One hundred consecutive patients with atlanto-axial dislocation(s) were subjected to posterior occipito-cervical fusion and followed up to 16 1/2 years postoperatively (mean: 4 1/2 years). The mean age at surgery was 60.3 years. At the time of follow-up, 45 patients had died, mostly due to cardiopulmonary disease. Out of the 100 patients, 67% showed a major improvement and in an additional 14% the
The decision how to allocate marginal resources to reproduction and growth can have important effects on associated life-history parameters as well as on population dynamics. In addition to showing variation among individuals in a population, such allocation rules may be either condition-dependent or fixed in different individuals. While many studies on anuran amphibians have focused on egg number
This is an annotated translation, with an introduction, of Mao Zedong's instructions on current educational work at an informal discussion with the heads of Education Departments from seven Chinese provinces and municipalities on 7 March 1957
High-spin terminating bands in heavy nuclei were first identified in nuclei around Er-158(90). While examples of special terminating states have been identified in a number of erbium isotopes, almost nothing is known about the states lying beyond band termination. In the present work the high-spin structure of Er-157 has been studied using the Gammasphere spectrometer. The subject of triaxial supe
Allergic rhinitis is a predisposing factor for developing clinical asthma. Moreover, allergic rhinitis is often associated with bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR). We hypothesise that patients with asthma have more small airway involvement than those with allergic rhinitis and BHR alone. The aim of this study was to assess peripheral and proximal NO concentration in rhinitic subjects, and to corr
Under grävningssäsongen 2003 anträffades en ansamling med ben (U60527)(Fig. 1) strax norr om det numera berömda kulthuset i Uppåkra (fig. 2). Fyndet gjordes inom området för en offertradition från järnåldern där man hittat större mängder rituellt förstörda lans- och spjutspetsar liksom andra vapendetaljer spridda över en omkring 70 m2 stor yta (Helgesson 2004:224ff). Benansamlingen som bestod av o
The thesis is a reception study and the focus of the research is on what happens during the reading process when an upper secondary school class reads fiction. The theoretical basis consists of theories of reading as transaction and the envisionment-building and dialogic classroom. A process-based and relational perspective on reading, writing and oral exchange in teaching has been central. The e
A new sub-micron beamline for high-resolution nuclear microprobe applications has been constructed at the Lund nuclear microprobe facility. The design and construction of the main experimental chamber.. sample viewing system and computer controlled precision sample stage movement is presented in this paper. The chamber is especially designed for using a large area annular HPGe detector. The advant
The scope and limitations of the ring-opening of thiophene dioxides upon reaction with cyclic secondary amines, leading to dialkylaminomethyl substituted halobutadienes has been further studied. Using ω-unsaturated acyclic secondary amines trienes could be prepared by this methodology.
Popular Abstract in Swedish Bibeln, och framför allt Nya Testamentet, har präglat det västerländska tänkandet i en utsträckning som inte alltid noteras i nyare historieskrivning. En ledande roll har spelats av de uppfattningar av Gud som förmedlas av de fyra evangelierna. Inte minst har läsningar av Johannesevangeliet genomsyrat de kristna tänkarnas försök att formulera synen på Guds väsen, egenskThis book presents an exhaustive and systematic investigation of six representatives of three important periods of New Testament interpretation: Martin Luther, John Calvin, Brooke Foss Westcott, Heinrich Julius Holtzmann, Rudolf Bultmann and Raymond E. Brown. They serve as dialogue partners in an investigation of the notion of God in the Fourth Gospel, a topic that has been called “the neglected f
We report the solution structure of human prolactin determined by NMR spectroscopy. Our result is a significant improvement over a previous structure in terms of number and distribution of distance restraints, regularity of secondary structure, and potential energy. More significantly, the structure is sufficiently different that it leads to different conclusions regarding the mechanism of recepto
Popular Abstract in Swedish Som en följd av Brömsebrofreden mellan Sverige och Danmark 1645 övergick östersjöns största ö, Gotland, i svensk ägo. Mellan två riken är en undersökning av hur övergången upplevdes "underifrån". Hur den påverkade de gotländska böndernas vardagspolitiska handlingsmönster och föreställningsvärldar. Undersökningens huvudresultat är att den statliga integrationspolitiken lUnder the peace treaty of Brömsebro in 1645 the largest island of the Baltic Sea, Gotland, became a part of the Swedish Kingdom. Until then it had been under Danish control, and since the late fifteenth century the Danish authorities had pursued the economic, judicial, administra-tive and ecclesiastical incorporation of the island. This policy was continued, and its scope wide-ned, by the Swedish
The performance of two tests, a batch test and a percolation test for the characterization of waste as suggested in the EU council decision 2003/33/EC was investigated. The tests were carried out on two solid waste streams from a metal recycling industry. The concentrations of heavy metals Such as Cu, Zn and Pb were more than one order of magnitude lower than the proposed limit values. Generally,
The present report concerns a performance-based fire safety analysis and design of a high-rise building. The resulting fire safety recommendations are compared with those specified by acceptable solutions in terms of the earlier prescriptive building code. The respective risk to life resulting from the analyses is compared and discussed. The benefit and need of using a risk based verification meth
The direction of carbon (C) allocation in mycorrhizal mycelia is of fundamental importance to coexistence of individual plants. We therefore investigated the transfer of C from established plants to plant seedlings through fungal mycelia. C allocation by the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Glomus intraradices, from 'donor' plants to mycelia in soil and two different species of introduced 'recei
