Contact metamorphism of Palaeozoic shale in southern Sweden: influences on clay mineralogy and implications for railway construction material properties

Abundant shale fragments were observed in dolerite material used for railway construction in western Skane, due to quarrying of Permo-Carboniferous dolerite in contact with Silurian shale (the Colonus Shale) in the Ronnarp Quarry, western Skane. Shale fragments were particularly enriched in the finest fractions of the crushed rock material. We analysed the clay mineralogy of shale from the railway

Subjective Health and Illness, Coping and Life Satisfaction in an 80-Year-Old Swedish Population - Implications for Mortality

Background: Multimorbidity and illness will become more common due to increased life expectancy. Purpose: This study describes various combinations of diseases and symptoms and explores implications for survival in a sample of 80 year-olds followed up to 95 years of age. Furthermore, reported subjective health, coping, and life satisfaction is explored. Method: 212 persons, born in 1908, were cl

Modeling climate conditions required for glacier formation in cirques of the Rassepautasjtjakka massif, northern Sweden

Timing of cirque formation and the climate necessary to initiate glaciation are fundamental to the understanding of the landscape of the northern Scandinavian mountains. Empty cirques in the Rassepautasjtjakka massif are located near a glaciated area and thus appear near the glaciation limit. In order to investigate the climate conditions necessary for glacier formation in the cirques, we applied

Genetic polymorphism of chemokine receptors CCR2 and CCR5 in Swedish cervical cancer patients

Chemokines are chemotactic cytokines that orchestrate leukocyte trafficking in tissues, thus, playing an important role in regulation of immunological processes. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and cervical cancer with two DNA polymorphisms of the chemokine receptors CCR5-Delta 32 and CCR2-64L The study material consisted of 50 cervi

Geological relations and U-Pb geochronology of Hyttsjo granites in the Langban-Nordmark area, western Bergslagen, Sweden

The Hyttsjo granites occur in the extensively mineralised Langban-Nordmark area in the westernmost part of the Bergslagen ore province. They have been classified as late Svecokarelian granites due to their homogeneous and generally isotropic appearance in addition to a WR Rb/Sr age. Moreover, they have been considered as possible candidates for supplying essential metals to epigenetic mineralisati

Radiotherapy and tamoxifen after mastectomy in postmenopausal women - 20 year follow-up of the South Sweden Breast Cancer group randomised trial SSBCG II : I

Aims: To evaluate long-term effects of radiotherapy and tamoxifen after mastectomy on recurrence and survival in stage II breast cancer. Methods: A randomised phase III study with three treatment alternatives. (1) Radiotherapy 50 Gy/2S fractions to chest wall and regional lymph nodes (RT). (2) Radiotherapy and tamoxifen 30 mg/day for one year (RT + tam) and 3. Tamoxifen (tam). Results: 724 postmen
