Abstract. Objectives. To ascertain whether a relationship exists between the PiZ alpha1‐antitrypsin (α1AT) variant and antineutrophil cytoplasm antibodies (ANCA)‐positive vasculitis in a large group of Swedish patients, and whether analysis for the presence of the PiZ variant might be useful for diagnostic or prognostic purposes. Design. Retrospective cross‐sectional study. Setting. The Departmen

Increased wealth and per capita energy use have transformed lives and shaped societies, but energy poverty remains a global challenge. Previous research has shown positive relationships among metrics of health and happiness and economic indices such as income and gross domestic product and between energy use and human development. To our knowledge, however, no comprehensive assessment has examined

Previously, it has been indicated that oat polar lipids included in a liquid meal may have the potential to beneficially modulate various cardiometabolic variables. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of oat polar lipids in a solid food matrix on acute and second meal glucose tolerance, blood lipids, and concentrations of gut-derived hormones. The oat polar lipids were consumed a

INTRODUCTION: Many depressed patients do not achieve remission with available treatments. Anhedonia is a common residual symptom associated with treatment resistance as well as low function and quality of life. There are currently no specific and effective treatments for anhedonia. Some trials have shown that dopamine agonist pramipexole is efficacious for treating depression, but more data is nee

Atmospheric inversions are used to derive constraints on the net sources and sinks of CO2 and other stable atmospheric tracers from their observed concentrations. The resolution and accuracy that the fluxes can be estimated with depends, among other factors, on the quality and density of the observational coverage, on the precision and accuracy of the transport model used by the inversion to relat

In this thesis degradation of chlorinated solvents, e.g., tetrachloroethene (perchloroethylene [PCE]), has been examined, both natural occurring degradation and in situ remediation strategies. The projects included have focused on two field sites of former dry-cleaning facilities, which are contaminated with PCE in both the groundwater and the sediments. One site had only been exposed to natural d

Background and Objective: Even if treatment with stem cells has been shown to be safe and effective in many patients with stress urinary incontinence (SUI), there is still room for improvement using other regenerative medicine alternatives. Since the beneficial effects of stem cells are probably mediated by secretion of factors rather than by the cells themselves there is a good rationale for furt

Background. Climate change is the greatest threat to human health in the 21st century and healthcare contributes to approximately 5% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Intensive and perioperative care are particularly resource intensive. This thesis aimed to assess the climate and environmental impacts of perioperative and intensive care (Papers I–III) and to explore how environmental outcomes an

Popular Abstract in Swedish Arbetet i denna avhandling syftar till att förbättra etanolproduktionen från lignocellulosa. Etanol framställd från förnyelsebara råvaror har fått förnyad uppmärksamhet på grund av den växande medvetenheten om den globala uppvärmningen och farhågor för en trytande tillgång på olja. Lignocellulosa utgör en potentiell råmaterialkälla för framtida storskalig etanolproduktiThe work presented in this thesis has been aiming at improving ethanol production from lignocellulose. Ethanol from renewable resources is receiving renewed attention due to apprehensions of global warming and dwindling oil reserves. Lignocellulose constitutes a potential raw material source for large scale ethanol production. To produce ethanol from lignocellulose, the hemicellulose and cellulose

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett flertal produkter som framställs inom den kemiska och biotekniska industrin produceras i stora turbinomrörda tankar. Kvaliteten av produkten och utbytet av processen påverkas av blandningsförhållandena i dessa tankar. Blandningsförhållandena i processen påverkas av vätskans hastighet och dess intensitet. I olika regioner av reaktorn, impeller regionen och bulk regiTurbine-agitated tanks are used in chemical and biochemical applications to increase mixing which, in turn, affects the yield, productivity and product quality. The purpose of this work was to study the hydrodynamic influence on the scale-up of turbine-agitated tanks, commonly used in fermentation. Local turbulent flow parameters, the turbulent kinetic energy and the local energy dissipation rate,

Background: Epidemiological studies have shown that many welders experience respiratory symptoms. During the welding process a large number of airborne nanosized particles are generated, which might be inhaled and deposited in the respiratory tract. Knowledge of the underlying mechanisms behind observed symptoms is still partly lacking, although inflammation is suggested to play a central role. Th

Purpose: We examined if data-driven food-patterns associate with weight change, incidence of type 2 diabetes (T2D), coronary events (CE) and stroke. Methods: The study included 20,487 individuals (61% women) from the Malmö Diet and Cancer cohort, 45–74 years, without diabetes and CVD at baseline (1991–1996) and who did not report dietary changes. Diet was measured with a modified diet history meth

Software developers are gaining increasing influence within every company they work for and work with. Engaging at C-level is no longer sufficient: the software developer is now a powerful force in decision-making.This book is intended to be the “textbook” for those working - or starting - in developer marketing. It will teach you how to engage with developers to build a two-way relationship that

A comparison was made between two plant peroxidases, cationic horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and anionic tobacco peroxidase (TOP), combined with a highly cationic osmium polymer [Os(4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine)2poly(N-vinylimidazole)10Cl]+2/+ ([Os(dmp)PVI]+/2+) to develop highly sensitive, stable and selective hydrogen peroxide biosensors. The two different plant peroxidases were individually immo

Chromatography is an important separation process for several industries due to its ability to separate components with similar physical properties, which are difficult to separate otherwise. This method may also give high product purity, which is necessary for production of biopharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. However, conventional feedback control systems cannot be utilized to control most chr

This paper explores market integration in Lao PDR, focusing on the beer market. At the time of analysis, the Lao beer market exhibited some highly unusual features that facilitate our exploration. Beer Lao, the domestic beer brand, was completely dominant in the market – importation of beer was not allowed, and informal (illegal) imports were of very limited importance. Beer Lao was produced in on

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vid tillagning av kött, och framför allt stekning och grillning, bildas mutagena ämnen i stekskorpan. Dessa ämnen benämns heterocykliska aminer. Flera epidemiologiska studier har visat ett samband mellan uppkomsten av cancer och intaget av heterocykliska aminer, medan några studier inte finner något samband. Ämnena har också visat kunna utveckla tumörer och cancer i djuCommonly cooked meat dishes contain heterocyclic amines (HAs) at ng/g levels. HAs are animal carcinogens, form DNA adducts in human tissues, and have been associated with increased risk of cancer in epidemiological studies, and it is thus recommended that human intake be decreased. The aim of this investigation was to find ways of modifying cooking practices to reduce the formation of HAs. Various
