UNLABELLED: We addressed the questions of how cerebral glucose transport and phosphorylation change under acute hypoglycemia and what the underlying mechanisms of adaptation are.METHODS: Quantitative (18)F-FDG PET combined with the acquisition of real-time arterial input function was performed on mice. Hypoglycemia was induced and maintained by insulin infusion. PET data were analyzed with the 2-t

This paper presents an evaluation of the Swedish pension system, using performance measures that accounts for higher moments of the distribution. The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between the classical Sharpe ratio and more sophisticated measures, while specifically focusing on the outcome of the default fund in the system. These additional measure consists of the ASSR which acco

In this letter, a magnetic dipole (M-dipole) and an electric dipole (E-dipole) are designed to form a collocated polarization-diversity-based dual-antenna system. The M-dipole is a modified shielded loop with multiple feed, and the E-dipole is a traditional λ/2 dipole. Measured results show that both radiators have ideal impedance matching and port isolation and identical omnidirectional pattern w

In Ref. [1], Spencer and Soldatos proposed an enhanced modelling approach for fibre-reinforced composites which accounts for the fibre-bending stiffness in addition to the directional dependency induced by the fibres. Although analytical solutions for simple geometries have been derived over the past years, often subject to specific assumptions such as small deformation kinematics, the application

The aggregation of the most common natural cyclodextrins (α-, β-, and γ-) in aqueous solutions is addressed by studying the CD-CD interactions using deuterium relaxation rates for deuterium labeled CDs. Relaxation times (T1) and their corresponding relaxation rates (R1 = 1/T1) provide information about the rotational correlation times of CDs and serve as a proxy for solute-solute interactions. Mea

Popular Abstract in Swedish Djur och människor exponeras hela tiden för virus, bakterier och andra parasiter. Många av dessa virus och bakterier är ofarliga, medan andra orsakar infektioner och gör oss sjuka. När ett djur smittas av t.ex. ett virus eller en bakterie som orsakar en infektion börjar deras immunförsvar direkt arbetet med att bli av med infektionen. Den första reaktionen som följer påPathogen challenges and host immune defenses can have substantial impact on life history patterns of animals. Biotic and abiotic factors may affect immunity in wild animals, influencing e.g., population dynamics and sexual selection. The overall aim of this thesis was to assess costs and benefits of immune system activation on physiology, behavior and offspring phenotype. The conducted research ha

Aims This study examines the association between the incidence of drug abuse (DA) and linking (communal) social capital, a theoretical concept describing the amount of trust between individuals and societal institutions. Methods We present results from an 8-year population-based cohort study that followed all residents in Sweden, aged 15–44, from 2003 through 2010, for a total of 1,700,896 men and

Background: Pancreatic cancer has the lowest survival rate among all the major cancer types. Although recent decades have seen advances in diagnostic imaging, surgical techniques, perioperative care and oncological treatment, this has not been translated into major improvements in clinical outcome. The 5-year survival rate remains less than 10% for all stages. One important unmet clinical need is

Architectural education is most of the time based on architectural tasks with little connection to real circumstances of a building process. The projects focuses on design and the result of the projects is abstractions of the reality, such as drawings, diagrams and models. Architecture through practice aims to explore parts of the architectural practice which we usually don’t have to think about i

Denna studie tillhör fältet strategisk kommunikation och digitala medier och har till syfte att förstå hur diskurs konstruerar den parakris som råder på mejeriföretaget Arlas Instagramkonto. Ett socialkonstruvistiskt perspektiv gentemot verkligheten och ett hermeneutiskt anseende gentemot mening har agerat som ett ramverk för denna studie. Det empiriska materialet har samlats in genom en kvalitati

Environmental brand activism has become a strategy applied by many brands to engage and take a stand in the issue of climate change. The aim is to spur a debate and spark an interest and collective action among the consumers (Sarkar & Kotler, 2018). However, environmental brand activism has not created the same kind of engagement and debate as other forms of brand activism (Manfredi-Sánchez, 2

Vombsänkan är en av Sveriges största grundvattenförekomster, den sträcker sig från utkanten av Lunds kommun i norr till kusträckan längs med Ystad kommun i söder. Med anledning av att grundvattentillgången är god i Vombsänkan, utgör detta magasin en samhällsviktig resurs i syfte att förse stora delar av Skånes befolkning med dricksvatten. Grundvattnet förser även jordbrukare med bevattningsmöjlighVombsänkan is one of the largest groundwater aquifers in Sweden, it can be divided into a southeastern part with a limestone aquifer and a northwestern part with an aquifer in soil. The limestone aquifer is confined, since it’s overlain by low-permeability soils. All wells for irrigation and municipal purposes are drilled into the limestone rock. The goal is to establish a hydraulic groundwater mo

Using a choice experiment, this paper investigates how Swedish citizens value three environmental quality objectives. In addition, a follow-up question is used to investigate whether respondents ignored any attributes when responding. The resulting information is used in model estimation by restricting the individual parameters for the ignored attributes to zero. When taking the shares of responde

Climate change poses one of the most substantial threats to humanity today global greenhouse gas emissions are not reduced drastically in the near future, it can lead to severe consequences worldwide. To address this issue, global and national goals have been developed which aim to foster climate-neutral societies and industries. Since emissions from the construction industry are shown to have a s

Multiplicity-correlation measurements provide insight into the dynamics of high-energy collisions. Models describing these collisions need these correlation measurements to tune the strengths of the underlying QCD processes which influence all observables. Detectors, however, often possess limited coverage or reduced efficiency that influence correlation measurements in obscure ways. In this paper

Based on the multiphase field conception and integrated with the idea of vector valued phase fields, a phase field model for typical allotropic transformation of solid solution is proposed. The model takes the non-uniform distribution of grain boundaries of the parent phase and the crystal orientation into account, as illustrated in simulations of austenite to ferrite transformation in low carbon Based on multiphase field conception and integrated with the idea of vectorvalued phase field, a phase field model for typical allotropic transformation of solid solution is proposed. The model takes the non-uniform distribution of grain boundaries of parent phase and crystal orientation into account in proper way, as being illustrated by the simulation of austenite to ferrite transformation in lo
