Slide 1 Amber in Pliny the Elder’s Natural History Dalia Andziulytė University of Vilnius What was the price (pretium) of amber? I. Monetary value Pliny speaks about amber next to the pearls, crystal, spar (murrinum), emeralds, and says, that a small human made of amber could be more pretious than a slave, alive and strong: C. Plinius Secundus. Naturalis Historia. XXXVII.30 Proximum locum in delic

Background and aims: To estimate short- and long-term costs of inpatient hospitalization in Sweden for major diabetes mellitus-related events. Materials and methods: Costs were estimated using administrative hospital data from the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare, which is linked to the Swedish National Diabetes Register. Data were available for 179 749 patients with diabetes in Sweden
Systems based on bag-of-words models from image features collected at maxima of sparse interest point operators have been used successfully for both computer visual object and action recognition tasks. While the sparse, interest-point based approach to recognition is not inconsistent with visual processing in biological systems that operate in 'saccade and fixate' regimes, the methodology and emph
Popular Abstract in Swedish Järn har den kemiska beteckningen Fe från latinskans ferrum. Det är det fjärde vanligaste ämnet i världen och utgör ca en femtedel av jordskorpan. Trots det kan både djur och växter ha järnbrist. Hur kan detta vara möjligt? Problemet är egentligen inte förekomsten av järn utan att järnet som vi och alla andra organismer behöver har oxidationstillståndet Fe(II) medan detIt is of vital importance to understand the systems for iron metabolism and this thesis contributes to this by providing insights into the structure and function of the acquisition and homeostasis of iron. The two proteins that have been primarily investigated are a ferric reductase from Arabidopsis thaliana called FRO2 and a mitochondrial iron chaperone from Saccharomyces cerevisiae called fratax
Popular Abstract in Swedish Så gott som alla metaller reagerar vid normala omständigheter med syret i luften och oxideras, vilket förändrar materialets egenskaper. T.ex. rostar järn efter hand, något som alla bilägare är bittert medvetna om. Oxider behöver dock inte vara negativa, utan kan även fungera som barriärer mot fortsatt korrosion, isolerande skikt i mikroelektronikkomponenter m.m. FöljaktThe oxidation of Rh, Pd and Pt is studied under conditions ranging from ultra high vacuum to ambient pressures, with emphasis on a complete understanding of the geometry of the various oxide structures found. The investigations use a combination of various experimental methods, including high resolution core level spectroscopy, low energy electron diffraction, surface x-ray diffraction and scannin
Context: The age-related decline in dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) levels is thought to be of importance for general and vascular aging. However, data on the association between DHEA and mortality are conflicting. Objectives: We tested the hypothesis that low serum DHEA and DHEA sulfate (DHEA-S) levels predict all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) death in elderly men. Design, Setting, and Par
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning I Arktis finns det enorma lager av kol som ligger i och under permafrosten, vilket är frusen mark som inte har tinat på två år. Mycket tyder på att delar av dessa lager är känsliga för en temperaturökning och idag sker en pågående uppvärmning. Arktis värms snabbare än övriga jorden på grund av att vit reflekterande is och snö smälter, vilket resulterar i att hav The permafrost area in the Arctic region contains vast carbon stocks within and beneath the permafrost, which is frozen ground that has not thawed in two years. These carbon stocks are sensitive to ongoing global warming. When the white and reflective snow and ice melts, the remaining land and sea surfaces absorb more shortwave radiation and get warmer. Heat transport to the Arctic will also incre
Svensk lagstiftning om offentlig upphandling bygger på EU-direktiv. Grundtanken bakom upphandlingsdirektiven är att värna om de friheter som följer av den inre marknadens reglering och att bidra till en effektiv konkurrens där upphandlande myndigheter från olika medlemsländer ska kunna tävla om offentliga kontrakt på lika villkor. En upphandlande myndighet som på förhand har svårt att bestämma voSwedish legislation on public procurement is based on EU-directives. The basic idea behind the public procurement directives is to protect the freedoms derived from the regulation of the internal market and to contribute to effective competition in which contracting authorities from different Member States should be able to compete for public contracts on equal terms. A contracting authority that
Salinisation is a global issue which leads to desertification and soil degradation and exposure to salt is also known to inhibit microbial activity and plant growth. This study was conducted to determine the influence of salinity on microbial activity of a non- saline soil. By using Salt Induced Community Tolerance (SICT) concept I found that microbial community tolerance to salt can be induced in
Bakgrund: Hälso- och sjukvården genomgår kontinuerligt omorganiseringar och utsätts för ständiga ekonomiska besparingar. Samtidigt ställer sjukvårdens snabba utvecklingstakt krav på ett ledarskap som kan hantera den problematik som en komplex verksamhet innebär. Konsekvenserna av förändringsarbetet har blivit att avdelningar har slagits samman och cheftätheten har blivit glesare. De chefer som är Introduction: The health care system is undergoing continuous reorganizations and subjected to constant demands for financial savings. The rapid pace of development requires leadership that can deal with the issues that arise in this complex operation, however, the impact of these changes have resulted in consolidated departments and fewer staff. The managers who are left will be responsible for u
The spawning behaviour of wild caught brood stock as well as early egg and larval development were studied in yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi). Spawning occurred naturally in the austral spring/summer (November–February) when the seawater temperature was above 17 °C. Courtship behaviour involved one male and female, and consisted of a high-speed pursuit punctuated by stalling, nipping and tou
Atrial septal defect (ASD) is the most common congenital heart malformation diagnosed in adult life. In this thesis important clinical, haemodynamic and electrophysiological aspects of ASD in the adult are explored. The diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance velocity mapping (MRvm)in calculating the pulmonary/systemic flow ratio (QP/QS)was assessed (I). The mean and maximal error by MRvm was 1
Background and aims: We examined whether the excess cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk among adults with steatotic liver disease (SLD) subtypes could be reduced or eliminated through joint control of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP). Methods and results: This prospective cohort study included 291,995 participants f
IntroductionAnal squamous cell carcinoma (ASCC) is an HPV-related tumor primarily treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT). Salvage surgery is reserved for patients with residual or recurrent disease following CRT, representing a highly selected, high-risk subgroup. Population-based data on outcomes and prognostic factors after salvage surgery are limited. This study aimed to assess overall
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Kolcykeln är enkelt uttryckt den globala balansräkningen av kolets (C) förflyttning genom olika sfärer såsom mellan atmosfären och biosfären, således är kolcykeln av stor betydelse för mänsklighetens existens. Exempelvis har atmosfäriska koncentrationer av koldioxid (CO2) och metan (CH4) ökat de senaste 200 hundra åren på grund av mänskliga aktiviteter (till stoCarbon is central to our existence. It plays a fundamental role in the carbon cycle. Atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) have been increasing for about two centuries as a result of human activities. The need to understand how carbon cycles through the Earth-system is important for a variety of reasons, but mainly in order to assess the effects of these rising green
