Granath A, Norrby-Teglund A, Uddman R, Cardell L-O. Reduced iNOS expression in adenoids from children with otitis media with effusion. Pediatr Allergy Immunol 2010: 21: 1151-1156. © 2010 John Wiley & Sons A/S Nitric oxide (NO) is a key mediator in the local immune response of human airways. Inducible NO-synthases (iNOS), and endothelial NO-synthases (eNOS) are two enzymes known to regulate its
Due to phonemic restoration, listeners can reliably perceive words when a phoneme is replaced with noise. The cost associated with this process was investigated along with the effect of lexical uniqueness on phonemic restoration, using data from a lexical decision experiment where noise replaced phonemes that were either uniqueness points (the phoneme at which a word deviates from all nonrelated w
Hospitalization involves that parents are in an unfamiliar environment and their parental role changes. The purpose of this study was to study parental needs during the course of events when their child is hospitalized. Thirty-five parents of 24 children (aged 5 months to 18 years) were followed by observers during their child's hospitalization at a pediatric department in Sweden. Field notes were
This paper examines tongue movements in stop and fricative consonants where the duration of the oral closure/constriction for the consonant is varied for linguistic purposes. Native speakers of Japanese served as subjects. The linguistic material consisted of Japanese word pairs that only differed in the duration of the lingual consonant, which was either long or short. Recordings were made of ton
Through history and in most cultures differences between men and women have been observed and expressed in various ways. Also in our society differences between men and women are evident and this becomes particularly clear in the context of risk perception. This chapter will present three models that are found in the research literature that aim at explaining these differences. The first model foc
Multiconfigurational second order perturbation theory was employed in order to describe the ground and excited states of negatively charged fullerenes C60 and fullerene dimers C120. The calculations were performed for all possible spin states. The obtained results can be used to understand the electronic structure of fullerides.
In an increasingly connected world where all manner of devices can communicate over the Internet, conventional methods for developing GUIs (Graphical User Interfaces) are insufficient. For systems of such devices, it must be possible to develop the system itself independently from its GUI(s). In this paper, we present an approach for developing GUIs towards already deployed, or "live", service-bas
The paper looks at the development philosophy behind the establishment of the Lukzum Samdrupling, the first Tibetan refugee settlement in India and how it was received by the refugees. After reviewing Chinese development concepts in the 1950’s and 1960’s with an emphasis on Tibet, the paper explores the central concepts of Indian development philosophy at that time, such as cooperative, scientific
