The Romanian language lectureship in Trondheim was established on 5th June 2008. This is the date when an agreement was signed between The Institute of the Romanian Language, represented by its director, Mrs. Ionela Dabija, and Norges Teknisk-Naturvitenskapelige Universitet (NTNU) [Norwegian University of Science and Technology], represented by professor Arne Halvorsen, the head of Institutt for m
Background: Chromosomal translocations t(11;22) (q24;q12) are characteristic of about 80-90% of Ewing's sarcoma family of tumors [bone and soft tissue Ewing's sarcoma and peripheral neuroectodermal tumors (PNET)]. They generate ews/fli1 rearrangements showing great diversity in breakpoint exon combination. In about 5% of Ewing's tumors, ews is fused to the erg gene at 21q22. The various chimeric p
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den senglaciala och Holocena strandförskjutningen i Östersjön har sin grund i samspelet mellan den isostatiska landhöjningen och den eustatiska havsyteförändringen, vilka är orsakade av den senaste inlandsisens tillväxt och avsmältning. Detta samspel ledde till relativa förändringar av vattenytan i världshaven och har medfört att den nuvarande Östersjön tidvis varit isoLateglacial and Holocene shoreline displacement along the Baltic coast resulted from both the isostatic land uplift and the ice-volume-equivalent sea-level rise. Relative changes of these two components led to alternating contact/isolation of the Baltic Basin with the North Sea during the Holocene. The Littorina transgression was a significant palaeoceanographic change that took place during the m
Study Type - Diagnostic (case series) Level of Evidence 4 What's known on the subject? and What does the study add? It is well known that CIS is a major risk factor for muscle-invasive bladder cancer and that this entity can be difficult to diagnose. Taking cold-cup mapping biopsies from different areas of the bladder (BMAP) is commonly used in patients at risk of harbouring CIS. The diagnostic ac
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are post-transcriptional gene regulators involved in a wide range of biological processes including tumorigenesis. Deregulation of miRNA pathways has been associated with cancer but the contribution of their genetic variability to this disorder is poorly known. We analyzed the genetic association of gastric cancer (GC) and its anatomical and histological subtypes, with 133 singl
Skogar har en positiv inverkan på halten av växthusgaser i atmosfären eftersom de binder koldioxid via fotsyntesen och lagrar kol i marken. Dessutom utgör många skogar en betydande sänka för växthusgasen metan. Upptaget av metan sker i väl syresatta marker genom oxidation utförd av metanotrofa bakterier. Däremot sker en nettoproduktion av metan i syrefattiga skogsmarker när mikroorganismer, s.k. aPopular Abstract in English Forests have a positive impact on the level of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere because they absorb carbon dioxide through photosynthesis and store carbon in the soil. Moreover, many forests function as a sink for the greenhouse gas methane (CH4). The uptake of CH4 takes place in well-aerated soils through oxidation by methanotrophic bacteria. However, there is a net
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den här avhandlingen behandlar hur fettdroppar i mjölk slås sönder i en mjölkhomogenisator. Mekanismerna bakom sönderslagningen har analyserats genom uppmätning av flödesfältet i spalten samt genom att fotografera dropparna, när de slås sönder. För att möjliggöra mätning och fotografering har två skalmodeller av en homogenisator tagits fram. En fullskalemodell, vilken The overall aim of this project was to investigate the drop break-up process in milk homogenisers. This was done by measurements and calculations of the flow fields in the gap region and by visualisation of drops being broken up. To make visualisation and measurements possible, two scale models of a homogeniser gap were developed. The full-scale model was a direct copy of the gap in a production-
This thesis explores the interactions between cells and nanowires, to increase our understanding of how cells are affected and how they can be manipulated by these one-dimensional, semiconductor crystals (lengths 1-10 µm, diameters <100 nm). These are much smaller than most mammalian cells (10-30 µm in diameter), and it is generally held that nanowires can be interfaced with cells without adverse
Alcohol consumption may be associated with risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), but the epidemiological evidence for an association with specific anatomical subsites, types of alcoholic beverages and current vs. lifetime alcohol intake is inconsistent. Within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC), 478,732 study subjects free of cancer at enrolment between 1992 and 200
Chemical risks of consumer goods are a rather new concern in society. These risks are usually based on sythetic chemicals and man-made, often imperceptible and potentially devastating. These risks are reliant on knowledge claims and experiences as basis for risk judgments since, for example, chemical properties, threshold values and exposure are part of defining the risk. But risks are also define
