Stopped-flow Light Scattering Analysis of Red Blood Cell Glycerol Permeability

Stopped-Flow Light Scattering (SFLS) is a method devised to analyze the kinetics of fast chemical reactions that result in a significant change of the average molecular weight and/or in the shape of the reaction substrates. Several modifications of the original stopped-flow system have been made leading to a significant extension of its technical applications. One of these modifications allows the

Adherence to dietary guidelines, and the risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis-results from a nested case-control study

OBJECTIVES: To examine the relation between adherence to dietary guidelines and the risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis (RA).METHODS: Participants in the Malmö Diet and Cancer study (MDCS) cohort diagnosed with RA were identified through register linkage and validated in a structured review. Four controls per case were selected, matched for sex, year of birth, and year of inclusion in the MDCS

A primal-dual finite element method for scalar and vectorial total variation minimization

Based on the Fenchel duality we build a primal-dual framework for minimizing a general functional consisting of a combined L1 and L2 data-fidelity term and a scalar or vectorial total variation regularisation term. The minimization is performed over the space of functions of bounded variations and appropriate discrete subspaces. We analyze the existence and uniqueness of solutions of the respectiv

The Governance of Global Innovation Systems : Putting Knowledge in Context

Technological innovation increasingly depends on multiscalar actor networks and institutions. However, the developers of many conceptual frameworks explaining innovation success have paid only limited attention to this new reality, due to their focus on regions and countries as agents that shape innovation governance and as containers that provide institutional conditions for innovation success. I

An Epilogue

I den bästa av världar [In the best of worlds] Den bästa av dagar [The best of days] Vi slapp ju nazister [We did not have Nazis] Så vad ska vi klaga? [So what should we complain about?] In the above poem, trans* activist and spoken word poet Yolanda Aurora Bohm Ramirez (2018) both names the ways the lives of specific groups of people in Sweden are threatened by the increasing neo-Nazi violence an

Kidney Disease in Childhood Cancer Survivors

Chronic glomerular and tubular nephrotoxicity has been reported in up to 50% and 25%, respectively, of children and adolescents treated with ifosfamide and up to 60% and 30% of those given cisplatin. Up to 35% of children have proteinuria and microalbuminuria, implying chronic glomerular damage, after unilateral nephrectomy for a renal tumour. We are still learning about nephrotoxicity due to the

Networks of Survivorship Care for Young Cancer Patients

Forty-two chapters have been structured according to the toxicities in cancer entities, and the late effects and follow-up proposals have been discussed by European and American authors. Cancer diseases in children, adolescents and young adults are treated within specific treatment protocols and can produce different late effects that will have to be cared for by specific follow-up recommendations

Genotoxicity by rapeseed methyl ester and hydrogenated vegetable oil combustion exhaust products in lung epithelial (A549) cells

Biofuel is an attractive substitute for petrodiesel because of its lower environmental footprint. For instance, the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) emission per fuel energy content is lower for rapeseed methyl ester (RME) than for petrodiesel. The present study assesses genotoxicity by extractable organic matter (EOM) of exhaust particles from combustion of petrodiesel, RME and hydrogenated

Examination of Water Damage Statistics in the Nordic Countries to Identify and Suggest Preventive Cost-effective and Sustainable Measures during the Maintenance and Operation Phase

Water damage in the indoor environment is a rising issue within Nordic countries with about 90 000 cases in appx. 6.5 millioninsurance is reported annually in Sweden, and corresponding numbers are in Denmark and Norway. The question thenbecomes what type of measures residents, building managers, and insurance companies can take in the maintenance andoperation phase to decrease the impact of the wa

Lunds Kommun Klimatpolitiska råd: Rapport 2023

Förra året utsåg EU-kommissionen Lund till en av 100europeiska städer som ska bli klimatneutrala till 2030.Det är en utmärkelse som förpliktigar, särskilt i en tiddå klimatpolitiken på nationell nivå tappar styrfart(Klimatpolitiska rådet 2023). Lunds kommun har redangjort mycket som är bra, men både kan och behövergöra mer för att uppnå egna klimatmål och för att varaett föredöme för andra städer

Introducing Trace as an Embodied Approach to the Novel in English

Trace is a versatile concept with a wide spectrum of applications beyond detective fiction. Indeed, trace offers a key for gauging novel reading experiences. The collected articles exemplify that the qualities of trace, as conceptualised by Paul Ricoeur’s hermeneutical phenomenology, help to unfold the relation of embodiment and the novel. The essays examine the manner in which trace inside the no
