Microscopic colitis (MC) often debuts around or after menopause and is divided into lymphocytic- and collagenous colitis. The aim of this study was to examine whether factors influencing sex hormone levels differed between subgroups of MC as well as between patients and controls. A self-administered questionnaire about parity was completed which included questions surrounding age at first childbir
We compare LDPC block and LDPC convolutional codes with respect to their decoding performance under low decoding latencies. Protograph based regular LDPC codes are considered with rather small lifting factors. LDPC block and convolutional codes are decoded using belief propagation. For LDPC convolutional codes, a sliding window decoder with different window sizes is applied to continuously decode
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified 12 epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) susceptibility alleles. The pattern of association at these loci is consistent in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers who are at high risk of EOC. After imputation to 1000 Genomes Project data, we assessed associations of 11 million genetic variants with EOC risk from 15,437 cases unselected for family history
Amphiphilic graft copolymers were prepared via the radical copolymerization of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) macromonomers with fluorocarbon or hydrocarbon acrylates in toluene with 2,2 ' -azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as an initiator. H-1 NMR spectroscopy confirmed that the composition of the graft copolymers corresponded well to the monomer feed. For gel electrolytes prepared from the amphiphilic c
Many patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) experiencing L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID) receive adjunct treatment with dopamine agonists, whose functional impact on LID is unknown. We set out to compare temporal and topographic profiles of abnormal involuntary movements (AIMs) after L-DOPA dose challenges including or not the dopamine agonist ropinirole. Twenty-five patients with PD and a history
The production cross-sections for W± and Z bosons are measured using ATLAS data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.0 pb- 1 collected at a centre-of-mass energy s=2.76 TeV. The decay channels W→ ℓν and Z→ ℓℓ are used, where ℓ can be an electron or a muon. The cross-sections are presented for a fiducial region defined by the detector acceptance and are also extrapolated to the full phase
Flaxseed has recently gained attention as a functional food, and the effect of adding flaxseed (10%, 15%, and 20%) to tortillas was evaluated. The physicochemical characteristics and the free fatty-acid (FFA) content of the oil extracted from flaxseed-added corn tortilla were determined. The results showed that the lipid (4.27%) and protein content (9.10%) of the control sample was statistically l
This paper explores how three cognitive and perceptual cues, vocal iconicity, resemblance-based mappings between form and meaning, and segment position and lexical stress, interact to affect word formation and language processing. The study combines an analysis of the word-internal positions that iconic segments occur in based on data from 245 language families with an experimental study in which
Chatbots are increasingly being adapted as substitutes to humans in customer service. As the level of adoption increases, it becomes more important to understand the phenomenon of robots replacing humans – a new chapter in the rising digital world. Earlier research has explored and aroused criticism against the trend of automation and digitalization, urging companies to move towards a more customeAbstract Title: ”Is this what you mean? – No, it really isn't!” – An analysis of consumers' dissatisfaction in encounters with chatbots in customer service Seminar date: January 10th, 2024 Course: FEKH29, Business Administration: Bachelor Degree Project in Marketing Undergraduate Level, 15 ECTS-credits Authors: Emma Axelsson, Annie Bolmgren and Julia Krusell Advisor: Sofia Ulver Keywords:
I dag är det allt vanligare att en person döms för ett flertal brott vid samma åtalstillfälle. När denna typ av flerfaldig brottslighet inträder i domstolen ska ett gemensamt straff för den samlade brottsligheten utdömas. För att avgöra hur omfattande detta straff ska vara, måste domstolen fastställa den flerfaldiga brottslighetens gemensamma straffvärde. Detta sker genom att en andel av den efterIt is increasingly common today for individuals to be convicted of multiple offences within the same trial. When such instances of multiple criminality are brought before the court, a joint sentence for the aggregate criminal conduct must be imposed. To determine the scope of this sentence, the court must establish the overall punitive value of the combined offences. This is done by incorporating
The purpose with this master's thesis has been to develop a new generation of fencing gear, creating new opportunities in usage and functions to meet future needs within fencing as a sport. The projects main focus areas: * Increasing the popularity of fencing * The development of fencing equipment * The future demands on fencing as a sport The project resulted in a further development of exist

Rules on how to record information in Ladok are determined by national directives, such as the Higher Education Ordinance, and by local regulations in the form of decisions by the vice-chancellor. The information in Ladok is used in University performance reports, as well as in reports to Statistics Sweden (Statistiska centralbyrån), CSN (the national board of student finance), and The Swedish Mig
