A thoracic phantom, with embedded fragments of uranium (U) and iron (Fe) of different sizes, was imaged with digital radiography, standard-dose CT and low-dose CT and the detectable size of the fragments was recorded. U and Fe fragments were detected in diameters down to 100 mu m and 300 mu m, respectively with the standard-dose CT and digital radiography. The size limit using the low-dose CT was

This paper is intended to give an overview of the current work of the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) within the field of medicine and healthcare. The paper focuses on the work carried out in Committee 3. Some views expressed at the ICRP Seminar in Bethesda, USA in October 2011 will also be discussed. Similar and complementary work by other organisatons will also be brie

T cells are key cellular components of the adaptive immune system that play a critical role in our defense against pathogens and cancer but also contribute to pathology in the setting of chronic inflammation and autoimmunity. The thymus constitutes the body's major T cell production site, where bone marrow-derived progenitors migrate in a co-ordinated fashion through anatomically distinct cortical

Radiochromic film, polymer gel and radiochromic plastic are three different kinds of dosimeters developed for radiation therapy and suitable for optical readout. In this study, different optical CT scanners are used to scan the dosimeters to find out if they could be used as multi-purpose scanners, i.e. for readout of the different kinds of dosimeters. Promising results are found but further devel

The purpose of this study is to investigate how people express religious and national identities in the conflict-ridden Patani region of southern Thailand. In a historical framework of disputes over territory and political legitimacy, where identities have developed in response to an emerging Thai nation, it is of relevance to understand the dynamics of these identities and to disclose how local p

By breeding TRAMP mice with S100A9 knock-out (S100A9(-/-)) animals and scoring the appearance of palpable tumors we observed a delayed tumor growth in animals devoid of S100A9 expression. CD11b(+) S100A9 expressing cells were not observed in normal prostate tissue from control C57BL/6 mice but were readily detected in TRAMP prostate tumors. Also, S100A9 expression was observed in association with

Since type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients with nephropathy (DN+) are insulin-resistant, we aimed to identify (new) potential molecular sites involved in the alterations of glucose metabolism in these patients. We examined the expression of glycolytic enzymes in cultured fibroblasts from T1DM(DN+) patients as compared to those from T1DM patients without nephropathy (DN-) and from controls. Pyr

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Då man för ner en elektrisk ström i marken kommer vissa material i marken laddas upp p.g.a. att positiva och negativa joner samlar ihop sig på ytor och i trånga porkanaler. Detta kallas för polarisering och kan användas för att bestämma t.ex. vad för typ av geologiska material som finns under markytan eller vart föroreningar i marken tar vägen. Fenomenet som uppIt has been shown that surveys of Induced polarization (IP) often contain data of low quality, because it is highly sensitive against different noise sources. When measuring induced polarization, where the method uses multicore cables and continuous electrode sounding (CVES, Continuous Vertical Electrical Sounding), noise phenomena such as capacitive coupling effects have to be considered. It is p

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Sedimentära facies och fauna från den sensiluriska Bjärsjölagårdkalkstenen i Skåne. Under den sena delen av silurperioden, för ca 420 miljoner år sedan, låg Sverige söder om ekvatorn och Skåne var täckt av ett grunt, varmt hav. I det här havet, den så kallade Baltiska bassängen, bildades sediment som vi idag återfinner bl.a. i ett gammalt övergivet kalkbrott i BThe late Ludlow Bjärsjölagård Limestone Member comprises a part of the Klinta Formation of the Öved-Ramsåsa Group in Skåne, southern Sweden. The ~25 m thick member was formed during the time of the globally known Lau Event and a major sea-level lowstand in the Baltic Basin. This study describes the sedimentary rocks, and their fossil fauna, of the Bjärsjölagård Limestone Member exposed in the Bjär

Originating in the Treaty of Rome, the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is the European Union’s largest and first supranational policy, well-known for its high cost, trade distorting effects and its reluctance to change. Despite being subject to three major reform attempts during 1992-2003 many of the original defects still remain. The aim of this thesis is to examine how far reaching the CAP refo

Bladder cancer is the ninth most common type of cancer globally, and the projected number of deaths is estimated to almost double by the year 2040. Immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors has revolutionized treatment of bladder cancer and can achieve durable responses; however, only a minority of patients respond. By identifying additional targets and treatment combinations, more patients could b

This study investigates the integration of Large Language Models with the TRIZ to improve problem solving and innovation in industrial product development. By combining the structured problem-solving framework of TRIZ with LLMs to process large amounts of data and generate ideas, this hybrid approach seeks to overcome the limitations of traditional TRIZ and optimize solution generation. In a case

Denna uppsats behandlar fattigdomsbekämpning utifrån svensk biståndspolitik. Bi-ståndsgivning har länge varit en självklar del i både internationell och svensk politik, ändå har inga större framgångar skett med att utrota fattigdom. Syftet med uppsatsen är att utvärdera Sveriges politik om bistånd genom det senast utgivna dokumentet om bi-ståndspolitik – Biståndspolitisk plattform – utgiven av regThis essay concern poverty alleviation through Swedish aid policy. Giving aid has been an evident part of both international and Swedish policy for a long time, yet there has been no great success with eradicating poverty. The purpose is to evaluate Sweden’s aid policy through its most recently published document on aid policy, which the govern-ment published in March 2014. The document will be an

This research aims to explore how consumption impacts on the construction of affiliation boundaries within heterogeneous consumption-oriented subcultures. In order to accomplish this purpose, we have studied the growing phenomenon of barefoot running in relation to the consumption of minimalist footwear as a symbolic product. By doing so, we have explored how consumption vertebrates the subculture

I ett entreprenadavtal regleras det normalt huruvida det är beställaren eller entreprenören som ska bära ansvaret för att en entreprenad försenats. En situation som mer sällan regleras är vem av parterna som ska bära risken om det föreligger konkurrerande förseningsorsaker. Avsikten med förevarande framställning är därför att analysera hur en domstol skulle bedöma en entreprenörs krav på tidsförläNormally, the contract governing a construction project regulates whether the contractor or the employer shall bear the risk of a delay. Nevertheless, the parties rarely include in their contract provisions how liability for concurrent delays should be dealt with. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis is to examine how the Swedish courts would treat claims from a contractor for an extension of tim
