I denna rapport redovisas populationstrender för 175 svenska fågelarter för åren 1975–2010. Fåglarna har räknats på vintern och på sommaren enligt strikt standardiserade metoder. Sommar- respektive vinterpunktrutter har räknats sedan 1975, i huvudsak i södra Sverige. Standardrutterna räknas också på sommaren men täcker hela Sverige. De har räknats sedan 1996. Vintern 2009/2010 räknades nästan 300 We present the results of the Swedish Bird Survey, run by the Department of Biology, Lund University, as a part of the National Monitoring Programme of the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency. The results for 2010 include data from 622 winter point count routes in 2009/2010 (35th winter), of which 281 were carried out during the Christmas/New Year count and 262 summer point count routes (36th

The steadily increasing prevalence of diabetes constitutes a major health problem. By the year 2025, the prevalence of diabetes is estimated to be as high as 5.4 %. This is to be compared with reports from Swedish coronary care units, which suggest that as many as 66 % of the patients admitted in fact have previously undiagnosed diabetes or pre-diabetes (impaired glucose tolerance) 1. Cardiovascul

Popular Abstract in Swedish Stroke (även kallat slaganfall) är den tredje vanligaste dödsorsaken efter hjärtsjukdom och cancer i stora delar av världen. Strokesjukdomen består av blodpropp (hjärninfarkt), blödning i hjärnan (intracerebral blödning) eller blödning i dess hinnor (subaraknoidal blödning). Stroke definieras enligt WHO som snabbt påkomna neurologiska symptom (t.ex. förlamning, talsvåriBackground: Stroke is a major cause of death and disability. Investigations of the epidemiological trends for stroke might result in better understanding of stroke pathogenesis and prevention. Methods: The trends of first-ever stroke incidence and survival over 3 time periods (1983-85, 1993-95 and 2001/2002) in Lund-Orup health care district were studied. The first 2 study periods were retrospect

Popular Abstract in Swedish Förekomsten av hudcancer ökar i ljushyade befolkningsgrupper och hudcancer tillhör de cancergrupper som ökar mest i Sverige. De tre vanligaste formerna av hudcancer är basalcellscancer, skivepitelcancer och malignt melanom. Under 2013 utgjorde skivepitelcancer och malignt melanom ca 16 % av alla cancerfall som rapporterades in till Svenska Cancerregistret; över 6 000 faSkin cancer incidence is increasing in fair-skinned populations. The three most common skin cancers are basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and malignant melanoma (MM). A correct diagnosis is crucial for an efficient and tailored treatment for the skin cancer patient. The purpose of this thesis was to evaluate different aspects of the preoperative diagnosis of skin cancer. Th

Popular Abstract in Swedish Gastroesofageal refluxsjukdom är ett tillstånd som kännetecknas av att magsyra åker upp i matstrupen (reflux). Reflux är ett normalt fenomen som förekommer hos alla individer utan att orsaka symtom eller vävnadsskador. Hur detta normaltillstånd utvecklas till ett sjukdomstillstånd är ej helt klarlagt. Reflux förhindras normalt av en barriär vid övergången mellan matstruThere is a persisting controversy concerning the definition, etiology and pathogenesis of Barrett's esophagus. The dramatic and parallel increase in the incidence of esophageal and junctional adenocarcinoma over the past decades justifies an evaluation of the pathophysiology of premalignant metaplastic changes of the esophagus and the gastroesophageal junction. Patients were evaluated with upper G

Abstract - Vol. I In this Volume of the thesis, which consists of two volumes, a risk analysis framework for application in the maritime transport system of packaged dangerous goods (PDG) is presented. In many countries, dangerous goods risks have been ranked high among public concerns. Such concerns are mainly due to the increasing volume of dangerous goods, human safety and health and environme

Currently, over 100 high-volume chemicals have been classified as endocrine disrupters. One of these is nonylphenol, which was used as the model compound in this study. This substance originates mainly from the degradation of non-ionic surfactants (nonylphenol ethoxylates) which are widely used in industrial and domestic applications. Hence, nonylphenol is widespread in the environment. Under anae

Popular Abstract in Swedish I den här avhandlingen studeras de elektriska egenskaperna hos nanotrådar av halvledarmaterial. En halvledare är ett mellanting av en ledare och en isolator, där den elektriska ledningsförmågan kan styras både genom att förorena materialet med andra ämnen och genom att påverka materialet med ett elektriskt fält. I princip all modern elektronik bygger på komponenter av hThis thesis focuses on electron transport in semiconductor InAs/InP and InSb nanowire quantum devices. However, first the temperature dependence of classical charge transport in InSb nanowire field-effect transistors, FETs, is characterized, using InAs nanowire FETs as a reference. We find that the InSb FETs, in the same way as InAs FETs, are n-type with good current saturation and low voltage ope

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund Kroppen har många olika försvarsmekanismer för att skydda sig mot angrepp av olika slag. Bland försvarsmekanismerna i immunförsvaret finns förmågan att bilda antikroppar. Antikroppar, eller immunglobulin, är lösliga protein och består av fyra polypeptidkedjor som hålls samman av svavelbindningar. Dessa kedjor har en variabel ände som ger upphov till molekylensAntibodies are important protein structures in the immunological defence. Occasionally the regulation of the production of these antibodies fails and antibodies directed against self structures are produced in large scale. Antibody production can also complicate or make transfusions and transplantations impossible. Purified protein A from Staphylococcus aureus immobilised to beaded agarose can ads

Popular Abstract in Swedish Reaktiva syreföreningar s.k. ROS uppstår naturligt i den syrerelaterade metabolismen eller i andra processer och den orsakar skador på essentiella föreningar i cellen såsom DNA, proteiner och fetter. Denna oxidation ligger till grund för många allvarliga sjukdomar hos människor som t.ex. viss typ av cancer och Alzheimers och man tror även att den ligger bakom andra åkomReactive oxygen species (ROS) consisting of various oxygen-based free radicals as well as other reactive non-radical species produced in O2-related metabolism or through other processes are involved in the oxidation of such vital biomolecules as DNA, proteins and lipids. The types of oxidation represented here are known to cause many different diseases and disorders in human beings, such as cancer
