OBJECTIVE: To test whether a previously hypertension-linked 23 cM region on chromosome 2 is linked to the metabolic syndrome (MetS) or its individual components, and whether a common I/D polymorphism of the adrenergic receptor 2b (ADRA2B) gene, mapping in that region, is associated with the same traits. METHODS: We conducted fine mapping of the hypertension-linked region on chromosome 2 spanning b
A critical review of Jarl Nordbladh (ed), "Arkeologiska liv. Om att leva arkeologiskt" (Archaeological lives: on living as an archaeologist, Göteborg 1995). The book deals with the lives of six Swedish and Danish archaeologists.
The purpose of this work is to investigate the interaction between transport processes and chemical reactions, with special emphasis on modeling mass transport by the Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) at microscale of the anode of a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). In order to improve the performance of an SOFC, it is important to determine the microstructural effect embedded within the physical and che
The article presents the sociology of philosophy as an empirical undertaking that relies on certain types of empirical material and modes of utilizing data. It also discusses the sociology of philosophy as a theoretical undertaking that thematizes the relation between social being and philosophical thought on the one hand, and the relation between social being and validity on the other hand.
Abstract in German Zugefuehrte Luftporen veraendern die mechanischen Eigenschaften von Beton. Sie sind erforderlich, um den Frost-Tausalzwiderstand sicherzustellen. Der Beitrag zeigt, dass Hochleistungsbeton auch ohne Luftporenbildner eine hohe Frost-Tausalzbestaendigkeit aufweisen kann, wenn die vorgestellten Massnahmen umgesetzt werden.Freeze-thaw resistance of high performance concrete. Entrained air-pores reduce all mechanical properties of concrete. On the other hand, air-filled pores are required in order to secure freeze-thaw resistance. The article shows that high performance concrete has potential of freeze-thaw resistance also without air-entrainment, or with very low air-entrainment. Corresponding measures are presented
The objectives of this study were to examine potential clinical and neuropsychological changes over time in non-demented patients with subjective memory complaints (
Objectives - To detect post-operative sequelae of sural nerve biopsy. Materials and methods-- A questionnaire mailed to type 1 diabetic patients (n = 24; male/female 23/1; reply n = 23) 2 years after biopsy. Results - Type 1 diabetic patients (age 56 [11]; median [interquartile range]) had a long duration of diabetes (DM; 20 [19] years) and all had neuropathy. Three out of 24 patients developed in
BACKGROUND: Matrilysin (MMP-7) elevation after radiotherapy is shown in humans. Matrilysin regulates certain cytokines and the production of bactericidal proteins when the mucosa is exposed to bacterial antigens. We investigate the effect of irradiation on matrilysin and microflora in murine bowel, after modulation with antibiotics. METHODS: Animals were divided into two different groups a radiati
