  2. 1. A Swedish dilemma : Aging during the search for a national insurance, 1884-1913

    Author : Mark Magnuson; Christer Ahlberger; Klas Nyberg; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; demography; family; poor relief; old age; retirement; income; smallholders; History; Historia;

    Abstract : Non-wage holders made up a significant portion of Sweden’s population in 1900. Yet, there are surprisingly few studies covering their formative role in the universal coverage of Sweden’s Pension Act of 1913. READ MORE

  4. 2. Hearing Screening of Infants and The Importance of Early Language Acquisition

    Author : Miriam Magnuson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Congenital hearing impairment. Neonatal hearing screening. Late diagnosis. Parental concern. Otoacoustic emissions. Early language acquisition;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the parental perspective on hearing-screening of children, and the importance of the time of detection of a congenital hearing impairment for the child's development. A qualitative approach based mainly on interviews was employed, and the results were analysed according to three different methods - empirical phenomenology, grounded theory, and case-study.

  5. 3. Mechanism of F-actin crosslinking by filamin A and the anti-inflammatory functions of plasma gelsolin in bodily fluids

    Author : Teresia Magnuson Osborn; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Cytoskeleton; Crosslinking; F-actin; Filamin; Gelsolin; Inflammation; Plasma; Platelet-activating factor; Lysophosphatidic acid; Rheumatoid arthritis;

    Abstract : Gelsolin (GSN) and filamin A (FLNa) are two actin-binding proteins discovered in our laboratory over 30 years ago. GSN is a calcium-activated actin severing and barbed end capping protein that is expressed as both intracellular and extracellular (plasma gelsolin, pGSN) isoforms. READ MORE

  6. 4. Electron Donor Systems in Natural and Artificial Photosynthesis

    Author : Ann Magnuson; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; solar energy; artificial photosynthesis; Photosystem II; EPR; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : Photosynthesis is the process by which light energy is converted into chemical products, in photoautotrophic bacteria, algae and plants. The principal idea is the production of reducing agents by photo-induced oxidation of a sacrificial electron donor. READ MORE

  7. 5. Electronic structure studies using resonant X-ray and photoemission spectroscopy

    Author : Martin Magnuson; D D Sarma; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses the electronic structure of molecules and solids using resonant X-ray emission and photoemission spectroscopy. The use of monochromatic synchrotron radiation and the improved performance of the instrumentation have opened up the possibility of detailed analyses of the response of the electronic systems under interaction with X-rays.
