Popular Abstract in Swedish I de flesta organ i människokroppen pågår en ständig förnyelse av celler för att kompensera för gamla cellers bortfall som en följd av skador och naturlig död. En ensam cell kan på egen hand kopiera allt sitt DNA och därmed all information den bär på, för att därefter dela sig och skapa en exakt identisk kopia av sig själv. Kodat i DNA finns instruktionerna för hur en oTelomeres are the end-structures of linear chromosome which are crucial for maintaining genome integrity. The telomeres prevent the DNA-repair machinery from recognizing the chromosome ends as double-strand breaks and from end-to-end fusions. The telomeres are composed by short repetitive units of TG-rich DNA and associated specialized telomere-binding proteins. Due to that replication only can

This paper discusses verbs like help, that takes dative case on its object in the Germanic languages with morphological case. In this paper I discuss whether the loss of morphological case in English and mainland Scandinavian had any influence on the argument structure of the VP headed by help-type of verbs.

This paper investigates the pricing bias in the Swedish OMX-Index Option market and how a stochastic volatility affects European call option prices. The market is purely European and without dividends for the period studied. A CIR square-root process for the volatility is estimated with non-linear least square minimization, and stochastic volatility option prices are calculated through Fourier-Inv

In the present thesis, I investigate the hierarchical structure of morphometric and molecular diversity within and between the Nordic dogroses (Rosa Sect. Caninae, Rosaceae). I also investigate patterns of geographic differentiation and taxonomic relationships within the group. The dogroses are characterized by a unique genetic system, the so-called ”canina meiosis” that leads to an uneven allocat

This chapter reflects on how experiences from aural-based musical practice, especially 'chordal thinking', may influence and facilitate pianists' interpretation of musical scores.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Swedish summary Stroke, hjärtstopp, skallskada och drunkningstillbud drabbar varje år tusentals människor i Sverige. Dessa åkommor leder snabbt till obotliga hjärnskador om de ej behandlas. Hjärnans nervceller är speciellt känsliga för brist på syre och socker, vilket bland annat beror på att ämnesomsättningen är extremt hög i hjärnan och på att energireserverna är myckBrain damage from ischemia-reperfusion and hypoglycemia are major causes of morbidity and mortality. Therapeutic strategies include hypothermia, glutamate-receptor blockade, immunosuppression and lately treatment aiming at preserving mitochondrial integrity and function. Mitochondria are the main producers of cellular energy but mitochondria also participate in cell signaling and take an active pa

This study explores the textual world of Hosea 4-14. To this end it uses a melhod informed by modern metaphor theory. At the outset, the hypothesis that chapters 4-14 in the book of Hosea constitute a coherent literary composition is submitted. The perspectival theory advanced by Eva F. Kittay is selected as a theoretical basis for the analysis. This theory is iupplemented by mslghts derived from

Popular Abstract in Swedish Diabetesfoten - Samhällsekonomiska kostnader, hälsoekonomiska aspekter, prevention och livskvalitet Orsak och förekomst. Fotsår är en relativt vanlig komplikation hos personer med diabetes. Ungefär 15% av alla vuxna diabetiker drabbas någon gång av fotsår. Orsakerna till att sår uppstår beror på en ökad risk för nervskador och kärlproblem hos diabetiker. Nervskadorna yThe overall aims were to investigate the economic consequences of foot complications in diabetic patients, to measure the influence of diabetic foot complications on health-related quality of life (HRQL), and to analyse the cost-effectiveness of interventions to prevent foot ulcers and lower extremity amputations (LEA). The economic consequences of foot ulcers and LEA are large both in a short an

In this thesis we perform phenomenological studies of Quantum Chromodynamics, as manifested in deeply inelastic electron-proton (DIS) and high-energy hadron-hadron interactions. Most of the results are obtained using the Linked Dipole Chain model (LDC). This model was originally developed for studies of DIS and is formulated in terms of kT-factorization and un-integrated parton distribution funct

Popular Abstract in Swedish Neuoroblastom är en av de tumörformer som oftast drabbar små barn. Eftersom tumörer lyckligtvis är relativt ovanliga hos barn drabbas inte fler än i genomsnitt 14 barn årligen av neuroblastom i Sverige. Tyvärr finns dock, trots den effektiva behandling som kunnat arbetas fram för många andra barncancerformer, idag ingen verksam behandling att tillgå för så många som hälNeuroblastoma is a tumor of sympathetic nervous system derivation, mostly afflicting young children. This thesis is focused on a group of receptor proteins for neurotrophic factors, the Trk family, and on N-Myc, a transcription factor, all important in the formation of the sympathetic nervous system as well as in determining neuroblastoma patient outcome. Expression of trkA and trkC is linked to f

The present contribution describes some simulations of the observation of binaries with GAIA. The results do not differ fundamentally from earlier estimates, e.g. in GAIA's Concepts and Technology Study Report (ESA-2000-SCI-4), but they are based on more realistic assumptions and much more extensive numerical work.
