Kyrkan vid Värends ände: En studie av Åseda kyrkas medeltida historia

Engdahl, E. 2023. The church at the end of Värend: A study of Åseda church’s medieval history. Within the forests of Swedish Småland, on the edge of Kronobergs county, lies the village of Åseda. This location has been sparsely studied by various scholars. The parish church in Åseda was subjected to a restoration during 1936-37, led by architect Paul Boberg. This restoration resulted in a lot of ar

An efficient and convergent route towards water-soluble, chiral and amphiphilic macrocycles

A practical procedure for the synthesis of water-soluble, chiral and amphiphilic macrocyclic molecules is described. Acylation of p-xylylene diamine with Fmoc-protected glycine and aspartic acid, followed by removal of the Fmoc moiety afforded amino acid:p-xylene conjugates as free diamines. These diamines were converted to symmetrical and unsymmetrical macrocycles via stepwise urea formation u

The p-methoxybenzyl ether as an in situ-removable carbohydrate-protecting group : A simple one-pot synthesis of the globotetraose tetrasaccharide

A one-pot synthesis of the globotetraose tetrasaccharide is reported. The synthetic method relies on the use of a p-methoxybenzyl ether as an in situ-removable protecting group. N-Iodosuccinimide/trifluoromethanesulfonic acid-promoted glycosylation of 2-bromoethyl-2,3,6-tri-O-benzoyl-4-O-(2,3,6-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-galactopyranosyl)-β-D-glucopyranoside 5 at −45 °C with phenyl 2,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-3-O-(

Perioperative water and electrolyte balance and water homeostasis regulation in children with acute surgery

Background: Hospital-acquired hyponatremia remains a feared event in patients receiving hypotonic fluid therapy. Our objectives were to assess post-operative plasma-sodium concentration and to provide a physiological explanation for plasma-sodium levels over time in children with acute appendicitis. Methods: Thirteen normonatremic (plasma-sodium ≥135 mmol/L) children (8 males), median age 12.3 (IQ

M3VSNET: Unsupervised Multi-Metric Multi-View Stereo Network

The present Multi-view stereo (MVS) methods with supervised learning-based networks have an impressive performance comparing with traditional MVS methods. However, the ground-truth depth maps for training are hard to be obtained and are within limited kinds of scenarios. In this paper, we propose a novel unsupervised multi-metric MVS network, named M 3 VSNet, for dense point cloud reconstruction w

Incidence and concomitant chondral injuries in a consecutive cohort of primary traumatic patellar dislocations examined with sub-acute MRI

Purpose: To present age- and sex-specific cumulative annual incidences of primary traumatic lateral patellar dislocation (LPD) and to detail patient characteristics and concomitant chondral injuries including osteochondral fractures, as visualized on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), in a large consecutive cohort of knee-injured individuals. Methods: Data on primary traumatic lateral patellar disl

Inter-departmental variation in surgical treatment of proximal femoral fractures : A nationwide observational cohort study

Background and purpose Hip fractures should be treated based on the best available evidence and cost-effectively to optimize the outcome for this large group of frail patients. This study examined nationwide variation in surgical methods used for hip fractures. Methods In this cohort study 46,243 patients ≥65 years with a trochanteric hip fracture (THF) or a femoral neck fracture (FNF) registered

Accumulation of antimony and lead in leaves and needles of trees : The role of traffic emissions

Antimony (Sb) is a toxic metalloid, which has been increasingly used in the brake lining of vehicles, and increased concentrations have been found in soils near abundant traffic. However, since very few investigations of Sb accumulation in urban vegetation have been undertaken there exists a knowledge gap. We studied the concentrations of Sb in leaves and needles of trees in the Gothenburg City ar

Optimising binder blends for shallow stabilisation of fine-grained soils

Soil stabilisation techniques often use cement or lime asstabilising agents. Lately there has been an increase inusing blended binders. Mixing cement with slag or cementwith ¯y ash has gained in popularity. The prime purposeof blending binders is to reduce the costs. Other aims areto use waste material or to produce a new binder withbetter properties. Blending binders does not automaticallyresult

Effects of Lipase Immobilization Conditions and Support Materials for the Production of Structured Triacylglycerols

Structured triacylglycerols (STAG) with desired properties can be synthesized by transesterification using immobilized lipases. Herein, the effect of immobilization conditions and support material on the immobilization yield, specific activity and regioselectivity of lipases from Rhizomucor miehei (RML) and Rhizopus oryzae (ROL) in the production of STAG, are evaluated. Four different support mate

Reduced volume of diabetic pancreatic islets in rodents detected by synchrotron X-ray phase-contrast microtomography and deep learning network

The pancreatic islet is a highly structured micro-organ that produces insulin in response to rising blood glucose. Here we develop a label-free and automatic imaging approach to visualize the islets in situ in diabetic rodents by the synchrotron radiation X-ray phase-contrast microtomography (SRμCT) at the ID17 station of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility. The large-size images (3.2 mm ×

Mass determination of K2-19b and K2-19c from radial velocities and transit timing variations

We present radial velocity follow-up observations of K2-19, a compact planetary system hosting three planets, of which the two larger ones, K2-19b and K2-19c, are close to the 3:2 mean motion resonance. An analysis considering only the radial velocity measurements detects K2-19b, the larger and more massive planet in the system, with a mass of 54.8 ± 7.5M⊕ and provides a marginal detection of K2-1

K2-60b and K2-107b. A Sub-Jovian and a Jovian Planet from the K2 Mission

We report the characterization and independent detection of K2-60b, as well as the detection and characterization of K2-107b, two transiting hot gaseous planets from the K2 space mission. We confirm the planetary nature of the two systems and determine their fundamental parameters combining the K2 time-series data with FIES@NOT and HARPS-N@TNG spectroscopic observations. K2-60b has a radius of 0.6

Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission : XXV. CoRoT-27b: A massive and dense planet on a short-period orbit

Aims. We report the discovery of a massive and dense transiting planet CoRoT-27b on a 3.58-day orbit around a 4.2 Gyr-old G2 star. The planet candidate was identified from the CoRoT photometry, and was confirmed as a planet with ground-based spectroscopy. Methods. The confirmation of the planet candidate is based on radial velocity observations combined with imaging to rule out blends. The charact

Proteogenomics decodes the evolution of human ipsilateral breast cancer

Ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR) is a clinically important event, where an isolated in-breast recurrence is a potentially curable event but associated with an increased risk of distant metastasis and breast cancer death. It remains unclear if IBTRs are associated with molecular changes that can be explored as a resource for precision medicine strategies. Here, we employed proteogenomics

Vascular ageing in relation to chronological and self‑perceived age: A Swedish population‑based study

Background: Chronological age is a key clinical determinant ofaortic stiffness. Self-perceived age (SPA) is a strong predictor ofwell-being and long-term health. We aimed to investigate theassociation between SPA, chronological age, and aortic stiffness(vascular ageing) in the general population.Methods: Cross-sectional analysis of a population-based study,Malmö Offspring Study (n=3563).
