    Notes: In Denmark the life expectancy of women has been declining since 1980, and is now the lowest of all OECD countries. Based upon analyses of the different trends in mortality of 35–64-year-old women in Denmark compared to women in Norway and Sweden, national differentials in external determinants of morbidity and premature mortality are described. The excess mortality of women in Denmark is linked to lifestyle factors: tobacco smoking, alcohol and drug consumption. We discuss the possible impact of other external factors: full-time employment, work load, job insecurity, unemployment, single motherhood, and social isolation. The main hypothesis is that the daily life of women in Denmark has deteriorated over the years, and that changes in lifestyle and behaviour in part can be explained by evolved strategies in order to cope with anxiety and strain. Contrary to conditions in Sweden, the welfare system in Denmark has not facilitated the combination of child-bearing and paid work. The analysis points to the importance of including data of external stressors in discussions of national variances in lifestyle factors linked to premature mortality.

    Notes: Summary Implantation of allogeneic pancreatic islets encapsulated in Millipore diffusion chambers has been reported to normalize the obese-hyperglycaemic syndrome in mice. In the present study, both young and adult ob/ob mice remained hyperglycaemic and gained weight after intrasplenic implantation of 500 isogeneic islets isolated from lean mice. Such islets normalized the elevated blood-glucose of alloxan-diabetic lean mice. Morphometric analysis of the intrasplenically implanted islets showed that the mean islet volume in the ob/ob mice was five times larger than that of the lean, non-diabetic mice. Immunocytochemical staining of the spleens showed an increased proportion of B-cells in the enlarged, intrasplenic islets in the ob/ob mice. Moreover, autoradiographical examination of these islets demonstrated the presence of several labelled cells. These results suggest that the growth of the implanted “lean” islets is due to extrapancreatic factors which stimulate islet cell replication in the obese-hyperglycaemic mouse.

    Notes: Summary Mice treated for 4 days with tolbutamide displayed decreased serum glucose values with a concomitant decrease of their islet insulin content. Mouse islets cultured for 1 week at a low (3 mM) or a high (28 mM) glucose concentration contained less insulin than non-cultured islets and islets cultured at a medium (11 mM) glucose concentration. All groups of cultured islets contained more glucagon than non-cultured islets. The somatostatin content of high- and medium-glucose cultured islets was higher than that of freshly isolated islets.

    Notes: Abstract In this paper, the measuring methods of the rotational components, i. e. the free angular velocity and the moment mobility are presented. The performance of a moment actuator composed of two magnetostrictive rods (Tb0.3 Dy0.7 Fe1.95) is discussed. Both theory and experiment show that the performance of the moment actuator does not influence the measurement results of the moment mobilities basically but affects the efficiency for exciting rotation. The efficiency for exciting rotation has also been calculated.

    Notes: Abstract The inclusive two-particle cross section for the production of largep T photons and opposite side charged hadrons in proton-proton collisions is examined in detail in the framework of QCD. The model, with the parametrization as in our previous work, agrees with the measured single photon spectra. Quantitative predictions are made for two-particle distributions to be measured at the ISR. The contributions due to the photon bremsstrahlung and the effects coming from the intrinsic constituent motion are estimated. It is shown that indeed the direct subprocess gluon+quark→photon+quark gives the dominant contribution in the experimentally relevant region of phase space, and that direct information about the gluon structure function can be obtained from such measurements.

    Notes: Abstract Production of single mesons and opposite side pairs of mesons in hadron-nucleus and nucleusnucleus collisions are calculated in the framework of the QCD parton model, with the assumption that quarks and gluons undergo multiple scattering in the nucleus. A comparison with all available data is made. It is also shown that the anomalous nuclear enhancement, especially its dependence on the flavour, can be quantitatively described within the model. Furthermore, we predict no enhancement for symmetric pairs as it seems to be indicated by the data. Predictions for largep T production in α−α scattering at ISR are made.

    Notes: Abstract: We present an investigation of the 2D attractive Hubbard model, considered as an effective model relevant to superconductivity in strongly interacting electron systems. We use both hybrid Monte-Carlo simulations and existing hopping parameter expansions to explore the low temperature domain. The increase of the static S-wave pair correlation with decreasing temperature, which depends weakly on the band filling in the explored temperature range, is analyzed in terms of an expected Kosterlitz-Thouless superconducting transition. Using both our data and previously published results, we show that the evidence for this transition is weak: If it exists, its temperature is very low. The number of unpaired electrons remains nearly constant with temperature at fixed attractive potential strength. In contrast, the static magnetic susceptibility decreases fast with temperature, and cannot be related only to pair formation. We introduce a method by which the Padé approximants of the existing series for the susceptibility give sensible results down to rather low temperature region, as shown by comparison with our numerical data.
