In an earlier study, infection of human pancreatic islets with epidemic strains of echovirus (E4, E16, E30), with proven but differently ability to induce islet autoimmunity, resulted either in a severe damage (i.e. E16 and E30) or proceeded without visible changes in infected islets (i.e. E4). In this study, the ability of these strains to replicate in beta cells and the consequence of such an in

This paper explores the bearing had by Aymara notions of spirit loss on contemporary indigenous discourses of colonialism and decolonization and discusses the dynamics of cross-fertilization between “traditional” curing practices and cosmology on the one hand and indigenous ethnopolitical activism and discourse on the other.

BACKGROUND: This study evaluated the incidence, complications, and outcome of local intra-arterial thrombolytic therapy for acute superior mesenteric artery (SMA) occlusion in Sweden. METHODS: Patients undergoing local intra-arterial thrombolytic therapy for acute SMA occlusion were identified in the Swedish Vascular Registry (SWEDVASC) between 1987 and 2009. Patient data were retrieved in a struc

Inflammation and ischemia have a synergistic damaging effect in the immature brain. The role of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptors 1 and 2 in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced sensitization and tolerance to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) was evaluated in neonatal murine hippocampal organotypic slices. Hippocampal slices from balb/c, C57BL/6 TNFR1(-/-), TNFR2(-/-), and wild-type (WT) mice obtai

This thesis explores Martin Luther´s theology of prayer. His catechetical writings (written between 1516-1535) and the three longer series of lectures on the Psalms (written 1513-1515, 1519-1521 and 1532-1535) are studied. The thesis explains how Luther´s experiences through prayer and theology work as a coherent whole, where formulations from different areas (for instance anthropology and ecclesi

The paper proposes that intersubjectivity develops in children along a progression of five (more or less) distinct stages of semiotic development. The theoretical model within which this is couched is the Mimesis Hierarchy (MH) model (Zlatev & Andrén 2009). As in previous treatments, the MH-model focuses on bodily mimesis, its “precursors” (empathetic perception) and “post-developments” (conve

The aim of this paper is to enhance understanding of how the resilience of water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) systems to hazards can be improved. In turn, this aims to inform different strategies for public and private partnerships (PPPs). In a new approach, to acknowledge the multi levelled nature of resilience; risk at the relevant levels are taken into account, (regional/river basin, urban ar

Mobile business intelligence (m-BI) denotes the delivery of business information on mobile devices, such as tablets and smartphones. m-BI promises to support the mobile workforce in making decisions just in time. Yet, a lack of knowledge exists on how m-BI use can actually lead to improved decisionmaking performance at the individual level. This void of understanding has implications for both prac

Context: The changes that are taking place with respect to environmental sensitivity are forcing organizations to adopt a new approach to this problem. Implementing sustainability initiatives has become a priority for the social and environmental awareness of organizations that want to stay ahead of the curve. One of the business areas that has, more than others, proven to be a vital asset and a p

The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (The Declaration) has gained increasing attention as a tool for promoting indigenous rights. This study contributes to the discussion about its effectiveness by analysing the Declaration’s role in advancing indigenous peoples’ self-determination. A qualitative case study is conducted with Māori activists in New Zealand, using a rig

Digital gameplay is now firmly embedded in everyday practices in many Scandinavian homes. This paper deals with the constitution of such practices in families by taking a closer look at the material objects essential to play and their role in the “design of everyday life” (Shove et al 2007). It uses ethnographic method and anthropological practice theory to attend to the domestic spaces of leisure

IDO1 can be induced by interferon gamma (IFN-γ) in multiple cell types. We have earlier described that the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor zebularine also induces IDO1 in several rat cell clones. We now describe a synergistic induction of IDO1 expression by IFN-γ and zebularine. To elucidate the mechanism of the IDO1 induction we have studied the methylation status in the promoter region of the ID

The gun test stand from MAX-Lab has been upgraded and moved to a new facility at the MAX IV Laboratory. The new test stand will reuse parts of the equipment from the old test stand but a number of improvements to the setup are be made. In this paper we report on the design of the new gun test stand, research plans in the near future as well as planned and possible future research topics..

The Netherlands is a small country with a relatively large population which experienced a rapid rate of land use changes from 2000 to 2008 years due to the industrialization and population increase. Land use change is especially related to the urban expansion and open agriculture reduction due to the enhanced economic growth. This research reports an investigation into the application of remote se
