Tendon injuries can occur in athletes and workers whose tasks involve repetitive, high-force hand activities, but the early pathophysiologic processes of tendinopathy are not well known. The purpose of this animal study was to evaluate the effects of cyclical tendon loading on the densities of cells producing growth factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), its receptor, vascular
If anyone begins to think about the term ultrasound, the first thing that comes to the mind is the fact that it is used in animal communications (e.g., bat navigation and dog whistles). Also, one may start to think that this term is familiar in daily life and has been used many times in medicine applications for foetal imaging, (SONAR). However, many questions come to the mind, such as, what is ha
Climbing fiber discharges within the rat cerebellar cortex have been shown to display synchrony, especially for climbing fibers terminating in the same parasagittal bands. In addition, Purkinje cells which have the smallest rostrocaudal separation also seem to have the highest degree of synchrony. But this has so far only been investigated for distances down to 250 mum. In the present study, we wa
Nations around the world are feverishly developing new standards relating to Building Information Modelling (BIM) in the construction industry which may enable teams to leverage greater value from BIM implementation and model authorship efforts. This study reflects on ongoing standardisation initiatives in Sweden and considers where current research efforts fit in. There is limited research presen
Coeliac disease (CD) is becoming a model for understanding the pathogenesis of autoimmune disorders. In CD, antibodies against transglutaminase 2 (TG2) and specific residues of gliadins have been identified. A similar situation is seen in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with both anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) and auto-antibodies against the citrullinating enzyme, peptidylarginine deiminas
OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of using a mitt during shortened constraint-induced movement therapy for patients in the subacute phase after stroke. SUBJECTS: Twenty-four patients with stroke (mean age 57.6 (standard deviation (SD) 8.5) years; average 7 weeks post-stroke) with mild to moderate impaired hand function. METHODS: The patients were randomized to mitt use or no mitt use on the less af
This article looks at three Swedish books of poetry from this century: Johan Jönson’s Efter arbetsschema (2008), UKON’s Brukaren (2011) and Lars Mikael Raattamaa’s Kommunismen (2015). What these books share is a combination of an explicit critique of life in the late capitalist (Scandinavian) welfare state and an experimental, perhaps post-poetic, practice based on seriality and quotation. Another
ForskningensDag2010_low.pdf DEPRESSION OCH BIPOLÄR SJUKDOM I LUNDBYSTUDIEN 1947–1997 Depression, bipolär sjukdom och affektiv psykos Depression karaktäriseras av ett sänkt stämningsläge, skuldkänslor, låg själv- känsla, hopplöshet, förlust av intresse och glädje, låg energitillgång och initia- tivbrist. Det finns ofta dygnsvariation av besvären, sömnproblem och aptitpåver- kan. Vid psykotisk depre

In this thesis I analyze the Star Wars saga and its description of the rise of dictators and compare them with common criticism of the US Congress and President. Central to the Star Wars Saga is the tale of how democratic societies transition into military dictatorships. As creator George Lucas has mentioned in interviews he sees democracies as weak during political upheaval, democratically electe
Supplemental Instruction (SI) is today a well-known academic assistance program that provides help for students in "difficult" courses. SI has repeatedly been shown to decrease the percentage of failures in the course as well as increasing course grades for students who attended SI sessions. Although SI is open for all students, its main objective is to come to terms with students' high failure ra
We show that the asymptotic behavior of the partial sums of a sequence of positive numbers determine the local behavior of the Hilbert space of Dirichlet series defined using these as weights. This extends results recently obtained describing the local behavior of Dirichlet series with square summable coefficients in terms of local integrability, boundary behavior, Carleson measures and interpolat
In this chapter, the author analyses a new Swedish curriculum for schools that was presented in 2011 and came into effect the same year. Basically the focus in the subject of music is on playing music, creating music, and listening to music. But key citations within the subject of music show a return to some ideas from the beginning of the 20th century regarding nationalism, a Nordic ethnocentric
Provocation is an integral part of Socrates’ philosophical method. Does provocation have a similar methodological function in art? My tentative answer is no. In the Socratic method, provocation is used both on an individual level to force a person to think better (preferably in ethical matters) and on a general level in order to keep a society awake. A society should never rest but “be stirred int
Over the last few years we have seen a rapidly increasing interest in the functions of the inhibitory interneurons of the cerebellar cortex. However, we still have very limited knowledge about their physiological properties in vivo. The present study provides the first description of their spontaneous firing properties and their responses to synaptic inputs under non-anesthetized conditions in the
The fact that 10% of female mice enter oestrus and allow mating in the middle of the day is an old observation that has been more or less forgotten. We here show that this old knowledge can be used to improve the efficacy of both embryo transfer and insemination protocols. The present technical paper shows that rapid re-arrangements of mating cages, to achieve pseudo-pregnant recipients in the mid
The chemokine CCL25 is selectively and constitutively expressed in the small intestinal epithelium and plays an important role in mediating lymphocyte recruitment to this site. In this study, we demonstrate that CCL25 expression in murine small intestinal epithelial cells is independent of signaling through the lymphotoxin 0 receptor and is not enhanced by inflammatory stimuli, pathways involved i
