Goran Sonnevi's poetry represents a vast network of associations to other texts and other works of art. Consequently, this poetry often initiates a conversation on the present with partners from different times, Places and arts. "Burge, Oja; 1989" is an interesting example of such an intermedial conversation, set in the middle of a dramatic period of our time, the year 1989. The central theme is t

A combined solid-phase extraction (SPE)-supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) procedure was developed for the analysis of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in wastewater. The importance of cleaning and drying the filters and SPE-disks prior to eluting PCBs with SFE was studied, leading to improved recoveries for all congeners investigated. The average PCB recovery of the final procedure, at a concen

The adsorption of the dicarboxylates o-phthalate, maleate, fumarate, malonate, and oxalate (representing ligands with the general composition -O2C-C-n-CO2; n = 0, 1, or 2) on gibbsite were studied by means of quantitative batch adsorption experiments and attenuated total reflectance Fourier. transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy. The interpretations of ATR-FTIR spectra were aided by compariso

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen kretsar kring centralbankens möjligheter att kontrollera inflationstakten. Under senare tid har mycket forskning ägnats åt att analysera och utvärdera de institutionella förutsättningarna för centralbanker, såväl avseende graden av oberoende som vilka mål penningpolitiken bör inriktas mot; exempelvis direkta inflationsmål versus användandet av indirekta målAfter an introductory chapter, the hypothesis is made in chapter two: that central bank power to control the rate of inflation rests on the bank’s ability to achieve a role as a focal point for inflation. Inflation is a measure of changes in the general price level, the price level is an index of individual prices, and to predict future price levels is thus to predict future prices on individual i

In his 1958 thesis Stability and Error Bounds, Germund Dahlquist introduced the logarithmic norm in order to derive error bounds in initial value problems, using differential inequalities that distinguished between forward and reverse time integration. Originally defined for matrices, the logarithmic norm can be extended to bounded linear operators, but the extensions to nonlinear maps and unbound

Objective: The prognostic influence of neuroendocrine (NE) differentiation in prostate cancer patients is not yet properly established. In a series of primary hormone-naive prostate cancers from a patient population that underwent radical prostatectomy, we wanted to determine the relationship between NE phenotype expression and Gleason sum, disease stage, and serum PSA concentration. Methods: Ch

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen består av en introduktion och följande artiklar: Artikel I: Using resultants for SAGBI basis verification in the univariate polynomial ring. Författare: Anna Torstensson, Victor Ufnarovski och Hans Öfverbeck. Sammanfattning: En resultant-identitet för polynom i en variabel bevisas och används för att karakterisera SAGBI-baser för underalgebror genereradeThe thesis consists of an introduction and the following four papers: Paper I: Using resultants for SAGBI basis verification in the univariate polynomial ring. Authors: Anna Torstensson, Victor Ufnarovski and Hans Öfverbeck. Abstract: A resultant-type identity for univariate polynomials is proved and used to characterise SAGBI bases of subalgebras generated by two polynomials. A new equivalent

The objective of this follow-up study was to determine the long-term outcome of strictly classified cases of neuroborreliosis treated with antibiotics. A 1-y prospective population-based survey of Lyme borreliosis was conducted in southern Sweden between 1992 and 1993. A total of 349 identified cases with suspected neuroborreliosis were followed up 5 y later. Medical records were reviewed and all

Infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, and up-regulation of telomerase in esophageal adenocarcinoma. We immortalized normal esophageal epithelial cells by over-expression of the HPV16 E6/E7 and human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) genes. HPV16 E6/E7-induced immortalization was accompanied by reduc

OBJECTIVES: Infectious agents like parvovirus have been implicated as exogenous factors that could trigger onset of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). A number of case reports describing a SLE-like presentation of acute human parvovirus B19 infection have been published, but no systematic investigation of the actual seroprevalence in epidemiologically defined SLE populations has previously been r
