- The innate immune system and in particular the pattern-recognition receptors Toll-like receptors have recently been linked to atherosclerosis. Consequently, inhibition of various signaling molecules downstream of the Toll-like receptors has been tested as a strategy to prevent progression of atherosclerosis. Receptor-interacting protein 2 (Rip2) is a serine/threonine kinase that is involved in multiple nuclear factor-κB (NFκB) activation pathways, including Toll-like receptors, and is therefore an interesting potential target for pharmaceutical intervention.

- Background: Migration has been implicated as a risk factor for autism, but evidence is limited and inconsistent. Aims: To investigate the relationship between parental migration status and risk of autism spectrum disorder, taking into consideration the importance of region of origin, timing of migration and possible discrepancies in associations between autism subtypes. Method: Record-linkage study within the total child population of Stockholm County between 2001 and 2007. Individuals with high- and low-functioning autism were defined as having autism spectrum disorder with and without comorbid intellectual disability, and ascertained via health and habilitation service registers. Results: In total, 4952 individuals with autism spectrum disorder were identified, comprising 2855 children with high-functioning autism and 2097 children with low-functioning autism. Children of migrant parents were at increased risk of low-functioning autism (odds ratio (OR) = 1.5, 95% CI 1.3-1.7); this risk was highest when parents migrated from regions with a low human development index, and peaked when migration occurred around pregnancy (OR=2.3, 95% CI 1.7-3.0). A decreased risk of high-functioning autism was observed in children of migrant parents, regardless of area of origin or timing of migration. Parental age, income or obstetric complications did not fully explain any of these associations. Conclusions: Environmental factors associated with migration may contribute to the development of autism presenting with comorbid intellectual disability, especially when acting in utero. High- and low-functioning autism may have partly different aetiologies, and should be studied separately.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- ntroduction Simulation has become an established method for education and training of Emergency Medical Services personnel in different skills such as advanced airway techniques, also in evaluation and initial care of stroke patients and in pre - hospital trauma. Simula tion can be a useful method to improve learning. To our knowledge, there are only a few studies that relate simulation to the effect on clinical skills. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of simulation on the clinical competence in a pre - hospital trauma care course for ambulance nurses. Methods The study was performed using a before - after design. Seventeen ambulance nurse students who participated in a trauma care course were evaluated in two simulated trauma cases. All subjects had passed the initial theoretical part of the course. The pre - test was performed in the beginning of the following part of the course involving simulation and the post - test at the end of the course. The analysis was performed by assessment of performance, as seen on video - tapes from the pre - tests and the post - tests. A validated instrument was used to determine the level of student’ s clinical competence. Paired t - test was used to confirm differences between the pre - test and post - test results . Results There was a significant increase in the over - all results for the post - test, with a difference of 1.12 points (t=4.642, df=16, p= 0.001) Situation Awareness, Patient Assessment and Decision Making showed the most pronounced improvements. Conclusion The results imply t hat simulation in addition to traditional theoretical education improves the clinical competence of the students, in comparison to traditional education and training without any significant amount of simulation.

Test av korrektionstjänst för GPS-mottagare vid vägytemätning
- 2012
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- En mycket viktig faktor vid inventering av vägnätets tillstånd med hjälp av mätbilar är att med tillräckligt bra noggrannhet kunna positionsbestämma mätdata.I mars 2012 lades korrektionstjänsten EPOS, som hittills använts för att ge en förbättrad positionering, ner. I och med detta har VTI på uppdrag av Trafikverket utvärderat om den kostnadsfria korrektionstjänsten EGNOS, som drivs av ESA, är möjlig att använda istället. Svaret är ja. Inga systematiska skillnader i positionsangivelser har kunnat observeras då den gamla och nya korrektionstjänsten använts.

Åkkvalitet på vinterväg
- 2014
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Denna VTI-studie konstaterar att det går att mäta ojämnheter på vinterväg på samma sätt som på barmarksväg. Både ojämnheter och buller vid låga frekvenser ökar vid visst vinterväglag och är kopplade till hastighet. De mätningar som utförts inom projektets ramar visar att det går utmärkt att utföra mätningar på en snöklädd yta. Med vinterväglag menas här en snöklädd väg cirka ett dygn efter ett kraftigt snöfall. Baserat på de vägar som mättes visar studien att ojämnheter i våglängdsintervallet 0,05 till 1 meter påverkas allra mest av vinterväglaget. Ojämnheterna ökar cirka 5 gånger i medeltal för hela testslingan från barmarks- till vinterförhållanden. Det går även att se att ytans struktur, som beskrivs av de kortaste våglängderna som undersöktes, <10 mm, blir slätare på den snöklädda ytan vilket var en av hypoteserna och som indikerar att mätningen är pålitlig. Kopplingen mellan buller och ojämnheter är relaterade till hastighet. Den största ljudskillnaden mellan vinter- och sommarväg var vid låga frekvenser. Det uppfattade ljudet i bilen var då mellan 3 och 6 decibel högre för körningen på vinterväg. I de mer högfrekventa områdena var skillnaden i ljudnivå tvärtom, lägre för vintervägen än för sommarvägen och en trolig orsak till detta kan vara att ljudet absorberas av snön.

Constructing communities : The establishment and demographic development of sawmill communities in the Sundsvall district, 1850-1890
- 2010
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This dissertation studies the establishment and demographic development of the sawmill communities that emerged in the Sundsvall district during the latter half of the 19th century. The intention is to highlight the importance of the sawmill communities and their resident populations by discussing community construction from a demographic perspective as well as socially and symbolically. Based on church registers, this is a longitudinal study that includes information from 31 individual sawmill communities. This study has shown that the establishment and demographic development of the sawmill communities was not an instant process that necessarily followed the construction of the sawmill industries. The prerequisites of the geographical locations and year of establishment influenced population development, but the speed and size of the settlements were individual to each mill site. More prosperous times for the industry during the 1870s resulted in that migration increased consequently leading to quickly populated communities and larger registered core populations in residence. Migration to the sawmill communities from within the parishes was infrequent and the geographical backgrounds revealed that an extremely small proportion of the populations had been born within the district, implying a migratory hesitation among locally born. The sawmill populations were male-dominated due to the large groups of temporary workers inhabiting the communities, although, adult males barely made up one-third of the registered populations. The largest demographic group was children aged 0-14 years. The strong presence of children and high proportions of married individuals suggests that the sawmill communities were family oriented communities, more so than non-sawmill areas. Long-time settled families had usually formed kinship networks with other residents. This dissertation concludes that while time was important for the development of the sawmill communities, so were the registered populations residing in these communities. Residency would have been key in claiming belonging to the sawmill communities and to be considered as a real sawmill worker. Residency, family and kin therefore contributed to the construction of community structures, geographically, socially and symbolically.
