Livsmedelsprotesterna i Malmö 1799

This is at study of a food riot that took place in the southern Swedish city of Malmö in 1799. It demonstrates that E P Thompon’s influential concept of a “moral economy” still is a quite productive analytical tool. Focusing on the relation between the crowd and the authorities, the essay demonstrates that a moral economy was partly shared by the two groups, but clashed with the new ideology of fr

Search for WZ resonances in the fully leptonic channel using pp collisions at root s=8 TeV with the ATLAS detector

A search for resonant WZ production in the l nu l'l' (l, l' = e, mu) decay channel using 20.3 fb(-1) of root s = 8 TeV pp collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment at LHC is presented. No significant deviation from the Standard Model prediction is observed and upper limits on the production cross sections of WZ resonances from an extended gauge model W' and from a simplified model of heavy

Pancreatic cancer – Influence of Tumour Microenvironment

Popular Abstract in Swedish Pankreascancer (cancer i bukspottkörteln) utgör fjärde orsak död i cancer. Det är den cancerform som har den dystraste prognosen av alla, med en 5-års överlevnad mindre än 6%. Sjukdomsrelaterade symptom uppträder ofta sent i förloppet och det saknas metoder för tidig diagnos varför de flesta av patienterna upptäckts i sent skede. Endast cirka 20 procent av patienterna kPancreatic cancer (PC) is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths, with a 5-year survival less than 6%. It does not show any symptoms in its early stages, hence most (>85%) of the patients are diagnosed at late stage. At the time of diagnosis, metastases are frequently observed which make most patients unsuitable for curative surgical treatment and chemotherapy remains the only choice fo

Gluten Biopolymer and Nanoclay-Derived Structures in Wheat Gluten-Urea-Clay Composites: Relation to Barrier and Mechanical Properties

Here, we investigated the structure of natural montmorillonite (MMT) and modified Cloisite C15A (MMT pre-intercalated with a dimethyl-dehydrogenated tallow quaternary ammonium surfactant) nanoclays in the wheat gluten-urea matrix in order to obtain a nanocomposite with improved barrier and mechanical properties. Small-angle X-ray scattering indicated that the characteristic hexagonal closed packed

Seizure disorders in systemic lupus erythematosus results from an international, prospective, inception cohort study

Objective The aim of this study was to describe the frequency, attribution, outcome and predictors of seizures in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods The Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics, or SLICC, performed a prospective inception cohort study. Demographic variables, global SLE disease activity (SLE Disease Activity Index 2000), cumulative organ damage (SLICC/American Co

Information System Evaluation through an Emergence Lens

The development and expansion of evaluation theory and practice is at the core of several different disciplines. There exist different traditional Information System (IS) evaluation approaches, like experimental, pragmatic, constructivist, pluralist and realist IS evaluation. IS evaluation approaches are influenced by the way they address to technology. Recently actor network theory (ANT) and soci

Assessment of myocardial viability using magnetic resonance imaging

Popular Abstract in Swedish När det blir stopp i ett av hjärtats kranskärl blockeras blodflödet till hjärtat, vilket kan orsaka blodbrist i en del av hjärtmuskeln. Detta kan i sin tur leda till hjärtinfarkt, vilket tar död på hjärtmuskelceller och skadar hjärtat. Vid den efterföljande behandlingen av hjärtinfarkt kan små proppar i kranskärlen, så kallade mikroembolier, ytterligare förvärra skadan Myocardial infarction (MI) following an acute coronary occlusion is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. During revascularization, microemboli may complicate treatment and affect cardiac function. The long-term effects of microembolization are not fully elucidated. Following an MI it is important to accurately determine the size of the infarction, as it can be used for guidance in terms of

Medansvar och missnöje

Utifrån aktuell forskning kring publik och reception, och mot bakgrund av en förskjutning inom samtidens scenkonst mot åskådarnas delaktighet och medansvar söker texten uppvärdera publiken och de många aspekter av teaterhändelsen som receptionsperspektivet aktualiserar, och bidra till en omdefiniering av teaterns problem och dess uppdrag visavi publiken.

Device discovery for the PalCom pervasive middleware with eliminated cross-networks periodic heart-beat messages

Service discovery is central in pervasive middleware systems, built on top of the communication substrate using the more fundamental mechanisms for device discovery. In mobile pervasive systems devices come and go, and switch network frequently, demanding support for device discovery across heterogeneous networks. We present the design of a device discovery mechanism for the PalCom middleware that

Methods to explore design space for MPEG RVC codec specifications

Abstract in UndeterminedThe recent MPEG Reconfigurable Media Coding (RMC) standard aims at defining media processing specifications (e.g. video codecs) in a form that abstracts from the implementation platform, but at the same time is an appropriate starting point for implementation on specific targets. To this end, the RMC framework has standardized both an asynchronous dataflow model of computat

Suppression of renal cell carcinoma growth by inhibition of Notch signaling in vitro and in vivo

Loss of the tumor suppressor gene von Hippel–Lindau (VHL) plays a key role in the oncogenesis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC). The loss leads to stabilization of the HIF transcription complex, which induces angiogenic and mitogenic pathways essential for tumor formation. Nonetheless, additional oncogenic events have been postulated to be required for the formation of CCRCC tumors. Here,

Manual lymphatic drainage for lymphedema following breast cancer treatment

Background More than one in five patients who undergo treatment for breast cancer will develop breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL). BCRL can occur as a result of breast cancer surgery and/or radiation therapy. BCRL can negatively impact comfort, function, and quality of life (QoL). Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD), a type of hands-on therapy, is frequently used for BCRL and often as part of com

A Survey on Vehicle-to-Vehicle Propagation Channels

Traffic telematics applications are currently under intense research and development for making transportation safer, more efficient, and more environmentally friendly. Reliable traffic telematics applications and services require vehicle-to-vehicle wireless communications that can provide robust connectivity, typically at data rates between 1 and 10 Mb/s. The development of such VTV communication
