Popular Abstract in Swedish Det finns ett ökat intresse för behandling med talidomid. Därför var målsättningen med detta avhandlingsarbete att åstadkomma en mer ändamålsenlig användning. Några kemiska och farmakologiska aspekter med speciell inriktning på omsättningen av talidomid i människokroppen studerades. Historien om talidomid (Neurosedyn; varumärke i Sverige) är ett tragiskt kapitel i läkeThalidomide has a chiral center and the racemate of (+)-(R) and (-)-(S)-thalidomide was introduced as a hypnotic/sedative drug in 1957. In 1961 it was withdrawn due to teratogenicity and neuropathy. There is a growing interest in thalidomide treatment of immunomodulatory diseases. Given this renewed interest the aim of this thesis was to achieve a more rational use of thalidomide. Therefore some c
Popular Abstract in Swedish Paternalism i allmänläkarens vardag - om läkarens makt och patientens rätt till självbestämmande. I mitt vardagliga arbete som allmänläkare möter jag patienter med olika symtom och sjukdomar. Hur bör allmänläkaren förhålla sig till en patient som ställer krav på en åtgärd – en speciell undersökning, ett recept på en viss medicin eller ett intyg – som läkaren inte finneThe overall aim of this thesis was to identify and analyse situations raising the question of possible paternalism in everyday general practice in Sweden. Both questionnaires to a random sample of respondents and interviews have been used. The ethical awareness among GPs in Sweden and the variety of ethical issues, suggest that medical ethics is a subject of high relevance in general practice. Th
The lichen genus Allocetraria (Parmeliaceae) includes eight species distinguished by a palisade plectenchymatous cortex, asci with a very broad axial body, globose or subglobose ascospores, and filiform pycnoconidia. Two new species, A. flavonigrescens Thell et Randl. and A. sinensis Gao, are described, and the new combination A. denticulata (Hue) Thell & Randlane, A. globulans (Nyl.) Thell &a
Lead (Pb) is one of the most important models for biomonitoring of exposure, with the blood Pb concentration as a predominant choice in practice and in epidemiology. In this article the alternatives for biomarkers to blood are reviewed. This overview focuses on a number of different qualities that are of importance in the evaluation of a biomarker's usefulness and performance. The qualities scruti

A complete census of planetary systems around a volume-limited sample of solar-type stars (FGK dwarfs) in the Solar neighborhood (d a parts per thousand currency signaEuro parts per thousand 15 pc) with uniform sensitivity down to Earth-mass planets within their Habitable Zones out to several AUs would be a major milestone in extrasolar planets astrophysics. This fundamental goal can be achieved w
This paper examines load balancing issues relating to a distributed CORBA-based Service Control Point. Two types of load balancing strategies are explored through simulation studies: (i) a novel ant-based load balancing algorithm, which has been devised specically for this type of system. This algorithm is compared to more traditional algorithms, (ii) a method for optimal distribution of the compu
Secondary metabolites produced by fungi and bacteria are among the potential agents that contribute to adverse health effects observed in occupants of buildings affected by moisture damage, dampness and associated microbial growth. However, few attempts have been made to assess the occurrence of these compounds in relation to moisture damage and dampness in buildings. This study conducted in the c
Laser-induced fluorescence is a clinical diagnostic tool, used for tumor demarcation and detection. The technique relies on the injection or topical application of a light sensitive drug called a photosensitizer. This substance has the ability to be accumulated to higher concentrations in cancer cells than in normal cells. This accumulation procedure takes from a few hours to several days, dependin
Associations are not random. Semantic memory is structured in a way that when hearing a category name a listener will automatically think of exemplars belonging to this category. The order in which exemplars come to mind and the frequency of retrieval of exemplars across individuals are measures of category-exemplar associative strength. Associative strength affects a broad range of psychological

Gas cooling is a technique used within the fire service to reduce the risks of the hot gaseous layer and create a better visibility. It is achieved by applying water into the gaseous layer. Successfully performing or implementing this technique is something that has not yet been accomplished in every brigade. This work has been focused on different parameters that affect gas cooling and is studie
