The model presented in this paper has been used for predicting the slab core temperature in several applications at The Danish Steel Works Ltd. The model has the advantages that it is simple and only contains a minimum of physical parameters, which makes it easy use and adapt to slab temperature measurements. The model has been verified using 11 data sets covering three different slab thicknesses
The association between baseline levels of eleven bone turnover markers and 5-year rate of bone density change was prospectively studied in a population-based sample of 601 75-year-old women. Several bone formation and resorption markers as well as urinary osteocalcin were modestly correlated to rate of bone density change. Introduction Prediction of bone loss by bone turnover markers (BTMs) has b
This thesis is focused on natural killer (NK) T cells. NKT cells recognize lipids and glycolipids, rather than peptides, in the contents of the antigen presenting molecule CD1d. NKT cells have a surface phenotype reminiscent of memory cells, and have been shown to rapidly produce large amounts of cytokines, such as IL-4 and IFN-gamma, upon activation. Because of their rapid response to activation,
Applications of nanoparticles are of rising interest in separation science, due to their favorable surface-to-volume ratio as well as their applicability in miniaturization. A stationary phase with large surface area in combination with an electroosmotic flow-driven system has great potential in a highly efficient separation system. This review covers the use of various nanoparticles as stationary
Objective: To examine the test-retest repeatability of pressure pain thresholds in the shoulder muscles of healthy women. Design: Four experimental sessions (days 1, 3, 28, 30), each including 4 consecutive pressure pain threshold measurements at 10-minute intervals. Subjects: Twenty-four healthy female volunteers, mean age 42 years. Methods: Two examiners measured pressure pain thresholds bilater
There is a revived clinical interest in hypothermia as a neuroprotective intervention in brain ischemia. This originates from the experimental finding that hypothermia of only 3 degrees C-4 degrees C below normal body temperature completely abolishes neuronal damage from an ischemic insult that is lethal in normothermia. The idea that hypothermia protects cells from ischemic damage mainly by lower
Microalbuminuria is thought to be an important prognostic factor in diabetes mellitus. To study the influence of changes in blood pressure on the development of microalbuminuria during exercise, two exercise tests were carried out. A total of 32 insulin dependent diabetic men whose age at onset was less than 30 years, mean duration of diabetes 14 years (range 7 to 21) and mean age 29 years (range

The aim of this study was to determine the influence of alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG) on volumetric bone density, geometrical and mechanical properties of femur and tibia in farm turkeys. All animals were kept under standard rearing conditions with constant access to water and appropriate feed, supplied in accordance with the stage of production cycle. Bone samples were collected 14 weeks after beginn
Purpose To describe corneal surface changes in keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS). Methods In all 23 patients with KCS were examined with the slit lamp and photographed by non-contact photomicrography. Results Without staining, grey surface cells and small epithelial cysts were visible. Application of fluorescein sodium resulted in two types of micropunctuate (15-30 mum) staining, a nonfluorescent (

Abstract in German Durch ihren übergreifenden Zeitrahmen verweilt die Autorin nicht bei einer spezifischen historischen Situation, sondern bettet die Sibelius-Rezeption in einen größeren Kontext ein. Der Titel schränkt daher den Blickwinkel unnötig ein, da sich fast ¼ der Arbeit nicht mit der NS-Zeit beschäftigt, sondern als notwendiges Korrelat zur NS-Rezeption auch die Nachkriegszeit bis in die
