Nocturia in the elderly. Aspects on epidemiology, pathogenesis, and antidiuretic treatment.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Nocturi, att vakna för att gå upp och tömma urinblåsan på natten, förekommer i alla åldrar hos kvinnor såväl som hos män. Prevalensen ökar med ökande ålder. Nocturi kan vara ett symptom på hjärtsvikt, okontrollerad diabetes mellitus, benign prostatahyperplasi och sömnapné. Den ökade förekomsten av nocturi hos äldre (65+) beror dock inte endast på högre sjuklighet. ÅldraAnalysis of nocturia questionnaires mailed to all persons aged 65 years or more in Tierp, a Swedish rural community, showed that the number of nocturnal voids was highly correlated with urge and incontinence. No correlation between nocturia and a known and treated hypertension, angina, congestive heart failure or diabetes mellitus was detected. Frequency-volume charts from elderly subjects with tw

Expressing ‘confirmation’ in Swedish: the interplay of word and utterance prosody

An exploratory study on the prosodic signaling of ‘confirmation’ in Swedish is presented. Pairs of subjects read short dialogs, constructed around selected target words, in a conversational style. A falling utterance intonation was found on the target word, and the signaling of word prosody (lexical pitch accent) appeared to be, to a certain degree, optional.

Mycorrhizal mycelia and their role in soil and plant communities

Interactions between mycorrhizas and soil microbial and faunal populations, including those between different mycorrhizal populations are discussed along with the nutritional and non-nutritional interactions between fungi and plant roots and their influence on the structure, development and functioning of plant communities. The discussions relate principally to vesicular-arbuscular and ecto-mycorr

Genetic mapping at 3-kilobase resolution reveals inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor 3 as a risk factor for type 1 diabetes in Sweden.

We mapped the genetic influences for type 1 diabetes (T1D), using 2,360 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers in the 4.4-Mb human major histocompatibility complex (MHC) locus and the adjacent 493 kb centromeric to the MHC, initially in a survey of 363 Swedish T1D cases and controls. We confirmed prior studies showing association with T1D in the MHC, most significantly near HLA-DR/DQ. In the

Control and Design of Computing Systems: What to Model and How

The application of feedback control to computing systems is a promising research area, but has to date been hindered by the almost unanimously perceived complexity in creating control-oriented system models. Computing systems are in fact considered very hard to describe with dynamic models allowing for simple and powerful control design tools, so that complex ones need bringing in to the detriment
