Popular Abstract in Swedish Blodåderförkalkning och dess komplikationer såsom hjärn- och hjärtinfarkt är bland de vanligaste orsakerna till sjukdom och död i vårt samhälle. Flera faktorer är av betydelse för uppkomsten av åderförkalkning. I denna avhandling presenteras studier av substanser frisatta från kärlendothelet (blodkärlväggarnas insida) respektive från vita blodkroppar, och dessa substansThis study was undertaken to evaluate relationships between endothelial function (assessed as mediators of endothelium-derived vasoactive factors such as nitric oxide [NO], prostacyclin [PGI2] and endothelin [ET-1] ), and risk factors for atherosclerosis, as well as to study possible relationships between endothelial function and leukocyte activation (indicated by measurements of leukocyte-derived

Syftet med denna artikel är att beskriva några ledstjärnor för en kreativitetsfrämjande lärandemiljö och exemplifiera hur dessa har tillämpats på en universitetskurs i psykologi. Åtta betydelsefulla aspekter - framvaskade från forskningslitteraturen - introduceras som en utgångspunkt för lärare att arbeta med, nämligen 1) att skapa ett öppet klimat, 2) flexibilitet i struktur, metod och attityd, 3

As climate models can be used to reproduce historical climates, the outcomes can be used to put climate extremes in to a proper historical perspective. This also allows investigation of nonlinear properties of hydrologic processes (e. g. precipitation, runoff) to better understand regional hydrologic dynamics. To this end, the present study uses results from a so-called 'paleosimulation' (i.e. sim

The article presents and analyses the editorial ideals and practices of the Enlightenment press with regard to their participatory elements. The decline of these ideals and practices, during the era of the establishment of the modern press in the 1820s, 1830s and 1840s, is discussed with regard to its advocates’ self-legitimating ambitions. These professional efforts were carried out in various wa

It has been recently reported that both dynamic movement characteristics, as well as the duration of postures adopted during work, are important in the development of low back pain (LBP). This paper presents a video-based posture assessment method capable of measuring trunk angles and angular velocities in industrial workplaces. The interobserver reliability, system accuracy, and the relationship

Screening for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) among 65 year old men has been proven cost-effective, but nowadays is conducted partly under new conditions. The prevalence of AAA has decreased, and endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has become the predominant surgical method for AAA repair in many centers. At the Malmö Vascular Center pharmacological secondary prevention with statins, antiplatelet

This article presents a reading of two Greek Marian hymns written in the centuries after the Ephesus Council: the Annunciation Hymn by Romanos the Melodist, which is the earliest extant Annunciation hymn we have, and the well-known Akathistos Hymn. Many scholars believe the latter to be a fifth century composition, and not – as have been claimed by such important scholars as Constantinos A. Trypan

Society is becoming increasingly dynamic and complex, and therefore more vulnerable. It is thus important that society is resilient in order to be able to protect citizens and critical functions in the wake of disasters. It has been suggested that disaster risk reduction (DRR) is key in establishing resilience, and that adequate capacity in DRR is vital to reduce the effects of disasters. DRR and
