Hemostasis is a critical physiological process that stops bleeding at the site of an injury while ensuring normal blood flow elsewhere, thereby preventing excessive clot formation that could lead to dangerous conditions like thrombosis. This delicate balance is influenced by genetics, medical conditions such as cancer, and various medications. When a blood vessel is damaged, platelets adhere to the exposed area, become activated, and aggregate to form an initial plug. Coagulation factors, particularly thrombin, create a strong fibrin network to stabilize the clot. Disruptions in this process can result in significant bleeding or dangerous clot formation. This thesis aims to explore and under...
This is an account of the Swan label’s first thirty years, written in chronological order with short chapters each illustrating various aspects of the scheme. There are few areas of public life in which there have been so many vague pronouncements as for environmental protection. Perhaps that’s because it’s so easy to agree on the goals, but sohard to find the right solutions and practise what you preach. Here at the Nordic Swan, we’ve done things properly from dayone by setting concrete, measurable environmental performance requirements and turning the environment into a competitive advantage. There have been many conflicts and disagreements, but no one can deny that ecolabelling has led to significant environmental improvements. The Nordic region with its 30 million people is the world’s twelfthlargest economy, and this makes a difference when businesses plan product changes and marketing campaigns. The label is a success far beyond the borders of the Nordic region.

The atherosclerotic process and its consequences are considered driven by an imbalance between pro- and ant-inflammatory actions. One contributing factor in this scenario is an altered regulation of apoptosis, which affects both immune, vascular and myocardial cells. The general aim of this thesis was to measure soluble markers of apoptosis in peripheral venous blood, in various clinical stages of coronary artery disease (CAD) and to further identify possible sources with specific focus on natural killer (NK) cell apoptosis and myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (IR)-injury. There was evidence of an increased apoptosis of NK cells, but not T cells, in the circulation of CAD patients. Spontaneou...
