    Description: It is well known that Sweden once had a state institute for racial biology, as well as that extensive racial research was conducted in Sweden during the first decades of the 20th century. But what actually happened to Swedish race research after the 1930s - did it just disappear? In The science that disappeared? historian Martin Ericsson conducts the first systematic survey of Swedish race research from the mid-1930s to the early 1970s. It is a story of a racial science that survived the horrors of World War II and endured longer than we might like to believe as criticism grew in the post-war period. And about the Norwegian Institute for Racial Biology, which was never shut down, but lived on in a different form and under a different name. Ericsson shows that there was not a single Swedish racial research tradition, but two. One was based on the first director of the Institute of Racial Biology, Herman Lundborg, and had clear connections to Nazism and other extreme right-wing movements. The second can be said to be based on Lundborg's successor Gunnar Dahlberg and was instead anti-Nazi and in some cases even anti-racist. But both traditions agreed that there were different human races and that it made sense to try to measure differences between them. By following the Swedish race research until the end of the 20th century, the book also raises important questions about our own time and its interest in ""origin"" and ""descent"". How fundamentally different are today's dna analyzes from the old racial research traditions? What if we risk asking the same questions as 1930s racial biology stuck with new techniques?

    Notes: Summary Cardiac extraction, oxidation and release of plasma free fatty acids (FFA) was measured by coronary sinus catheterization, utilizing infusions of 3H palmitate and 14C oleate, in patients with ischaemic heart disease (IHD) at rest and during pacing induced angina pectoris and, for comparison, in healthy men of similar and younger age and men with hypertriglyceridaemia (HTG). At rest IHD patients differed from healthy men only by greater cardiac fatty acid release, which correlated with a significant glycerol release. In IHD patients, unlike in healthy men, myocardial extraction of both palmitate and oleate decreased while fractional oxidation of oleate increased during pacing. Fatty acid release was unaltered. Men with HTG had at rest higher myocardial FFA extraction than IHD patients, which did not decrease during pacing, but like in the patients oleate fractional oxidation increased on pacing. It is concluded that, in the moderately ischaemic human heart, the restricted blood flow may contribute to limit the fatty acid flux into the myocardium. The augmented cardiac fatty acid release in IHD patients is not related to ischaemia perse but may derive from an increased amount of cardiac interstitial fat.
