The subject of Funds Transfer Pricing (FTP) is widely known within the banking in- dustry, despite this there is a lack of consensus on how to allocate the costs and benets to the users and suppliers of liquidity. A common practice in nancial institutions, in particular before the nancial crisis, was to charge business units a liquidity charge that was based on the average or the historic cost of
Despite incredible progress in cancer treatment, therapy resistance remains the leading limiting factor for long-term survival. During drug treatment, several genes are transcriptionally upregulated to mediate drug tolerance. Using highly variable genes and pharmacogenomic data for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), we developed a drug sensitivity prediction model for the receptor tyrosine kinase inhib
Dynamic glucose enhanced (DGE) chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) MRI is an emerging imaging technique that provides a molecular-specific type of image contrast, based on magnetic labelling of exchangeable protons. The technique enables the use of biodegradable sugars as contrast agents, and such compounds are believed to have less side effects than conventional MRI contrast agents.

Exposure to ambient air pollution can cause a numberof health problems and may be particularly dangerous to susceptible population groups such as children. Health effects caused by air pollution are criticallydependent on both the deposited fraction (DF) of the inhaled particles and in what region of the respiratory tract the deposition takes place. With increasing physical activity, the breathing
Background: Airspace Dimensions Assessment with nanoparticles (AiDA) is a new method for non-invasive measurement of pulmonary distal airspaces. The aim of this study was to compare AiDA measurements with other pulmonary function variables to better understand the potential of AiDA in a clinical context. Methods: AiDA measurements and pulmonary function tests were performed in 695 subjects as part
The aim of this work is to investigate the presence of airborne SARS-CoV-2 in corridors of infection wards, and gain more detailed size information of SARS-CoV-2-containing aerosols. Associations between SARS-CoV-2 presence and relative humidity and/or temperature in the facilities is also explored.
The focus of this thesis is an idea named “brukarforum”, a form of collective user participation in residential care. The main purpose of the study is to gain deeper knowledge about “brukarforum” as an idea and its process of institutionalization, i.e. to study whether, and if so in what way, the idea “brukarforum” has become a regular activity in the local practice within the Swedish National
Reconciliation research consists of two practices, one focusing on the emotional and healing aspects of the process and another that focus on the political and legal actions. Yeudith Auerbach created a theory, the reconciliation pyramid, which aims to manage both aspects. The purpose of this thesis is to apply Auerbach's theory to the reconciliation process in two empirical cases, the Rwandan
This study investigated how AI support timing impacts clinicians’ diagnostic accuracy and efficiency during simulated psychiatric assessment using TalkToAlba, a clinical conversational AI platform. Professionals with experience in mental health (N = 51) were randomized into three conditions: control/delayed (no initial AI), retroactive (AI post-interview), or proactive (AI pre- and post-interview)
