  1. 6. Essays on Growth, Political Economy and Development

    Författare :Abdulaziz B. Shifa; Per Krusell; Jakob Svensson; Kjetil Storesletten; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Growth; human capital transfer; productivity; catch-up; Urban bias; rural poverty; dictatorship; Agricultural growth; manufacturing growth; instrumental variable; Economics; nationalekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis has three self-contained articles.Economic growth and trade in human capital: A salient empirical pattern in the East Asian “miracle” is a large increase in output and factor accumulation despite  only a modest increase in TFP. I develop and calibrate a model of growth and catch-up to provide a possible explanation. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Economic growth and migration during the industrialization of Sweden : a general equilibrium approach

    Författare :Urban Karlström; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation is an attempt to interpret a critical period of Swedish history, the first wave of industrialization, from 1871 to 1890. The questions raised have been important issues in Swedish history. LÄS MER

  4. 8. CVD Growth of Silicon Carbide for High Frequency Applications

    Författare :Urban Forsberg; Erik Janzén; Anne Henry; Christian Brylinski; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Material physics with surface physics; Materialfysik med ytfysik;

    Sammanfattning : Silicon Carbide (SiC) is an important wide band gap semiconductor with outstanding electronic properties. With figures of merit far better than silicon, SiC is believed to replace and outcompete silicon in many applications using high frequencies, high voltage and high temperatures. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Transforming growth factor-ß. Signal regulation in health and disease

    Författare :Urban Molander; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TGF-b; BMP; Smad; signal transduction; LDL; skin tumour; mesangial;

    Sammanfattning : TGF-b superfamily members have been shown to play a pivotal role in multicellular organisms. Knowledge about signal transduction pathways is important in order to understand and cure diseases like cancer where TGF-b´s growth inhibitory signal often are disenabled via mutated or absent signalling components.

  7. 10. About hyaluronan in the hypertrophic heart : studies on coordinated regulation of extracellular matrix signalling

    Författare :Urban Hellman; Anders Waldenström; Stellan Mörner; Anna Engström-Laurent; Lena Jonasson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :hyaluronan; hyaluronan synthases; gene expression; extracellular matrix; cardiac hypertrophy; rat wistar; male ; cardiomyocytes; growth factors; fibroblasts; microvesicles; exosomes; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicine; medicin;

    Sammanfattning : Background. Myocardial hypertrophy is a risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Independent of underlying disease, the cardiac muscle strives in different ways to compensate for an increased workload. This remodelling of the heart includes changes in the extracellular matrix which will affect systolic and diastolic cardiac function. LÄS MER
