Popular Abstract in Swedish Vi vill bevara naturbetesmarker och deras skönhet, vilken bland annat utgörs av de olika växtarter som förekommer där. Men idag finns det tyvärr inte många betesmarker kvar. Naturbetesmarkerna har under de senaste två sekelerna försvunnit på grund av ökad eller minskad markanvändning, där betesmarker blivit omvandlade till antingen åkermark eller skog. Bristen på betesmLarge areas of grazed, species rich semi-natural grassland were lost in Europe during the last two centuries and as a consequence led to decreases in grassland specialist species. Therefore, today the “restoration” of grassland on previously arable fields is recommended for the protection of grassland specialists. Even “substitute habitats” for lost grasslands are discussed as temporary alternativ

En preliminär rapportering från ett pågående projekt om den svenska turistbroschyrgenrens utveckling. I uppsatsen redovisas rön med avseende på förpackningsform, textupplägg och syntax.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Man har länge känt till att högt blodtryck {hypertoni}, bukfetma och sockersjuka {ålders diabetes} existerar samtidigt hos en och samma individ. Under de senaste decennierna har forskare försökt att hitta en gemensam mekanism till dessa tillstånd. Framför allt de senaste åren har man riktat uppmärksamheten mot det fett- och sockerreglerande hormonet insulin som tycks vaHypertensive individuals, even non-obese, have been shown to be resistant to the insulin-mediated glucose uptake in peripheral tissues {mainly skeletal muscle}. The aim of this study was to investigate hypothetical pathophysiological mechanisms for the development of hypertension with regard to insulin sensitivity in normotensive men with a family history of hypertension (RELs) as compared to men

Drawing on debates in Sweden about Internet freedom, particularly those connected to copyright and file sharing, and on the European legislative trend of amending copyright, this chapter analyses metaphors and conceptions in terms of a societal paradigmatic shift and the collision of mentalities. Kuhnian paradigms are wedded with the mentalities of the French Annales School of historic research. T

Designed to meet the diverse needs of therapists, this book presents a new approach to rehabilitation that integrates ergonomics concepts to address the wide range of problems commonly encountered by professionals. The first section addresses general concepts such as anthropometry and tissue mechanics. The next section explores whole body biomechanics, demonstrating the ergonomic effects of physio

Artikeln undersöker människors förhållningssätt till uppslagsverk och encyklopedier i ett livshistoriskt perspektiv under en period när encyklopedier har genomgått dramatiska förändringar. En frågelista som skickats till fasta så kallade meddelare knutna till Folklivsarkivet i Lund har använts som metod. Svaren har analyserats med hjälp av posthumanistisk teori. Analysen visar de sätt som tryckta Encyclopaedias are artefacts that both define and are defined by the culture in which they are produced and used. Encyclopaedias mirror the time of their creation, at the same time as understanding and use of encyclopaedias is tied to both time and space. From the 19th century until the present day encyclopaedias have changed from exclusive and costly Collections of books kept mainly in libraries

To evaluate the influence of hard exudates on macular function in patients with diabetic retinopathy. METHODS: Thirty seven eyes from 27 diabetic patients, aged 57 +/- 14 years, diabetes duration 12.5 +/- 9 years, not previously treated with photocoagulation, underwent fundus photography, multifocal electroretinography (mfERG) and optical coherence tomography (OCT). Hard exudates were graded from

Fuel economy and emissions are the two central parameters in heavy duty engines. High exhaust gas recirculation rates combined with turbocharging has been identified as a promising way to increase the maximum load and efficiency of heavy duty spark ignition engines. With stoichiometric conditions, a three way catalyst can be used, which keeps the regulated emissions at very low levels. The Lambda

Todorov´s distinction between theoretical genres and historical genres are logically analyzed, the first being classes, the second cultural, social facts. The theoretical genres cannot, according to Todorov, be falsified or verified. This is on account of the rule saying that the language of object and the metalanguage must not be mixed. But this mixing is always present in ordinary language, in l

By tradition the humanities have been anthropocentrically focused on the lives of human beings in arts and literature. The limited analysis of what other species do in literature – and of the different relations between humans and animals that are represented – has sustained the notion of a hierachical divide between humans and other species, thereby reducing the ethical potential of literature to

The DEK oncogene is highly expressed in cells from most human tissues and overexpressed in a large and growing number of cancers. It also fuses with the NUP214 gene to form the DEK-NUP214 fusion gene in a subset of acute myeloid leukemia. Originally characterized as a member of this translocation, DEK has since been implicated in epigenetic and transcriptional regulation but its role in these proc

Rättsläget när det gäller att få en godkänd arbetsskada efter utmattningssyndrom är synnerligen oklart, och det är snarare regel än undantag att dessa ärenden avslås. Vi beskriver hur ett sådant ärende bedömts av Försäkringskassan och Länsrätten. Ärendet gick inte vidare till Kammarrätten, eftersom försäkringskassan godtog Länsrättens dom. Därmed är inte domen vägledande rent juridiskt, men utslag

The early Church was a narrative fellowship which narrativized the Jesus tradition and per-formed it from memory. It did so by using specific narrative and mnemonic forms of commu-nication. The chreia combines features of narrativity, oral performance, and memory and con-stituted a basic element of the narrative mosaic of the Church. The author of the Gospel of Mark indicates a broader pattern of

Purpose: To establish whether intraocular pressure (IOP) fluctuations contribute to the risk of developing glaucoma in patients with high-risk ocular hypertension. Methods: Ninety patients included in the Malmo Ocular Hypertension Study were examined every 3 months with office-hours diurnal tension curves and computerised perimetry. Patients were followed up prospectively for 10 years or until gla

En redogörelse för hur Kvinnovetenskaplig tidskrift bytte namn till Tidskrift för genusvetenskap när Cristine Sarrimo och Monika Edgren var redaktörer för tidskriften. I artikeln återges hur redaktionen resonerade kring namnbytet utifrån det genusvetenskapliga fältets förändring från ett tidigare fokus på kvinnor till ett breddat genusbegrepp.
