The A=51 Mirror Nuclei 51Fe and 51Mn

Eighteen previously unknown gamma -ray transitions were identified in the T-z = -1/2 nucleus Fe-51 following the fusion-evaporation reaction S-32(Si-28,2 alpha 1n)Fe-51. The lever scheme reaches the fully aligned I-pi = 27/2(-) terminating state of the five holes in the f(7/2) shell. The 17/2(-) state was found to be isomeric, and the lifetime was measured to be 2.87 ns. The mirror symmetry of Fe-

Reading in children of primary school age - A comparative study of children with hearing impairment and children with specific language impairment

Background. Seigneuric et al. (2000) showed that reading comprehension in primary school age children with typical language development (TD) is strongly dependent on working memory. The purpose of the present study was to compare reading comprehension in primary school age children with mild/moderate hearing impairment (HI) and children with a preschool diagnosis of specific language impairment (S

On the induction and function of Foxp3+ regulatory T cells

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vårt immunsystem har utvecklats för att skydda våra vävnader och organ vid infektioner, cancerväxt och andra skador. Immunsystemet utgörs av en mängd olika celltyper som på olika sätt specifikt, främst genom uttryck av receptorer på cellytan, reagerar på främmande strukturer, från t ex patogener eller tumör celler eller andra substanser som signalerar stress eller fara.This thesis is based on three original papers with the overall aim to study the mechanisms of induction and function of Foxp3+CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells. Regulatory T cells induce down-modulation of costimulatory molecules CD80 and CD86 on dendritic cells in vitro. In the first study we further show that the extent of down-modulation is functionally significant since regulatory T cell condition

My house is my husband - A Kenyan Study of Women´s Access to Land and Housing

This thesis explores women’s access to property in Kenya. It consists of three parts. The first gives the Kenyan background, the theoretical and methodological approach. The second presents the findings in relation to the social construct of the gender and elaborates them in the contexts of women´s subsistence work, colonization and its aftermath and women´s formation of organizations. The third p

A new liposomal contrast medium for CT of the liver. An imaging study in a rabbit tumour model

A new type of liposomal liver-specific contrast medium was studied in an experimental tumour model. Rabbits were inoculated with VX2-carcinoma directly in the liver of laparotomy. CT studies were carried out 14 days after inoculation. The liver-specific contrast medium consisted of a suspension of liposomes in a 100 mg I/ml iodixanol solution, with equal amounts of encapsulated and nonencapsulated

Maternal cerebral Doppler velocimetry before, during, and after a normal pregnancy: a longitudinal study

Objective. Our purpose was to determine normative data for maternal cerebral blood flow indices. Study design. A prospective longitudinal study. Methods. The maternal middle cerebral artery was examined by transcranial Doppler ultrasound in 14 healthy women before (0-10 months prior to conception) and during pregnancy ( at 8, 15, 22, 29, and 36 weeks of gestation), and twice after delivery ( at 8
