Fifty mosaic nail-fold images of healthy controls (n = 10), patients with primary RP (n = 10) and SSc (n = 30) were assessed in random order by two blinded observers on two occasions at centres in Sweden, UK and The N
Databehandling av signaler från millimetervågsradar i realtid Radarsensorer som använder millimetervågor är väldigt användbara inom avkänningsteknik, som har tillämpningar inom bland annat sjukvården, autonoma robotar, osv. Detta examensarbete bygger vidare på en genomförbarhetsstudie som med positiva resultat undersökte om det var möjligt att med hjälp av elektronik och algoritmer förhindra fallBased on the feasibility study [4], the goal of this master thesis is to compile custom firmware for the XM112 Pulsed Coherent Radar Module, which features a state of the art radar sensor integrated with a microcontroller unit (MCU). This allows the use of custom firmware to check the plausibility of real-time data processing on the radar signals and will lay some of the groundwork for further dev
This thesis is an empirical study of how positioning is achieved in interactional Swedish. Positioning has previously been described in terms of epistemic modality, interpersonal positioning, stanceand speech act adverbials. The aims of the study are, firstly, to identify what linguistic resources are used to achieve positioning in interaction. A second aim is to describe where in the turn-con
Den farliga bakterien som förorenar vår mat och gör oss sjuka Listeria monocytogenes, även vardagligt kallad endast listeria, är en bakterie som trivs och växer i miljöer där många andra bakterier inte kan växa. Listeria orsakar sjukdomen listerios, som är ganska ovanlig, men har en dödlighet på ca 20 – 30 %. Sjukdomen har på senare år blivit allt mer vanlig i Sverige. Som tur är finns det olika In this study the dangers of Listeria monocytogenes presence in food and the problem it creates for general food safety is presented. The aim of this study was to highlight the importance of food safety, especially when it concerns Listeria monocytogenes. The study should also give an insight to the part that Listeria monocytogenes plays among food and the risks that follows. Furthermore, it wil
När nazistiska Nordiska motståndsrörelsen demonstrerade i Göteborg 30 september 2017 skapade det livlig debatt i media om rasistiska partiers rättigheter. Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att vidga perspektivet på diskussionen i Sverige genom att undersöka hur stater kan bekämpa rasistiska partier utifrån idén om militant demokrati. Uppsatsen redogör för konceptet militant demokrati och undersöker On the 30th of September 2017 the Swedish Nazi party Nordiska motståndsrörelsen had a permit to demonstrate in the streets of Gothenburg. This was followed by a heated debate in the media on the rights of these kind of parties. The purpose of this essay is to add a wider perspective on the discussion in Sweden by examining how states can combat racist parties on the basis of militant democracy. Th
Hur kan biologisk mångfald gynnas i en företagspark? Hur ska både människor och natur få plats i en alltmer urbaniserad värld? Kunskapen om hur biologisk mångfald påverkas av byggnadsprojekt behöver öka, samtidigt som stadens gröna områden behöver stödjas och utvecklas för att gynna fler arter. I mitt examensarbete har jag undersökt förutsättningarna för fåglar och pollinerande insekter i företagUrbanization is causing impact on biodiversity and ecosystem services globally, due to disturbance, fragmentation and loss of habitats as the proportion of urban settlement increases. Actions for enhancement of biodiversity in urban spaces become important to achieve a sustainable urbanization. Wihlborgs Fastigheter AB, a housing company in the Öresund Region, has installed eleven nest boxes for b

BACKGROUND: Cerebral dopamine neurotrophic factor (CDNF) is an unconventional neurotrophic factor that protects dopamine neurons and improves motor function in animal models of Parkinson's disease (PD).OBJECTIVE: The primary objectives of this study were to assess the safety and tolerability of both CDNF and the drug delivery system (DDS) in patients with PD of moderate severity.METHODS: We assess
Phosphoryl transfer plays key roles in signaling, energy transduction, protein synthesis, and maintaining the integrity of the genetic material. On the surface, it would appear to be a simple nucleophile displacement reaction. However, this simplicity is deceptive, as, even in aqueous solution, the low-lying d-orbitals on the phosphorus atom allow for eight distinct mechanistic possibilities, befo
At a geological time-scale, seas rise aloft and mountains crumble. We are currently in the middle of a debate on whether—in order to acknowledge the pervasive and geologically significant traces of human action on the planet—our present era should be labelled the “Anthropocene”, and if so, what would be the cut-off date for the commencement of that era. At the same moment, we are already contempla
Objective: Fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair (FEVAR) is a well established treatment for complex abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). FEVAR with custom made devices (CMDs) has limitations in both the emergency and elective settings due to time consuming manufacture. “Off the shelf” (OTS) fenestrated stent grafts are a potential solution. The primary goal was to evaluate the five year outcome
Land management for carbon storage is discussed as being indispensable for climate change mitigation because of its large potential to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and to avoid further emissions from deforestation. However, the acceptance and feasibility of land-based mitigation projects depends on potential side effects on other important ecosystem functions and their services. Here
Ekosystemen i vår värld förändras av naturliga krafter, som i sin tur påverkas av mänskliga aktiviteter. För att förstå och beräkna effekterna av klimatförändringar och mänsklig förvaltning på våra ekosystem har behovet av instrument för att övervaka och förutsäga jordsystemet ökat. Dynamiska globala vegetations modeller är matematiska modeller som tillåter en processbaserad beskrivning av växtsamDynamic global vegetation models are mathematical models that provide a bottom-up description of plant communities. They explicitly model physiological and population-level processes such as growth, photosynthesis, carbon allocation, regeneration and mortality.However, there are a number of challenges to meet in the context of mechanistic vegetation models which can be extrapolated to new environm
In this thesis, I study representations of summer and winter Olympic Games and Olympic athletes in six Swedish popular magazines 1948-1972. The purpose is to examine the forms of identity produced within the nation as an “imagined community”, in discursive processes where gender, sexuality, ”race”/ ethnicity, class and age/generation intersect and mutually construct each other. The study is inspir
Background: Denmark and Sweden are considered to be countries of rather similar socio-political type, but public health policies and smoking habits differ considerably between the two neighbours. A study comparing mechanisms behind socioeconomic inequalities in tobacco smoking, could yield information regarding the impact of health policy and -promotion in the two countries. Methods: Cross-section
Real-time rendering is increasingly being performed on battery powered devices, such as laptops and mobile phones. As a result, performance in rendering time is not the only important factor, but the energy consumption is also becoming more and more important, as a lower energy usage directly translates to longer battery time. The main topic of this thesis is energy consumption of graphics process
Testing ofIntegrated Circuits is important to ensure the production offault-free chips. However, testing is becoming cumbersome andexpensive due to the increasing complexity of these ICs. Technologydevelopment has made it possible to produce chips where a completesystem, with an enormous transistor count, operating at a highclock frequency, is placed on a single die - SOC (System-on-Chip).The devi
In this exam paper the question of the meaning of 1 Cor 7:36-38 is addressed, a passage containing one case in which marriage is recommended and one in which it is not. To answer the question linguistic, literary and historical analyses are performed within the framework of an evaluation of eight proposed interpretations of the passage. In the first interpretation, labeled (A), the unspecified mal
