The aim of this study has been to investigate the self-diffusion behaviour in polymer solutions and in surfactant solutions using the pulsed field gradient (PFG) NMR technique. The NMR self-diffusion experiment was shown to provide detailed information in complex surfactant mixtures. In particular, the microemulsion phase and the hexagonal phase of Didodecyldimethylammoniumsulphate (DDAS) formed

Naturen för mig. Nutida röster och kulturella perspektiv är en bok som behandlar människors vardagliga förhållningssätt till naturen i vår egen tid. Boken handlar om naturen utifrån kulturvetenskapliga perspektiv och sätter människan i centrum. De erfarenheter, tankar och berättelser som boken bygger på, vittnar om att detta ämne för många är stort och svårgripbart. Till stor del bygger boken på

Representations of the Female Swedish-American: From the Drag Maid to the Bikini Girl In Swedish films from above all the 1930s, the Swedish American visitor is a rather recurrent guest. Interestingly, the Swedish-American women are often portrayed much more negatively than their male counterpart, a fact that becomes visibly apparent in for example dress and role behaviour. The Swedish woman shou

Objectives: Various outcomes of cholinesterase inhibitor (ChEI) therapy have been observed in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). It is not clear whether the duration of treatment, type of ChEI, or dose affect mortality. We aimed to investigate the association between ChEI therapy and patient survival. Methods: The Swedish Alzheimer Treatment Study (SATS) is a prospective, observational, multicentre study t

Bluetooth is currently emerging as one of the most promising personal wireless network technologies. It is primarily designed as a cable replacement between for example a cell phone and a PDA. However the price/performance level also makes it a promising technology outside the office. The automation industry is currently showing interest in using Bluetooth for more industrial applications. However

BACKGROUND: Reduced forced expiratory volume (FEV(1)) and forced vital capacity (FVC) are risk factors for myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke. However, the relationship with incidence of heart failure (HF) is incompletely known. This population-based study explored whether reduced FEV(1) or FVC is associated with the incidence of hospitalisation for HF. METHODS: 20 998 men (mean age 43 years) w

Objective. To evaluate the effects on neonatal morbidity of a regional change in induction policy for post-term pregnancy from 43(+0) to 42(+0) gestational weeks (GWs). Design and setting. Nationwide retrospective register study between 2000 and 2007. Population. All singleton pregnancies with a gestational age of >41(+2) GW (n= 119,198). Methods. All Swedish counties were divided into three group
