I artikeln görs en översikt över jordbrukets och skogsbrukets närvaro i konsten i Sverige under 1900-talet. Den innehåller också analyser och diskussioner rörande hur, när och varför det agrara motivet är närvarande alternativt frånvarande i konsten under perioden.
Background: The Toll-like receptor proteins are important in host defense and initiation of the innate and adaptive immune responses. A number of studies have identified associations between genetic variation in the Toll-like receptor genes and allergic disorders such as asthma and allergic rhinitis. The present study aim to search for genetic variation associated with allergic rhinitis in the Tol
X-ray magnetic circular dichroism and resonant photoemission at the Fe and Ni L-2,L-3 edges have been used to investigate the electronic structure of NiFe2O4 (NFO) thin films. The results, when compared to those obtained on Fe3O4, indicate that in a 12 nm NFO film the Ni atoms occupy mainly B sites, as in bulk NFO, and that a decrease in the thickness of the film results in a modi. cation of the n
Background. A spectrum of cutaneous human papillomaviruses (HPVs) is detectable in nonmelanoma skin cancers, as well as in healthy skin, but the significance that the presence of these types of HPV DNA has for the pathogenesis of skin cancer remains unclear. Methods. We studied 349 nonimmunosuppressed patients with skin lesions (82 with squamous cell carcinomas, 126 with basal cell carcinomas, 49
Popular Abstract in Swedish För en god matematisk beskrivning av oregelbundenheten hos verkliga havsvågor måste ett statistiskt synsätt tillämpas. Med tanke på t.ex. design av konstruktionselement i marin teknik är framför allt kännedom om våghöjdens variation, eller med statistisk terminologi, dess fördelning, högst väsentlig. Insamlade mätdata utgör grunden för en realistisk analys; i kombinatioAn important problem in ocean engineering is to find distributions for characteristic wave parameters. For wind-generated water waves at deep water, a Gaussian distribution for the wave-surface elevation is considered a reasonable model. Within the Gaussian assumption, extensions of Rice's formula can be applied to formulate explicit expressions for the distributions in the ergodic, or Palm, sense
Background - In patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), a beta-blocker is generally added to a regimen containing an angiotensin-converting-enzyme ( ACE) inhibitor. It is unknown whether beta-blockade as initial therapy may be as useful. Methods and Results - We randomized 1010 patients with mild to moderate CHF and left ventricular ejection fraction <= 35%, who were not receiving ACE inhibitor
Denna uppsats behandlar fattigdomsbekämpning utifrån svensk biståndspolitik. Bi-ståndsgivning har länge varit en självklar del i både internationell och svensk politik, ändå har inga större framgångar skett med att utrota fattigdom. Syftet med uppsatsen är att utvärdera Sveriges politik om bistånd genom det senast utgivna dokumentet om bi-ståndspolitik – Biståndspolitisk plattform – utgiven av regThis essay concern poverty alleviation through Swedish aid policy. Giving aid has been an evident part of both international and Swedish policy for a long time, yet there has been no great success with eradicating poverty. The purpose is to evaluate Sweden’s aid policy through its most recently published document on aid policy, which the govern-ment published in March 2014. The document will be an
I denna uppsats undersöks aborträtten i Sverige och Irland samt innebörden av artiklarna 2, 3, 8, 9 och 10 i Europakonventionen i förhållande till aborter. Syftet är att belysa övergripande likheter och skillnader mellan de svenska och de irländska reglerna och att diskutera hur de nationella reglerna kan förändras, för att stärka olika rättigheter och bättre harmoniera med Europakonventionen. DetThis essay investigates abortion law in Sweden and Ireland and the meaning of articles 2, 3, 8, 9 and 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights, in relation to abortions. The aim is to illustrate general similarities and differences between Swedish and Irish abortion law and to discuss how the law might be changed in order to strengthen different rights and to increase its harmonisation with t
