The very slow water exchange on Pt(H2O)42+ was studied in the temperature range 273 to 334 K and pressure range 0.1 to 228 MPa by 17O FTNMR, following the increase in height of the signal from bound water observed when platinum(II) solutions are mixed with 17O enriched water. The much faster water exchange on Pd(H2O)42+ was studied in the temperature range 240 to 345 K and pressure range 0.1 to 26
This paper will approach the topic “What does heritage change?” by looking at the perspectives and experiences of a special category of heritage-makers, namely so-called “transmitters of intangible cultural heritage” (feiwuzhi wenhua yichan chuancheng ren) in China. It will explore the processes of heritagization and will ask whether, and what, heritage status changes when it comes to these indivi
Several studies reported an association between CSF alpha-synuclein (α-syn) and tau in Alzheimer's disease (AD), and demonstrated the significance of α-syn in improving the diagnostic sensitivity/specificity of classical AD CSF biomarkers. In the current study, we measured CSF levels of different α-syn species in a cohort of AD patients (n = 225) who showed a CSF profile typical of AD at baseline
This thesis investigates the dissension and dividing force present with regard to dealing with the communist experience in Sweden andDenmark. It studies the manifestations and causes of this dissension and compares the ways it has been dealt with in historical culture. 38in-depth interviews with history teachers and historical scholars, belonging to two generations, have been conducted. They have
Angiogenesis is a hallmark of cancer and is now a validated therapeutic target in the clinical setting. Despite the initial success, anti-angiogenic compounds impinging on the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) pathway display limited survival benefits in patients and resistance often develops due to activation of alternative pathways. Thus, finding and validating new targets is highly warr
While comparative construal (categorization, analogy and metaphorization) has been the subject of considerable research in linguistics, psychology, and cognitive science, comparatively little attention has been given to its role in emotive and sensory knowledge transfer (Thagard & Shelley 2006: 27). This paper proposes an explanatory framework for comparative construal in the form of a three-d
Soil erosion by water is a major cause of landscape degradation in semi-humid to semi-arid Mediterranean environments. Terrain particularly susceptible to the phenomenon witness a combination of erosive soil, unconsolidated rock type, steep slope, high rainfall intensity, active tectonic movement, rapid land use change and intense human interference. Current erosion models (e.g. USLE, RUSLE) are b
We present a time division multiple access-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (TDMA-OFDM)-based radio interface proposal for the Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS). We focus on synchronization and present an implementable algorithm for the tracking of the mobiles' time and frequency offsets at the base station in the uplink. This algorithm is based on estimation methods that
The problem of continuous-time process parameter identification is considered. Filtered input-output process signals are used to create a linear differential equation governed by the same continuous-time process parameters. The estimation scheme is implemented by sampling the filtered signals and using a recursive least squares algorithm (RLS). The choice of filter leads to different parameter con
The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) amendment of 2024 is a major tool in the EU’s environmental aim of net-zero carbon emissions for the building stock by 2050. The overall goal is to improve energy performance, boost renovation rates, reduce energy bills and support decarbonisation of the building stock. This thesis investigates through a literature review, what the 2024 recast o
We present X-ray emission (XES) and absorption (XAS) spectra of the F– ion in aqueous solution, along with a theoretical analysis using combined ab initio quantum chemistry spectral calculations and quantum molecular dynamics simulations. The spectra are predicted to have a significantly different dependence on the distance between the anion and the oxygen atoms of water molecules in the first sol
A key aspect of imperialism, colonialism, and capitalism is frontier-making. Frontiers are essential for ambitions of appropriation and extraction. This paper explores the discursive practices of frontier-making in Scandinavia including the conceptualization of parts of this region as empty space and ripe for exploitation, as wild, unruly and in need of domestication. These regions have historical
In this paper, in-situ X-ray microtomography was used to analyze liquor penetration/impregnation and delignification of wood chips during kraft pulping, allowing microstructural changes to be assessed over time. The study was conducted with sapwood of three hardwood species (alder, aspen and birch), using a reactor designed to provide liquor circulation and temperature control. Each wood sample wa
Intresset för e-sport har ökat markant de senaste åren. En av de mest populära e-sporterna är Hearthstone, som också är denna uppsats fokus. Idag är det lätt att tjäna pengar på e-sport, både som amatör och som professionell spelare. Med e-sportens framväxt uppkommer nya rättsliga frågor. Denna uppsats syftar till att besvara en av dem: tillgodoser den skatterättsliga regleringen av lotterivinsterE-sports have gained huge recognition over the past few years. One of the most popular e-sports is Hearthstone, which also is the focus of this essay. Nowadays it is easy to make money on e-sports, both as an amateur and as a professional player. As e-sports grow, new legal matters arise. The purpose of this essay is to answer one of these new legal questions: does the regulation of lotteries in t
The formation of globular clusters remains an open debate. Dwarf starburst galaxies are efficient at forming young massiveclusters with similar masses as globular clusters and may hold the key to understanding their formation.Aims.We study star cluster formation in a tidal debris - including the vicinity of three tidal dwarf galaxies - in a massive gas dominatedcollisional ring around NGC 5291. Th
Objective To date, the major pathways contributing to cardiovascular disease among night shift workers remain poorly understood. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been identified as novel regulators of cardiovascular risk factors and are estimated to control more than 30 candidate miRNAs among night shift workers.Materials and Methods RNA was extracted from plasma samples of 110 night and 90day shift worker
Children with hemophilia have a significantly higher risk of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) compared to the normal population. Prophylaxis reduces the risk of ICH and earlier initiation of prophylaxis may now be feasible, especially in hemophilia A (HA). The aim of the study is to explore the potential for preventing ICH by earlier start of prophylaxis by assessing the natural course of ICH before
Background: Prolactin receptor (PRLR) signaling affects breastfeeding and potentially breast cancer treatment response. Methods: The prognostic impact of 20 PRLR single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in relation to adjuvant treatment groups in patients with primary breast cancer (n = 1701, 2002–2016, Sweden) was evaluated. Genomic DNA was genotyped on Illumina OncoArray, and survival analyses wit
