Popular Abstract in English Psychotropic pharmaceuticals include various groups of chemicals that have been designed to affect neurochemistry in human consumers resulting in changes in cognition, mood, and/or behavior; many target specific receptors and subsequently alter neurotransmitter levels in the central nervous system. The use of pharmaceuticals by consumers results in the release of these Psychotropic pharmaceuticals have been shown to exert a variety of sublethal effects on non-target organisms, even at low concentrations found in the environment (ng/L to µg/L); hence, the aim of my research has been to determine the individual-level effects of psychotropic pharmaceuticals (the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors sertraline and fluoxetine, and the β-blocker propranolol) on beh

For future usage of services and applications, it would be beneficial to be able to use only one terminal for their communication needs. The intention is also that the terminal should stay connected even if it has to change technology, system and/or operator. This means that a user will need to have a terminal, which can use different types of wireless systems. As well as that the systems have the

BACKGROUND Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is a promising marker of ovarian reserve. The aim of the study is to assess the circadian variation in AMH, and to evaluate its clinical relevance and biological aspects as an effect of age and other endocrine mechanisms involved in the regulation of AMH secretion. METHODS Nineteen healthy non-smoking, regularly menstruating female volunteers with body mass

Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet har varit att studera tillämpningen av ventilation i skolbyggnader. Huvuddelen av avhandlingen behandlar vädring av klassrum. Analytiska modeller med vilka luftutbytet orsakat av vädring kan beräknas föreslås. Ett mål är att modellerna skall utgöra ett verktyg för projektörer och brukare. Modellerna skall kunna användas när man vill bestämma tidslängden för vädriThe objective of this thesis is to study the application of ventilation in schools buildings. A number of studies of the application of different forms of ventilation are presented. The main part of the thesis focuses on window opening in a classroom. Analytical models for calculation of the air change caused by window airing are proposed. The models are intended to be a tool for designers and occ

Background and Purpose - The causes of death of patients with cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) have not been systematically addressed in previous studies. We aimed to analyze the causes and predictors of death during the acute phase of CVT in the International Study on Cerebral Vein and Dural Sinus Thrombosis (ISCVT) to identify preventable or treatable causes. Methods - ISCVT is a multinational,

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the early and intermediate outcome of a consecutive series of emergency endovascular aneurysm repairs (eEVAR) of computed tomography (CT)-verified infrarenal ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (rAAA) at a single tertiary referral centre. METHODS: Prospectively collected data of patients operated between April 2000 and October 2007 were retrospectively reviewed and all their

The purpose of this study was to derive calibration coefficients (in terms of cps kBq-1) and minimum detectable activities, MDA, (in terms of kBq and corresponding dose rate) for the dual head gamma camera part of an SPECT/CT-instrument when used for in vivo internal contamination measurements in radiation emergency situations. A cylindrical-conical PMMA phantom with diameters in the range of 7-30

Denna uppsats diskuterar internprissättning, d.v.s. koncernintern gränsöverskridande handel, i ljuset av de förändringar som BEPS-projektet innebär gällande aggressiv skatteplanering och skatteerosion. Arbetet innehåller en genomgång av gällande rätt, både vad avser grunderna kring armlängdsprincipen, rättstillämpningen, samt de faktorer som styr det marknadsmässiga priset i den enskilda transaktiThis essay deals with Transfer Pricing – a field in international tax law which deals with foreign transactions between separate entities in a corporate group. The composition deals with the challenges of aggressive tax planning and base erosion, observed by the OECD in the BEPS-project, which was launched in 2013. The investigation contains a survey of existing law in respect of the arm’s length

Participation is one of the most important concepts in current development debate, both in theory and practice. It is also a contested topic and it has been argued that despite well expressed intentions, problems that for long have been connected to development are not solved through participation. Despite participation being suggested as the „new development era‟ many development theorists argue

JavaDL is a domain-specific language (DSL) for writing static program analyses in a declarative logic programming style, based on Datalog. The key feature of this DSL is the ability to pattern-match on literal source code syntax and reason non-locally through declarative programming. Static program analyses generally suer from producing false positive alarms. This results in developers having to

Lactobacillus reuteri is known as probiotics with health benefits. Freeze-drying is frequently used to preserve probiotics and keep them alive. However, freeze-drying through freezing and drying might cause some damages to the probiotic’s cells. Formulation by protective agents including cryoprotectants and lyoprotectants prior to freeze-drying can prevent and reduce these damages. In this study,

Disney har sedan 30-talet legat i täten för tekniska och artistiska landvinningar och har med sina filmer byggt en kanon som gjort bolaget synonymt med animerad film. Denna uppsats syfte är att undersöka de estetiska beståndsdelar Disneys filmer är uppbyggda av, där fokus ligger vid färgsättningen av de tecknade filmerna. Med hjälp av semiotisk stilanalys behandlas färganvändningarnas utseenden oc

Från industriella restprodukter till grönt drivmedel – två vägar mot förnybara bränslen. Bio-olja från skogsrester kräver uppgradering för att kunna behandlas i befintliga oljeraffinaderier. Två innovativa processer visar potential, men tekniska och ekonomiska utmaningar framstår. Att minska beroendet av fossila bränslen är avgörande för att nå klimatmålen. Ett lovande alternativ är att producerThis master’s thesis evaluates the commercial-scale feasibility of two processes that upgrade lignocellulosic bio-oil: dewatering and derivatization upgrading (DDU) and green cooking and cleaning (GCC). Both processes aim to produce upgraded bio-oil suitable for co-processing in existing oil refineries, though they differ significantly in complexity. GCC includes the entire conversion from raw bio

Kartlägga buskar på Öland för att rädda den biologiska mångfalden. På södra delen av Öland finns ett område som kallas Stora Alvaret som har mycket höga naturvärden. En minskning av betande djur under 1900-talet har dock gjort att den biologiska mångfalden hotas av buskar som sprider sig och utkonkurrerar andra växter. I examensarbetet Looking for shrubs in an alvar undersöker Jorun Westman metodeLoss of biodiversity is an immediate threat to the planet and if no actions are taken it is expected to accelerate. The highest species richness on smaller scale is found in semi-natural temperate grasslands, with one of the documented records from Stora Alvaret on Öland, Sweden. The area is protected under the Natura 2000-network and Länstyrelsen Kalmar are responsible for monitoring while local
