The effect of intraileally infused short chain fatty acids (SCFA) and saline as control on the exocrine pancreatic secretions during the interdigestive phase was studied using three 8-weeks-old piglets. Pigs were surgically fitted with a pancreatic duct catheter, re-entrant duodenal T-cannula for collection and subsequent return of pancreatic juice, and with an infusion T-cannula at the distal ile
To investigate subjective and objective changes in function in subjects with Parkinson's disease (PD) home visits with interviews were performed with a 1-year interval. Depressive symptoms were rated with the Geriatric Depression Scale, subjective health with the generic SF-36 scale and the disease-specific PDQ-8 scale; objective changes were assessed according to the Hoehn and Yahr scale; insomni

The sensitivity of the rat submaxillary gland was examined 3-4 weeks after either parasympathetic decentralization or sympathetic decentralization or denervation. The threshold doses for secretion of saliva of parasympathomimetic (methacholine) and sympathomimetic (noradrenaline, adrenaline, phenylephrine and isoprenaline) drugs were estimated and the amount of saliva secreted in response to supra
Over the last three and half decades Sweden have provided development aid to Ethiopia. This aid was used to expand Ethiopia's educutional system, public health service and agricultural production. This empiricaI study reveals Ethiopia's response to Swedish aid and its influence. Providing and receiving aid explains the existence of disparity among sovereign states. In spite of the demonstrative i
Popular Abstract in Swedish Under 1990-talet har från olika håll ställts krav på ett ökat elevinflytande över innehåll och arbetsformer i den allmänna skolan. Dessa krav har dels kommit från eleverna själva, dels kommit till uttryck i olika styrdokument. Att så har varit fallet ter sig ganska naturligt, eftersom den tidsanda i vilken vi lever är präglad av individualism. Ett antagande, som stöds aAbstract In the Swedish compulsory school system there is a trend towards increased student influence. School ideologists have for at least ten years strongly emphasised this issue. This tendency is in line with a more general direction in Western societies, which in many aspects has moved toward individualisation. Based on these developments, the main reason for undertaking the presents study was
10 patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who previously had responded temporarily to 9 months interferon alpha-2b treatment with normalization of ALT levels during treatment but later relapse were given a second 6-month treatment course. All patients were positive for anti-HCV by a second generation ELISA confirmed by second generation RIBA and positive for HCV RNA in serum befor
Popular Abstract in Swedish Parkinsons sjukdom är den näst mest vanliga neurodegenerativa sjukdomen och den drabbar 2% av befolkningen över 65 år. Sjukdomen kännetecknas av en gradvis ökad förlust av dopaminproducerande nervceller. Symtomen tilltar successivt och leder framförallt till allvarliga fördröjningar i rörelsemönstret. Dessvärre, när de första symptomen väl upptäcks, så har redan 50% av Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease and affects 2% of the population over 65 years of age. The disease is characterized by the progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons. Over time, symptoms increase and, in particular, lead to a dramatic slowness of movements. Unfortunately, when the fi rst symptoms are discovered, more than 50% of the dopaminergic neurons a
In this study an economic analysis of the purification of integrated solid waste treatment facility leachates through a willow-coppice (Salix) vegetation filter in southern Sweden was carried out. Calculations were based on the use of two computer models that were initially used in estimating a pump-and-pipe irrigation system for a 36-ha willow-coppice plantation to purify an average annual quanti
The three-dimensional structure of Bruton's agammaloglobulinemia tyrosine kinase (Btk) SH2 domain was modeled based on v-Src. Btk SH2 is presumably very related to the other SH2 structures consisting of two beta-sheets surrounded by two alpha-helices, with a well conserved hydrophobic core and phoshotyrosyl peptide binding site. The model was used to predict the recognition sequence of the target
The beta-cell loss seen in diabetes mellitus could be monitored clinically by positron emission tomography (PET) if imaging agents were sufficiently specific for beta-cells to overcome the high ratio of non-beta-cell to beta-cell tissue in pancreas. In this report, we present a screening assay for identifying beta-cell-specific compounds that is based on the relative accumulation and retention by
Low-temperature absorption and fluorescence spectra of fully active cores and membrane-bound PS II preparations are compared. Detailed temperature dependence of fluorescence spectra between 5 and 70 K are presented as well as 1.7-K fluorescence line-narrowed (FLN) spectra of cores, confirming that PS II emission is composite. Spectra are compared to those reported for LHCII, CP43, CP47 and D1/D2/c
