Transformation of handicraft? A criticism of the relation between the model applied and the material chosen: remains of bone and antler handicraft in Medieval Lund (Scania). Its is suggested that the market economy was developed already in Viking Age.
Abstract Objective. Being able to predict the recurrence or progression of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer would facilitate effective planning of treatments and follow-up. Biomarkers are needed that can supply prognostic information beyond that provided by clinical and pathological parameters. Tissue microarray (TMA)-based analysis of Ta bladder tumours was used to investigate the prognostic va
The polyamines are essential for a variety of functions in the mammalian cell. Although their specific effects have not been fully elucidated, it is clear that the cellular polyamines have to be kept within certain levels for normal cell function. Polyamine homoeostasis in mammalian cells is achieved by a complex network of regulatory mechanisms affecting synthesis and degradation, as well as memb

Aim: This study evaluates if accelerometer measured physical activity is related to higher composite risk factor scores for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in children. Methods: Cross-sectional study that included 223 children aged 7.9-11.1 years (boys n=123, girls n=100). Daily physical activity was assessed by accelerometers for four days. Body fat was quantified by dual x-ray absorptiometry. Maxim
BACKGROUND: The role of specific adhesion molecules in cholestasis-induced leukocyte recruitment in the liver is not known. Therefore, the aim of our experimental study was to evaluate the role of lymphocyte function antigen-1 (LFA-1) in cholestatic liver injury. METHODS: C57BL/6 mice underwent bile duct ligation for 12 hours. Mice were pretreated with an anti-LFA-1 antibody or control antibody. S
Laser spectroscopic techniques constitute powerful tools for chemical sensing. Atoms and molecules can be identified and quantified by their specific spectral signatures and the strength of the signals. A wide variety of methods for establishing spectroscopic contact with the species exist: absorption, emission, fluorescence, Raman scattering, acousto-optic, and opto-galvanic phenomena can be empl
Market-driven software development companies experience challenges in requirements management that many traditional requirements engineering methods and techniques do not acknowledge. Large markets, limited contact with end users, and strong competition forces the market-driven software development company to constantly invent new, selling requirements, frequently release new versions with an acco
An ensemble of (J, K) -regular low-density parity-check (LDPC) convolutional codes is introduced and existence-type lower bounds on the minimum distance dL, of code segments of finite length L and on the free distance dfree are derived. For sufficiently large constraint lengths v, the distances are shown to grow linearly with v and the ratio dL/v approaches the ratio dfee/v for large L. Moreover,
The PHANToM är en uppfinning från MIT, Massachussets Institute of Technology, som möjliggör kommunikation mellan en människa och en dator med hjälp av känsel. The PHANToM är utvecklad som ett allmänt känselgränssnitt. På CERTEC har vi sett möjligheten att
Variable valve train systems have been brought into focus during recent years as a means to decrease fuel consumption in tomorrow’s combustion engines. In this paper an integrated approach, called simulation driven experiments, is utilised in order to aid the development of such highly dynamic systems. Through the use of systematic design methodology, a number of feasible concepts are developed. C
