Popular Abstract in Swedish Många av alla kemiska processer som pågår i våra kroppar utförs av proteiner. När de inte fungerar blir vi sjuka. I vissa fall, till exempel vid Alzheimers sjukdom eller Creutzfeld Jacobs sjukdom, beror det på att ett visst protein har fel form. Att förstå hur proteiner antar sin slutliga form och vad det har för inverkan på proteinets funktion är således viktigt. ÅVery little is known about a considerable part of all proteins and it is time consuming and expensive to study each individual protein to determine its function, structure and cellular role. Proteins retain structural, functional and sequential characteristics from ancestral proteins and hence two proteins that share a common ancestor, i.e. are homologs, will to some extent have similar sequen
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den här studien behandlar prosodisk frasering. Det talade språket fraseras på ett sådant sätt att ord som hör nära samman innehållsmässigt och/eller syntaktiskt också produceras tillsammans i en grupp. Mellan ordgrupperna – de s k prosodiska fraserna – hör vi gränser. De prosodiska frasgränserna kan således sägas vara det talade språkets punkter och kommatecken. De spelOne of the most important functions of prosody is to divide the flow of speech into chunks. The chunking, or prosodic phrasing, of speech plays an important role in both the production and perception of speech. This study represents a move away from the laboratory speech examined in previous, related studies on prosodic phrasing in Swedish, since a spontaneous, Southern Swedish speech material is
This dissertation discusses employer run or supported occupational pension schemes. Special attention is given to the question of employers' pension promises, their portability and security, during the first half of the 20:th century in Sweden. How did occupational pensions in private industry change in quantitative terms? What did the terminology of a pension promise, its portability and security
Popular Abstract in Swedish Wellpapp är ett populärt material i förpackningar för transport och lagring av konsumentvaror. Den viktigaste anledningen till dess popularitet är materialets höga styvhet och styrka, i förhållande till vikt och kostnad. Ingenjörsmässig användning av wellpapp kompliceras av många faktorer. En väsentlig nackdel är materialets känslighet för fuktpåverkan, vilken dessutom The storage of compressive loaded boxes in an environment with naturally varying humidity is a practical issue in corrugated board employment. Time dependent variables such as moisture content, strain fields, stress fields and material strength play important roles for the time to failure. Supplementary, the stochastic nature of material and moisture load is obstructing the prediction of a reliabl
Background: Several attempts to increase the locoregional control in locally advanced lung cancer including concurrent chemotherapy, accelerated fractionation and dose escalation have been made during the last years. As the EGFR directed antibody cetuximab has shown activity concurrent with radiotherapy in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, as well as in stage IV NSCLC combined with che
The DO3SE (Deposition of O-3 for Stomatal Exchange) model is an established tool for estimating ozone (O-3) deposition, stomatal flux and impacts to a variety of vegetation types across Europe. It has been embedded within the EMEP (European Monitoring and Evaluation Programme) photochemical model to provide a policy tool capable of relating the flux-based risk of vegetation damage to O-3 precursor
Since 1992 semi-continuous in-situ observations of greenhouse gas concentrations have been performed at the tall tower of Cabauw (4.927 degrees E, 51.971 degrees N, -0.7 ma.s.l.). Through 1992 up to now, the measurement system has been gradually extended and improved in precision, starting with CO2 and CH4 concentrations from 200 ma.g.l. in 1992 to vertical gradients at 4 levels of the gases CO2,

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Little is known about recurrence of pancreatitis after an initial episode, and little is known about how the disease progresses or what factors affect progression. We performed a population-based study of patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) to determine their outcomes and associated factors. METHODS: We performed a retrospective study of patients with first-time AP from 20
NMR relaxation experiments have provided a wealth of information about molecular motions in macromolecules and ordered fluids. Even though a rigorous theory of spin relaxation is available, the complexity of the investigated systems often makes the interpretation of limited datasets challenging and ambiguous. To allow physically meaningful information to be extracted from the data without commitme
Popular Abstract in Swedish Luftburna partiklar från transportsektorn och energiproduktion kan ge upphov till negativa hälsoeffekter hos människor och påverka det globala klimatet. Partiklarnas kemiska och fysikaliska egenskaper förändras när de åldras i atmosfären och ny partikelmassa kan bildas från ämnen som tidigare var i gasfas. Det övergripande syftet med den här avhandlingen är att öka kunsEmissions from anthropogenic combustion sources, such as light duty vehicles and small scale biomass combustion, contribute significantly to ambient aerosol particle concentrations both on local and global scales. These emissions have controlling impacts on public health and global climate. The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate how atmospheric transformation and combustion conditions a
The aim of this work was to develop a model suited for detailed studies of aerosol dynamics, gas and particle phase chemistry within urban plumes, from local scale (1x1 km(2)) to regional scale. This article describes and evaluates the trajectory model for Aerosol Dynamics, gas and particle phase CHEMistry and radiative transfer (AD-CHEM). The model treats both vertical and horizontal dispersion p
A large part of the Earth’s turnover of resources is associated with buildings and building construction. There is therefore a complex relationship to be taken into consideration when realizing construction projects, since economic and social aspects also affect individual people. In order to gain an overall perspective on this relationship during the construction process, one solution is to adapt
Over the last few decades, increasing rates of change in the structure and function of ecosystems have been brought about by human modification of land cover, of which a major component is vegetation. Metrics derived from linear regression models applied to high temporal resolution satellite data are commonly used to estimate rates of vegetation change. This approach implicitly assumes that vegeta
Characterizing the onset and progression of Alzheimer’s disease pathologies relative to one another is important for biological staging and clinical trial design. Recent advances in blood plasma assays of Alzheimer’s disease amyloid and tau pathology have enabled detection of Alzheimer’s disease pathophysiology during life, but it remains unclear when plasma biomarker abnormalities are detectable
Introduction: Most centers treating patients with anorectal malformation (ARM) will screen for anomalies of the kidneys and urinary tract by using ultrasonography. There is no consensus on whether screening for vesico-ureteral reflux (VUR) should occur. To meet the diagnostic needs of ARM patients a method was developed to include a simultaneous VUR diagnosis and pre-reconstructive fistula work-up
Ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions, which take place at particle accelerators like the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), are known to produce a strongly-interacting, fluid-like state of matter referred to as the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). Despite the medium’s short lifetime of approximately 10-23 s, its presence is known to influence particle p
The European spruce bark beetle is a major disturbance agent in Norway spruce forests in Europe, and with a changing climate it is predicted that damage will increase. To prevent the bark beetle population buildup, and to limit further spread during outbreaks, it is crucial to detect attacked trees early. In this study, we utilize Sentinel-2 data in combination with a risk map, created from geodat
