In a previous study from our laboratory, high tumor levels of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) have been associated with an adverse response to chemotherapy in metastatic breast cancer suggesting that TIMP-1, which is known to inhibit apoptosis, may be a new predictive marker in this disease. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between TIMP-1 and objective

I Louis Althussers klassiska text "Ideologi och ideologiska statsapparater" är det lagens direkta tilltal som får exemplifiera begreppet interpellation. Genom lagen (och dess representanter i vardagen) görs vi inte bara lika, till medborgare. Vi interpelleras även till en mängd andra, särskiljande identiteter. För att kunna åtnjuta lagens skydd måste våra konkreta livsöden kodas om till abstrakta

Reviews the video, This one moment: Skills for everyday mindfulness by M. M. Linehan (2003). Marsha Linehan is well known as the developer of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), a comprehensive treatment for borderline personality disorder (BPD). In "This One Moment," Linehan explains, with easy-to-follow and creative examples, how to be more fully in the present. She divides her instructions into

Overview over some recurrent themes in the poetry of Swedish writer Lars Gustafsson

DESIGN:: Prospective observational study. SETTING:: General intensive care unit at a university hospital. PATIENTS:: Comatose patients after cardiac arrest and treated with hypothermia. INTERVENTIONS:: Patients were sedated and

En undersökning av de språkligt motiverade bearbetningarna som gjorts av psalmer från 1695 års svenska psalmbok inför de tre nya psalmboksutgåvor som följt därefter. Undersökningen avser de omkring 100 1695-psalmer som finns med i alla dessa tre senare psalmböcker och sönderfaller i morfologiska, lexikala, syntaktiska och textuella bearbetningsinsatser.

The pathways of melt water from a subdrained agricultural basin in southern Finland were investigated using oxygen-18 as tracer and measuring subdrainage water and total basin runoff. The flow paths for the melt water to reach the subdrains were through cracks in the ploughed layer and through regular spaced vertical sand-gravel drains. As long as the top soil was frozen a major part of the water

Popular Abstract in Swedish Sedan människan lyckades skapa eld har förbränning utgjort den viktigaste energikällan i mänsklighetens långa historia, viket den ser ut att fortsätta vara det inom en överskådlig framtid. I dagsläget kommer mer än 90% av vår energi från förbränningsprocesser. Dock uppstår en rad problem kring förbränning, såsom föroreningar och möjligheten till använda sig av förnyelseNowadays, more than 90% of our energy comes from combustion processes. Hence, it is very important to perform combustion research to reduce emissions, improve efficiency, find clean and renewable fuels, strengthen safety, etc. The complexity of combustion processes asks for advanced diagnostic tools, among which the laser spectroscopy has been proved to be a powerful one. This thesis is about the

To evaluate if the creation of laser generated in situ fenestrations in polyester/Dacron stent grafts causes embolization.

Co-band multi-antenna implementation in realistic compact user terminals is of great interest to the wireless telecom industry for achieving high data rates. This licentiate thesis focuses on the mechanisms behind the implementation of multiple antennas for diversity and MIMO gains in everyday user terminals. Specifically, the effects of compactness, user interaction and propagation channel on the

OBJECTIVES: /st> To investigate the association between meniscal pathology and incident or enlarging bone marrow lesions (BML) in knee osteoarthritis. METHODS: /st> The authors studied subjects from the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study aged 50-79 years either with knee osteoarthritis or at high risk of the disease. Baseline and 30-months magnetic resonance images of knees (n=1344) were scored for
