Cardiovascular disease is common among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a transient cardiac disorder that, in its typical form, involves left ventricular dysfunction with apical ballooning and mimics acute coronary syndrome (ACS). "Bronchogenic TTS" has been proposed as a specific form of TTS (during severe acute dyspnea in asthma or COPD) wit
From at least the Late Neolithic through the end of the Bronze Age and onwards, people continued to inhabit the settlement of Asine. For this reason, the site makes an interesting starting point for discussing long term change. This short paper presents new data on the animal bones from Bronze Age Asine. The data set is used for a zooarchaeological discussion of the site from a diachronic perspect
Popular Abstract in English Zirconium alloys are widely used in nuclear power reactors as cladding material for their fuels due to the high strength, good corrosion resistance and low neutron absorption cross-section, even in extreme environment, that is characteristic for zirconium. The element, however, also has strong affinity for hydrogen, and when both are present they readily react and form Zirconium alloys are widely used in the nuclear industry because of their high strength, good corrosion resistance and low neutron absorption cross-section. Zirconium has a strong affinity for hydrogen, however, and if hydrogen concentration builds up, the material will gradually degrade. In one class of such hydrogen caused degradation, called hydride induced embrittlement, hydrogen chemically re
Seeking to identify alternative intervention techniques, to reduce mortality in war becomes more extensive. Some methods are met with more criticism than others. Psychological operations are not a new phenomenon, but starts to be used more and more, and is also a new addition for the Swedish Armed Forces.

Denna uppsats behandlar det svenska naturskyddets rättsutveckling från de första naturskyddslagarnas tillkomst i början av 1900-talet fram till idag. Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka naturskyddslagstiftningens utveckling vad gäller innehåll, motiv och bakomliggande miljöetisk natursyn. Undersökningen påvisar en rättsutveckling där lagstiftningen fått en ökad omfattning och högre ambitioner. Från
This thesis examines the relationship between gender equality, demographic change, and economic growth for the context of Sweden, 1870-1990. Large-scale developments changed a society with relatively little gender equality in the late nineteenth century to the egalitarian welfare state that we know today. Using personally-collected data at the Swedish county-level, a measure of gender equality - t
This paper conducts an empirical study on the relationship between the emerging financial market of China and the developed market of the US, both during and after the 2007-2009 financial crisis. Stock indices from the two countries are analysed to examine whether there exist any comovements between the different equity markets. Econometric time series testing of weekly stock values indicate that
