This article aims to estimate the prevalence of SOX13 antibodies in Swedish patients with type 1 diabetes and healthy controls. The patients (n = 102; median age 35 years [range, 9-89]) were newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in a defined area in southern Sweden during 1995-1998. Islet cell antibodies (ICA) were analyzed with immunofluorescence, while glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies (GADA
PURPOSE: To study endovascular graft attachment with self-expanding Gianturco Z-stents and balloon-expanded Palmaz stents and the effect of these devices on the renal ostia. METHODS: Ten stent-grafts were constructed, 5 with Gianturco Z-stents and 5 with Palmaz stents. The endografts were implanted under fluoroscopic guidance into the abdominal aorta of 10 pigs so that the uncovered portion of the
This e-book contains contributions from two sessions at the archaeological conference Nordic TAG VIII that took place in Lund in 2005. It is also the first volume of a digital publication, Archaeology @ Lund, published by the Department of Archaeology and Ancient History at Lund University. The two sessions that are published together here are The Practical Aspects of the History of Archaeology an
Projekt Turnstone är ett samverkansprojekt delvis finansierat av Europeiska kommissionen. Projektet är ett initiativ av Stockholmspolisens gränsbevakningsenhet. Syftet med Projekt Turnstone är att minska gränsöverskridande brottslighet, förbättra dagligt samarbete mellan gräns, polis och kustbevakare i Östersjöregionen och förbättra säkerheten för passagerare i Östersjöregionen utan att göra avkalProject Turnstone is a collaborative project funded in part by the European Commission. The project is an initiative by the Stockholm Police. The purpose of the project is to improve day-to-day cooperation between border officers in the Baltic Sea region, decrease trans-boundary criminality, and increase security for passengers in the Baltic Sea area without compromising freedom of movement. Withi
Using a combined experimental and theoretical approach, we show that a thin RhO2 oxide film forms on a Pt25Rh75(100) surface at elevated oxygen pressures and temperatures prior to the bulk oxidation. By the use of in situ surface x-ray diffraction under realistic CO oxidation reaction conditions, we show that the onset of the growth of thin RhO2 oxide film coincides with an increase in CO2 product
The new clusters [Ru-3(CO)(9)(mu-dppf){P(C4H3E)(3)}] (1, E = O; 2, E = S) have been prepared from the Me3NO-induced decarbonylation of [Ru-3(CO)(10)(mu-dppf)] in the presence of PFu(3) (E = O) and PTh3 (E = S), respectively. Upon thermolysis in benzene, the major products are the cyclometalated clusters [(mu-H) Ru-3(CO)(7)(mu-dppf){mu(3)-(C4H3E)(2)P(C4H2E)}] (3, E - O; 4, E - S). This thermolytic
Reaction of tri(2-furyl) phosphine (PFu(3)) with [Re-2(CO)(10) (n)(NCMe)(n)] (n = 1, 2) at 40 degrees C gave the substituted complexes [Re-2(CO)(10) (n)(PFu(3))(n)] (1 and 2), the phosphines occupying axial position in all cases. Heating [Re-2(CO)(10)] and PFu(3) in refluxing xylene also gives 1 and 2 together with four phosphido-bridged complexes; [Re-2(CO)(8) (n)(PFu(3))(n)(mu-PFu(2))(mu-H)] (n
Feedback in server systems has during last years gained much interest in order to fulfill still increasing demands on performance and optimization regarding, for example, quality of service (QoS) requirements. In this paper we investigate a feedback–based prediction scheme for controlling a single server queue. This control structure has the benefit over other previously suggested control structur
This paper presents a low complexity, yet power efficient technique to boost the flexibility of a pipelined ADC. It also presents an implementation proposal with simulated results for a reconfigurable pipelined ADC. The proposed ADC architecture is a combination of the conventional pipelined ADC and the cyclic ADC, giving it a very low level of complexity, a high level of component reuse and subst
With her 1953 debut Anna Rydstedt (1928-1994) immediately became part of a strong tradition of Swedish women poets, a tradition represented by authors such as Karin Boye and Edith Södergran. The debut was a furious attack on those who had thwarted her attempts to become a minister in the Church of Sweden. Rydstedt’s poetry is always existential, both in its content and process. Writing, for her, i
Waste in form of fat, oil and grease (FOG) is generated where food is prepared or consumed, e.g. in households. If collected properly, the household FOG could be interesting for biogas production. This fraction has been source-separated and collected separately in a residential area in Malmö, Sweden. The biogas potential has been evaluated by mesophilic digestion experiments. Both single-substrate
With the advent of massive online encyclopedic corpora such as Wikipedia, it has become possible to apply a systematic analysis to a wide range of documents covering a significant part of human knowledge. Using semantic parsers, it has become possible to extract such knowledge in the form of propositions (predicate―argument structures) and build large proposition databases from these documents. Th
Popular Abstract in Swedish Som en blixt från klar himmel drabbas en ung, och till synes frisk person, av hjärnblödning. Denna stroke leder till demens och efterföljande nya blödningar leder slutligen till en för tidig död. Man har kunnat visa att denna sjukdom beror på att en variant av ett visst protein, cystatin C, tvinnar ihop sig till rep-liknande långa fibriller. Dessa fibriller ansamlas sedAmyloidosis is a group of diseases characterized by a change in protein conformation resulting in aggregation and tissue deposition of amyloid fibrils. One variant of cystatin C, L68Q cystatin C, is highly amyloidogenic and persons carrying the corresponding gene suffer from massive cerebral amyloidosis leading to brain hemorrhage and death. Amyloidogenic proteins like cystatin C and prion protein
Background: It has been shown previously that an anterior cruciate ligament injury may affect postural control, measured by balance in single-limb stance. To our knowledge, no studies have reported the influence of measures of impairment on postural control after such an injury. Purpose: To assess the influence of knee laxity, proprioception, and muscle strength on balance in single-limb stance an
Objective: The aims of this study were to investigate outcomes of older people's use of powered wheelchairs and risk factors for negative outcomes. Design: The study was a cross-sectional interview-study including 111 powered wheelchair users over 65 years of age. Results: All participants used their powered wheelchair in the summer; nearly all users regarded it as important and found that it gave
Recent studies have suggested that sensory nerves may influence insulin secretion and action. The present study investigated the effects of resiniferatoxin (RTX) inactivation of sensory nerves ( desensitization) on oral glucose tolerance, insulin secretion and whole body insulin sensitivity in the glucose intolerant, hyperinsulinemic, and insulin-resistant obese Zucker rat. After RTX treatment (0.
Cell surface proteins of the human gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori, reference strain CCUG 17874, were extracted with acid glycine and fractionated by heparin affinity chromatography. The extracts were subsequently analysed using high-resolution two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and immunoblotting. Four proteins of low molecular masses (25-30 kDa) stained by Coomassie R-350, were iden
