This book chapter discusses and evaluates four different efforts to extend human life: Normalize ageing, Optimize ageing, Retard ageing and postpone death, and Eliminate or overcome ageing and death.

However, the direct

The Scandinavian death rituals are expressions of agency (war, negotiations, hunting, and personal attraction), and the outcome of the investigation of depositional practices archaeo- logically. Thus, the death rituals cannot be interpreted as self- explanatory afterlife constructions. The wealth depended on political mobilization and a narration of a sense of belonging. As such, the death rituals

This chapter is focused on the study of electroremediation of heavy metals from a real soil. Specifically, the case of the study was a soil from Almaden mining district, with a very high mercury concentration. The risk assessment of heavy metals depends on the mobility and bioavailability and not only on the total concentration. Therefore, this study evaluates the distribution of mercury into diff

The thermal effects related to wearing a bicycle helmet are complex and different studies have investigated single parts of this topic. A literature review was produced and published (Bogerd et al., 2015) summarizing the different findings to give a complete overview on this topic as well as to suggest new perspectives. Headgear increases head insulation and therefore is mainly problematic under w

Bildning som betydelsefull del i lärandet är inte alltid priorierat i utbildingssammanhang. Informellt och icke-formellt lärande erkänns sällan som något som bidrar till kunskap och färdigheter, inte ens av individerna själva. Öppna sociala nätverk skapar stora möjligheter för en ny syn på bildning och tillvaratagande av den enskildes engagemang, motivation, intresse och valmöjligheter. Förändrade

Popular Abstract in Swedish Magsårsbakterien H. pylori binder till och förändrar magens slemhinna Bakterierna är i majoritet i kroppen! Människans 10 biljoner celler lever i harmoni med 100 biljoner bakterier som har koloniserat någon av kroppens ekologiska nischer utan att göra skada. Av alla bakterier kroppen möter utgör bara en bråkdel något hot, och trots att kroppen möter sjukdomsalstrande bHelicobacter pylori may cause gastritis, gastric/duodenal ulcer and gastric cancer. During infection, most H. pylori are found in the gastric mucus layer, but some are attached to, or have penetrated, epithelial cells. The aim of this study is to characterize the binding of H. pylori to gastric mucins and to investigate host changes that occur after inoculation. Results: H. pylori binds to mucins
