OBJECTIVE: In order to elucidate why spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) develop larger brain infarcts distal to an arterial occlusion than normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats, we determined the surface and volume densities of cerebral capillaries, and the regional cerebral blood flow distal to an arterial occlusion in SHR and WKY rats. DESIGN: Occlusion of the middle cerebral artery was chosen

Background: S100B, a protein abundant in astroglial cells within the central nervous system, has been shown to increase in cerebrospinal fluid and serum after various neurologic diseases. However, the cerebral specificity of S100B has been questioned. This study aims to show serum S100B levels after uncomplicated bone fractures in patients without current or prior neurologic diseases. Methods: Blo

The dynamics of electron transfer within an excited ruthenium complex as well as between a ruthenium complex and a nanostructured TiO2 film is addressed on the core hole few femtosecond lifetime scale. The ruthenium complexes studied are Ru(bpy)32+·2Cl− (where bpy is 2,2′-bipyridine) as well as Ru(bpy)2(dcbpyH2)2+·2PF6− (dcbpy is 4,4′-dicarboxy-2,2′-bypyridine) anchored to a nanostructured TiO2 su

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det övergripande syftet för denna avhandling är att bland patrullerande poliser undersöka förekomst och karaktär av en yrkeskultur, som går utöver eller står i motsättning till polisens officiellt sanktionerade samhällsmandat bl.a. i termer av den inriktning, de prioriteringar och det regelverk som omger polisarbetet. Begreppet yrkeskultur står här för kollektiva mönsteUsing ethnographical methods, this thesis examines the prevalence and character of an occupational culture among patrolling police in terms of frames of reference, conduct and attitudes, a culture which overrides or is in opposition to the official mandate of the police force. It is suggested that the occupational culture of the patrolling police should not be regarded as a homogenous culture but

Methods. Among 985 Olmsted County, Minnesota, residents who experienced an osteoporotic fracture (distal forearm, humerus, clavicle/scapula/sternum, ribs, vertebrae, pelvis, hip, other femur or tibia/fibula [the latter in women only]), we estimated the incremental cost of direct medical care in the following year compared with age- and sex-matched controls without a fracture randomly sampled from

The review highlights the difficulties with Lehtsaar's method.

An attempt to modify perception and evaluation of student teachers with the aid of self-confrontation mediated with video recordings on one hand and conventional tutoring on the other is the subject of this report. Background to the experiment, a detailed description of the layout and a presentation of the measuring instruments are given together with evaluation of the internal and external validi

Sommaren 2006 genomförde Kulturen i Lund en arkeologisk undersökning i en del av byn Genarp i Skåne. Redan under äldre järnålder förekom mänsklig aktivitet på platsen, bl.a. gjordes fyndet en ugn för järnframställning. Permanent bosättning på platsen har funnits sedan 1000-talet. Bebyggelse framkom i form av ett grophus och flera stolpburna hus. Fyndet av en felbränd keramikskärva utgör indikation

Dose calculations with a collapsed cone algorithm implemented in a clinical treatment planning system have been studied. The algorithm has been evaluated in homogeneous as well as in heterogeneous media, and the results have been compared to measurements and Monte Carlo simulations. Commonly encountered clinical beam configurations as well as more complex geometries have been pursued to test the l

Popular Abstract in Swedish Idag behöver människor som talar, tänker och lever på olika sätt mer än någonsin kunna kommunicera med varandra. Ett självklart språk för dessa kontakter är för en svensk ofta engelska. Det lär sig varje elev under minst tio år i vår skola. Men för att kunna förstå andra bättre, fordras också att vi blir medvetna om skilda sätt att uppfatta världen omkring oss. Vi behövThe aim of this study is to examine the prospects of developing intercultural understanding through English as a foreign language (EFL) education in the Swedish comprehensive school. This overall aim is split into two subordinate aims: (1) to analyse and problematize the intercultural dimension of EFL as three discourses, research discourse, authority discourse and teacher discourse; (2) to relate

The antigen-binding site, the paratope, of an antibody can be seen as being composed of a central core and a more peripheral area situated at its rim. Naturally these regions acquire their diversity using different mechanisms and they also have dissimilar roles, as they contribute differently to the binding interaction. Also, antigens of different size utilize these regions differently; while hapt
