Objective: The proteoglycan decorin stabilizes collagen whereas biglycan and hyaluronan disrupt well-organized collagen. The aim was to compare hyaluronan and proteoglycans in human fetal membranes obtained before and after spontaneous labour at term. Study design: Prelabour samples of fetal membranes (N = 9) were obtained from elective caesarean sections and regionally sampled from over the cervi
Five acute leukaemia or highly malignant lymphoma patients at a hospital in southern Sweden were interviewed about their daily living problems, their coping strategies and their opinions about the nursing care they received during the active phase of their treatment. In addition the EORTC QLQ-C30, the Global Life Quality and the Sense of Coherence scales were administered. The data were analysed f
Popular Abstract in English “We are not free in this area.” This is what the iNduna, a traditional leader at KwaDapha, shared with me when we first met in August 2011. KwaDapha is a small rural community at Bhanga Nek, Kosi Bay, in northern KwaZulu-Natal/Maputaland – one of the most scenic areas on the South African coastline. Kosi Bay falls within the Coastal Forest Reserve section of the iSimaIn the past several decades under a growing influence of ecological modernisation, various assumed ‘win-win’ approaches to protected area conservation and poverty alleviation have been introduced all over the world, especially in resource-rich developing countries. Yet protected area conservation is an inherently political process, and the goals are often not achieved. There are concerns about com
As a result of the globalisation of the world economy, many enterprises that previously confined their business activities to national markets are now focusing on broader international markets, thus forming the basis for the establishment of global enterprises. In addition to the extension of markets, these global companies also seek cost reductions through scale economics in logistics, marketing,
Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling rapporterar om karakterisering och tillmpningar av extrem ultraviolett (XUV) strålning som genererats av övertonsgenerering samt i en frielektronlaser. Övertonsgenerering är en process som uppstår när en kraftfull kortvarig laserpuls fokuseras i ett gasmedium. De laserpulser som används är bara några femtosekunder (10−15s) långa och har en våglängd i This thesis reports experimental studies performed with two advanced coherent XUV sources with ultrashort pulse duration, high-order harmonic generation and seeded-free electron laser. High-order harmonic generation (HHG) is the generation of overtones of a fundamental laser pulse in a medium, e.g. noble gases. The emitted radiation has a high degree of transverse coherence, and pulse lengths in t
Electric breakdown in semihomogeneous geometries has been studied in n-hexane and transformer oil using a laser triggering method for fields far below the spontaneous breakdown field. The method uses a laser-produced plasma to initiate the breakdown. Strong self focusing in the liquids was limited by increasing the numerical aperture of the laser beam to > 0.20 prior to focusing. Electrical breakd
Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur gick det till när det svenska riket expanderade norrut och införlivade Hälsingland? Denna bok är uppställd som en generalhypotes över denna långt utdragna process, som tar sin utgångspunkt i den samhälleliga kollaps som är skönjbar under 500-talet. De inhemska maktstrukturer som gradvis byggdes upp efteråt kom under medeltidens inledande århundraden att få känna på

Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a secure encryption key generation process to be used by two users in the presence of an eavesdropper. The no-cloning theorem allows the sender "Alice" to securely send qubits with single photons to the receiver "Bob". However, due to real-life imperfections, it is not always possible to have a single-photon source with its properties matching Since the dawn of the first civilizations, the security of information has proven vital to the success of any given community. History records the first attempts at using cryptography techniques in a 1900 BC to 600 BC time frame. In ancient times, the working mechanism of this technique involved the use of letters in the alphabet. To secure the information, these techniques shifted the letters’ nu

På senare tid har en särskild typ av företag, vars affärsverksamhet går ut på att hyra bostadslägenheter för att vidareupplåta dem till företag som behöver personalbostäder, vuxit fram på hyresmarknaden i Sverige. Detta fenomen är vanligast i storstadsregionerna, företagen brukar kallas för mellanhandsföretag och bostäderna som hyrs ut för företagsbostäder. En av reglerna som aktualiseras vid dennIn recent years, a new category of business has emerged within the Swedish rental housing market, operating by leasing residential flats and subsequently subletting them to companies in need of staff accommodation. This phenomenon is most prevalent in metropolitan areas. Such businesses are usually referred to as intermediary companies, and the flats as corporate apartments. One of the legal provi
Stellar lithium abundances can help answer multiple unanswered questions within modern astrophysics. Lithium is fragile in comparison to other elements found in stellar atmospheres. Consequently, its abundance within the stellar atmosphere is depleted by different processes. Studying these lithium abundances gives insight into the evolution of the stars and the processes within their interiors. Th

The Swedish retail landscape is currently undergoing a transformative change with increased digitalization and a rapidly growing e-commerce sector, which creates both opportunities and challenges. The development towards omnichannel commerce creates a more complex customer journey and results in complex environmental challenges. E-commerce deliveries to consumers, in particular, pose a complex soc
Spark ablation is an established method for generating aerosol nanoparticles. By changing the electrodes, synthesis of monometallic, multimetallic and semiconducting nanoparticles has been demonstrated. Apart from using electrodes of specific composition, compositional tuning of bimetallic nanoparticles during synthesis has recently been demonstrated (Kohut, et al., 2021). In many applications, it
The Bluethroat subspecies Cyanecula svecica svecia occurs throughout the northern Palearctic. European C. s. svecia has been shown to follow a route west of the Himalaya to winter quarters in southern Asia. Out of 30 Bluethroats tagged with geolocators in eastern Siberia, we obtained one track suggesting that it migrated east of the Himalaya to a wintering area located in Myanmar. The different ro
PURPOSE: Oxaliplatin is increasingly becoming the chemotherapeutic drug of choice for the treatment of peritoneal malignancies using cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC). Oxaliplatin is unstable in chloride-containing media, resulting in the use of 5% dextrose as the carrier solution in these procedures. Exposure of the peritoneum to 5% dextrose during pe
A floating-point analog-to-digital converter (FP-ADC) with a linear architecture has been implemented using an amplifier network in front of a pipeline ADC. The amplifier network has outputs with binary weighted gains, each sampled separately. The signal with the proper gain is then converted in the ADC. This structure allows instant floating point exponent determination. The mismatches in the amp
