BACKGROUND: Matrix Gla protein (MGP) is an extrahepatic protein that is dependent on glutamate carboxylation, a vitamin K-dependent process. Its dysfunctional form, desphospho-uncarboxylated-MGP, has been associated with increased arterial calcification and stiffness. The aim of this study was to measure the degree of postoperative carboxylation of MGP and two other Gla proteins in patients schedu

Popular Abstract in English Internal combustion engine plays an important role in our society. In our daily life, we use them to drive cars, trucks, ships, generating electricity and heat, and in many other applications. Modern internal combustion engines fall into three catalogues: gasoline engines, diesel engines and low temperature compression ignition engine. They are developed to achieve highThis thesis deals with direct numerical simulation (DNS) of low temperature combustion in internal combustion engine related conditions. In particular, HCCI (homogeneous charge compression ignition), SACI (spark assisted ho-mogeneous charge compression ignition) and PPC (partially premixed charge combustion) were investigated to gain deeper understanding on the details of the combustion process. I

This report is a fire safety assessment of Bråhögshallen, a multi-sport facility located in Staffanstorp in the south of Sweden. The building consists of one larger and one smaller sports hall, a bowling alley and other smaller facilities used for a variety of different sports. Bråhögshallen was built in 1969, and the regulations regarding fire safety has since changed. The assessments in this rep

Uppsatsen handlar om ogiltigförklaring och skadestånd inom ramen för ämnet tvister om uppsägnings- och avskeds giltighet. Uppsatsen använder en kombination av rättsdogmatisk och rättsanalytisk metod. Syftet med uppsatsen är att klargöra, problematisera och jämföra gällande rätt med LAS-utredningens- och överenskommelsens förslag inom ramen för uppsatsens ämne. Syftet är vidare att analysera potent

The thesis will present and analyze different roles women actors in Northern Ireland took upon themselves during the period known as ”The Troubles” (1969- 1998). It will present a theoretical framework that consists of several relevant theories on agency, actorship and gender in conflict as well as created categories that helps organize the roles identified. The type of conflict, in this case eth

This chapter will begin with a brief discussion of early modernity and the rise of the welfare state, before going on to explore how law and legal regulation change as we enter “late modernity”. The notion of “late modernity” – not to be confused with postmodernity – captures how industrially advanced societies evolve, when globalisation, aided by information technology, accelerates rapidly at theThis chapter will begin with a brief discussion of early modernity and the rise of the welfare state, before going on to explore how law and legal regulation change as we enter “late modernity”.

The influence of grain boundaries on the mechanical properties of poly-crystalline metals is well known. Here we investigate the influence from a centrally placed grain boundary in nano-sized beams of Cu subjected to tensile loading. The crystallographic orientations in the grains are [100], [110] and [111]. The investigation is performed by means of molecular dynamic simulations employing the mol

The study examines the adequacy of the measurement of the cross-section of expected stock returns on the London Stock Exchange of the recent three-factor model introduced by Chen, Novy-Marx and Zhang against that of the Fama and French three-factor model. The former model use factors in addition to the market factor based on profitability and investment while the latter model use factors based on
