SLF’s vårexkursion gick till trakterna av Kumla och Örebro med Mikael Hagström som arrangör. En god skara människor hade slutit upp och trotsade de initialt urusla vädret, men som tur var bättrade det sig. Med på exkursionen var Martin Westberg, Samantha Fernandez Brime, Ulf Arup, Emil Persson, Sten Svantesson, Stefan Ekman, Linnea Eide-Ekman, Måns Svensson, Lovisa Fogelberg, Ola Hammarström, JespSLF’s vårexkursion gick till trakterna av Kumla och Örebro med Mikael Hagström som arrangör.

Many engineers and scientists prevalently use computational tools in electromagnetics, which is also the predominant case for antennas. The ever-increasing number of applications and technologies that employ antennas create a constant demand to improve and extend existing tools and develop new ones. This dissertation investigates computational tools for antenna analysis and design. Antenna current

This review summarizes the involvement of vitamin K and the extrahepatic Gla proteins matrix Gla protein (MGP), Os-teocalcin (OC) and growth arrest-specific gene 6 protein (Gas6) in the development and progression of diabetes: in particular, complications related to angiopathy and inflammation. High vitamin K intake has been associated with a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes.

Rapporten presenterar en kartläggning av satsningar på elbuss i svenska och europeiska städer. Genomgången visar på stor bredd för elbussprojekten i Sverige och Europa. Det finns dock vissa gemensamma nämnare. Kommuner och regioner är den aktör som är mest aktiv och främst driver fram elbussprojekten. Ett stort antal busstillverkare är med och levererar elbussar, medan bussoperatörer inte är lika

Introduction: The synergism of infection with conventional cardiovascular risk factors in early life atherosclerosis is much debated. We hypothesized that coronary arterial injury correlates with infection recurrence and pathogen burden, and is further aggravated by hypercholesterolemia. Methods: Forty-two Go ̈ ttingen minipigs were assigned to repeated intra-tracheal inoculation of either saline,

Background: This prospective study focuses on factors associated with arterial damage in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Materials and Methods: Eighty children and adolescents with T1D (mean age 15, range: 8-20 yrs; mean diabetes duration 7, range: 0.5 to 19 years) were investigated twice, approximately 2 years apart, for carotid artery intima-media thickness (cIMT) and compliance (CAC), flow

rposes: Dietary supplementation with N-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (n-3 PUFAs) could have beneficial effects on cardiovascular system in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1). Methods: In a double-blind placebo controlled crossover study, 33 children with DM1 duration of more than one year were randomly and equally assigned to either n-3 PUFAs (2 gm/day, Nycoplus® Omega-3, 1000 mg) or plaPurposes: Dietary supplementation with N-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (n-3 PUFAs) could have beneficial effects on cardiovascular system in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1).

Purposes: It has earlier been suggested that dietary supplementation with N-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (n-3 PUFAs) could have beneficial effects on cardio- vascular system patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1). Whether the benefit also extends to coronary circulation has not been yet investigated.Methods: In a double-blind placebo controlled cross-over study, 33 children with DM1 duratio

Although thinking double thoughts and living dual lives are not specifically Iranian traits, Iranians have nevertheless become more susceptible to them for historical reasons, which may be traced back to when Persians became Muslims. The gradual normalization of double-thinking over the centuries has given rise to social and political patterns of behavior and institutional arrangements which oscilAlthough thinking double thoughts and living dual lives are not specifically Iranian traits, Iranians have, nevertheless, become more susceptible to them for historical reasons, which may be traced back to when Persians became Muslims. The gradual normalization of double‐thinking over the centuries has given rise to social and political patterns of behavior and institutional arrangements which osc

Since the 1979 Revolution, the clerical regime in Iran has been limiting the legal profession’s autonomy by preventing members of the Iranian Bar Association (IBA) from freely electing their Board of Directors and by establishing a new body of lawyers—legal advisors of the judiciary—to contest the IBA’s professional monopoly.

In this paper two novel autotuners are compared with two industrially available ones. The aim is to see if the research frontline can improve the industry standard of today. Experiments are made on three laboratory processes with different characteristics. Two lag-dominated processes of which one is a level control problem with fast dynamics, and one a temperature control problem with slow dynamic

Purpose: To compare tenderness and pain sensitivity in children (aged 7–17 years) with tension-type headache (TTH) and healthy controls using total tenderness score (TTS), pressure pain threshold (PPT), and pain perceived at suprapressure pain threshold (supraPPT). Patients and methods: Twenty-three children with frequent episodic TTH, 36 with chronic TTH, and 57 healthy controls were included. TT

Most cases of hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) are caused by infection with enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC). Genetic defects causing uncontrolled complement activation are associated with the more severe atypical HUS (aHUS). Non-EHEC infections can trigger the disease, however, complement defects predisposing to such infections have not yet been studied. We describe a 2-month-old patient

Development of molecular markers that help to identify high-risk individuals or diagnose indeterminate pulmonary nodules could have a major impact on lung cancer clinical management. In this study, we evaluated the diagnostic potential of a newly-developed ELISA that specifically detects complement C4d. We measured this marker in five independent cohorts of plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage sample
