  1. 6. The Role of Phosphodiesterase 3B in the Regulation of Insulin Secretion

    Author : Linda Härndahl; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; diabetology; Endokrinologi; sekretion; diabetologi; secreting systems; Endocrinology; beta-cell; diabetes; islet; PDE3B; cAMP;

    Abstract : Pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance are the two hallmarks of type 2 diabetes. An early sign of beta-cell dysfunction is impaired nutrient-induced insulin release. Several insulin secretagogues act by increasing the formation of intracellular cAMP. READ MORE

  2. 7. Laser Spectroscopy in Scattering Media for Biological and Medical Applications

    Author : Linda Persson; Atomfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Instrumentation technology; Mät- och instrumenteringsteknik; Atom- och molekylärfysik; Atomic and molecular physics; Fysik; Physics; Monte Carlo simulations; Biomedical Optics; Scattering media; Gas measurements; Near infrared spectroscopy; Diode laser spectroscopy; Absorption spectroscopy;

    Abstract : Tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy can be utilised for gas detection in biological and medical applications. The common approach is to analyse transmitted light according to the Beer-Lambertian law. READ MORE

  3. 8. Influence of the electrolyte on the electrode reactions in the chlorate process

    Author : Linda Nylén; Göran Lindbergh; Ann Cornell; Mårten Behm; Geoeff H Kelsall; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chlorate; chloride oxidation; critical anode potential; chromate; DSA; hydrogen evolution; iron; mass transport; oxygen evolution; REM; RDE; steel; Electrochemistry; Elektrokemi;

    Abstract : The chlorate process is very energy intensive and a major part of the production costs are for electrical energy. Since the electricity prices are constantly increasing and may also vary periodically, the chlorate plants may be forced to adjust their production rate to the price at each moment in order to minimise their costs.

  4. 9. Tracheal Extubation of Patients Cared for in the Anesthesia Setting : Experiences Described by Registered Nurse Anesthetists and Anesthesiologists

    Author : Linda Rönnberg; Ove Hellzén; Christina Melin-Johansson; Ulrica Nilsson; Christine Brulin; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background In Sweden, extubation is an interdisciplinary process involving teamwork between Registered Nurse Anesthetists (RNA) and Anesthesiologists, and comprehensive demands are placed on the professionals providing anesthesia. The extubation of the endotracheal tube after General Anesthesia (GA) is a critical moment for the patient. READ MORE

  5. 10. Hypoxia-induced phenotypic modulation of human neuroblastoma cells

    Author : Linda Holmquist Mengelbier; Institutionen för translationell medicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicin människa och djur ; Medicine human and vertebrates ; reoxygenation; HIF-2a; HIF-1a; differentiation; hypoxia; neuroblastoma;

    Abstract : Neuroblastoma is a childhood tumour derived from cells of the sympathetic nervous system, which are arrested at low differentiation stages. Low differentiation stage and high tumour stage correlate to poor outcome. READ MORE
