The Lepidoptera fauna of the Danish island of Anholt is surveyed, and 1160 species are recorded. Anholt is situated in Kattegat 44 km from Denmark and 47 km from Sweden. The history and environment of the island are briefly discussed, with special focus on the flora, and earlier studies of the Lepidopterera fauna of Anholt are dealt with. The present study is in first hand based on material collec
The very young Wabar craters formed by impact of an iron meteorite and are known to the scientific community since 1933. We describe field observations made during a visit to the Wabar impact site, provide analytical data on the material collected, and combine these data with poorly known information discovered during the recovery of the largest meteorites. During our visit in March 2008, only two
Popular Abstract in Swedish Inledning I detta avhandlingsarbete studeras Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) och influensa virus ur olika perspektiv. Dessa två smittämnen orsakar båda årliga utbrott med luftvägsinfektioner som ibland blir omfattande epidemier. I båda fallen kan symptomen variera från lätta förkylningsbesvär till mycket svåra, ibland livshotande lunginflammationer. Infektion med MycoplasmaDiagnostic tests based on nucleic acid amplification have become available for Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) and influenza viruses. Here, an MP PCR test detected 100% of infections during the first three symptomatic weeks, whereas classical serology detected 21% week 1, 56% week 2, and 100% week 3. Positive PCR results were uncommon in healthy individuals. Levels of MP DNA were significantly higher i

A new method to extract mass density and elemental compositions of tissues from dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) scans is described and investigated. The method decomposes a tissue into proportions of two or three predened base materials and was proposed in 2008 by a research team at Linkoping University. Informations of tissue parameters may be important in radiation treatment planning to c
Due to the Basel III regulations, Value-at-Risk (VaR) as a risk measure has become increasingly important in Europe for financial institutions. But even though it has become an important risk measure, both internally within company reporting and externally due to legislation, there is no one single way to forecast VaR that has yet proven to be superior. The aim of this paper is to examine differen
Purpose We validate the usefulness of laser-induced autofluorescence for the detection of bladder carcinoma. Materials and Methods We obtained and analyzed fluorescence spectra from 75 patients in whom bladder cancer was suspected. Tissue fluorescence was excited by a nitrogen laser using a quartz optical fiber placed in gentle contact with the area of interest. The laser-induced autofluorescence
Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequencies of nonsurgical retreatment, root-end surgery, extraction, and further restoration of root-filled teeth in Sweden in 2009 during a follow-up period of 5 years and to compare the outcomes in teeth restored with direct or indirect restorations. Methods: Data from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency were analyzed, and the frequencies
Background: Since the introduction of high-sensitivity troponin assays a greater proportion of atrial fibrillation (AF) patients present with dynamic troponin elevations. We hypothesize that significant coronary artery disease (CAD) causes relative ischemia in the setting of a rapid heart rate resulting in dynamic troponin elevation. The aim of this study was to examine if patients without known C
Large and complete glaciotectonic sequences formed by marine-terminating glaciers are rarely observed on land, hampering our understanding of the behaviour of such glaciers and the processes operating at their margins. During the Late Weichselian in western Iceland, an actively retreating marine-terminating glacier resulted in the large-scale deformation of a sequence of glaciomarine sediments. Du
Background: Heparin-binding protein (HBP) is a neutrophil-derived protein advocated as a biomarker in sepsis. We evaluated plasma HBP as a predictor of post-injury sepsis in trauma patients. Methods: Ninety-seven trauma patients were studied during the first week of intensive care. Injury-related data were collected and clinical parameters registered daily. Plasma HBP was sampled on day 1, 3 and 5
BACKGROUND: Cost-effective processing of lignocellulosic biomass into sugar derived products, such as biofuels or biochemicals, needs to be performed at high water insoluble solid (WIS) loading. However, the difficult rheology of such materials presents significant challenges. The aim of this study was to investigate if a Cel5A endoglucanase can be used to reduce the viscosity of two types of pret
Five hundred thirty-two cases of slipped capital femoral epiphysis (physiolysis colli femoris - PCF) treated at three orthopedic departments in southern Sweden between 1910 and 1982 were used for epidemiologic studies. Three hundred twenty-five cases came from a well-defined area and were used for incidence analyses. During the whole period of investigation, the disease was more common in men than
Body acceleration due to heartbeat-induced reaction forces can be measured as mobile phone accelerometer (m-ACC) signals. Our aim was to test the feasibility of using m-ACC to detect changes induced by stress by ultra-short heart rate variability (USV) indices (standard deviation of normal-to-normal interval-SDNN and root mean square of successive differences-RMSSD). Sixteen healthy volunteers wer
Objective. To study levels of sick leave and disability pension before and after TNF-antagonist therapy in AS patients. Methods. Using the population-based South Swedish Arthritis Treatment Group register, we identified 139 AS patients (aged 18-58 years, 78% men), who between January 2002 and December 2008 started their first treatment with adalimumab, etanercept or infliximab. We linked data to t
Popular Abstract in English What is common between the science of physics and global politics? They both define power in terms of energy. Indeed, the uneven distribution of petroleum reserves has been one of the main reasons of social, political and economic problems worldwide. Even more worrying is the rapid increase in the levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This is mainly caused by ouCaldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus is an extremely thermophilic, strictly anaerobic, Gram-positive and cellulolytic microorganism with a natural ability to produce hydrogen (H2) at nearly theoretical maximum yield, i.e. 4 mol/ mol of glucose. Due to its CO2-free combustion and high energy density, among other desirable properties, H2is touted as a fuel of the future. Biological H2 production b
