Popular Abstract in Swedish Catecholaminerna dopamin, noradrenalin och adrenalin är en grupp transmittorsubstanser som är involverade i olika funktioner i det centrala nervsystemet. De olika catecholaminerna bildas med hjälp av specifika enzymer. Tyrosin hydroxylas (TH) omvandlar L-DOPA till dopamin (DA), som i sin tur omvandlas av enzymet dopamin ß-hydroxylas (DBH) till noradrenalin, som till sisCatecholamines, comprising the neurotransmitters dopamine (DA), noradrenaline (NA) and adrenaline (A) are synthesized by specific enzymes (tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), dopamine ß-hydroxylase (DBH), phenylethanolamine-N-methyltransferase (PNMT)) in the central nervous system. The development and distribution of different catecholaminergic systems have been described in both the brain and retina of th

Summary form only given. In this paper, we examine the effect of block size on the performance of trellis based quantization. In particular, the Viterbi and tailbiting BCJR algorithms are compared. It is shown that for short blocks of data, the T-BCJR algorithm achieves a superior performance over the Viterbi algorithm (VA). One approach is to use the maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) heurist

In HiperAccess, the scheduling problem takes two forms; firstly, the base station reserves capacity on the uplink for the different terminals, and secondly, the terminals schedule their respective traffic in its assigned share of the channel capacity. Further, the base station generally has less and older information than the terminals, hence, the base station and the terminals may act differently

Achieving upcoming emissions legislation (Euro VI) for heavy trucks is a serious challenge for the manufacturers. Apart from the increasingly strict limits on nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate emissions (PM), the limited amount of fossil fuels as well as alarming climate changes simultaneously drives the demand for low CO2 emissions. A likely solution to meet upcoming NOx limits is to use a co

This poster presents the design of a research project in its initial stages. The project Green Search investigates shaping of environmental information, including information on problems and proposed solutions, through their representation in search engine results, in social media tools, and in mobile applications dedicated to environmentally friendly living and consumption and how this is experie

Popular Abstract in Swedish Inflammation is a protective response against injury or infection (the invading microbes or their toxins) with the aim being the removal of causal agent followed by the repair process. Without inflammation, infections would go unchecked and wounds would not heal. However, inflammation is like a double-edged sword. Though it is mainly a protective response, some times, iThe pro-inflammatory mediator, Leukotriene D4 (LTD4) is a product of arachidonic acid cascade and has been implicated in asthma and inflammatory bowel diseases. Prolonged inflammatory conditions like ulcerative colitis increases the risk for the development of cancer and the factors that induce the chronic immune response remain uncertain. In this context, in the present study, we examined if expo

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling har den tillämpade psykiatrin som sitt forskningsfält och fokuserar på de problem som har samband med vård och behandling av vuxna patienter med autismspektrumstörning. Avhandlingens syfte är att medverka till att personal inom vuxenpsykiatrin får ökade kunskaper om de svårigheter med kontakt, kommunikation och tänkande som hänger samman med en autismdThe research field of the thesis is clinical adult psychiatry and it focuses on the treatment of patients with autism spectrum disorders. Before the publication of DSM-IV (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) in 1994 intellectually high-functioning patients with autism have not been included in diagnostic manuals and received appropriate treatment in adult psychiatry. In recent y
