  2. 1. Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme : Effects of Smoking and Other Risk Factors for Cardiovascular Diseases

    Author : Liza Ljungberg; Karin Persson; Rolf Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the most common cause of death in Western countries. Smoking, hypertension, diabetes mellitus and hypercholesterolemia are considered as major risk factors. However, the underlying mechanisms by which these factors cause CVDs are not entirely clear.

  4. 2. Pharmacological interactions between angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, bradykinin and nitric oxide

    Author : Karin Persson; Karl-Erik Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : angiotensin-converting enzyme; angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors; atherosclerosis; bradykinin; endothelium; in vitro; nitric oxide; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Cardiovascular diseases are a major cause of death in Western countries. Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is as a key enzyme in the renin-angiotensin system involved in the regulation of blood pressure, and water and electrolyte balance in the body. READ MORE

  5. 3. Continuum modeling of paperboard for the mechanical response of converting processes

    Author : Kristofer Robertsson; Hållfasthetslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Paperboard; Continuum modeling; Converting processes; FEM simulations; Finite strain theory; Damage modeling; Rate-dependent; Creasing and folding; Out-of-plane experiments;

    Abstract : Paperboard is a thin and lightweight material made of cellulose fibers and it is an important component in packaging material where it provides stiffness and rigidity. The scope of this work is the development of continuum models, and its numerical treatments, for simulating the processes of converting paperboard into packages. READ MORE

  6. 4. Converting CAD Drawings to Product Models

    Author : Robert Noack; KTH; []
    Keywords : Shape recognition; shape interpretation; product models;

    Abstract : The fundamental aim of this study is to examine whether itis possible to automatically convert vector-based drawings toproduct models. The reason fordoing this is that the newobject-based systems cannot make use of the information storedin CAD drawings, which limits the usability of thesesystems. READ MORE

  7. 5. Steroid converting enzymes in breast cancer

    Author : Cecilia Gunnarsson; Tommy Fornander; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Estrogens play a central role in the development of breast cancer. Most breast carcinomas are detected after menopause and despite a low degree of ovarian estrogen production and low levels of serum estrogen these tumors show a high in situ level of estrogens. READ MORE
