This article discusses the Marxist heritage in queer theory and argues for a historical materialist understanding of queer theory.

Households play a crucial role in the management of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). As waste generators, their decisions at the point of disposal hold a key to a success of WEEE collection. This article presents main findings from a national survey in Thailand about the reported disposal behaviors in the past and the stated disposal preferences in the future. The survey covered t

The problem of controlling a system with constant but unknown parameters is considered. The analysis is restricted to discrete time single-input single-output systems. An algorithm obtained by combining a least squares estimator with a minimum variance regulator computed from the estimated model is analysed. The main results are two theorems which characterize the closed loop system obtained under

We compared manual lymph drainage (MLD) with sequential pneumatic compression (SPC) for treatment of unilateral arm lymphedema in 28 women previously treated for breast cancer. After 2 weeks of therapy with a standard compression sleeve (Part I) with maintenance of a steady arm volume, each patient was randomly assigned to either one of two treatment regimens (Part II). MLD was performed according

The cholinergic hypothesis of geriatric memory dysfunction suggests that the learning and memory deficits representing the cardinal symptoms of dementia in the aged and in patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease may be attributable to a decline in the function of the cholinergic projection systems of the basal forebrain. Although many studies have addressed the issue of a causal relationship b

It is shown that, for short and moderate relative tailbiting lengths and high signal-to-noise ratios, systematic feedback encoders have better bit error performance than nonsystematic feedforward encoders. Conditions for when tailbiting will fail are given and it is described how the encoder starting state can be obtained for feedback encoders in both controller and observer canonical form

Reconstruction of movement control properties of the brain could result in many potential advantages for application in robotics. However, a hampering factor so far has been the lack of knowledge of the structure and function of brain circuitry in vivo during movement control. Much more detailed information has recently become available for the area of the cerebellum that controls arm-hand movemen

Popular Abstract in Swedish Salmonella infektion drabbar ca 16 miljoner människor i världen per år. Salmonella sprids genom mat och vatten och fšrekommer främst i länder där god hygien är ett problem. Beroende på vilken typ av Salmonella som man infekteras av, kan man drabbas av magsjuka eller en allvarlig systemisk infektion som i värsta fall kan leda till döden (tyfoid feber). Salmonella tar sigThe immune system has several strategies to combat infections. The present study investigates various aspects of the interaction between Gram negative bacteria, particularly Salmonella, and antigen presenting cells (APC). Salmonella is an intracellular bacterium infecting mice and man. Salmonella typhimurium infection in mice is a frequently used model for studying systemic Salmonella infection. O
