Sociolinguistic, comparative and historical perspectives on Scandinavian gender: With focus on Jamtlandic

The present thesis investigates gender assignment in Jamtlandic from a sociolinguistic and historical/comparative perspective. Jamtlandic is a language variety spoken in northwestern Sweden in the province of Jämtland. It maintains a three-gender system, in contrast to Standard Swedish, which has a two-gender system. Study 1 of the thesis looks at Jamtlandic gender assignment from a sociolinguisti

In vivo comparative evaluation of hemodialysis tubing plasticized with DEHP and TEHTM

The migration of plasticizers from blood lines was studied in 11 patients with chronic renal failure on hemodialysis for a period of six months. Di-2-ethylhexylphthalate (DEHP), the conventional plasticizer, was compared with tri-2-ethylhexyltrimellitate (TEHTM). A liquid chromatography method for quantitative determination of DEHP and TEHTM in human blood plasma is described. During treatment wit

Enzymatic activity of prostate-specific antigen and its reactions with extracellular serine proteinase inhibitors

Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is one of the three most abundant prostatic-secreted proteins in human semen. It is a serine proteinase that, in its primary structure, manifests extensive similarities with that of the Arg-restricted glandular kallikrein-like proteinases. When isolated from semen by the addition of chromatography on aprotinin-Sepharose to a previously described procedure, PSA displ

Clinical and radiological follow-up of chronic non-obstructive pyelonephritis. A retrospective study covering thirty years

The outcome of uni- or bilateral chronic pyelonephritis was retrospectively studied in 26 patients. The material consists of all positive intravenous urographies performed at the hospital during three years in the 1950s and the follow-up time was approximately 30 years. Development of uraemia or death owing to renal disease occurred in 15% of the patients. The majority of patients with unilateral

Genetic differences between willow warbler migratory phenotypes are few and cluster in large haplotype blocks

It is well established that differences in migratory behavior between populations of songbirds have a genetic basis but the actual genes underlying these traits remains largely unknown. In an attempt to identify such candidate genes we de novo assembled the genome of the willow warbler Phylloscopus trochilus, and used whole-genome resequencing and a SNP array to associate genomic variation with mi

Extreme Ultraviolet Beam Enhancement by Relativistic Surface Plasmons

The emission of high-order harmonics in the extreme ultraviolet range from the interaction of a short, intense laser pulse with a grating target is investigated experimentally. When resonantly exciting a surface plasmon, both the intensity and the highest order observed for the harmonic emission along the grating surface increase with respect to a flat target. Harmonics are obtained when a suitabl
