www.lu.se New ideas for eco-labelling! CASE 3 - GREEN FINANCE FROM THE SWEDISH SOCIETY FOR NATURE CONSERVATION (PAGE 1/2) In the spring edition of the Sustainability Forum Case Competition SSNC has provided us with a case on green finance. The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation (SSNC) is at the forefront with their eco-label Good Environmental Choice (Bra Miljöval). In a new and re- cently st

Recent studies suggest that a proportion of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients in deep molecular remission can discontinue the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment without disease relapse. In this multi-center, prospective clinical trial (EURO-SKI, NCT01596114) we analyzed the function and phenotype of T and NK cells and their relation to successful TKI cessation. Lymphocyte subclasses w

Metastatic breast cancer is usually diagnosed after becoming symptomatic, at which point it is rarely curable. Cell-free circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) contains tumor-specific chromosomal rearrangements that may be interrogated in blood plasma. We evaluated serial monitoring of ctDNA for earlier detection of metastasis in a retrospective study of 20 patients diagnosed with primary breast cancer and

The profound impacts on human rights brought about by international and regional trade agreements have increasingly been recognized by scholars in the fields of human rights and trade, as well as international organizations and civil societies. Most notably, the intersection between human rights and trade has been reaffirmed by the United Nations, evidently in the reports by the United Nations Hig

The overall aim of this thesis was to increase knowledge about physiotherapy treatment for infants with lower respiratory tract infections, which is the most common reason for infant hospitalisation worldwide. Physiotherapy treatment for these infants is debated, and there is no clear consensus regarding the best treatment strategy.To examine current treatment and evaluation methods in Sweden, we

The hospital morbidity and mortality of 100 patients operated with two internal thoracic arteries with or without additional vein grafts (BITA group) were compared with a matched group of 100 patients operated with one left internal thoracic artery (ITA) on the anterior descending artery with additional vein grafts (LITA control group). In each study group, 3% of the patients had diabetes mellitus

Background: Infants with congenital heart defects (CHD) are at risk for white matter brain injury. This novel rat pup model characterizes the systemic effects of intravasal cell-free hemoglobin and hyperoxia, hypothesizing that immature endogenous scavenging systems relate to increased vulnerability to conditions present during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods: Plasma pharmacokinetics of cell-

Background: The variable clinical outcomes of mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC)-based therapy in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are attributed to a variety of factors, including host microenvironmental factors. Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) has been linked to the development and progression of ARDS, and we have previously found that IL-1β could be used to predict MSC activation in vitro. However

We are using the label-free technique of holographic microscopy to analyze cellular parameters including cell number, confluence, cellular volume and area directly in the cell culture environment. We show that death-induced cells can be distinguished from untreated counterparts by the use of holographic microscopy, and we demonstrate its capability for cell death assessment. Morphological analysis

Popular Abstract in Swedish C4b-bindande protein (C4BP) är involverat i regleringen av två kaskadliknande system, komplementsystemet och koagulationssystemet. Komplementsystemet har fått sitt namn av att det kompletterar antikropparna i immunförsvaret. Det består av en serie reaktioner som leder till oskadliggörandet av bakterier och andra mikroorganismer. Genom sin förmåga att binda till och inakC4b-binding protein (C4BP) is an acute-phase plasma glycoprotein which regulates the complement system through its affinity for C4b. In addition, C4BP binds to the anticoagulant protein S and to serum amyloid P component (SAP). Protein S is a vitamin K-dependent protein which looses its anticoagulant properties when binding to C4BP. C4BP is composed of two types of subunits, the a-chain and the b-

Detta examensarbete ger ett förslag på en ny järnvägsstation i Kirunas nya centrum. I Kiruna pågår just nu en stadsomvandling, där en tredjedel av staden flyttas tre kilometer österut på grund av markdeformationer från Kirunagruvan. Detta innebär stora förändringar för Kirunaborna men även stora förändringar i stadsbilden, då majoriteten av centrum har eller kommer rivas och byggas upp igen i nya This thesis gives a suggestion for a new railway station in the new city center of Kiruna, Sweden. Kiruna is now experiencing an urban transformation, where one third of the population and the city moves three kilometers to the east due to ground deformations coming from the Kiruna iron ore mine. This leads to huge changes for Kiruna’s population, but also huge changes in the cityscape, since most

Lead halide perovskites (LHPs) photoelectrodes for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting are promising candidates for solar-to-fuel conversion. However, the poor stability of LHPs in aqueous electrolyte media, together with the toxicity of lead, restricts the practical application of LHP photoelectrodes. Herein, we report the first-ever colloidal synthesis of quaternary Cu1.4Ag0.6BiI5 nanocry

The stem cell factor receptor/c-Kit plays an important physiological role in hematopoesis, melanogenesis and gametogenesis. It has also been implicated in numerous human malignancies. Signal transduction pathways shown to be of importance for c-Kit mediated transformation include the PI3-kinase/Akt pathway. We have previously shown that two alternative splice forms of c-Kit, denoted GNNK- and GNNK

BACKGROUND: Oct 3/4 (Octamer 3/4), a member of POU family has been considered as an important stem cell marker and essential transcription factor during human embryogenesis. In recent years, there have also been reports on presence of Oct 3/4 in differentiated benign and malignant human cells. The objective of this study was to investigate the transcription and the protein expression of Oct 3/4 is

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD) are increasingly used in research centers, clinical trials, and clinical settings. However, their broad-scale use is hampered by lack of standardization across analytical platforms and by interference from binding of amyloid-beta(A beta) to matrix proteins as well as self-aggregation. Here, we report on a matrix effect-resistant met

This thesis presents a complete digital back-end implementation of a PN-dither least-mean-squares (LMS) background calibration scheme for a 12-bit, 500 MS/s pipeline analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The target converter, designed by a parallel analog project, comprises four 3-bit stages and a 4-bit final flash stage; its actual inter-stage gains depart substantially from their nominal values, re

Advances in liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry have significantly improved proteomic analyses of human plasma. However, information at the level of intact proteoforms remains limited due to the high dynamic range of protein abundance and the complexity of post-translational modifications. To address this challenge, we introduce soluble plasma proteoform analysis via acetonitrile precipitation

Introduction: The treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis is based on cytoreduction followed by hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy and combined with adjuvant chemotherapy. In 2003, a randomized trial was finished comparing systemic chemotherapy alone with cytoreduction followed by hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy and systemic chemotherapy. This trial showed a positive result favorin
