Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling handlar om byggnadsarkeologiska sätt att närma sig historiska byggnader. Syftet är att visa hur byggnadsarkeologin kan förnyas och utvecklas. Motivet är min uppfattning att byggnadsarkeologin inte till fullo utnyttjar de stående byggnadernas potential som historiska källor, vilket framför allt beror på ett traditionsbundet synsätt, som innebär att man nThis dissertation is about the way buildings archaeology approaches historical buildings. The aim is to show how buildings archaeology can be renewed and developed. The motivation is my belief that buildings archaeology does not fully utilize the potential of standing buildings as historical sources, which is mainly due to the traditional outlook on buildings as two-dimensional objects. When three

BACKGROUND: Alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency increases the risk of emphysema, especially in smokers. In 1972-1974, all 200,000 Swedish new-born infants were screened for AAT deficiency and individuals with severe (PiZZ) and moderate (PiSZ) deficiency have been followed-up regularly. The aim of the present study was to examine their lung function at the age of 30years, comparing them to a group

Much attention is nowadays devoted to waste management. The objective of this work is to show how commonly known business economic models and methods, as well as the Polluter- Pays Principle, can be applied to waste management in general and to waste fractionation in particular, so as to facilitate environmental optimisation of industrial and construction waste fractionation. In discussing the fun

The extracellular matrix consists of structural macromolecules and other proteins with regulatory functions. An important family of the latter class of molecules found in most tissues is the small leucine-rich repeat proteins (SLRPs). We have previously shown that the SLRP fibromodulin binds directly to C1q and activates the classical pathway of complement. In the present study we further examine

The multiphoton ionization of CO2 has been studied using a laser of 794 nm WaVelength and focused intensities in the region of 10(16) W cm-2. The kinetic energy distributions and ion yields obtained using time-of-flight spectroscopy coupled with covariance mapping can be interpreted most simply in terms of charge-symmetric fragmentation, the strongest channel being O2+ + C2+ + O2+. These results a

Background Chronic immune stimulation appears to be associated with lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL)-Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM); however, available information is sparse. We conducted, to our knowledge, the most comprehensive study to date to evaluate associations between a personal or family history of many immune-related and/or inflammatory disorders and the subsequent risk of LPL-WM. Me

This case report illustrates a very rare and very serious complication during ongoing pregnancy, namely spontaneous rupture of the uterine artery. Late diagnosis increases the morbidity and mortality for the foetus as well as for the pregnant woman. Angiography gives the diagnosis. In the differential diagnosis of acute abdomen in a pregnant woman spontaneous rupture of the uterine arteries as the
