Pain is common in the elderly population and its prevalence varies according to the studied disease, clinical setting, sex and age. This study examines pain in an aging population from a gender perspective.

Type II collagen is synthesized in the tympanic membrane during healing of a perforation. The time course and appearance of Type II collagen regrowth in the newly healed tympanic membrane is the subject of the present study.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling ger en introduktion till laser-plasma acceleratorer, vilket även utgör ämnet för de vetenskapliga artiklar som ingår i avhandlingen. Det är en ny typ av acceleratorer som utnyttjar mycket kraftfulla lasrar för att accelerera elektroner och protoner. Partikelacceleratorer används för att ge partiklar hög rörelseenergi, vilket kan utnyttjas för många olikThis thesis presents experimental results related to laser plasma accelerators. These rely on very different principles from conventional particle accelerators. They are able to accelerate particles over a very short distance and produce synchrotron x-rays at the same time, potentially providing a compact particle accelerator and x-ray source for many future applications. The laser pulses used in

Short noncoding RNAs known as microRNAs (miRNAs) control protein expression through the degradation of RNA or the inhibition of protein translation. The miRNAs influence a wide range of biologic processes and are often deregulated in cancer. This family of small RNAs constitutes potentially valuable markers for the diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic choices in prostate cancer (PCa) patients, as

Aim: To evaluate haemostatic effects and clinical outcome of oestrogen treatment of constitutionally tall stature in girls. Methods: We conducted a single-centre cohort study, 63 girls referred over a period of 15 years were investigated. The girls were given oestrogen treatment for constitutional tall stature at a median initial dose of 300 ug ethinyl estradiol/day and were consecutively examined

The proportion of elderly in the society increases and fall frequency increases with advancing age. Many falls result in fractures and also soft tissue injuries, longstanding pain, functional impairment, reduced quality of life, increased mortality, and excess in healthcare costs. Due to the magnitude of these negative effects, a variety of single- and multicomponent fall-preventive intervention p

Understanding the interaction between electromagnetic waves and matter is vital in applications ranging from classical optics to antenna theory. This paper derives physical limitations on the scattering of electromagnetic vector spherical waves. The assumptions made are that the heterogeneous scatterer is passive, and has constitutive relations which are on convolution form in the time domain and

The relationship between tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and drug survival had not been studied in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and there were no laboratory tests to predict the long-term efficacy of biological drugs for JIA. We studied if serum levels of TNF-α, free or bound to etanercept, could predict long-term efficacy of etanercept in children with JIA.
