Popular Abstract in Swedish Bestämning av koncentrationen av kadmium, kvicksilver och bly i människokroppen. Värdet av röntgenfluorescensmätningar in vivo.Two XRF methods have been used for in vivo studies of mercury, cadmium and lead. Persons with a history of long-term occupational mercury exposure had elevated mercury concentrations in their kidneys (up to 65 µg/g). The minimum detectable concentration varied between 12 and 45 µg/g. Battery plant workers had elevated cadmium concentrations in their kidneys (up to 350 µg/g) and liver (up to 80 µg/

Popular Abstract in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Plastikkirurgi och rekonstruktiv kirurgi syftar till att återskapa form och funktion i kroppens yttre vävnader, efter större defekter orsakade av t.ex. trafikolyckor, brännskador eller tumöroperationer. Sedan länge har man använt förflyttning av hud (hudtransplantat) och rotation eller förflyttning av större vävnadsområden med bibehålMicrovascular surgery enables free tissue flaps to cover tissue defects, e.g. after trauma and malignancies. Although major improvements in techniques have been made, problems with poor tissue circulation and thrombus formation still exist. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the effects of hemodilution on tissue blood flow and thrombus formation in an animal model. In isovolemic hemodilutio

Within a course in academic writing, first-term students of English currently construct individualized study-plans detailing both what they should do during the term and when they should do it. Students calculate the average workload for all their courses, and include in their study-plans all the hours they should spend both in and outside the classroom on each course, totalling in 40-hour working

Popular Abstract in Swedish I alla flercelliga organismer behövs utbyte av information mellan cellerna, som bygger upp kroppen. För detta ändamål är cellerna försedda med små antenner, som kan ta emot signaler och kallas därför receptorer. Receptorer kan vara uppbyggda på olika sätt. De flesta receptorer slingrar sig sju gånger genom membranet och har ett gemensamt sätt att fortleda signaler till Seven-transmembrane, G-protein coupled receptors play a central role in physiology since they facilitate cell communication in multicellular organisms by recognition of a broad range of ligands. They also represent important drug targets. Unfortunately, for many of these receptors the endogenous ligands, and, hence, their physiological functions, remain to be identified. These receptors are usuall

Many attempts have been made to catch the essence of Joseph Conrad’s work by examining the contents of his ideas. This thesis argues instead that the important factor is the preferred spatial structures of his world-views and the interplay between them. Above all, Conrad’s work can be seen as a battle-ground between closing and opening structures. The former have a claustrophobic effect on the con

We propose a method for statically analyzing components that can be part of Android applications and which have not been very well analyzed so far, namely native libraries. As of now, third-party native code can be seen as a black box that can be fed input parameters from the Dalvik bytecode context, and output parameters can be returned back to the bytecode context. However, the native code can s

This book explores the dynamic relations between corporate governance, employee voice, and the organization of work in the automotive supply industry. From research in three countries—Germany, Sweden, and the United States—it explores and compares historical patterns in changing governance regimes, voice, and work at plant level . It also explores the prospects for high-road, sustainable jobs in t

We showed that, under conditions of experimental chronic hepatitis, excessive increases in the levels of a Ca-binding protein, S-100b, and a neuronal cell adhesion molecule, NCAM, occur in all parts of the brain of Wistar rats. This is accompanied by suppression of locomotor and orientational/research activity of the animals and increase in their stress sensitivity. Treatment by a ketoglutarate an

Combining photoelectron spectroscopy and density-functional theory calculations, we have studied the atomic geometry of Yb/Si(100)(2 X 6) reconstruction and the mechanisms responsible for its stabilization as well as the influence of this reconstruction on Si 2p core-level photoemission. The analysis of measured and calculated surface core-level shifts supports the recently proposed model of the Y

Review of David Lowe & Tony Joel. Remembering the Cold War: Global Contest and National Stories. 2014.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to assess how technology-based university research drives innovation in Europe and China. Design/methodology/approach – This paper draws on extensive theoretical research and literature reviews, and presents a framework based on theories on networking, knowledge creation and innovation. It then introduces three European cases to illustrate practical appli

Objective: The objective was to investigate the association between experience of violation during the past 3 months and self-rated health, taking trust (social capital), economic stress, and country of birth and parents' country of birth into account. Design/setting/participants/measurements: The 2008 public health survey in Skåne is a cross-sectional study with 55% response rate. A random sample
