Popular Abstract in Swedish Systemisk lupus erythematosus (SLE) är en autoimmun reumatisk systemsjukdom som drabbar flera av kroppens olika organsystem, såsom rörelseapparat, hud och inre organ. Vidare ses en mångfald störningar i kroppens immunsystem. Sjukdomen drabbar oftast kvinnor. Vad som orsakar SLE är ännu så länge ofullständigt klarlagt, men man vet att yttre faktorer (miljöfaktorer) samveSystemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune disease in which environmental factors interact with genetic factors in the development of the disease process and evolution of clinical manifestations. In this thesis both exogenous factors and host factors were investigated, as well as important immunopathological aspects including involvement of immune complex (IC), the complement syste

The Danish national return-to-work (RTW) program aims to improve the management of municipal sickness benefit in Denmark. A study is currently ongoing to evaluate the RTW program. The purpose of this article is to describe the study protocol. The program includes 21 municipalities encompassing approximately 19 500 working-age adults on long-term sickness absence, regardless of reason for sickness

The topic of this thesis is the electro-mechanical oscillations which to some extent always are present in a power system. The demand of electric power is ever increasing. At the same time, the tolerance of disruptions in the power supply is decreasing. The deregulated market together with distributed generation have then pushed the system to operate during circumstances for which it was not desig

By exposing photosystem II (PSII) samples to an incrementing number of excitation flashes at room temperature, followed by freezing, we could compare the Mn-derived multiline EPR signal from the S-2 oxidation state as prepared by 1, 5, 10, and 25 flashes of light. While the S-2 multiline signals exhibited by these samples differed very little in spectral shape, a significant increase of the relaxa

We consider two interrelated tasks in a synchronous n-node ring: distributed constant colouring and local communication. We investigate the impact of the amount of knowledge available to nodes on the time of completing these tasks. Every node knows the labels of nodes up to a distance r from it, called the knowledge radius. In distributed constant colouring every node has to assign itself one out

Purpose. To investigate the structural development of the colloid phases generated during lipolysis of a lipid-based formulation in an in vitro lipolysis model, which simulates digestion in the small intestine. Materials and Methods. Small-Angle X-Ray scattering (SAXS) coupled with the in vitro lipolysis model which accurately reproduces the solubilizing environment in the gastrointestinal tract a

Aromatic side chains are attractive probes of protein dynamic, since they are often key residues in enzyme active sites and protein binding sites. Dynamic processes on microsecond to millisecond timescales can be studied by relaxation dispersion experiments that attenuate conformational exchange contributions to the transverse relaxation rate by varying the refocusing frequency of applied radio-fr

Stamcellsforskning har på senare tid lett till förhoppningar om att bota alla möjliga sorters sjukdomar. De stamceller som är mest flexibla och därför mest användbara finns i embryo. Att få tag på mänskliga embryon kan dock både vara dyrt och moraliskt problematiskt. Därför har forskare försökt att istället omprogrammera celler från vuxna individer. En sådan teknik som nyligen tagit fart är direktRegenerative medicine offers a great prospect for curing diseases. Scientists are using direct conversion to reprogram fibroblasts, a kind of skin cell, into neurons in an attempt to cure Parkinson's disease. Even though successful conversion has been done with embryonic cells, a more practical method for future treatment would be to reprogram cells directly from the adult individual. It has h

Detta project utfördes i samarbete med svenska förpackningsföretaget Tetra Pak Packaging Solutions AB. Deras huvuduppgift är att utveckla förpacknngsmaterial, processer och maskinlinjer som krävs för att producera laminatet, vilket är att flerskiktsmaterial som vanligtvis består av papper, plast och aluminium för att skapa en stark och skyddande barriär för flytande livsmedel. För att skapa laminaThis project was carried out in cooperation with Swedish packaging company Tetra Pak Packaging Solutions AB. Their main purpose is to develop the packaging material, process, and machine lines needed to produce the laminate, which is a multi-layered material typically made by combining paper, plastic, and aluminum to create a strong, protective barrier for liquid food packaging. In order to create

Deposition of ferroelectric hafnium zirconium oxide (HZO) on semiconductor samples with Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) has proven to be a viable method of production. But while the physical processes of ALD deposition is relatively well know, there exists some gaps in knowledge about different parameters for the ALD and the resulting depositions. This work is about analysing mainly how the purge ti

Using music as a tool for teaching a foreign language has been shown to positively affect the language learning process (Balčytytė-Kurtinienė, 2018; Cañete García et al., 2022; Heidari- Shahreza & Moinzadeh, 2012), and this essay suggests that authentic English songs can be used in the teaching of EFL in lower-secondary school in Sweden to efficiently meet many aspects of the syllabus.

Upphovsrätter ger upphov till både ekonomiska och ideella rättigheter. Den ideella rätten bygger på en tanke om att upphovsmän har ett starkt personligt intresse och en koppling till sina verk. Samma tanke ligger bakom det överlåtelseförbud som finns i 28 § lag (1960:729) om upphovsrätt till litterära och konstnärliga verk (URL). Förbudet gör det otillåtet för en förvärvare av en upphovsrätt att öCopyright is composed of two rights, the economic and moral rights. The moral rights are built on the thoughts that the creator of the copyright has a strong personal interest and a connection to its creation. It is the same thoughts that are behind the transfer prohibition in 28 § lag (1960:729) om upphovsrätt till litterära och konstnärliga verk (URL). The prohibition makes it illicit for the as

Robots have become important for the development of today’s society. They are known to obtain good accuracy and repeatability of tasks that either complement or replace human labour. Furthermore, as machine-learning is emerging in many technologies, it is important to consider the uncertainties that are introduced when this method is used in robotics. This work aims at developing and evaluating a

When an internet user opens a web page containing an advertising slot, how is it determined which ad is shown? Today, the most common software-based approach to trading advertising slots is real time bidding: as soon as the user begins to load the web page, an auction for the slot is held in real time, and the highest bidder gets to display their advertisement of choice. Auction bidding is perform

“Det viktigaste kriteriet för en graf är egentligen inte hur fort vi kan se ett resultat; det är snarare om vi genom användandet av en graf kan se något som hade varit svårare att se annars eller som inte hade alls kunnat ses."

Purpose: While the phenomenon of new product development (NPD) and cycle time in general is sufficiently covered in the literature, a clear picture of the NPD length in startups has not been available so far. Simultaneously, the literature emphasizes the entrepreneurial perception and judgment as major factor for the success of a business, but does not specifically refer to the NPD cycle time.

This thesis examines the effect of cognates on codeswitching in planned speech production in trilinguals, which has previously been unexplored. Previous studies on cognates and codeswitching have primarily focused on cognate facilitation effects in spontaneous speech in bilinguals. While experimental studies have gradually acknowledged the importance of investigating codeswitching in a sentence co
