Artikeln recenserar Inga Hellbergs bok ”Det fackliga förtroendet. En studie av ombudsmän och experter 1950–1991” (Atlas 1997). Hellbergs studie behandlar professionaliseringstendenser hos ombudsmän och experter inom LO-området. Även Carl-Gösta Hanssons bok "Fackliga karriärer" (Borea 1996) tas upp till diskussion i artikeln, varvid frågan om facklig professionalisering vidgas till TCO- och SACO-sf
Two-phase partitioning bioreactors offer many advantages for the removal of toxic pollutants. In particular, such systems can be loaded with very large quantities of pollutants without risks of microbial inhibition, they are self-regulated and they prevent the risks of hazardous pollutant volatilisation during aerobic treatment. However, their potential has never been tested at low temperatures. P
We present a case of exertional heatstroke, uncommon in the Scandinavian climate zone. Despite early recognition and treatment, our patient underwent a complex clinical course with both renal and liver failure, requiring 4 months of hospital stay and a convalescens of more than a year. In previous reported cases of severe liver failure following exertional heatstroke, liver transplantation has bee
The aim of this thesis was to develop and apply self-registered and observed measures of physical function in people with arthritis in the lower extremity. In Paper I, 181 subjects from the Swedish Knee Arthroplasty Register who were satisfied with their primary knee arthroplasty were studied. 44% of the medical records included reports of pain in the replaced knee at the same time as the patient
The production of combustion products is discussed, especially with respect to the influence of ventilation conditions. Results are presented and compared, from different experimental set-ups. Experimental techniques are presented and discussed.
This study was undertaken to define the role of ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in the diagnosis and preoperative staging of cervico-thoracic lymphangiomas in children. In a retrospective study, 11 patients with surgically and pathologically proved lymphangiomas had MR imaging and 6 of them underwent simultaneous US. US showed superficial hypoechogenic multioccular cystic masse
High spin states in the nucleus Tc-89 have been studied via the fusion evaporation reaction Ni-58(Ca-40,2 alpha p)Tc-89 at 180 MeV beam energy. The NORDBALL gamma-ray spectrometer equipped with auxiliary detectors for light particle selection was used to measure gamma gamma- and particle-gamma gamma coincidences. Some 60 transitions were placed into a level scheme comprising 38 levels reaching up
The NORDBALL detector array has been used in a gamma-ray spectroscopic study of neutron deficient nuclei close to 100Sn. A beam of 270 MeV 58Ni ions was used to bombard a target of Fe-54. Reaction channel separation was achieved with a 4pi charged particle Si-ball together with a 1pi neutron detector wall. Altogether 29 final nuclei were identified and excited states were observed for the first ti
Differentiation from hematopoietic stem cells to mature blood cells of different lineages is a continuous process that requires the coordinated activity of several stage and lineage specific transcription factors. These factors act in a transcriptional hierarchy and also in a combinatorial manner to establish the expression of the genes that comprise a specific differentiation program. The progres
Popular Abstract in Swedish The aim of the current work was at development and validation of modeling tools for simulation of pulverised wood flames in furnaces and study how different factors influence on such flames. The numerical model involves different sub-models for the physo-chemical processes, such as, two-phase flow motion, drying, devolatilization and shrinkage of particles, the formatioThe aim of the current work was at development and validation of modeling tools for simulation of pulverised wood flames in furnaces and study how different factors influence on such flames.

The academic discourse on the need for a shared political public sphere at the level of the European Union has in recent years produced the conventional wisdom that an emerging transnational community of communication is already observable in the mass media. However, the empirical indicators on which this notion rests tend to accommodate parallel national public spheres rather than a genuine trans
Using a grounded theory perspective, this article focuses on experiences of participation in relation to home among very old people who are living alone. Eight people selected from the larger ENABLE-AGE Project were interviewed. Data analysis identified the core category as "home as the locus and origin for participation" with two main categories ("performance-oriented participation" and "together
A sample of 229 nearby thick disk stars has been used to investigate theexistence of an age-metallicity relation (AMR) in the Galactic thickdisk. The results indicate that that there is indeed an age-metallicityrelation present in the thick disk. By dividing the stellar sample intosub-groups, separated by 0.1 dex in metallicity, we show that the medianage decreases by about 5-7 Gyr when going from
The lower electronic states of the molecule PbO have been studied using a newly developed basis set of the atomic natural orbital (ANO) type. The method includes scalar relativistic effects through the use of a Douglas-Kroll Hamiltonian. Multiconfigurational wave functions have been used with dynamic correlation included using second-order perturbation theory (CASSCF/CASPT2). Spin-orbit coupling i
Mirtazapine pharmacokinctic (PK) data from patients on long-term treatment for major depression have never been investigated. For this reason, in a large naturalistic outpatient study (prospective, multicenter, open-labeled, and noncomparative) conducted in Sweden in the period 2000 2002, one of the main objectives was to outline the inter- as well as intraindividual PK variance of mirtazapine and
