The period after birth, when an infant is initially exposed to vast amounts of environmental and microbial antigens, sets the stage for proper immune system development ensuing lifelong immunity. Simultaneous to this first-time exposure, the nursing mother provides immune protection via antibodies in the breast milk. Secretory Immunoglobulin A, as provided by the mother or produced intrinsically i
I denna uppsats genomförs en kritisk granskning av kriminaliseringen av olaga förföljelse som infördes i brottsbalken år 2011. Granskningen görs främst i förhållande till den straffrättsliga preventionsteorin, men även gentemot de kriterier för kriminalisering som formulerat i doktrin och förarbeten. Straffrättssystemets syfte är främst att påverka medborgarna att avhålla sig från oönskade gärninIn this essay I conduct a critical review of the criminalisation of the crime ”illegal persecution” which was included in the Swedish penal code in 2011. The review is made first and foremost in the light of the criminal law theory of the criminal system as preemptive, bur also in the light of the criminalisation criteria which has been formulated both in the criminal doctrine, and in the legislat
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Havsnivåförändringar på södra Grönland. Den globala havsnivån har förändrats under den nuvarande mellanistiden främst på grund av fördelningen av vatten mellan hav och glaciärer. Den relativa havsnivån på södra Grönland påverkas också till stor del av jordskorpans anpassning till storleken på det grönländska istäcket. I denna studie presenteras en ny strandförUntil recently there have only been a few observations of relative sea-level change from the inner Bredefjord area in southern Greenland. Here a new sea-level curve is presented from the Tasiusaq area based on data mainly from a sediment sequence from a marine embayment. Sea-level changes can be recorded in sediments as changed chemical composition, physical properties and macrofossil content. Iso
I mitt arbete undersöker jag tre personers upplevelse av vad rytmik och musikterapi är. Jag bad dem också jämföra rytmik och musikterapi för att hitta likheter och skillnader. Jag har läst om Émile Jaques-Dalcroze, som anses vara rytmikens grundare. Jag drar också paralleller till Howard Gardner och John Dewey. För att få en djupare förståelse av vad musikterapi är har jag läst bland annat Even Ru
This essay focuses on the increasing problems for companies and right-holders with counterfeited and pirated goods in the European Union and the problems for right holders to enforce their IPR rights. Will IPRED1 make a difference and is there really a need for the new Directive of Enforcement 2004/48/EG, or do the sanctions according to the TRIPS Agreement suffice. Further, IPRED2 is a follow up
Art market is considered as a bench marker of artworks’ value. Value of the works determines not only the importance of the artist whether it is temporal or not, but also the art style, trend of the contemporary art scene. My thesis focuses such issue of Indonesian art scene from its cultural background. Indonesia is now one of the most demanded and growing art market within the contemporary scene
In Sweden 16 national goals have been elaborated to aim for an environmentally sustainable society. These goals should not only be implemented at a national level but also at the regional and community level. In Lund 13 documents have been developed, for 13 of the 16 national goals describing the environmental state in Lund associated to the goal in question. These documents will lead to local env
OBJECTIVE: To study the stent/vessel interaction and distensibility following the natural increase in vascular diameter using self-expanding and balloon-expanded stents. DESIGN: Open experimental study. SETTING: Animal laboratory, university hospital. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eight Palmaz (P) and eight Gianturco (G) stents were transluminally placed in the infrarenal aortas of 16 pigs. Pulsatile dia
We present a comparative analysis of the unfolding and inactivation of three cutinases in the presence of guanidine hydrochloride (GdnHCl) and bis(2-ethylhexyl) sodium sulfasuccinate (AOT). Previous investigations have focused on the cutinase from Fusarium solani pisi (FsC). In addition to FsC, the present study includes the cutinase from Humicola insolens (HiC) and a mutant variant of HiC (mu HiC
This analysis of DNA-ploidy heterogeneity in advanced gastric carcinomas is consistent with the hypothesis of the emergence of a single aneuploid cell clone as a crucial mechanism in the progression from early gastric carcinoma to advanced gastric cancer. The prognostic value of DNA-ploidy in gastric cancers has been a matter of controversy. Tumour DNA-ploidy heterogeneity, the presence within the
Background: Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) is an uncommon neoplasm with bland morphology and an indolent clinical course, although metastases may develop in approximately 5-10% of the cases. The diagnosis of LGFMS can be difficult to render from fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) alone because of morphological overlap with other spindle cell and myxoid lesions. Objective: To determine c
Objective: Following the Ross operation, pulmonary autografts tend to dilate over time. This study researches the fate of the pulmonary autograft - at 4.5 years following the modified Ross operation - with special reference to the impact of the modification on (a) pulmonary autograft dilatation, (b) the neo-aortic root geometry, (c) neo-aortic valve function and (d) the coronary artery reserve. Me
Abstract in UndeterminedA complex earth system model, simulating atmosphere and ocean dynamics, marine biogeochemistry, terrestrial vegetation and ice sheets, was used to study feedbacks between the terrestrial biosphere and climate with a set of long-term climate change ensemble experiments. CO(2) emissions were assigned according to historical data and the IPCC SRES scenarios B1, A1B and A2, fol
Structural compromise of the tumor suppressor gene, PTEN occurs in 10% of melanoma specimens and loss of PTEN expression through DNA methylation of the PTEN promoter region has also been reported in a number of other malignancies. However, the role of PTEN promoter methylation in melanoma is not well understood. We thus sought to elucidate the prevalence of PTEN promoter methylation in melanoma sp
OBJECTIVES: Assessment of inflammatory activity in interstitial lung disease of systemic sclerosis (SSc) is difficult. Nitric oxide (NO) has gained attention in the pathogenesis of SSc. The aim of the study was to investigate alveolar NO concentration (CA(NO)) in SSc patients with short disease duration and to relate CA(NO) to radiologic findings. METHODS: In a prospective study, 34 consecutive pa
Background. The recommended treatment for chronic musculoskeletal pain is multidisciplinary, with a cognitive approach. The aim of this study was to investigate health-related quality of life (HRQoL) outcome after a multidisciplinary treatment with a cognitive approach. Methods. A total of 131 subjects who participated in a multidisciplinary rehabilitation programme (2005-2008) were studied at bas
PURPOSE: To examine health care use and health care costs among partners of persons with cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Partners of patients with colon, rectal, lung, breast, and prostate cancer (N = 11,076) were identified via linked data from the Tumor Registry of Southern Sweden and Census Registry of Sweden. Health care use, total costs of health care, and diagnosis of the partner were studied
