1. Electron Heating and Acceleration at Earth’s Collisionless Bow Shock
Sammanfattning : Cosmic rays are ultra-relativistic particles traveling near the speed of light permeating the galaxy. Collisionless shock waves with their ubiquity throughout the universe and excellent capability of accelerating charged particles offer an explanation to the origin of cosmic rays. LÄS MER
2. Shock and Naturalization : An Inquiry into the Perception of Modernity
Sammanfattning : In sociology shock is often seen as emblematic of modernity.

4. Hypothermia as an adjunctive therapy in Acute Myocardial Infarction and Cardiogenic Shock
Sammanfattning : INTRODUCTION: Reperfusion therapy in patients with an ongoing ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is to re-establish coronary flow in the epicardial arteries as soon as possible in order to reduce infarct size and associated complications.

5. Vascular actions of antimicrobial peptides
Sammanfattning : The present thesis focuses on the vascular effects of antimicrobial peptides especially mechanisms involving the vasodilator nitric oxide (NO), which is released from the blood vessel wall during inflammatory conditions such as sepsis. Bacterial lipopolysaccharide stimulates the expression of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), which increases the NO production in vascular tissues or cultured vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). LÄS MER
