid närmare samtal om ämnet har man funnit ytterligare en särskilt utsatt grupp som ofta falDomestic violence has long been a major societal issue. Domestic violence usually consists of systematic violence from a close relative, sometimes even with a fatal outcome. Research has shown that women are affected to a greater extent by more serious violence in comparison to men. During closer discussions on the subject another particularly vulnerable group has been found to often fall between

Egendomsskyddet är en grundläggande rättighet som följer av både RF och EKMR vilka stadgar var och ens rätt till egendom. Regleringen är emellertid inte ovillkorligt tryggad, inskränkningar kan göras då ett allmänt angeläget intresse motiverar detta. Ett sådant angeläget allmänt intresse är gruvverksamhet, vilken regleras genom MinL, som berättigar inskränkningar i egendomsskyddet. Uppsatsen syfThe protection of property is a fundamental right that is regulated by both The Instrument of Government act and ECHR which establish every person's right to property. However, the regulation is not unconditionally guaranteed, restrictions can be made as a common public interest justifies it. One such common public interest is mining operations, which is regulated by the Swedish mineral act th

Detta examensarbetet handlar om att forma en hemisfäroid från en platt honeycomb-skiva samtidigt som honeycomb-strukturen bibehålls. Honeycomb-strukturen är ett hexagonalt mönster som kan vara gjord av hexagoner, cirklar eller trianglar. Inom kartografi görs jordens sfäriska yta om till en platt representation i form av en karta. Omvandlingen är omöjlig utan förvrängning eller uppdelning i mindreThis Master thesis is about forming a hemispheroid out of a flat honeycomb while retaining the honeycomb structure through an even spread of deformation. The honeycomb structure is a hexagonal structure which can be made out of hexagons, circles or triangles. In cartography the surface of the earth, a spheroid, must be distorted or cut up in order to create a flat map. In the same way forming of
