The mast cell mediator histamine is involve in T2D pathogenicity Diabetes mellitus is a common metabolic disorder which is characterized by high glucose levels in blood and urine. Diabetes is one of the most expanding diseases in the world today. There are 2 major types of diabetes; type 2 diabetes (T2D) contributes with up to 90% of all diabetes subtypes. Patients with T2D compose up to 150 mill
The aim of this thesis was by a comparative study investigate the small Roman bust found in Västra Vång to increase the understanding of the context is which it was created. The comparative study was leaning on two hypotheses; that the bust was depicted with a so-called melon coiffure and that the bust was a depiction of a barbarian. Two catalogues was created on the basis of these hypotheses to b
This paper investigates the feasibility of OCA for ASEAN after the implementation of ASEAN Economic Community Blueprint in 2008. Dynamic Conditional Correlation (DCC) model with and without a structural break are used to identify whether the policy implemented facilitates the region to move closer to a single currency area. Industrial production index growth rate and change in short-term interest
The purpose of this thesis is to analyse how the Swedish newspapers' use of party-preference polls has changed over time. I study 246 articles published by Göteborgs-Posten, Dagens Nyheter, Aftonbladet and Expressen, and compare the time-period 1994-1996 with 2010-2012. Amongst other things, I look at the news-papers' reporting of basic statistical information in their polls, as well as th
Objective: To study prescription patterns of biological treatment in rheumatoid arthritis ( RA) patients in southern Sweden, a region with no formal or economic restrictions for the use of biological treatment in rheumatological diseases. Specifically, we studied conformity with the national Swedish guidelines for biologics in RA. Methods: Rheumatologists in southern Sweden contribute to a volunta
Background: Observational studies implicate higher dietary energy density (DED) as a potential risk factor for weight gain and obesity. It has been hypothesized that DED may also be associated with risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D), but limited evidence exists. Therefore, we investigated the association between DED and risk of T2D in a large prospective study with heterogeneity of dietary intake. Meth
Progression through the plant life cycle involves change in many essential features, most notably in the capacity to reproduce. The transition from a juvenile vegetative and non-reproductive to an adult reproductive phase is gradual and can take many years; in the conifer Norway spruce, Picea abies, typically 2025 years. We present a detailed analysis of the activities of three regulatory genes wi
When evaluating drug substances, the traditional clinical study setting does not allow scope for observing real-life behaviour since all alternative actions are determined beforehand. However, a study based on prospective or retrospective databases containing real-life data can examine how patients and physicians behave in a real-world setting and can investigate the relationship between the intro
The Royal flagship Gribshunden carried the Danish King Hans on its way to the city of Kalmar in Sweden when the ship sank in the summer of 1495. The ship caught fire while anchored north of the Stora Ek o Island and sank to the seafloor, where it lies to this day. The wreck was rediscovered in the 1970s and is remarkably well preserved.Since 2001, scientific investigations have been performed on t
Objective To compare the effectiveness and safety of the oxytocin antagonist atosiban with conventional beta-adrenergic agonist (beta-agonist) therapy in the treatment of preterm labour. Design Three multinational, multicentre, double-blind, randomised, controlled trials. Setting Hospitals in Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Israel, Sweden, and the UK. Population Women diagnosed
A phylogenetic hypothesis based on nuclear ITS sequence data is presented for the family Physciaceae, based on various representatives of foliose and fruticose groups and a number of species selected from the crustose genera Rinodina and Buellia s.l. The analysis supports the monophyly of the Physcia- and the Buellia-groups. This is in agreement with existing morphological evidence, particularly a
Immature progenitor cells (generated by in vitro propagation) may provide a useful alternative to primary cells (from dissected embryonic tissue) for transplantation if their migratory and proliferative and differentiation properties can be controlled and directed in vivo. In this study E15 murine EGF-responsive progenitor cells were transplanted to the striatum of adult rats. Simultaneously, thes

OBJECTIVE: To assess intraindividual variation of follicle stimulating hormone, luteinising hormone, estradiol, progesterone, inhibin A, and inhibin B in three successive ovulatory cycles correlated with transvaginal ultrasound monitored morphological changes in the ovary.METHODS: Serial transvaginal color and pulsed Doppler ultrasound and serum hormone analysis were performed during midfollicular
The design and features of frequency-selective wallpaper created for attachment onto regular walls in order to filter out signals operating at 5 GHz while at the same time allowing the desired radio communication services to propagate through such walls are presented. An analysis of the characteristics of the radio channel evaluated in a typical indoor environment, when considering either regular
Within the international human right law scholarship and philosophy of human rights, there is no clear picture how human rights, old and new, emerge from the ground, from the small idea that a new human right is needed. There is no theory why and how human rights emerge, as well as there is no methodology how the idea could come through the process of development, then emerge as a human right in t
When hearing the word ‘terrorism’ something will come to mind, whether it is images from 9/11, 7/7 or any other attack, pictures from terrorist camps in Syria, or something else related to terrorism. But what is terrorism, and can the word be defined sufficiently enough to be used by courts of law? This thesis examines the Swedish courts’ interpretation and application of the legal definition of t
Colombia committed to reduce 20% of its emissions by 2030 in the framework of Paris Agreement. The study provides a systemic approach that considers the two main drivers of the emissions in the country to know how realistic is the mentioned intended National Determined Contribution (iNDC). It analyzes deforestation and road transport with a methodology that combines analyses of their current situa
The migration politics in Sweden have changed drastically within the past years as it has introduced stricter asylum policies and higher securitisation of borders. As a result, an increased number of people are forced to live as undocumented migrants, meaning without a legal permit to stay in the country. This thesis aims to contribute to the analysis of this development by investigating the role
Background: Adaption of Industry 4.0 is the new trend in developing countries mainly to obtain more efficiency and profitability. But to implement industry 4.0, developing countries are facing many challenges that need to be researched. Moreover, due to COVID- 19 pandemic and restrictions all around the world, have huge effects on the implementation of industry 4.0. Many companies are forced to im
