Although there are some epigenome-wide association studies (EWAS) of insulin resistance, most of them did not replicate their findings and are focused in populations of European ancestry limiting the generalizability. In EPIPREG (294 Europeans and 162 South Asians), we conducted an EWAS of insulin resistance in maternal peripheral blood leukocytes, with replication in Born in Bradford (n=879; 430

The protection provided by poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) to muscle lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in metal-catalyzed oxidation (MCO) systems (CuSO(4) or FeCl(2) combined with H(2)O(2)) was studied, and comparisons were made with the chelators EDTA and desferal, respectively. The analytical chelating capacity of PEI was estimated to be around 1 mol Cu(2+)/10 mol ethyleneimine for all molecular weights of

The stereoselective reduction of ketones catalysed by alcohol dehydrogenase from Thermoanaerobium brockii was studied in different reaction media, hexane at controlled water activities, hexane with 2.5% water (biphasic) and pure water. The reactions were studied in the temperature range from -1 to 50°C. Increasing the water activity from 0.53 to 0.97 increased the reaction rate 16-fold. The rate w

Background: Differential diagnosis of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is challenging. Sineoculis homeobox homolog 1 (SIX1) is an oncogene involved in skeletal muscle differentiation. We compared protein expression patterns of SIX1 in RMS and its most common differential diagnoses. Methods: SIX1 immunohistochemistry in 36 RMS and in 33 tumors from seven differential diagnostic subtypes were evaluated. The f

Lead was an essential part of bullets used at shooting ranges in Sweden. This has lead to that many shooting ranges have elevated amounts of lead in the soil, ie. lead ground contamination. As lead causes severe health effects on humans and animals, and accumulates in the nature then this is of great concern. This contamination and its effects on humans is also very important since many of those s

The rapid development of China's outbound tourism in European countries is receiving more and more attention from the European tourism industry. The improvements of the national economy, the characteristics of Chinese culture and the strengthening of the economic and cultural bonds between China and European Union countries have all played roles in its growth. This master thesis summarizes Chi

All vårdpersonal bör ges grundläggande kunskaper om smärtsinnet, reaktioner på smärta samt behandling av olika typer av smärta. Sjuksköterskor ska dessutom ha god kännedom om tekniker för smärtskattning, om psykologiska faktorers betydelse och om traditionella smärtstillande läkemedels kliniska användning (SoS-rapport 1994:4). Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka förekomst, innehåll och mål f

Several disperse dyes (DDs) are still considered to be the most important allergens in textile dermatitis, but there are sparse data about their current use in textiles. The aim of this review was to evaluate published studies and reports on contact allergy to DDs published in PubMed during the last 22 years (1990-2012). Prevalence data are provided by study and by dye, as well as by the described

Water vapor sorption isotherms are essential data in models to predict the service life of cement based structures. This study investigates the influence of water to binder ratio (0.4, 0.5 and 0.6), and the presence of two SCMs (70% slag and 10% silica fume) on sorption isotherms, both in the hygroscopic and in the super-hygroscopic relative humidity (RH) ranges. In the present paper desorption is

Occupational exposure to toluene diisocyanate (TDI) is a known occupational hazard and the occupational exposure limits in air are very low. One of the most common methods to monitor exposure to isocyanates is to sample air through filters impregnated with 1-(2-methoxyphenyl) piperazine (2MP). In one earlier field study it was found that long-term sampling with 2MP-filters underestimated the expos

Background: This study aimed to explore how the physical and social environment of a neighbourhood influenced the physical activity of children from the perspective of children and caregivers. It used a low-income neighbourhood in Beijing as the setting and focused on children in middle childhood. Methods: Guided by the Urban Ecological Model for Environment and Health Behaviour, semi-structured i
