This statement examines the relation of the resting ECG to its technology. Its purpose is to foster understanding of how the modern ECG is derived and displayed and to establish standards that will improve the accuracy and usefulness of the ECG in practice. Derivation of representative waveforms and measurements based on global intervals are described. Special emphasis is placed on digital signal

Resolving fungal and bacterial groups within the microbial decomposer community is thought to capture disparate life strategies for soil microbial decomposers, associating bacteria with an r-selected strategy for carbon (C) and nutrient use, and fungi with a K-selected strategy. Additionally, food-web model-based work has established a widely held belief that the bacterial decomposer pathway in so
When selection on males and females differs, the sexes may diverge in phenotype. Hormones serve as a proximate regulator of sex differences by mediating sex-biased trait expression. To integrate these perspectives, we consider how suites of traits mediated by the same hormone in both sexes might respond to selection. In male birds, plasma testosterone (T) varies seasonally and among species accord
Satellite galaxies on bound orbits around the Milky Way (MW) are constantly subject to tidal forces from the MW. If the tidal forces are large enough, they may strip the outermost stars of the satellite, that in turn distribute themselves in long elongated stellar streams. These stellar streams are good probes of the Galactic potential due to the constraints they place on the structure of the pote
Authors: Emelie Stagge and Malin Sandung Title: Like living in a parallell universe: A study of the experience of depression from a client perspective [translated title] Supervisor: Karin Kullberg Mental illness is one of the most expansive and contemporary social problems. Depression, as part of mental illness, is one of the most prevailing public health problem. Even though the amount of people
Abstract The media sometimes give a dark image of Swedish elderly care. Responsibility for the care of the elderly is put on the managers. Apart from budget matters, they are responsible for staff as well as care-takers. The aim of this study was to examine the manager role at homes for the elderly from the point of view of the managers themselves. The material consists of six semi – structured in
Today can’t all citizens get job. Some people can’t get a job for their ethnic, homosexuality, handicapped background is wrong. Many municipalities want to increase the quantity of people with ethnic background, sexuality and handicapped in their organization so they can get a job. This essay contains eight interviews with people who work after documents from the politicians. The staff works wi
Cormac McCarthy's The Road takes place not before or during but after the end. The novel follows a man and his son as they seek to survive in what remains of the world after some unspecified cataclysmic event. There is almost nothing left: no society, no food, no animals, no hope. Many readers will feel that the question the novel poses is why anyone would wish to continue living under such circum
This qualitative study is about the individual supportive conversation with the school welfare officer in upper secondary school. The main aim of the study was to find out what the pupils get out of a series of conversations with the school welfare officer and what it means for the pupils that the welfare officer belongs to the school organization. Six qualitative interviews were held with pupils
Breast cancer has a profound affect on society. The survival for women in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is poor compared to in high-income countries (HICs). The lack of timely diagnosis is one of the main factors contributing to the poor outcomes for women in LMICs. Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) combined with a deep learning (DL) classification network could potentially be a suitable
Sound event localization and detection (SELD) systems using audio recordings from a microphone array rely on spatial cues for determining the location of sound events. As a consequence, the localization performance of such systems is to a large extent determined by the quality of the audio features that are used as inputs to the system. We propose a new feature, based on neural generalized cross-c
In the following study, using highly-developed remote sensing methodologies, a historical over-ten-year study of the LULC phenomenon of the Khorezm Oasis was conducted. The analysis provides valuable insights about agricultural change, water management policies and the alteration of LULC in the region, including several processes, changes in plants and irrigation levels, population density and gro
This article examines how university students assess the coordination of the courses their programmes contain and how course coordination affects how content they are with their studies. The study is based on survey data from more than 5700 students, collected through Lund University’s Student Barometer. The survey examines the students’ views on course coordination based on content, workload, adm
This paper discussed construction industry’s ongoing battle with gender equality. Growing awareness of social sustainability responsibility has led to the mounting importance of human resources in the organisations. One perspective involves the focus on gender equality. Today women’s participation in the construction industry is still low except in times of acute labour shortages. This disproporti
Recent advances in stroke treatment have provided effective tools to successfully treat ischemic stroke, but still a majority of patients are not treated due to late arrival to hospital. With modern stroke treatment, earlier arrival would greatly improve the overall treatment results. This prospective study was performed to asses the capability of bilateral accelerometers worn in bracelets 24/7 to
In modern high energy physics (HEP) experiments, triggers perform the important task of selecting, in real time, the data to be recorded and saved for physics analyses. As a result, trigger strategies play a key role in extracting relevant information from the vast streams of data produced at facilities like the large hadron collider (LHC). As the energy and luminosity of the collisions increase,
