This thesis focuses on the development and testing of electrocardiographic (ECG) methods to diagnose and characterize myocardial ischemia, infarction and fibrosis (scar). The goal is to provide improved decision support to physicians regarding the optimal selection of patients for two costly, invasive therapies – percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for patients with acute myocardial infarctio

Background To investigate potential cardiovascular and other effects of long-term pharmacological interleukin 1 (IL-1) inhibition, we studied genetic variants that produce inhibition of IL-1, a master regulator of inflammation. Methods We created a genetic score combining the effects of alleles of two common variants (rs6743376 and rs1542176) that are located upstream of IL1RN, the gene encoding t

Bacteria in drinking water distribution systems have aroused considerable attention due to the potential public health risks. Drinking water presents a low-nutrient environment in which various bacterial populations proliferate. Water treatment plants are designed and operated to produce safe drinking water and to protect the drinking water from microbial contamination. To ensure the safety of the

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia globally and is characterized by uncoordinated atrial activation and ineffective atrial contraction. Atrial fibrillation is associated with an impaired quality of life and an increased risk of stroke, heart failure, and death. Changes in the autonomic nervous system (ANS) control of cardiac function are a known pathophysiological mechanism in

Background. Persistent intolerable pain is still an unsolved issue with a huge socioeconomic impact. To develop appropriate treatments, it is crucial to understand the complex mechanisms underlying pain and how they change during sustained pain stimuli or during pathological conditions. In particular, it is essential to clarify how the endogenous analgesic centres which are present in the brain, s

BACKGROUND: Epidemiological studies have demonstrated an association between the degree of food processing in our diet and the risk of various chronic diseases. Much of this evidence is based on the international Nova classification system, which classifies food into four groups based on the type of processing: (1) Unprocessed and minimally processed foods, (2) Processed culinary ingredients, (3)

Abstract This is a diploma work in industrial design by Fredrik Hyltén-Cavallius. In this project my goal was to find a product that could make the ancient fire fit better into our modern homes. I started out by looking at fire related products such as stoves and barbecues on the Swedish market. Through several interviews I also looked more closely into a couple of heat related technologies such a

This thesis consists of two parts. In the rst part, the iterative data-adaptive BIAA spectral estimation technique was extended to estimate lateral blood velocities using ultrasound scanners. The BIAA method makes no assumption on samples depth or sampling pattern, and therefore allows for transmission in duplex mode imaging. The technique was examined on a realistic Field II simulation data set,

This study utilizes a panel data of 69 developing and developed countries to analyze the impacts of Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) on the innovation outcomes of the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sector. The panel analysis is assisted with detailed observations on successful cases that have achieved impressive innovation outcomes over the years, in or

I have long been fascinated by the St. Pauli cemeteries in Malmö and how they relate to the city itself. A large residential area, Norra Sorgenfri, is currently being built around the cemeteries. As the city’s population density increases, more people use these cemeteries as their nearest green space. The work examines the possibilities for developing the use of St. Pauli cemeteries, as the city g

Public transport is vital for the functioning of cities and necessary in reaching environmental goals. In the population dense county, Skåne, prices for public transport increased with an all-time high of up to 11 procent in 2023, affecting 250 000 travelers a day. To investigate how price changes affect demand for public bus transport in the Swedish south, a time series regression analysis for 20
