Do some cases of anorexia nervosa reflect underlying autistic-like conditions?

In a sample of 51 teenagers with anorexia nervosa (AN)-which included 24 cases constituting the total population of AN cases born in 1970-several had shown social, communicative and behaviour patterns suggestive of autistic-like conditions as children, long before the onset of AN. One of the three boys in the AN group had Asperger syndrome. Three of the 48 girls had histories suggesting high funct

The Best Swimmers Drown – Mechanisms and Epistemic Risks: A constructive critique of Elster

According to Jon Elster, mechanisms are frequently occurring and easily recognizable causal patterns that are triggered under generally unknown conditions or with indeterminate consequences. In the absence of laws, moreover, mechanisms provide explanations. In this paper I argue that Elster’s view has difficulties with progressing knowledge. Normally, filling in the causal picture without revising

Energy Behaviour: Does generation matter?

Experiences early in life strongly shape values, attitudes and behaviour and serve as reference points ever after. Those who grew up in a society where resources are scarce may behave differently in an affluent society than those who got used to affluence even as children. This hypothesis was tested among 600 households in a major Swedish city who responded to questions about energy related behavi

Vätskeresuscitering och nutrition vid svår akut pankreatit - ju mer desto bättre?

Introduktion: Svår akut pankreatit (SAP) är ännu behäftad med hög morbiditet och mortalitet. Initial vätskeresuscitering är av stort värde; nivån liksom nutritionsform och kaloritillförsel är oklar. Retrospektivt studerades korrelation vätsketillförsel och nutrition mot utfall vid SAP. Metod: 179 patienter med SAP, definierat som förekomst av pankreasnekros, CRP > 150, lång vårdtid eller mortalit

Text-to-intonation in spontaneous Swedish

This paper deals with a number of aspects of intonation in spontaneous dialogues in a language technology perspective. The key topics to be addressed are: I) the analysis of global intonation and its interaction with textual structure, II) the implementation of global and textual aspects of discourse intonation in an analysis-by-synthesis environment. We present models for the analyses of intonati

Early structural and metamorphic evolution of the Scandinavian Caledonides: a study of the eclogite-bearing Seve Nappe Complex at the Arctic Circle, Sweden

In the Seve Nappe Complex of the Swedish Caledonides, coronitic diabases pass into eclogites; sometimes the transition occurs within one and the same boudin. Calculated pressure-temperature conditions for the eclogite facies stage are 20-27 kbar and 650-750°. Protolith corona-dolerite dykes share the T-MORB signature with the rift-dolerites of the Sarek and Särv Nappes, indicating similar origin.
