Diabetic treatment aims at achieving a normal blood glucose concentration as reflected by the glycosylated haemoglobin concentration. Intensive treatment by insulin pump or multiple insulin injections is thought to achieve this. In an unselected group of outpatient diabetics metabolic control was the same after one, two, three, or more injections, which suggests that the mode of treatment was opti

Five patients with rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthrosis of the wrist joint were followed up for 15 ( 14 - 17) years after wrist-joint arthroplasty with semiconstrained artificial joint mechanisms that had been anchored to bone using the osseointegration principle. They were fixed by one titanium screw introduced into the radius, and two or more titanium screws introduced distally into the metaca

Rats, mice and gerbils were continuously exposed to 150 ppm trichloroethylene (TCE) for 30 days. In all three species, there was a marked increase in liver weight. In mice the weight increased more (86%) than in rats and gerbils (20%). After exposure the activity of acid phosphatase, a lysosomal marker enzyme, was tested in different brain areas, using a system which had a limit of detection of ±

Objective: The aim of the present study was to map out what kind of psychotropic drugs are prescribed for elderly residents in assisted-living homes and how they relate to age, sex, form of living, psychiatric diagnosis, care needs and mental health status, and to identify factors of importance for their use; and to study the indication for treatment and the evaluation of the effects of treatment.

During the past century, Lake Takern and Lake Krankesjon, southern Sweden, have shifted repeatedly between a state of clear water and abundant submerged vegetation, and a state of turbid water and sparse vegetation. Long-term empirical data on such apparently alternative stable state dynamics are valuable as complements to modeling and experiments, although the causal mechanisms behind shifts are

We are investigating means of handling microparticles in microfluidic systems, in particular localized acoustic trapping of microparticles in a flow-through device. Standing ultrasonic waves were generated across a microfluidic channel by ultrasonic microtransducers integrated in one of the channel walls. Particles in a fluid passing a transducer were drawn to pressure minima in the acoustic field

Measurements of the Xi(-) and (Xi) over bar (+) masses, mass differences, lifetimes and lifetime differences are presented. The (Xi) over bar (+) sample used is much larger than those used previously for such measurements. In addition, the S production rates in Z -> b (b) over bar and Z -> q (q) over bar events are compared and the position xi* of the maximum of the distribution in Z -> q (q) over

Popular Abstract in Swedish Införandet av 1993 års skogspolitiska beslut med ett jämställt miljö- och produktionsmål, belyser den historiskt befästa konflikten mellan allmänintresse och egenintresse: statens vilja och behov att styra produktion och avkastning kontra den enskilde skogsägarens rätt att själv bestämma över sin skog. Idag har denna konflikt styrt över mot en statligt uttalad målsättniThis dissertation analyzes the changes in the way Swedish forest policy has been developed and implemented in the past few decades. Its primary focus is on the period from the adoption of new legislation governing forestry in 1993 to date, though the historical antecedents of the more recent developments are also discussed. The dissertation focuses primarily on the interplay between changes in the

Dilute solutions of catanionic vesicles formed by the mixed single-chained (sodium dodecylsulphate, SDS) and double-chained (didodecyldimethylammonium bromide, DDAB) surfactants have been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. It is for the first time reported a gel-to-liquid crystal phase transition temperature, T-m, in this type of mixed vesicles. The SDS-rich vesicles (at X-SDS = 0.

I examined production of, and emergence from, diapausing eggs, together with planktonic dynamics of three cladoceran genera (Bosmina, Ceriodaphnia, and Daphnia) for 16 months in a shallow lake. In a complementary field experiment I manipulated environmental variables potentially important as cues for induction and termination of diapause. Ceriodaphnia and Daphnia, but not Bosmina, were dependent o

In this paper we address the test scheduling problem for system-on-chip designs. Different from previous approaches where it is assumed that all tests will be performed until completion, we consider the cases where the test process will be terminated as soon as a defect is detected. This is common practice in production test of chips. The proposed technique takes into account the probability of de
