Solid grafts of autologous superior cervical ganglia (SCG) or fetal locus coeruleus (LC) were implanted unilaterally into a fimbria-fornix lesion cavity adjacent to the hippocampal formation after a 6-hydroxydopamine lesion of the intrinsic noradrenergic system. Twelve to 15 months after transplantation, one microdialysis probe was implanted in the dorsal hippocampus ipsilateral to the graft, and

Background: Chronic lung disease (CLD) occurs frequently in preterm infants and is associated with respiratory morbidity. Bronchodilators have the potential effect of dilating small airways with muscle hypertrophy. Increased compliance and tidal volume, and decreased airway resistance, have been documented with the use of bronchodilators in infants with CLD. Therefore, bronchodilators are widely c

In the CONVINCE trial, the primary analysis demonstrated a survival benefit for patients receiving high-dose hemodiafiltration (HDF) as compared with high-flux hemodialysis (HD). A secondary objective was to evaluate effects on health-related quality of life (HRQoL); assessed in eight domains (physical function, cognitive function, fatigue, sleep disturbance, anxiety, depression, pain interference

I snart 500 år har människan använt sig av diverse optiska instrument för att betrakta sådant som inte är möjligt att se med blotta ögat. Teleskop har använts för att studera himlakroppar och mikroskop för att exempelvis undersöka små biologiska beståndsdelar. Det finns idag många olika metoder inom optisk mikroskopi men samtliga följer en liknande grundprincip. Objektet som ska avbildas exponerasSeveral significant pathogenic bacteria exhibit surface proteins that bind human antibodies, preventing them from being recognized by the human immune system. These bacteria are thus protected from elimination and can survive in the host organism. One common such bacteria is the Streptococcus pyogenes that exhibits the antibody binding M protein on its surface. Streptococcus pyogenes causes more t

Säbybäckens vattenkvalitet Säbybäcken är en liten bäck i den skånska kommunen Landskrona. Målet med anläggandet av Säbybäcken var från början enbart att dränera det omgivande landskapet, men bäcken har därefter även kommit att ha andra viktiga funktioner. Bäckens utgör exempelvis lekplats för havsöring och har också kommit att avvändas som rekreationsområde av omgivande samhälle. Säbybäcken bör iWater quality in the Säbybrook The Säbybrook is a small stream in Landskrona municipality, situated in a landscape dominated by agricultural practices. The stream serves as a spawning ground for sea trout and nature conservation aspects has hence grown in importance over the years. Improvements of the environment in the Säbybrook has thus become a matter of interest for Landskrona municipality, w

The objective of the present thesis was to understand how the quality and performance of dried cassava products could be developed by drying and other processing steps. This goal was achieved in several stages. First, a survey of the composition of six cassava varieties from Bolivia, was performed, which resulted in the report of chemical and mineral compositions of the tubers. The mineral composi

This paper demonstrates the experimental validation and mechanistic analysis of the continuous cross-flow atomic layer deposition (ALD) reactor model developed in the first article of this series (Holmqvist et al., in press). A general nonlinear parameter estimation problem was formulated to identify the kinetic parameters involved in the developed ALD gassurface reaction mechanism, governing ZnO

Blood lead concentration (B-Pb), the main biomarker of lead exposure and risk, is curvi-linearily related to exposure. We assessed plasma lead (P-Pb) as a marker for both lead exposure and toxic effects. We examined claims that delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase genotype (ALAD) can modify lead toxicity. In 290 lead-exposed and 91 unexposed Chinese workers, we determined P-Pb, B-Pb, urinary lead

Multi-storey wood buildings have been increasing in popularity since a century-old ban on the construction of such buildings was lifted in 1994. Compared to conventional concrete structures, it is more difficult to build lightweight structures in such a way that noise and disturbing vibrations is avoided. To design buildings of high performance regarding sound and vibrations, it is desirable to ha

Background The Nordic headquarter at Campbell Soup has been commissioned by the management to review their inventories and to asses’ optimal inventory levels under the prerequisite to still achieve agreed customer service levels and not get higher total costs. The capital tied is believed to be too high, therefore Campbell Soup wants to lower their inventory levels. Purpose The purpose of this stu

Den svenska asylprocessen förändrades i grunden när överprövningen förflyttades från en domstolsliknande nämnd (utlänningsnämnden) till en renodlad domstolsprocess (migrationsdomstolen). Ett övergripande syfte för reformen var att stärka rättssäkerheten. I den nya migrationsdomstolen ingår nämndemän i den ordinarie sammansättningen. Nämndemannainstitutet har en lång förankring i svensk rättstraditThe Swedish asylum process changed fundamentally in 2005 when trials were transferred from an administrative process (utlänningsnämnden) to a court process (migrationsdomstolen). The general aim of the reform was to strengthen the rule of law in the asylum process. The new immigration courts are composed of lay judges. Lay judges are rooted in the Swedish tradition but they are common in other cou

Background: Registry data used to monitor clinical care need to be reliable, and the process for assuring data quality transparent. Here the auditing process of the Swedish quality registry for cardiac disease, SWEDEHEART, is described. Methods: SWEDEHEART audits have been performed at 4 time-points in 2011 to 2018, with data quality audited in the 3 largest subregistries covering acute coronary s

Popular Abstract in Swedish Demens är ingen enhetlig sjukdom utan ett syndrom dvs en beteckning på en grupp symtom, som beskriver en långvarig försämring av hjärnans psykiska funktioner. Demens kan ha olika klinik profil och orsakas av olika skador och sjukdomar. Den vanligaste demenssjukdomen är Alzheimers sjukdom. Kring denna sjukdom finns mycket forskning gjord. Vaskulär demens är den näst vanl

Popular Abstract in Swedish Medan akut smärta ofta kan bemästras på ett framgångsrikt sätt saknas ofta adekvat behandling av kroniska smärttillstånd. Smärta är ett dominerande symptom vid en mängd sjukdomar såsom till exempel, reumatoid artrit, cancer, migrän, ryggskador, fibromyalgi och tillgängliga analgetika är ofta otillräckliga. Det finns därför ett stort behov att utveckla nya och effektiva Introduction: To understand the function of the genes and their products in the pain system, studies will have to deal with complex issues related to intercellular communication, e.g. plasticity in neuronal networks. To provide a basis for such studies, the present thesis compares basic features of the nociceptive spinal systems including the organization of nociceptive withdrawal reflexes (NWR),

Popular Abstract in Swedish Familjen Mosasauridae omfattar en grupp storvuxna (3-13 m), vattenlevande reptiler som under ett geologiskt sett kort tidsavsnitt i kritperioden, om ca 25 miljoner år, snabbt tog över positionen som topp-predatorer i haven. Fossil av mosasaurier dyker först upp i lager avsatta för ca 90 miljoner år sedan. Under de följande årmiljonerna fick gruppen en närmast global utbMarine strata of latest early Campanian age (sensu germanico) in the Kristianstad Basin, Skåne (Scania), southern Sweden, have yielded a diverse mosasaur fauna comprising six to eight taxa, including Tylosaurus ivoensis, Clidastes propython, Hainosaurus minor n. sp., Halisaurus sternbergii, Platecarpus cf. somenensis, Platecarpus? sp., Dollosaurus sp., and possibly yet another mosasaurine or halis
