  1. 1. A sustainability perspective on urban freight transport: Factors and incentives affecting local authorities in the planning procedure

    Author : Maria Lindholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sustainable transport; urban freight transport; freight transport planning;

    Abstract : Freight transport has a minor role in the transport planning procedures in most cities, although the transport operations of freight represent a heavy part of important emissions. Earlier studies in the area show that there is an existing problem mainly based on literature reviews and discussion groups. READ MORE

  2. 2. Enabling sustainable development of urban freight from a local authority perspective

    Author : Maria Lindholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; transport planning; stakeholders; urban freight transport; freight partnerships; mechanisms; sustainability; local authorities;

    Abstract : On the path towards sustainability for the urban area, local authorities make decisions that affect freight transport. However, local authorities might not always be aware of the effect their decisions and policy making have on freight transport and its stakeholders. READ MORE

  3. 3. Glucocorticoid receptors in severe inflammation : Experimental and clinical studies

    Author : Maria Bergquist; Göran Hedenstierna; Christian Rylander; Catharina Lindholm; Cecile Martijn; Djillali Annane; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glucocorticoid receptor; sepsis; inflammation; flow cytometry; Klinisk immunologi; Clinical Immunology;

    Abstract : Septic shock is one of the most common causes of mortality in intensive care, in spite of antibiotic treatment. Glucocorticoid treatment can be used to blunt an overwhelming immune response in severe inflammation. READ MORE

  4. 4. Metabolic Aspects in the Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

    Author : Åsa Maria Lindholm; Inger Sundström Porormaa; Mari Bixo; Mats Eliasson; Jan Brynhildsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; PCOS; prevalence; fibrinolysis; inflammatory markers; over weight; Obstetrics and gynaecology; Obstetrik och gynekologi; Obstetrik och gynekologi; Obstetrics and Gynaecology;

    Abstract : Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders among women of childbearing age and is associated with a number of metabolic disturbances. It has been hypothesised these women carry an increased risk of developing cardiovascular diseases (CVD) with advancing age. READ MORE

  5. 5. Kinetic Studies of NOx Storage and Reduction Catalysts - Flow Reactor Experiments and Microkinetic Modeling

    Author : Anna Maria Lindholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NOx reduction; flow reactor experiments; NOx storage; Pt Ba Al; NSR catalyst; microkinetic modeling; combined NSR and SCR system;

    Abstract : The NOx storage and reduction (NSR) technology is a promising technique to reduce NOx during oxygen excess e.g. in lean burn engine exhaust. A typical NSR catalyst consists of the following components: precious metals, such as platinum, palladium or rhodium, a storage component, usually barium, and a high surface area support, such as γ-alumina.
