Det finns nu vissa bevis för att multidisciplinära insatser har effekt vid långvariga muskuloskeletala besvär. I denna studie förbättrades också patienternas livskvalitet mer i rehabiliteringsgruppen jämfört med en kontrollgrupp från primärvården. Hög motivation hos patienten ger bättre resultat.

In this paper a novel filtered back-projection algorithm for inversion of a discretized Radon transform is presented. It makes use of invariance properties possessed by both the Radon transform and its dual. By switching to log-polar coordinates, both operators can be expressed in a displacement invariant manner. Explicit expressions for the corresponding transfer functions are calculated. Further

We here present the clinical phenotype in 6 patients from a family with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa found to carry a point mutation in the rhodopsin gene (arginine-135-tryptophan). The mutation is the second found by mutation screening of DNA from 20 Swedish families with dominant retinitis pigmentosa. With full-field electroretinography we could document a severe form of retinitis pig

OBJECTIVES: To replicate the relation between the CSF HVA:5-HIAA ratio and psychopathic traits previously reported in a pilot group of 22 perpetrators of violent crimes. METHODS: CSF monoamine metabolite concentrations in another 28 violent and sexual offenders, aged 45 or below, referred to pretrial forensic psychiatric investigation, were compared to features of psychopathy according to the Psyc

The purpose of the book is to be a comparative study of how the aristocracy in Western Europe organised space and landscape, especially inside and adjacent to their residences. This comparison will involve examples from Britain, France, Germany and Scandinavia and is concentrated to the period c. 800-1500. The overall aim is to search after a common aristocratic spatial ideology and to explain its

Objective: To determine the importance of IgM antibodies against phosphorylcholine ( aPC), a novel protective factor for cardiovascular disease ( CVD), in a population with a non-western life style as compared with a Swedish control group. Methods and results: Risk factors for cardiovascular disease were determined in a group of 108 individuals aged 40-86 years from New Guinea and 108 age-and sex-

In the above paper, Nembhard and Osothsilp (2001) empirically compared several forgetting models against empirical data on production breaks. Among the models compared was the learn–forget curve model (LFCM) developed by Jaber and Bonney(1996). In previous research, several studies have shown that the LFCM is advantageous to some of the models being investigated, however, Nembhard and Osothsilp (2

It has been known for nearly 30 years that the theoretical and experimental values for the energy of the 2s3s S-1 level in singly ionized boron, B it, differ strongly. Since there is much better agreement for other B II levels, it has been concluded that the experimental value for 2s3s S-1 must be revised. Despite a number of recordings over the years of sliding-spark, hollow cathode and beam-foil

The development of cartilage pathology in osteoarthritis involves excessive damage to the collagen fibrillar network, which appears to be mediated primarily by the chondrocyte-generated cytokines interleukin-1 and tumour necrosis factor alpha and the collagenases matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) and MMP-13. The damage to matrix caused by these and other MMPs can result in the production of suffi

Malaria parasites are a major cause of human mortality in tropical countries and a potential threat for wildlife, as witnessed by the malaria-induced extinction of naive Hawaiian avifauna. Identifying resistance mechanisms is therefore crucial both for human health and wildlife conservation. Patterns of malaria resistance are known to be highly polygenic in both humans and mice, with marked contri
