Platinum(II) complexes of the type [Pt(thioether)2Cl]+(thioether = dimethyl sulfide, thioxane) are capable of abstracting a phenyl group from the BPh4 counterion with formation of trans[Pt(thioether)2ClPh] compounds. Thermal reactions proceed both in the solid phase and in nitromethane solution at elevated temperature and have preparative importance. Phenylation of the Pt(II) centre also occurs inPlatinum(II) complexes of the type [Pt(thioether)2Cl]+(thioether = dimethyl sulfide, thioxane) are capable of abstracting a phenyl group from the BPh4 counterion with formation of trans[Pt(thioether)2ClPh] compounds.

Mervärdesskatt är en indirekt skatt som ger stora intäkter till staten. Företag lägger också mycket tid och resurser på att hantera den. Reglerna om mervärdesskatt består huvudsakligen av genomförande av de EU-rättsliga direktiv som finns inom området. Just det stora inflytandet av EU-rätten gör mervärdesskatten speciell och komplex.Mervärdesskatt i teori och tillämpning ger en introduktion i ämne

OBJECTIVE: Increased inflammation and oxidative stress have been shown in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), although there is significant heterogeneity across studies. Whether markers of inflammation and oxidative stress are associated with antidepressant treatment response in MDD is currently unclear. The goals of the present study are to investigate markers of inflammation and oxidative stress in

Fungi have the capacity to cause devastating diseases of both plants and animals, causing significant harvest losses that threaten food security and human mycoses with high mortality rates. As a consequence, there is a critical need to promote development of new antifungal drugs, which requires a comprehensive molecular knowledge of fungal pathogenesis. In this review, we critically evaluate curreFungi have the capacity to cause devastating diseases of both plants and animals, causing significant harvest losses that threaten food security and human mycoses with high mortality rates.

As the quest for knowledge translation from research to practice and policy contexts is growing stronger, researchers need to develop strategies for synthesizing research findings. Since home environments constitute an important context for the delivery of health care and social services to older adults and people aging with disabilities, research in this field can serve as an example for such end

Based on multiphase field conception and integrated with the idea of vectorvalued phase field, a phase field model for typical allotropic transformation of solid solution is proposed. The model takes the non-uniform distribution of grain boundaries of parent phase and crystal orientation into account in proper way, as being illustrated by the simulation of austenite to ferrite transformation in lo

This article explores four preselected permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) topologies suitable for direct mounting on low pressure spool in a turbo fan engine. The challenge of contributing to More Electric Engine (MEE) development is that the electrical machine needs to operate over wide speed range, take advantage of available space that forces to use a high number of poles and last but

Aim: One of the causes for lower cure rates in acute childhood leukemia in low- and middle- income countries (LMIC) compared to high-income countries is abandonment from treatment. The International Society of Pediatric Oncology (SIOP) defines abandonment as failure to begin treatment or an absence of 4 weeks during treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the extent of abandonment among p

Nuclear and electronic dynamics in atoms and molecules are the foundation of many physical processes and chemical reactions. Often, these dynamics take place on timescales so much shorter than those commonly encountered that they are called ultrafast. In order to study ultrafast phenomena, time-resolved techniques such as pump-probe experiments, involving ultrafast light pulses, are necessary. Fo

Den här avhandlingen berör två olika forskningsområden som är relaterade till fysiken för nanosystem. Det första området rör kvantkorrelationer och sammanflätning mellan elektroner i nanosystem, med ett särskilt fokus på hur man kan generera elektronisk orbital sammanflätning på tidsskalor mycket kortare än dekoherenstiden och hur man kan göra detektionen av sammanflätning enklare experimentellt. This thesis addresses two different topics related to the physics of nanoscale systems. The first topic concerns quantum correlations and entanglement between electrons in solid-state systems, with a focus on how to generate electronic orbital entanglement on a sub-decoherence time scale and how to achieve experimentally more feasible entanglement detection schemes. The second topic concerns heat

Although Parkinson's disease is a movement disorder, in many patients cognitive dysfunction is an important clinical sign. It is not yet clear whether this is attributable solely to a decrease in dopamine levels, or whether other neurotransmitter systems might be involved as well. In the present study, the importance of the mesocorticolimbic dopamine pathway and a possible convergence with forebra

Den här skriften handlar om ljus och ljusets betydelse för oss människor. Tolv forskare med vitt skilda bakgrunder samlas och diskuterar frågor som skrider över gränserna. Vad är ljus egentligen? Hur kan vi förstå ljus? Hur påverkar det oss? På vilket sätt kan vi använda oss av det? Vilka tekniska möjligheter har vi att skapa och styra olika sorters ljus? Vilka möjligheter ger det oss inför fram

A mixed-domain device characterisation algorithm with is proposed and evaluated. Wideband signals from a time-domain wavelet generator are applied to millimetre-wave antennas. Deliberately chosen gating techniques in time- A nd frequency-domain are used to relax the calibration effort to one reference measurement. A frequency-domain gate shapes the excitation pulse. Selective removal of setup arte

Nursing homes are often places where older persons “come to die.” Despite this, death and dying are seldom articulated or talked about. The aim of this study was to explore assistant nurses’ experiences of conversations about death and dying with nursing home residents. This study is part of an implementation project through a knowledge-based educational intervention based on palliative care princ

Limited data are available on the possible changes in cancer risk brought about by widowhood and divorce, an increasing segment of the population. We calculated standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) for cancer among 47,000 widows/widowers and 60,000 divorced people, based on the Swedish Family-Cancer Database. Persons had to be identified with the same civil status in the census of years 1960 and 1

Background: In Europe in recent decades, university teaching of palliative medicine (PM) has evolved. In some countries it has been introduced as a compulsory subject in all medical schools, but in a majority of countries it remains an isolated subject at few universities. Objective: To explore how PM has been introduced into the curricula and how it is currently being taught at different European

Patients with advanced cancer and family caregivers in palliative care face physical, psychological, social and existential challenges, much of the time home alone. Specialist palliative home care team services can be instrumental for sense of security in an uncertain situation. The aim of this study was to describe patients’ and family caregivers’ experiences of specialist palliative home care te