Popular Abstract in Swedish Alla levande organismer har DNA, och eftersom DNA är livsnödvändigt måste det repareras om det blir skadat. Ultraviolett (UV) strålning från solen är en av de vanligaste orsakerna till att DNA skadas. De flesta skador på DNA som orsakas av UV-strålning utgörs av cyklobutan-pyrimidindimerer (CPD) eller (6-4)-fotoprodukter. Dessa skador består av två intilliggande baser sAll living organisms have DNA and since DNA is essential to life it must be repaired when damaged. UV radiation is one of the major DNA damaging agents, which photosynthetic organisms cannot avoid. The major UV-induced DNA lesions are cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) and (6-4) photoproducts (6-4PPs) and the main repair pathways of theses lesions involve photolyases and various excision repair
I Marks & Spencer-domen slog EU-domstolen fast att det strider mot etableringsfriheten att inte tillåta gränsöverskridande förlustavdrag när förlusterna inte kan utnyttjas i det utländska dotterbolagets hemviststat, det vill säga när förlusterna är så kallade slutliga. Nyligen lämnade EU-domstolen förhandsavgöranden i de två svenska målen Holmen och Memira där Marks & Spencer-principen bekIn the Marks & Spencer judgment, the European Court of Justice ruled that it is against the freedom of establishment not to allow a parent company to deduct losses incurred by its non-resident subsidiary from its taxable profits, when the losses cannot be utilized in the foreign subsidiary’s state of resident. Recently, the European Court of Justice gave preliminary rulings in the two Swedish
Framställningen utreder huruvida gällande rätt och rättstillämpning avseende tvångsadoption korresponderar med adoptionsinstitutets ändamål på ett tillfredställande vis. Framställningen avser även klargöra gällande rätt och vilka intressen som påverkat institutets utformning. En förutsättning för adoption är att den är till fördel för barnet. Det innebär att en adoption inte kan ske om den inte tiThis thesis investigates whether the current legislation and the application of the law concerning forced adoptions corresponds with the Swedish adoption institute's aim in a satisfactory manner. The paper also pertains to clarify the current legislation and the interests that have influenced the institute’s design. A prerequisite for adoption is that the child benefits from it. This means tha

One of the main concerns in this study is the perception that individuals are able to exceed the subjective reality by means of communica
En person som flyttar ut ifrån Sverige och blir begränsat skattskyldig här kan även efter flytten bli skattskyldig för kapitalvinster enligt den så kallade tioårsregeln. Tioårsregeln omfattar delägarrätter, andelar i svenska handelsbolag och utlandet delägarbeskattade juridiska personer. Man är skattskyldig för kapitalvinster på sådana tillgångar i tio år efter att man upphörde att vara bosatt ellA person who moves from Sweden and becomes a limited taxable person here can even after the move takes place become taxable here for capital gains according to the so called ten-year rule. The ten-year rule covers shares, shares in trading companies and shares in foreign shareholder-taxed legal persons. A person is taxable for capital gains on such assets for up to ten years after he or she ceased
I Sverige infördes lagstiftning i syfte att motverka insiderhandel i början av 1970-talet. Rättsområdet har därefter varit föremål för omfattande reformer. Den senaste reformen vidtogs med anledning av en ny EU-förordning och ett nytt EU-direktiv. Insiderlagstiftningen har kritiserats för att den har innehållit vaga rekvisit, medfört bevissvårigheter och för att den inte har varit tillräckligt effTo counteract insider trading, legislation was introduced in Sweden in the early 1970s. Ever since, the legal field has been subject to extensive reforms. The latest reform took place following a new EU regulation and a new EU directive. Insider legislation has been criticized because of its vague requisites, the difficulties in applying evidence, and because it has not been sufficiently effective
The positive correlation between elevated expression of wingless-type mammary tumor virus integration site family member 5A (WNT5A) and metastatic potential in melanoma has been extensively explored. However, detailed mechanistic aspects regarding how WNT5A promotes increased melanoma aggressiveness remains unknown.

I takt med den tekniska utvecklingen behandlas personuppgifter i allt större utsträckning och mer gränsöverskridande. Behandling och överföring av personuppgifter är förenat med en risk för att individens integritetsskydd åsidosätts. EU har en stark dataskyddslagstiftning och värnar om skydd av EU-medborgares personuppgifter. USA har inte en lika stark dataskyddslagstiftning. Samtidigt är USA enWith the fast development in information technology, personal data is increasingly being processed and interchanged cross-border. Processing and transfer of personal data is associated with a risk that the individual's privacy protection is disregarded. The EU has strong data protection legislations and a strong protection of the personal data of EU citizens. The U.S. does not have as strong
