The main objective of this PhD thesis, "An Aesthetics of Sexual Difference? On Art and Artistry in Swedish Handicraft of the 1920s and 1990s", is to investigate the field of handicraft in relation to a wider field of cultural production. Its aim is to contribute to a mapping of interrelated outlines of handicraft and art based on empirical studies of artistic creation in two local Swedish handicra
This work deals with different aspects of air movements in building components . The investigation shows to what degree the concept of fluid mechanics can be applied to problems concerning air flows in building Components. The applicable parts of fluid mechanics are presented as thoroughly as possible. Based on this concept, routines are outlined to make it possible to handle complex flow and pres
We showed earlier that over-expression of protein kinase C (PKC) epsilon induces neurite outgrowth. The effect is mediated by a region (PKC epsilon PSC1V3) encompassing the pseudosubstrate, the two C1 domains and part of the V3 region, and is independent of the catalytic activity of the enzyme. In this region, residues immediately N-terminal of the C1b domain are crucial for neurite outgrowth. How
Popular Abstract in Swedish Konstant produktion av blodceller i benmärgen krävs för att bibehålla normal syretransport i blodet, sårläkning och ett effektivt immunförsvar. Bakom denna produktion ligger hematopoetiska blodstamceller som regleras av en komplex interaktion mellan dem och deras omgivning. Varje blodstamcell kan med självförnyande celldelningar, där minst en dottercell bibehåller en stHematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are sufficient and required for life long production of all blood cell lineages. Steady state HSCs are largely quiescent and we demonstrate that the kinetics of HSC cell cycling are slower compared to more committed progenitor cells also during expansion and self-renewal ex vivo and in physiological conditions. Such slow kinetics during cell division might reflect a
Popular Abstract in Swedish De nu gällande trafikpolitiska principerna för kostnadsansvaret lades fast i 1988 års trafikpolitiska beslut (Regeringens proposition 1987/88:50 om trafikpolitiken inför 1990-talet). Utgångspunkten för kostnadsansvaret är trafikavgifter på samhällsekonomiska villkor med syfte att ge rätt beteendesignaler på transportområdet. Från denna utgångspunkt har kostnadsansvaret Transport is a key factor for economic growth. It has enabled both the economic scale of production and an increase in competition. No one can question this role of transportation. There is, however, a back-side to the coin: the environmental challenge. Present trends show that transportation is not compatible with sustainable development. The need to internalise the external effects from trans-po
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vad säger notbilden? Notation är av central betydelse i västerländsk tonal musik. Repertoarens utsträckning över flera århundraden gör det angeläget att studera hur musikaliskt innehåll medieras genom notation. I denna studie har strategiskt utvalda musikers sätt att ta sig an noterna till tonal musik undersökts. Slutsatser har dragits beträffande notbildens funktionerAbstract Centering on notation is a characteristic of Western tonal music. The printed scores are expected to provide the necessary information on musical expression. In this study, strategically selected contemporary musicians’ ways of under-standing the printed scores are investigated. All participants are thoroughly familiar with musical practice in Western tonal tradition. The intention is to
Popular Abstract in Swedish Bomärken har använts som ägarbeteckning och signatur i Norden in på 1800-talet, och i vissa reliktområden intill nutid. Bomärkena återfinns t.ex. i mantalslängder, jordaböcker och bouppteckningar, men även inskurna på äldre redskap, husgeråd och annat lösöre. Bomärkena har av somliga forskare ansetts ha utformats slumpvis, enbart med syftet att kunna skilja en bomärkes
Lyme borreliosis (LB) is the most common vector-borne disease in the northern hemisphere, and southern Sweden is a highly endemic area. In over 70% of the cases, LB is represented by the non-disseminated cutaneous form erythema migrans (EM). This thesis has its focus on EM from a primary health care perspective in southern Sweden, including aspects on epidemiology, the clinical picture, gender dif
INTRODUCTION: General practitioners are often interested in doing research but are hampered by lack of time and research training. Interpreting the results of others can also be difficult. For this reason a course in basic research methods for GPs was started in Sweden in 1989. It was originally aimed at GPs but was later extended to hospital physicians as well. The course is given regionally and
Palaeoecological methods were applied to peat and sediment cores recovered from one bog (Bråtamossen) and two lakes (Avegöl and Femtingagölen) in the Småland Uplands, southern Sweden. The general aim was to reconstruct the landuse and vegetation history for the last 6000 years in this agriculturally marginal region. The main technique was pollen analysis, which was complemented by mineral magnetic
This study describes the integrated sympathetic/metabolic control of capillary pressure (Pc) and filtration in cat skeletal muscle as studied during graded exercise and superimposed graded (2, 6 and 16 Hz) vasoconstrictor nerve excitation. The applied technique permitted simultaneous analysis of the underlying changes of resistance in the whole vascular bed (RT) and in its large-bore arterial resi
