1. A new methodological approach for detailed study of the organization of the cerebellar corticonuclear projection was evaluated in barbiturate-anaesthetized cats. Extracellular field potentials were simultaneously recorded in nucleus interpositus anterior and in the forelimb area of the C3 zone, at the cerebellar surface. On electrical and natural stimulation of the forelimb skin, the evoked pos

This thesis aimed to search for epidemiological evidence supporting the associations of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with cancer and autoimmune diseases (ADs) by analysing several Swedish national registries. T2DM shares risk factors with cancer, such as obesity, diet, stress, and physical inactivity. However, it is unclear whether the associations with several types of cancers are due to share

Popular Abstract in Swedish Malignt melanom (även kallad melanom) är den farligaste formen av hudcancer. Dess incidens varierar från land till land och är den högsta i Australien, där 46.7 per 100,000 invånare drabbas årligen. I Sverige är melanom den sjätte vanligaste cancersjukdomen. Melanom har blivit allt vanligare under de senaste två decennierna. Om tumören upptäcks på ett tidigt, dvs. lokal“Cutaneous melanoma is a most unpredictable lesion” wrote Alexander Breslow in 1970. He was one of the first to predict outcome in melanoma patients, based on the thickness of the primary tumor, and today this parameter bears his name and remains the main prognostic factor in melanoma. The aim of this thesis has been to contribute to the understanding of melanoma biology in order to make this canc

Background: Total hip joint replacement (THR) is a high volume, effective intervention for hip osteoarthritis (OA). However, indications and determinants of outcome remain unclear. The 'EUROHIP consortium' has undertaken a cohort study to investigate these questions. This paper describes the variations in disease severity in this cohort and the relationships between clinical and radiographic sever

The palynofloral changes around the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) mass extinction event reveal the fine details of vegetation response to a global environmental crisis-in this case an asteroid impact in Mexico 65.5 million years ago. Due to the extinction of several plant taxa at the K-Pg boundary, palynostratigraphy is a prime tool for localizing the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary in non-marine succ

Background: The Btk (Bruton's tyrosine kinase) gene has been shown to be mutated in the human immunodeficiency disease, XLA (X-linked agammaglobulinemia). Btk is a member of the Tec family of cytosolic protein tyrosine kinases with distinct functional domains PH, TH, SH3, SH2, and kinase. Mutations have been observed in each of the Btk subdomains in XLA. We have analyzed the Btk gene in six XLA pa

Klimatförändringar har amplifierats sedan den industriella revolutionen och modeller pekar på att förändringen kommer forsätta att öka åtminstone till slutet av detta århundrande. Globala temperaturer och nederbörd förväntas öka avsevärt under detta århundrade. Dessa ökningar förväntas bli särskilt markanta i de arktiska områdena. Torvmyrar belägna på höga latituder vid 0ºC isothermen, såsom StorfThe rate of change of our climate has been amplified since the industrial revolution and is expected to change even further by the end of this century. Global temperature and precipitation are expected to increase considerably over the next century. These increases are expected to be magnified in the Arctic regions. In a high latitude peatland like Storflaket, near Abisko (Northern Sweden), at the

55 m.ö.h. på Balsbergets södra sluttning finner man en av Sydsveriges största grottor, Balsbergsgrottan. Ungefär 250 meter vindlande gångar grenar sig ut från två större salar. Grottan har en rik historia, både ur ett geologiskt och ett funktionalistiskt perspektiv. De sedimentära bergarterna som bildades för 100 miljoner års sedan lade grunden till, att det efter förra istiden kunde bildas en gro55 meters above sea level on the southern slope of Balsberget you can find one of southern Sweden's largest caves, the Balsberg cave. Approximately 250 meters winding paths branch out from two large halls. The cave has a rich history, both from a geological and a functional perspective. The sedimentary rocks, formed 100 million years ago, laid the foundations for the advent of a cave here afte

