Activation of the contact system has two classical consequences: initiation of the intrinsic pathway of coagulation, and cleavage of high molecular weight kininogen (HK) leading to the release of bradykinin, a potent proinflammatory peptide. In human plasma, activation of the contact system at the surface of significant bacterial pathogens was found to result in further HK processing and bacterial
Disperse dyes are the most common contact sensitizers among textile dyes. The main aim of this study was to investigate the outcome of patch testing with a textile dye mix 6.6%. A total of 2,049 patients from Sweden and 497 from Belgium were tested with the mix, consisting of Disperse (D) Blue 35, D Yellow 3, D Orange 1 and 3, D Red 1 and 17, 1.0% each, and D Blue 106 and D Blue 124, 0.3% each. Of
Popular Abstract in Swedish Kostfiber visar på gynnsamma effekter på blodsockersvar, inflammationsmarkörer och blodfetter utifrån tre humanstudier som genomfördes i detta arbete. I en av studierna analyserades blod och urin med metabolomik. Det är en metod där man analyserar alla små molekyler (metaboliter) som finns i provet med hjälp av vätskekromatografi kopplat till masspektrometri. Med hjälp It is well-known that dietary fibre can have a positive effect on the development of lifestyle-dependent diseases such as cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. However, the effect may be different for different kinds of fibre and different sub-populations at risk. Therefore, the effects of three different kinds of fibre on postprandial and long-term response in healthy subjects were investig
Today, the demand for shorter lead times, shorter production runs and more diversified products is a general market trend, which puts pressure on logistics systems. When adapting to this trend, agile manufacturing becomes increasingly important. Flexible printing activities, in particular, are needed when products and packaging designs increasingly are to be adapted for niche markets. This study s
We investigated intracapsular pressure and elasticity of the hip joint capsule in osteoarthritis. HOOS hip score, sonography of the hip joint, and radiographic assessment of osteoarthritis were performed in 31 patients before total hip arthroplasty. The intracapsular hydrostatic pressure was measured perioperatively, and 0.9% saline solution was then injected in the hip joint, 1 mL at a time with
We studied the solubilization of oil in the C16E8/hexadecane/H2O system. Close to the phase inversion temperature (PIT), the system, at equilibrium, can form either homogeneous states (i.e., microemulsions) at high surfactant concentrations or three-phase states at lower concentrations. We show that, under gentle shear, at a line we named the clearing boundary (CB), located a few degrees below the
A gated tunnel diode has been introduced into a wave-guide oscillator circuit and the gate is used to tune the oscillation frequency and to turn the oscillator on and off. Oscillators with oscillation frequencies in the range of 9-22 GHz with a typical oscillator output power about -20 dBm have been fabricated. We found that the output power remains essentially constant over a gate bias range (abo
A new parameterization is proposed to link the droplet number concentration to the size distribution and chemical composition of aerosol and updraft velocity. Except for an empirical assumption of droplet growth, the parameterization is formulated almost entirely on first principles to allow for satisfactory performance under a variety of conditions. For a series of updraft velocity ranging from 0
Microsoft Word - Konferensbidrag - Realtidsövning för lärande i sammanhang.doc Sammanfattning — Realtidsövning för lärande i sammanhang är en övning i ett verklighetstroget scenario där studenterna tar beslut och agerar i realtid, samt systematiskt reflekterar över dessa beslut och handlingar. Det är detta systematiska och lärarledda växelspel mellan självständigt agerande och reflektion som är re

As the climate warms, the timing of plant phenology around the world is changing in response. Herbarium records offer a wealth of data that can be used to analyze phenological trends over time. While much research has been done on early spring flowering species, there is still a dearth of knowledge of climate change effects on summer and autumn flowering species. This study uses herbarium data to
According to traditional trade theory, trade reduces inequality between the rich and the poor. However, since the beginning of the 1980s, a constantly rise in within-country inequality has been observed in many developed and developing countries. With the rapidly increasing globalization during the same period in mind, a natural question to ask is whether the two phenomenon are linked. In this pap
Magnetit är ett mineral med ferrimagnetiska egenskaper, vilket betyder att det har två magnetiska moment riktade mot varandra. Men ett av dessa moment är dock starkare än det andra vilket gör att ett netto-magnetiskt moment bildas. Detta gör att en bit magnetit kan fungera som en vanlig handmagnet. Dessa magnetiska egenskaper hos mineralet drog tidigt till sig uppmärksamhet i gamla tider och magneThe ambition of this project is to assist in the pursuance of understanding the metal to insulator transition found in magnetite at ~120 K. The transition is itself very complex and links together the charge order, orbital order and lattice distortion of magnetite with its magnetic properties. To be able to research these relationships on a more advanced level, synchrotron methods are necessary. F
