Languages contain thousands of words each and are made up by a seemingly endless collection of sound combinations. Yet a subsection of these show clear signs of corresponding word shapes for the same meanings which is generally known as vocal iconicity and sound symbolism. This dissertation explores the boundaries of sound symbolism in the lexicon from typological, functional and evolutionary pers
Recent findings suggest that cartilage mechanical function may be a biomarker for early osteoarthritis (OA) pathology. Thus, the development of methodologies for in-vivo applications has expanded. However, when creep tests are performed, inconsistency in applied stress and testing duration impede meaningful comparisons. Therefore, this study investigates the impact of creep duration on cartilage m
Perfusion eller genomblödning är termer som används för att beskriva blodflödet i kroppens allra minsta kärl. Information om perfusion kan vara av stor betydelse för att ställa diagnos vid vissa sjukdomar, eftersom blodet transporterar det syre och den näring som behövs för att upprättahålla vävnadens funktion i kroppen. Ett viktigt exempel där information om perfusion kan vara till nytta för att Exchange of oxygen and nutrients between blood and tissue occurs at the capillary level of the blood system. The blood volume flow rate in the capillaries is often referred to as perfusion, and knowledge about perfusion provides important information about the function and viability of the tissue, for example, in patients with ischaemic stroke, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases.Dynamic suscep
The performance of baseband beamforming in multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) systems has been extensively studied for simplified statistical channel models where no angular parameters are taken into account. In contrast, there is little performance analysis with ray-based models, which are more physically motivated, feature prominently in standardization and have been experimenta
Occupational safety and health (OSH) is a vital part of the right to health. While the International Labor Organization (ILO) historically treated OSH as an entirely technical matter, it has increasingly been influenced by a human rights agenda. The ILO has responded by adopting and promoting a large number of international standards-in the form of conventions, recommendations, and codes of practi

Toxin-antitoxin-chaperone (TAC) systems are three-part gene clusters encoding a toxin, antitoxin, and specialized SecB-like chaperone (SecB TA) with emerging roles in phage defense. To identify and classify SecB homologs and associated TACs across bacteria, we surveyed the full RefSeq database. Phylogenetic and gene neighborhood analyses reveal three major SecB subfamilies: two housekeeping groups
UNLABELLED: Pectobacterium brasiliense ( Pbr) is known to be one of the most virulent Pectobacterium species and is generally widely distributed across the globe, especially known for causing soft rot in potato-tubers and black leg in potato-plants. Currently no treatment mechanism exists, and many studies have focused on alternative treatment approaches such as biocontrol agents. Several studie
Glycoprotein B (gB) is a major component in several vaccines that are under development for prevention of disease by cytomegalovirus. It contains multiple determinants that are targets for neutralizing antibodies. One of them is site I of antigenic domain 2 (AD-2). The epitope, defined by short peptides, is quite conserved between different isolates. However, it is poorly immunogenic in natural in
Neuropathic pain is a common consequence of damage to the nervous system. We here report a genetic analysis of development of neuropathic pain-like behaviors after unilateral photochemically-induced ischemic sciatic nerve injury in a panel of inbred rat strains known to display different susceptibility to autoimmune neuroinflammation. Pain behavior was initially characterized in Dark-Agouti (DA; R
Background: One of the global targets for non-communicable diseases is to halt, by 2025, the rise in the age standardised adult prevalence of diabetes at its 2010 levels. We aimed to estimate worldwide trends in diabetes, how likely it is for countries to achieve the global target, and how changes in prevalence, together with population growth and ageing, are aff ecting the number of adults with d
The Swedish legal scholar Tore Strömberg (1912-1993) is often characterized as the last true representative of the Uppsala school of legal thinking.
BACKGROUND AND AIM Non-stop stair ascending at maximum speed is required to reach a safe refuge level from deep underground structures, such as subways and in high-rise buildings in an emergency evacuation situation. Endurance of stair climbing and identifying the time of the onset of leg’s local muscle fatigue (LMF) are interests in evacuation research. The objective of this laboratory study was
One of the most important constraints on large-scale civil engineering projects is economic feasibility. All projects are restricted by the cost of construction and materials. A cost analysis of alternative foundation designs for wind turbines is done in this work to aid the choice of design solution. The suitability of different foundation types are compared including a novel solution, with a cir
The majority of the power production in the world today is based on combustion of coal, oil and natural gas. Most countries have agreed that the amount of CO2 emitted to the atmosphere will have to be decreased to keep the global warming at sustainable levels. One way of reducing the CO2 emitted to the atmosphere is by introducing hydrogen co-firing. The hydrogen may be produced from renewable sou
Cancer är den näst vanligaste dödsorsaken i världen idag och en tredjedel av Sveriges befolkning blir diagnosticerade med cancer under sin livstid. Av alla cancerfall i Sverige, så är prostatacancer den vanligaste och bröstcancer den näst vanligaste, medan hos enbart kvinnor så är bröstcancer den vanligaste med 29,2 % av cancerfallen. Överlevnaden efter en cancerdiagnos har i Sverige ökat sedan 70Cells are commonly used in research to evaluate toxicity and efficiency of drugs. However, to further increase the usefulness of cells as well as the understandings of effects of different interventions, new methods must constantly be developed and refined. Today, many assays use end-point analysis of large populations of cells, to evaluate the research question. However, there are many cases when
Longitudinal coupled-bunch instabilities are driven by monopole higher-order modes (HOMs) in the active and passive radio-frequency (rf) cavities at the MAX IV 3 GeV electron storage ring. By combining different beam and rf-based techniques, we have performed a systematic survey of the properties of these resonant modes as a function of cavity temperatures and fundamental mode frequency.

In recent years the number of connected devices and the demand for high data-rates have been significantly increased. This enormous growth is more pronounced by the introduction of the Internet of things (IoT) in which several devices are interconnected to exchange data for various applications like smart homes and smart cities. Moreover, new applications such as eHealth, autonomous vehicles, and c
