Popular Abstract in Swedish Sammanfattning Bengt Lidforss (1868–1913) växte upp i ett konservativt professorshem i Lund. Han var mycket intelligent, och till att börja med var han också en lika skötsam som framgångsrik student. Han tog en omfattande och mycket uppmärksammad filosofie kandidatexamen redan vid 19 års ålder. Karriären borde alltså ha gått spikrakt fram till professuren i botanik, meBengt Lidforss (1868-1913) was professor of botany between 1910 and 1913. But after the turn of the century he also emerged as a charismatic leader within the Swedish working-class movement. He became one of its foremost publicists. In the social democratic newspaper Arbetet in Malmö he wrote about natural sciences but also about political, philosophical and literary issues. As a literary critic

In the paper, we consider the problem of routing and bandwidth allocation in networks that support elastic traffic. We assume that the bandwidth demand between each source-destination (S-D) pair is specified in terms of a minimum and maximum value, and a set of flows between each S-D pair is allowed to realize these demands. (We say that a set of flows realizes the demand associated with an S-D pa

How should the development of creativity be approached? Many accounts of children’s creativity focus on the relation between creativity and pretend play, placing make-believe and the mental exploration of possible scenarios about the world at the fore. Often divergent thinking and story-telling are used to measure creativity with fluency, originality, and flexibility as indicators. I will argue th

Abstract in Undetermined Samtalsanalytisk studie som ger metodisk kunskap om jourläkares medicinska frågeprocedurer i samtal med diabetiker efter insulinkoma samt hur ambulanssjuksköterskor och jourläkare sambedömer och kommer fram till ett medicinskt beslut i relation till ambulansriktlinjer.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Helicobacter pylori is the major causative agent in peptic ulcer disease and is strongly implicated in the development of gastric cancer. It has also been linked, less strongly, to cardiovascular disease. The mechanisms by which certain Strains of H pylon induce platelet aggregation through interactions with platelet glycoprotein 1b have been previously described. METHODS: In

Emerging lines of evidence indicate that the cutaneous human papillomavirus (HPV) types that belong to the genus Betapapillomavirus (beta HPV) are involved in the development of nonmelanoma skin cancer. Unlike the situation for mucosal HPV types, highly sensitive and reliable methods to identify characterized cutaneous HPV types in a single assay are limited. Here, we describe a novel one-shot met

A wide range of factors shapes irrigation institutions and collective action with regard to irrigation. They include the distribution of land across irrigation command areas and across classes, land tenure systems, access to new technology such as bore wells, the availability and cost of electricity and other energy sources for lifting groundwater, and, above all, state policies related to irrigat

BACKGROUND: Alcohol screening scores 5 on the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test–Consumption (AUDIT-C) up to a year before surgery have been associated with postoperative complications, but the association with postoperative health care use is unknown. This study evaluated whether AUDIT-C scores in the year before surgery were associated with postoperative hospital length of stay, total ICU

Popular Abstract in Swedish Inom svensk mjölkproduktion förekommer en hög frekvens av belastningsbesvär. Vid jämförelser mellan manliga och kvinnliga mjölkare har det visat sig vara stora skillnader avseende besvärsförekomst. Kvinnorna har rapporterat högre frekvens av problem i nästan alla kroppsdelar jämfört med männen. Dessutom har andelen hand- och handledsbesvär visat sig vara anmärkningsvärdThe aims of the thesis were to investigate the prevalence of the upper extremity musculoskeletal disorders in female milkers in relation to other occupational groups; to clarify the relationship between disorders and work environment, psychosocial and life style factors; to compare in a prospective study, pain, ache and discomfort reported by a questionnaire with clinical symptoms and sign; to exa

In recent years, street art has become embedded in popular culture and received growing attention from the art market and art institutions. Work by street artists has entered galleries, auction houses and museums, and some artists have been given the opportunity to create large-scale sanctioned public art projects. Simultaneously, widespread photographic documentation of street artworks and the ci

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den här avhandlingen, vars kontext är staden Jönköping – känd som Smålands Jerusalem – och dess omnejd, vill besvara frågan: Hur utformades och användes berättelsen om missionen i Kina för att åstadkomma och upprätthålla missionsvänskapets hängivenhet? Det var vid skiftet mellan 1880- och 1890-talen, under växande arbetslöshet, bostadsnöd och fattigdom, med konfrontatioThis thesis intends to answer the question: How was the narrative of the mission in China formulated and used to engender and sustain the fervour of the friends of the mission in the 1890s? It was at this time, with growing unemployment, lack of housing, and of poverty – a time when new and challenging ideas emerge – that the interest in the missions to China awoke. The context of the missionary n

During sexual transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), macrophages are initial targets for HIV infection. Secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI) has been shown to protect against HIV infection of macrophages through interactions with annexin A2 (A2), which is found on the macrophage cell surface as a heterotetramer (A2t) consisting of A2 and S100A10. Therefore, we investigated po

Introduction: The spatial peaks QRS-T angle accurately distinguishes children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy from their healthy counterparts. The spatial peaks QRS-T angle is also useful in risk stratification for ventricular arrhythmias. We hypothesised that the spatial peaks QRS-T angle would be useful for the prediction of ventricular arrhythmias in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients under

Many patients with asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) routinely receive a combination of an inhaled bronchodilator and anti-inflammatory glucocorticosteroid, but those with severe disease often respond poorly to these classes of drug. We assessed the efficacy and safety of a novel inhaled dual phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) and PDE4 inhibitor, RPL554 for its ability to act as a bro

Medical X-ray imaging is the largest source of radiation exposure to the population from artificial sources. Computed tomography (CT) contributes with 50-80 % of that radiation. About 660 000 CT examinations (2005) are done in Sweden every year. A CT examination gives a mean effective dose of 5 mSv, which is about 10 times higher than for a corresponding conventional X-ray investigation. This pres

Denna uppsats bygger på forskning inom den komplexa juridiska situationen bakom EU’s externa agerande och konflikten mellan externa och interna juridiska spörsmål inom områden med delad kompetens inom Unionen. EU’s lagstiftning, genom sin egen struktur, har en unik position inom hierarkin för rättskällor. Av de i uppsatsen presenterade rättsfallen och dokumentationen i övrigt kan man utläsa att deThis thesis is based on research into the area of the complex legal situation behind EU’s external affairs with the conflict between external and internal legal matters in regards to the area of shared competences within the Union. EU legislation, by its own structure, has a unique position in the hierarchy of laws. As can be seen by case law and documentation presented here it also contains its o

Värdepappershandel tillsammans med annan finansiell verksamhet har undantagits från mervärdesskatteplikt inom EU sedan 1977, när Direktivet 77/388/EEC lagstiftades. Ursprungligen stadgades undantaget för dessa finansiella tjänster på grund av skattetekniska problem som uppkommer vid framställande av det beskattningsbara underlaget. Direktivet, som sedermera har ersatts av Direktivet 2006/112/EC (tTrade in securities along with other financial activities has been enjoying the VAT exempt status within the EU since 1977, when Directive 77/388/EEC was passed. The VAT exemption for the financial services was originally enacted due to the difficulties relating to defining the taxable amount for the VAT purposes. The mentioned Directive, which has consequently been replaced by Directive 2006/112/