Airborne eddy covariance measurements provide a unique opportunity to directly measure surface energy, mass and momentum fluxes at the regional scale. This offers the possibility to complement the data that are obtained by the ground-based eddy covariance networks and to validate estimates of the surface fluxes that can be obtained by means of satellite products and models. The overall accuracy an
OBJECTIVE(S):: We explored incidence, predictors, and long-term prognosis of hospital admissions attributed to reflex syncope and orthostatic hypotension. METHODS:: We analyzed a cohort of 32?628 individuals (68.2% men; age, 45.6?±?7.4 years) without prevalent cardiovascular disease over a follow-up period of 26.6?±?7.5 years. RESULTS:: One thousand and fourteen persons (3.1%, 1.2 per 1000 person-
We here describe two proteomic datasets deposited in ProteomeXchange via PRIDE partner repository [1] with dataset identifiers PXD000484 (defined as "training") and PXD000485 (defined as "test") that have been used for the development of a tamoxifen outcome predictive signature [2]. Both datasets comprised 56 fresh frozen estrogen receptor (ER) positive primary breast tumor specimens derived from
Previous studies showed that larvae of Methona themisto (Hubner, [ 1818]) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) display a showy yellow color to avoid predation. In addition, these larvae absorb secondary compounds when feeding on Brunfelsia uniflora (Pohl) D. Don (Solanaceae) plants, although this does not prevent pupal parasitism by Palmistichus elaeisis Delvare & LaSalle, 1993 (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae)
Popular Abstract in Swedish Epilepsi är en allvarlig kronisk neurologisk sjukdom, som drabbar ungefär 1% av befolkningen. Sjukdomen yttrar sig genom plötsliga återkommande krampanfall, som beror på en obalans i hjärnan mellan hämmande (inhibitoriska) och stimulerande (excitatoriska) nervimpulser. När de stimulerande impulserna tar överhand leder detta till överstimulering, också kallad för hyperexEpilepsy is a severe chronic neurological disorder, affecting about 1% of the population. The disease is manifested by spontaneous recurrent seizures, caused by hypersynchronized neuronal activity due to imbalance in the brain between the inhibition and excitation. Symptoms are treated with anti-epileptic drugs, but unfortunately, 30-40% of patients respond poorly to current treatment. Therefore,
Context. Precise analyses of stellar radial velocities is able to reveal intrinsic causes of the wavelength shifts of spectral lines (other than Doppler shifts due to radial motion), such as gravitational redshifts and convective blueshifts. Aims. Gravitational redshifts in solar-type main-sequence stars are expected to be some 500 m s(-1) greater than those in giants. We search for this differenc
Test sensitivity pertains to the ability of a test to identify subjects with the target disorder. In cancer screening, test sensitivity can be estimated using interval cancer incidence as an indicator of false-negative result. A randomized trial provides the optimal approach for estimating test sensitivity, as the control arm provides the expected rates. We estimated the sensitivity of the prostat
Carry-over effects take place when events occurring in one season influence individual performance in a subsequent season. Blood parasites (e.g. Plasmodium and Haemoproteus) have strong negative effects on the body condition of their hosts and could slow the rate of feather growth on the wintering grounds. In turn, these winter moult costs could reduce reproductive success in the following breedin
Krita-paleogen-gränsen har länge varit central i diskussioner mellan forskare runt om i världen, då den markerar/sammanfaller med utdöendet av 75% av jordens arter till följd av ett enormt asteriodnedslag på Chicxulúbhalvön i Mexiko. Gränsintervallet är vida utbrett i sedimentära lagerföljder som bildades under denna tid, och kan identifieras genom sina unika kemiska egenskaper och karakteristiskaThe Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary has long been a center of discussion amongst scientists as it marks the extinction of 75% of all species on Earth. This mass extinction event was probably caused by an enormous asteroid impact event in what is now Mexico. The boundary interval is easily identified in the sedimentary geological record because of its unique chemical properties as well as its charact
