The nucleus Ge-68 has been studied by gamma-ray spectroscopy following its population at high spin in the reaction Ca-40(S-32,4p) Ge-68. The reaction channel was selected with the Microball array and gamma rays were detected with the Gammasphere array. The level scheme is very complex, reflecting the many different, and presumably mixed, excitation modes in this nucleus. Nevertheless, there appear

Analysing datasets from hunting statistics and human cases of tick-borne encephalitis (TBE), we found a positive correlation between the number of human TBE cases and the number of red fox (Vulpes vulpes). Time lags were also present, indicating that high numbers of red fox in 1 y translated into high numbers of human TBE cases the following y. Results for smaller predators were mixed and inconsis

Neuroblastoma is a childhood malignancy of the sympathetic neuronal lineage. It is a rare disease, but since it is frequently diagnosed during infancy, neuroblastoma causes life-long medical follow up of those children that survive the disease. It was early recognized that a high tumor cell differentiation stage correlates to favorable clinical stage and positive clinical outcome. Today, highly di

As a post-LOSC legal development, the precautionary principle is nowhere enunciated in the Law of the Sea Convention. Nevertheless, in the thirty years since the LOSC's adoption, the significance of the precautionary principle for marine environmental protection in general and marine resource conservation in particular has been recognised. The language of precaution, the precautionary principle an

Popular Abstract in Swedish Sedan introduktionen av transistorn och den integrerade kretsen har teknologin inom halvledarindustrin utvecklats i en mycket hög takt. Genom att bygga allt mindre och snabbare transistorer har en exponentiell förbättring av prestanda bibehållits sedan 1960-talet, ett fenomen känt som Moores Lag. Fram tills nyligen har utvecklingen mot högre prestanda och fler transistoSince the introduction of the transistor and the integrated circuit, the semiconductor industry has developed at a remarkable pace. By continuously fabricating smaller and faster transistors, it has been possible to maintain an exponential increase in performance, a phenomenon famously described by Moore’s Law. Today, billions of transistors are integrated on a single chip and the size of a transi

Popular Abstract in Swedish Psoriasis är en av våra vanligaste folksjukdomar, som drabbar 2-3 % av den vuxna befolkningen. Man vet i dag att många patienter med psoriasis lider av psykisk ohälsa och sänkt livskvalitet. Sjukdomen i sig innebär ofta en stor psykologisk påfrestning för patienten, men stress och psykisk ohälsa också kan vara en viktig orsak till insjuknande och återfall av psoriasis.

When a child is diagnosed with diabetes, the symptoms may be in its most severe form with ketoacidosis, to mild symptoms of diabetes, detected incidentally. Moderate and severe symptoms of diabetes presentation require infusion therapy and thereby necessitate hospitalisation for the first few days. The initial management is largely a preparation for family members to help them gain the practical u

An ultrastructural study of the intestine of Derocheilocaris typica revealed an organization of the midgut musculature, which is unique in the Crustacea. This species unusual anal skeletomusculature has also not been seen before. The intestinal musculature of D. typica displays different patterns in the fore-, mid-, and hindgut. Around the foregut, eight pairs of dilator muscles complement a conti

Popular Abstract in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning på svenska (Comprehensive summary in Swedish) Stora kroppspulsådern är det centrala kärl som från hjärtat leder blodet vidare till kroppens alla organ. När kroppspulsåderns kärlvägg försvagas resulterar detta i en utvidgning (bråck). Ett kroppspulsåderbråck sitter vanligtvis i nivå med naveln, strax nedom kärlen som försörjer njurarnaAbstract Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a hideous life threatening disease that most often is asymptomatic until it ruptures. Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (rAAA) is a painful and serious predicament with a mortality of 80-90%. Half of the patients die before arriving to hospital, leaving family members in sorrow and shock. In Sweden about 700-1000 patients die each year due to rAAA, cor
