Background. Although muscle wasting may lead to decreased ammonia detoxification in cirrhosis, the potential role of lean mass depletion in hepatic encephalopathy (HE) has not been explored. Anemia, hormonal abnormalities, and psychological distress may contribute to cognitive dysfunction, but data on their potential relation to HE are limited. Methods. Data on 108 cirrhotic liver transplant candi

Both genetic and lifestyle factors contribute to the risk of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Additionally, epigenetic modifications may also play a key role in the pathogenesis of NASH. We therefore investigated liver DNA methylation, as a marker for epigenetic alterations, in individuals with simple steatosis and NASH, and further tested if these alterations were associated with clinical ph

Den första januari 2012 sänkte den då sittande alliansregeringen momssatsen för restaurang- och cateringtjänster från 25 % till 12 %. Det övergripande målet med den lägre momssatsen är att stimulera efterfrågan på okvalificerad arbetskraft genom att skapa förutsättningar för lägre priser och därmed ökad efterfrågan på restaurangföretagens tjänster.Under tiden efter genomförandet av den sänkta moms

Conservation programmes for endangered, long-lived and migratory species often have to target multiple life stages. The bottlenecks associated with the survival of juvenile anguillid eels migrating into inland waters, the survival and growth of the freshwater life stage, as well as the recruitment and survival of silver eels, migrating back to the ocean to spawn, must be resolved. In this study, w

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling handlar om arbetarförfattaren Ivar Lo-Johanssons modernitet, sådan den kommer till uttryck i de sk. statarromanerna: Godnatt, jord (1933), Bara en mor (1939) och Traktorn (1943). Först undersöks hur modernisering och modernitet skildras i romanerna och därefter hur författaren förhåller sig till den litterära riktning som kommit att symbolisera den esteThis dissertation examines the modernity of the Swedish proletarian author Ivar Lo-Johansson (1901-1990), as manifested in the so-called 'statare' novels: Godnatt, jord (Breaking Free, 1933), Bara en mor (Only a Mother, 1939), and Traktorn (1943). The dissertation examines, on the one hand, modernisation and modernity as the topoi of these novels, and on the other, how the author relates to the li

The aim of this master’s thesis is to shed light on the phenomenon of story time in public libraries. Story time is in the present study defined as a scheduled event where a librarian or a library assistent tells one or more stories to a group of children, often with the help of audiovisual aids and/or elements of drama. The main focus is the pedagogy of story time from the perspective of the stor

Gängkriminaliteten i Sverige är idag ett omdiskuterat ämne. Trots detta finns det en sida av myntet som förbises och lämnas i det dolda, nämligen de våldsbejakande kvinnorna. Historiskt sett har kvinnor som kommer i kontakt med rättsväsendet setts som offer till mäns våld, och så även i dagens samhälle. Det talas om ”den rosa lagboken” och att kvinnor särbehandlas av rättsväsendets aktörer i strid

En konkurs kan frammana mindre lämpliga ageranden hos både borgenär och gäldenär. En gäldenär kan för egen, eller närståendes, vinning tänkas söka undandra tillgångar från bolaget innan dess konkurs. En borgenär å sin sida kan i oron för att lida stora förluster vidta betalningspåtryckningar mot gäldenären. Detta leder till att denne borgenär gynnas i förhållande till resterande borgenärer. Att moA bankruptcy may evoke less appropriate acts from both the debtor and the creditors. A debtor may try to favour himself, or a relative, by transferring assets out of the company before the company’s bankruptcy. A creditor on the other hand may, due to his concern to suffer great financial losses, put pressure on the debtor about payment of his debts, which puts the creditor in a better position th

Outstanding economic growth in China has its price to pay. By prioritizing economic growth as number-one issue, complementing cheap energy consumption has undeniably been side-by-side. Although the energy base on fossil-fuel energy consumption, together with inefficient technology has pushed forward China to lifting millions of the population out of poverty, it has also mounted emissions in China,

Group A Streptococcus (GAS) is a significant human pathogen that has developed multipleimmune evasion mechanisms to counter the host immune response. One of these mechanisms involvesthe production of the M protein, which, amongst other things, acts as an anti-phagocytic factor and canbind host proteins. Another is the ability of M protein to bind a human protein called fibronectin (Fn). Thisprotei

Aseptic loosening of a joint prosthesis is associated with remodelling of bone tissue in the vicinity of the prosthesis. In the present study, we investigated the effects of synovial fluid ( SF) from patients with a loose prosthetic component and periprosthetic osteolysis on osteoclast and osteoblast activities in vitro and made comparisons with the effects of SF from patients with osteoarthritis
