This article compares the articulation of dental stops by two subjects, one Swedish and one British English. The articulations are studied on X-ray motion films and the spectral consequences are studied on spectrograms. Speakers of Swedish are very conscious of a difference in pronunciation of dental stops and hear it as a typical part of an English accent in Swedish. The traditional Swedish expla
Monoamine and acetylcholine neurotransmitters from the autonomic nervous system (ANS) regulate insulin secretion in pancreatic islets. The molecular mechanisms controlling neurotransmitter signaling in islet β cells and their impact on diabetes development are only partially understood. Using a glucose-intolerant, MafA-deficient mouse model, we demonstrate that MAFA controls ANS-mediated insulin s
Sesquiterpene lactone mix detects contact allergy to these compounds present in the plant family Asteraceae. This marker is present in many baseline series. An additional marker is Compositae mix, which is not present in many baseline series. To investigate whether this allergen should be inserted into the Swedish baseline series, sex dermatology centres representing the Swedish Contact Dermatitis

Objective: The European Acquired Haemophilia registry (EACH2) collected data on the demographics, diagnosis, underlying disorders, bleeding characteristics, treatment, and outcome of women with acquired haemophilia A (AHA), a rare and often severe bleeding disorder caused by autoantibodies directed against coagulation factor VIII. Design: Prospective, multi-centre, large-scale, pan-European regi
Epithelial linings serve as physical barriers and produce antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) to maintain host integrity. Examples are the bactericidal proteins midkine (MK) and BRAK/CXCL14 that are constitutively produced in the skin epidermal layer, where the anaerobic Gram-positive coccoid commensal Finegoldia magna resides. Consequently, this bacterium is likely to encounter both MK and BRAK/CXCL14,
This study presents the results of an initial chemical provenience analysis of black and red Heligoland flint and discusses these results in relation to a previously conducted chemical analysis of a large number of samples of Scandinavian flint. The results show that it is possible to distinguish red and black Heligoland flint from Scandinavian flint.
In this paper we will consider scattering of elastic waves in a half space. The half space is an isotropic, linear and homogeneous medium except for a finite inhomogeneity. The T-matrix method (also called the “extended boundary condition method” or “null field approach”) is extended to derive expressions for the elastic field inside the half space and the surface field on the interface. The assum
