A published investigation in 1961 of the vegetation on 10 burial mounds in southern Zealand was repeated in 2000. The burial mounds were situated as islands in the intensively used arable landscape. It is likely that such small fragments receive great inputs of Nitrogen by wet deposition and spill-over of artificial fertiliser from the surrounding fields. It was hypothesised that burial mounds in

Liquid-liquid partition chromatography in an aqueous poly(ethylene glycol)/dextran two-phase system (LLPC) is shown to be a quick and sensitive method for detecting conformational changes occurring upon binding of ligands by biospecific molecules. Two groups of well-characterized proteins, enzymes and monoclonal antibodies, were employed. As an example, LLPC demonstrated that isoforms of lactate d

På senare år har en rad alternativa terapiformer vuxit fram: Kyrkan och den traditionella psykoterapin har fått konkurrens av ”må bra-marknadens” rituella snabbterapier. Eftersom riterna syftar till att hela existentiellt utarmade eller stressade medborgare borde de vara välkomna inslag i samhället, men finns det skäl att kritisera dem. De lösningar som erbjuds individen är också de som bäst gagn

The early Church was a narrative fellowship which narrativized the Jesus tradition and per-formed it from memory. It did so by using specific narrative and mnemonic forms of commu-nication. The chreia combines features of narrativity, oral performance, and memory and con-stituted a basic element of the narrative mosaic of the Church. The author of the Gospel of Mark indicates a broader pattern of

Background. Nausea and vomiting in pregnancy (NVP) is a common complaint but risk factors for NVP are not well characterized. Methods. Occurrence of NVP was studied by questionnaires given to pregnant women at their first visit to the antenatal care unit and were returned around gestational week 28. Results. Analysis of 3675 completed questionnaires was made. Nausea and vomiting in pregnancy was

Construction of questionnaires is not as easy as it first may seem. There are several issues to consider. This to avoid problems later in the analysis of the results. This article aim at presenting a selection of possible methodology problems related to the construction and use of questionnaires.

Background: Firm recommendations about the way thiopurine drugs are introduced and the use of thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) and metabolite measurements during treatment in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are lacking. Aim: To evaluate pharmacokinetics and tolerance after initiation of thiopurine treatment with a fixed dosing schedule in patients with IBD. Patients: 60 consecutive patients wi

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli produce an attaching and effacing lesion upon adhering to the intestinal epithelium. Bacterial factors involved in this histopathology include the intimin adhesin and E. coli secreted proteins (Esps) A and B. In this study we investigated the serum antibody responses to recombinant E. coli O157:H7 intimin, EspA, and EspB by immuno-blotting. Canadian patients with

TCDD (2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin) has a potency to induce decreased fertility and structural reproductive anomalies in male and female mammals. While the activity profile of sex steroid hormone production distinctly differs in developing males and females, we wanted to analyze sex-specific effects of TCDD introduced in utero and via lactation on gonadal steroidogenesis and gonadotropin le

An extended table of Shuurman's bounds on the state complexity of short binary linear codes is presented. Some new lower and upper bounds are obtained. Most of the newly found codes are based on the so-called double zero-tail termination (DZT) construction

The paper describes the influence exercised by professor Kjell Granström in the teaching of psychology. Among pedagogical inventions inspired by Granström are to be found training in small group obesrvation in a laboratory format the use of group diaries, training in consultation. The importance of a close connection between research and teaching is discussed.
