The objective of this study was to investigate B-lymphocyte reconstitution in patients undergoing allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) after myeloablative conditioning (MAC) or reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens. B-lymphocyte reconstitution was studied by monitoring the CDR3 repertoire with spectratyping. We demonstrate a delay in the recovery of the B-lymphocyte r

The paper presents numerical results concerning the so-called laminating effect of laminatedbeams. Using the finite-element method, it is shown that the assumption often made of a stress redistribution taking place around weak zones is not necessarily true. A fracture mechanics approach to a possible explanation for the laminating effect is also presented. Here a nonlinear fracture mechanics model

Popular Abstract in Swedish Två observationer tjänar som utgångspunkt för denna avhandling: (1) globaliseringens allt snabbare och mer eller mindre gränslösa flöde av information har medfört ökad press på företag och organisationer, liksom stater och regioner, att ständigt förnya sig för att kunna behålla sin konkurrenskraft. (2) kunskapsintensiv industri tenderar att samlas i geografisk närhet tiThe accelerated speed and intensity of global interconnections in all segments of society during the last couple of decades have had a profound impact on the workings of contemporary capitalism. Increased pressure is put on national and regional economies to continuously upgrade their competitive advantages, at the same time as new learning opportunities occur at a faster rate than ever. For reaso

This report presents a survey of current simulation tools in the area of integrated control and real-time systems design. Each tool is presented with a quick overview followed by a more detailed section describing comparative aspects of the tool. These aspects describe the context and purpose of the tool (scenarios, development stages, activities, and qualities/constraints being addressed) and the

Information about limb positions and movements consists of input from visual, vestibular, cutaneous, muscular, tendinous and joint receptors, but the relative contribution from each type and location of receptors is not known. The aim of this study was: a) to measure the contribution from visual control on extremity function, as measured with a one-leg hop test in healthy persons, in patients with

The removal of color and chemical oxygen demand (COD) from simulated dye wastewater containing Acid Orange II was experimentally investigated using coagulation-electrooxidation. Two kinds of coagulation methods, ferrous-mediated coagulation and electrocoagulation were tested as pretreatment. The electrooxidation was carried out in a cell with a three-phase three-dimensional electrode using granula

Popular Abstract in Swedish Byggandet av en järnvägstunnel genom Hallandsås har kommit att innebära ingrepp i och förändring av den traditionella landskapsbilden. Storskaliga och industriellt betonade infrastrukturprojekt är därför, ur lokalsamhällets perspektiv, inte bara en fråga om eventuella nya arbetstillfällen, modernisering och utveckling. Baksidan kan vara att hembygdens specifika och omisA major trend in facility siting research focuses on economic and psychological aspects of land-use regarding the location of potentially hazardous technological facilities including storage for high-level radioactive waste, landfills, chemical plants, large-scale dams, or waste incinerators. Such facilities frequently have profound environmental impact and are often understood by local citizens a

The gamma decay of the 12(+) yrast trap in Fe-52 has been measured for the first time. The two E4 gamma-branches to the 8(+) states are hindered with respect to other B(E4) reduced transition probabilities measured in the f(7/2) shell. The interpretation of the data is given in the full pf shell model framework, comparing the results obtained with different residual interactions. It is shown that

In the title compound, C18H10N2S2, a crystallographic mirror plane passes through the two S atoms. The pentacyclic ring system is folded along the S-S vector and the central dithiine ring adopts a boat conformation.

Albumin concentration in a morning urine sample was analyzed in a cross-sectional study in 476 insulin-dependent diabetic patients. The following groups of patients were defined: A) normal urinary albumin (urine albumin less than 12.5 mg/L); B) high normal albuminuria (12.5-30 mg/L); C) microalbuminuria, ie, incipient nephropathy (31-299 mg/L); and D) clinical nephropathy (greater than or equal to

En översikt över gudsrikestanken i Bibeln samt över diskussioner som förts angående gudsrikestanken från Immanuel Kant fram till nutiden

Radiative lifetimes of nine out of the twelve 4f(13)6p levels in Yb III have been measured, seven of these for the first time. A Penning discharge lamp is introduced as a continuous plasma source, in which the lifetimes are determined with the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence technique by pumping from metastable 5d and 6s levels. Spectra of the same source are recorded with a Fourier-trans

The response of the liquid scintillator array Nordball to neutrons in the energy range 1.5 < T-n < 10 MeV has been measured by time of flight using a Cf-252 fission source. Fission fragments were detected by means of a thin-film plastic scintillator. The measured differential and integral neutron detection efficiencies agree well with predictions of a Monte Carlo simulation of the detector which m
