Excessive tissue deformation near cartilage lesions and acute inflammation within the knee joint after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture and reconstruction surgery accelerate the loss of fixed charge density (FCD) and subsequent cartilage tissue degeneration. Here, we show how biomechanical and biochemical degradation pathways can predict FCD loss using a patient-specific finite element mod
Why do political parties negotiate coalition agreements? Many coalition cabinets negotiate lengthy coalition contracts outlining the agenda for the time in office. Negotiating such an agreement not only takes time and resources, but compromises have to be made which may result in cabinet conflicts and electoral costs. We argue that coalition agreements are important control devices that allow coal
Background--Long-term disease progression after myocardial infarction (MI) is inadequately understood. We evaluated the pattern and angiographic properties (culprit lesion [CL]/non-CL [NCL]) of recurrent MI (re-MI) in a large real-world patient population. Methods and Results--Our observational study used prospectively collected data in 108 615 patients with first-occurrence MI enrolled in the SWE
During the last decade much progress has been made in reducing malaria transmission in Macha, Southern Province, Zambia. Introduction of artemisinin combination therapies as well as mass screenings of asymptomatic carriers is believed to have contributed the most. When an endemic malaria situation is moving towards a non-endemic situation the resident population loses acquired immunity and therefo
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of intravenous (iv) fluid volumes on the secretion of N-terminal-pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-Pro-BNP) in colorectal surgical patients and its association with cardiopulmonary complications (CPC). In addition, to examine if preoperative NT-Pro-BNP can predict the risk for postoperative CPC. METHODS: Blood samples from patients enrolled in a previously p
A search for a heavy neutral Higgs boson, A, decaying into a Z boson and another heavy Higgs boson, H, is performed using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb- 1 from proton–proton collisions at s=13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The search considers the Z boson decaying into electrons or muons and the H boson into a pair of b-quarks or W bosons. The m
The Church of Sweden has a long history of social work, and until year 2000 the Church of Sweden was a part of the government. Officially, the divorce between the two has not implied other changes than that each one is now in charge of its own economy. This study was done with a qualitative method in which semi-structured interviews were conducted with three deacons and three social workers. The a
Innovation is gospel today. This also means a surge in popularity for the agents behind innovation; innovators. But who are they, exactly? Anecdotal evidence from both recent times and historical settings tend to emphasize remarkable individuals, who more or less alone created amazing things. By utilizing the SWINNO-database of innovations, this thesis examines how empirically prevalent the narrat
Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka den arbetsrättsliga och socialförsäkringsrättsliga ställningen för förtroendevalda i ideella föreningar. Med hjälp av den rättsdogmatiska metoden har lagstiftning, praxis, förarbeten och doktrin använts för att tolka gällande rätt. Rättsläget har granskats utifrån ett kritiskt perspektiv med fokus på syftena bakom de rättsliga regleringarna och hur välThis essay examines the legal status of trustees in nonprofit organisations, in relation to Swedish labour legislation and the social security insurance. Legislation, precedents, legislative history, and legal doctrine have been investigated in order to identify the established law. The law has been analysed from a critical perspective, focusing on the purpose of the legislation and whether the re
Deep eutectic solvents (DES) are designer solvents comprised of a quaternary ammonium salt and a hydrogen bond donor that are mixed at a 1:2 molar ratio. They are a green, biodegradable alternative to ionic liquids (ILs) that replace organic solvents in many applications. However, the high viscosity of these solvents limits their areas of use, but this can be overcome through addition of water. Th
This study examined how outer and expanding circle cultures were depicted in two English as a foreign language (EFL) textbooks aimed at English 5 in Swedish upper secondary school. Moreover, it was investigated to what extent these depictions aligned with the steering documents by helping students fulfil the aims related to intercultural competence (ICC). In order to develop ICC, students must see
Denna uppsats utforskar hur resning i brottmål till förmån för den tilltalade fungerar som funktion i Sverige och Norge. Den syftar vidare till att, med en komparativ metod, utreda funktionerna i respektive land och analysera vad Sverige kan lära sig utifrån de skillnader som finns i Norge. I ett uppmärksammat mål i Sverige förra året blev en person beviljad resning efter tredje försöket för attThis thesis explores how criminal cases can, in the light of new evidence, be reviewed in benefit of convicted defendants in both Sweden and Norway. The purpose is to describe the functionality of reviews in both countries, to compare the two and to analyze what Sweden can learn from the differences presented in Norway. In a prominent case last year in Sweden, a person was granted review after hi
In this thesis, the phonetics and the phonology of non-modal voice quality and other glottal features in Chichimeco (Oto-Manguean, Mexico) are described. For this investigation, I analysed recordings I made in Mexico in spring 2017 as well as recordings enclosed in Lastra (2009b, 2016). Descriptions of this language have been published since the 1930s but non-modal phonation has not received the
The aim of this thesis work was to form and characterize model systems of cell membranes on planar supports and in micropipettes. Firstly, supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) were formed on glass slides after an existing experimental procedure. It was shown possible to obtain fluid SLBs from different kinds of lipids as well as on glass slides that were cleaned with different techniques. Custom-writte
Molecular oxygen (O2) is essential for life, and continuous effort has been made to understand its pathways in cellular respiration with all-atom (AA) molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of, e.g., membrane permeation or binding to proteins. To reach larger length scales with models, such as curved membranes in mitochondria or caveolae, coarse-grained (CG) simulations could be used at much lower co
