By use of a batch microcalorimeter of the thermopile type, heat production was measured in isolated populations of human peripheral blood cells exposed to defined immune complexes formed in vitro. It was found that most of the heat production recorded in whole blood after admixture of immune complexes occurs in the granulocytes. Under these conditions small but constantly higher activation values

Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver’s Travels and Terry Pratchett’s Discworld novels set in Ankh-Morpork are similar enough that both can be treated as belonging to the subgenre of comic fantasy. The narratives foreground the fantastic, written to entertain and amuse its readers but also contain societal criticism in the form of satire or parody. This paper compares the unnatural aspects of Gulliver’s Trave

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen består av fyra kapitel. Efter det inledande kapitlet används i kapitel två och tre ekonomiska experiment för att undersöka hur deltagare fördelar ett överskott mellan sig då det finns två fokalpunkter. Kapitel fyra undersöker huruvida en penningpolitisk störning har asymmetriska effekter på de svenska länens sysselsättning. I kapitel två, samförfattat med This thesis consists of two parts. The first part uses economic experiments to investigate how participants choose to divide a surplus in the presence of competing focal points. The second part examines whether a monetary policy shock has asymmetric regional effects. Chapter 2 suggests a simple separation mechanism based on heterogeneity among subjects to understand how they choose equilibrium wh

We study the density of solutions to Diophantine inequalities involving non-singular ternary forms, or equivalently, the density of rational points close to non-singular plane algebraic curves.

Background: In a previous study, we explored real-world programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) testing and treatment patterns for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in the era of immune-oncology. The present study aimed to investigate overall survival (OS) with PD-(L)1 inhibitors with longer-term follow-up in the Swedish setting. Materials and methods: Data were extracted from th

Vår forskning handlar om att kartlägga de mekanismer som ligger bakom njursjukdom för att ta fram ny diagnostik och behandling för de cirka 10% av Sveriges befolkning som lider av nedsatt njurfunktion. Vi forskar också fram nya metoder för att förbättra behandlingen med så kallad peritonealdialys (bukdialys) - en form av dialysbehandling för patienter med svår njursvikt. Vi samarbetar med andra foOur research focuses on identifying the mechanisms behind kidney disease in order to develop new diagnostic methods and treatment for the approximately 10% of Sweden's population suffering from impaired renal function. We are also researching new methods to improve treatment with peritoneal dialysis - a form of dialysis treatment for patients with severe renal failure. We collaborate with other re

OBJECTIVE: To study long-term work disability before and after tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-antagonist therapy in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). METHODS: Using the population-based South Swedish Arthritis Treatment Group Register, we identified 191 patients with PsA (median age 43 years, range 18-58 years, 54% men), who between January 2003 and December 2007 started treatment with adalim

After electrophoresis of an alkaline extract of type 15 group A streptococci, three main precipitation lines were obtained in diffusion experiments against commercial human polyclonal IgG (lines 1, 2 and 3). Nineteen of 23 sera (83%) from apparently healthy human individuals gave line 3, while 6 of them (26%) gave line 1. The sera giving line 1 did also give line 3. Line 2 was obtained with 2 sera

Background Sometimes, patients with a history of metal intolerance react negatively or doubtfully to nickel at patch testing. Objective The aim of the study was to investigate whether aqueous nickel sulfate hexahydrate at 15% and 30% traces more contact allergy than the nickel preparation in the baseline series at 5%. Methods In the period 1995-2015, more than 800 of 16,059 patients with a negativ
