2. 1. Diabetes-induced Alterations in Renal Microcirculation and Metabolism

   Author : Fredrik Palm; Per Liss; Peter Hansell; Per-Ola Carlsson; Gerald DiBona; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physiology; diabetes mellitus; kidney; nephropathy; oxygen tension; haemodynamic; nitric oxide; oxygen consumption; radical oxygen species; polyol pathway; Fysiologi; Physiology; Fysiologi;

   Abstract : Diabetes-induced renal complications, i.e. diabetes nephropathy, are a major cause of morbidity and mortality. The exact mechanism mediating the negative influence of hyperglycaemia on renal function is unclear, although several hypotheses have been postulated. READ MORE

4. 2. Aphasia and Communication in Everyday Life : Experiences of persons with aphasia, significant others, and speech-language pathologists

   Author : Monica Blom Johansson; Karin Sonnander; Marianne Carlsson; Per Östberg; Per Wester; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Aphasia; Significant others; Interpersonal communication; Communication strategies; Communication partner training; Speech-language pathology services; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

   Abstract : The aims of this thesis were to describe the experiences of persons with aphasia and their significant others of their conversations and use of communication strategies, examine current practice of family-oriented speech-language pathology (SLP) services, and test a family-oriented intervention in the early phase of rehabilitation.The persons with aphasia valued having conversations despite perceiving their aphasia as a serious social disability.

5. 3. Implantation-Site Dependent Differences in Engraftment and Function of Transplanted Pancreatic Islets

   Author : Joey Lau; Per-Ola Carlsson; Leif Jansson; Carina Carlsson; Caroline Kampf; Annika Tibell; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Cell biology; Type 1 diabetes; pancreatic islets; human islets; islet transplantation; vascular engraftment; revascularization; implantation-site; microenvironment; vascular density; insulin release; pro insulin biosynthesis; glucose oxidation; Cellbiologi;

   Abstract : Transplanting pancreatic islets into the liver through the portal vein is currently the most common procedure in clinical islet transplantations for treating patients with brittle type 1 diabetes. However, most islet grafts fail within a 5-year period necessitating retransplantation. READ MORE

6. 4. Entrained flow black liquor gasification : detailed experiments and mathematical modelling

   Author : Per Carlsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

   Abstract : Black liquor, a by-product from the Kraft pulping process is a highly viscous fluid consisting of approximately 30% water, 30 % alkali salts and 40 % combustible material. The alkali salts originating from the pulp making process need to be recovered in order for the pulp mill to be economical and to satisfy environmental regulation. READ MORE

7. 5. Large scale experiments and modeling of black liquor gasification

   Author : Per Carlsson; Mikko Hupa; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

   Abstract : Biomass gasification could provide a basis for increased electricity and engine fuel production from a renewable source in the pulp and paper industry. This work focuses on the largest byproduct available at the pulp mills, black liquor. READ MORE
