Tubes form the basic structure of several organs like lungs, kidneys, glandular organs like the pancreas, mammary and salivary glands. Tube formation involves a series of dynamic and interdependent cellular processes, including cytoskeletal reorganization, assembly of intercellular junctional complexes, and cell polarization. Understanding how cells polarize and coordinate tubulogenesis during org

We study geometric reconstruction problems in one-dimensional retina vision. In such problems, the scene is modeled as a two-dimensional plane, and the camera sensor produces one-dimensional images of the scene. Our main contribution is an efficient method for computing the global optimum to the structure and motion problem with respect to the L-infinity norm of the reprojection errors. One-dimens

The phase behavior of systems containing sodium alkyl polypropylene oxide sulfate with equimolar ratio of polypropylene oxide ammonium chloride was determined as a function of salt concentration and alkane carbon number at ambient temperature. Visual inspection as well as cross polarizers were used to detect anisotropy. Solubilization ratios for oil and brine in the middle phases were measured and

Objective To elucidate psychosexual problems in women referred for colposcopy after an abnormal cervical smear and a 6-month and 2-year follow up. Design Prospective study. Setting Department of Gynaecology, Malmö University Hospital, Sweden. Population One hundred consecutive women referred for colposcopy for the first time subsequent to receiving notification of an abnormal cervical smear. M

Using 14 waves of panel data, this paper investigates why employees entering the primary sector exit subsequently. Transition probabilities are explained by a rich set of individual, regional and sectoral characteristics and a discrete-time competing risks model with unrestricted base-line hazards is used to distinguish between exits into a job in other sectors and other exits. The results confirm

Two different frequency doubling power amplifier topologies have been compared, one with differential input and one with single-ended, both with single-ended output at 60 GHz. The frequency doubling capability is valuable from at least two perspectives, 1) the high frequency signal is on the chip as little as possible 2) the voltage controlled oscillator and power amplifier are at different freque

Fashion's universal nature does not preclude strong variations in its significance from society to society. As a stratification variable, fashion's importance increases in step with economic growth. Simmel sees the ‘need for distinction’ and the ‘need for union’ as preconditions for fashion, with certain societies lacking the necessary motivation. Variations in fashion's importance have also been

The electronic and molecular structures of an electrochemically reduced and oxidized triarylamine layer (((3-ethyl(p-N,N-dimethylamino)phenyl)amino)propyl-1-phosphonic acid) adsorbed on a nanocrystalline TiO2 film have been investigated. Photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) measurements on electrochemically prepared surfaces and density functional theory (DFT) calculations for the free triarylamine mo

Detta bidrag vid en internationell konferens i Heidelberg 2001 utgår från Sverigeräkningen 1999 och ställer frågan vad en religiös minoritet är, relaterat till den "passiva" majoriteten och de "aktiva" minoriteterna. Den skandinaviska miljöns väg från begränsad tolerans till religiös pluralism leder till ett avsnitt om civilreligion och religiösa minoriteter. Därefter behandlas den svenska riksdag

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling handlar om skapandet, användningen och avfärdandet av ett socialt begrepp ? utbrändhet. Avhandlingen är ett försök att förklara den komplexa interaktionen mellan individers handlande och deras sociala miljö samt hur detta producerar ett transient fenomen ? utbrändhetsdiagnosen (en ny olycklig människotyp). Följaktligen handlar det om en analys av ett koThis is a thesis about the genesis, use, and decline of burn-out as a social concept in Sweden. The burn-out concept is treated as social because its classification of people interacts with the people classified. As a consequence of this, burn-out is studied in a dynamic holistic way, as an entirely social system within Swedish society. Hence it follows that the main question examined in the thesi