Våldtäkt kränker internationella mänskliga rättigheter; detta fastslår globala och regionala MR-mekanismer tydligt. Stater har en skyldighet att utreda, åtala och straffa våldtäktsfall. Men när det gäller att definiera vad våldtäkt är, vilka gärningar stater är förpliktigade att beivra, erbjuder de internationella mekanismerna knapp vägledning. Den europeiska domstolen för mänskliga rättigheter tiRape violates international human rights law; global and regional human rights mechanisms clearly establish this. There is an obligation on states to investigate, prosecute and punish instances of rape. When it comes to defining what rape is, which acts states are obliged to prosecute the international mechanisms provide little guidance though. The European Court of Human Rights provides the most

Denna uppsats har via en rättsdogmatisk metod undersökt gällande rätt avseende nödvärn och nödvärnsexcess vid överfall. Den faktiska rättstillämpningen i underrätterna har inte berörts. Rätten till försvarsvåld gentemot brottsliga angrepp tillkommer dels den angripne, dels envar som befinner sig på platsen för angreppet. Denna rätt regleras i nödvärnsstadgandet i 24 kap. 1 § BrB. Skulle omfattninThis paper is, using a legal dogmatic method, analyzing established law regarding self-defence and excessive self-defence. The actual application of the laws in this field is not analyzed. The right of defence against violent criminal attacks is granted to the person being attacked, as well as anyone else nearby. This right is prescribed by 24 chapter 1 § Brottsbalken (the Swedish criminal code)

Material contributes to a large share of construction costs and as prices are increasing companies must seek creative solutions and find new approaches in order to find ways of saving money. As a part of a strategic development Peab, one of Sweden’s leading construction- and contractor companies, is making an effort to streamline their purchasing system using the purchasing tool PIA, which digital

DN Debatt sägs vara ett av Sveriges mest inflytelserika opinionsbildande forum och vad som ges utrymme här och vad detta i förlängningen får för konsekvenser är utgångspunkten för denna studie. Studieobjektet DN Debatt undersöks i anslutning till den svenska folkomröstningen till EMU och ramsätts av opinions- och demokratiaspekter. Denna utgångspunkt leder fram till en problemformulering med mål o

Background: Due to its high polymorphism and importance for disease resistance, the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) has been an important focus of many vertebrate genome projects. Avian MHC organization is of particular interest because the chicken Gallus gallus, the avian species with the best characterized MHC, possesses a highly streamlined minimal essential MHC, which is linked to resis

Wilms' tumor 1 antigen (WT1) is overexpressed in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a high-risk neoplasm warranting development of novel immunotherapeutic approaches. Unfortunately, clinical immunotherapeutic use of WT1 peptides against AML has been inconclusive. With the rationale of stimulating multiantigenic responses against WT1, we genetically programmed long-lasting dendritic cells capable of pro

Popular Abstract in Swedish Skador på skelettet kan uppstå efter bl.a. olyckor, tumörkirurgi eller strålning. Ofta är sådana skador mycket handikappande då de påverkar kroppens funktion, stabilitet och utseende. Om benvävnad saknas eller måste bytas ut använder man sig idag av mikrokirurgiska metoder, där man flyttar kroppseget ben från ett ställe till ett annat. Tyvärr innebär detta att man skapa

Fracture Liaison Services are the best model to prevent secondary fractures. The International Osteoporosis Foundation developed a Best Practice Framework to provide a quality benchmark. After a year of implementation, we confirmed that a single framework with set criteria is able to benchmark services across healthcare systems worldwide. Introduction Despite evidence for the clinical effectivenes

Non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC), comprising of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and basal cell carcinoma (BCC), is the most prevalent cancer amongst Caucasians. The main risk factor for the development of NMSC is UV-irradiation but human papillo-mavirus (HPV) might be a co-factor. We extended the heterogeneity of the genus Betapapillomavirus by characterizing six putative types, HPV93 (species 1), 96

Background: Infection is a serious adverse effect of prostate biopsy (P-Bx), and recent reports suggest an increasing incidence. Objective: The aim of this multinational multicentre study was to evaluate prospectively the incidence of infective complications after P-Bx and identify risk factors. Design, setting, and participants: The study was performed as an adjunct to the Global Prevalence Study
