The aim of this study was to analyse the relationship between different biometric parameters and sapflow and growth, respectively, in order to assess their potential for use in scaling. The effect of thinning on these relationships was also investigated. The studied stand consisted of Scots pine (ca. 60%), Norway spruce (ca. 35%) and downy birch (ca. 5%). Sapflow was measured by the tissue heat-ba

ObjectiveTo investigate the prediction of preeclampsia and gestational hypertension using maternal characteristics, mean arterial pressure (MAP), uterine artery pulsatility index (UtAPI), pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) and placental growth factor (PlGF) at gestational weeks 11-13 in a Scandinavian population with a medium to high prior risk for developing hypertensive disorders of

The importance of carbohydrates in biological systems has become evident during the last fifty years. It is well known that pathogenic bacteria and viruses attach to glycoconjugates present at mammalian cell surfaces, and that this attachment is a prerequisite for the later stages of infection. Obviously, this interaction is interesting as a target for the development of novel ways to treat bacter

Background The prognosis in adults with congenital aortic valve disease is usually favourable; nevertheless, a number of medical and social factors might hamper long-term prognosis and quality of life. With a focus on physical exercise level, data from the Swedish National Registry on Congenital Heart Disease (SWEDCON) were analysed and variables associated with health-related quality of life in a

Background Due to improved care, the numbers of patients with tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) are increasing. However, long-term morbidity and need for reinterventions are concerns and also address issues of quality of life (QoL). Methods Patients with ToF and valid EuroQol-5 dimensions questionnaire (EQ-5D) were identified in the national Swedish register on congenital heart disease. EQ-5D index was ca

Kan man spåra framtida läkemedel i kroppen med radioaktivt fluor? Hur fungerar egentligen olika läkemedel? De allra flesta kanske inte bryr sig, så länge det lindrar din huvudvärk eller tar hand om din infektion. Men när man ska ta fram nya läkemedel måste man tyvärr vara lite mer noggrann än så. Eftersom kostnaden för att gå från en flaska på kemilabbet till en burk på apoteket ofta är miljardbelGalectin-3 is a soluble protein in the body that has been shown involvement in biological processes such as tumour growth and metastasis as well as auto immune disease. Molecules developed by Ulf Nilsson’s research group have shown inhibitory effect in in vitro and in vivo studies towards galecin-3 but to get detailed information about distribution in vivo studies using PET should be performed. Pr

The essence of cloud computing is about moving workloads from your local IT infrastructure to a data center that scales and provides resources at a moments notice. Using a pay-as-you-go model to rent virtual infrastructure is also known as a Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) offering. This helps consumers provision hardware on-demand without the need for physical infrastructure and the challenges

Bostik AB has long had a production where parts of the production are done manually. These parts include that an employee needs to lift a rubber pulp from a conveyor belt, twist and put the rubber pulp into a pallet. The employee should then put on a plastic patch between each layer. This process can in the long run be unhealthy for the employees who will carry out the movement because repeated li

T cell-exosomer som biomarkör vid Typ 1-Diabetes Typ 1-diabetes (T1D) är en autoimmun sjukdom, där kroppens T-celler (immunceller) angriper bukspottskörtelns insulinproducerande betaceller. Insulin är ett viktigt hormon, som reglerar blodsockerhalten i kroppen. Destruktion av betacellerna leder till nedsatt insulinproduktion och därmed höga blodsockerhalter, som följaktligen leder till andra kompType 1 diabetes, also known as juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes, is a growing and serious health problem worldwide with highest incidence in developed countries and among children. It is a T cell-mediated autoimmune disease, characterized by destruction of β-cells of the pancreatic islets of Langerhans, resulting in deficient insulin secretion and hyperglycemia. The cause of the dis

Avkastningsbaserad gräsrotsfinansiering är en kapitalanskaffningsmetod där små- och nystartade privata aktiebolag via en internetbaserad plattform tar in kapital från många mindre investerare, som i gengäld förvärvar aktier i bolaget. Gräsrotsfinansiering är en effektiv metod, men efter genomförd finansiering är det lilla privata aktiebolaget oftast behäftat med en stor aktieägarkrets, någon som kEquity crowdfunding is when a limited liability company raises capital from a large number of investors whom in return acquire shares in the company. Companies utilize equity crowdfunding to secure funds at an early stage. Equity crowdfunding will however alter the ownership structure of the company to a diversified ownership. In order to maintain its efficiency the company must retain the decisiv

I detta examensarbete undersöktes olika strategier för att kontrollera upptag av produkter från kromatografisk separation. Prestandan för dessa strategier jämfördes även med en nyutvecklad strategi vars kontrollbeslut baserades på förutsägelser. Att utveckla nya läkemedel är en kostsam process samtidigt som bara 15-30% av de produkter som utvecklas blir godkända för lansering. Detta medför höga kComputer simulation and modelling was used to simulate a real time environment in preparative chromatography to evaluate the performance of three different strategies for pooling control for different levels of robustness. The pooling problem was based around a separation case where three different insulin species were to be separated while disturbances to the modulators potassium chloride, ethano

The main monitoring method during labor is cardiotocography, CTG, which measures the fetal heartbeat, FHR, as well as the uterine contractions, TOCO. The CTG is a valuable tool in assessing the fetal status and it is evaluated intermittently by clinicians during the progress of the labor. However, abnormalities in the CTG are often non-specific which makes the interpretation difficult and inconsis

The crime of gross violation of a woman’s integrity is based on the fact that criminal acts committed by a man against a woman to whom he is, or has been, married or with whom he is, or has been cohabiting under circumstances similar to marriage, are to be assessed more seriously if each of the acts was part of a repeated violation of the person’s integrity and the acts were liable to severely dam
