Background The prognosis in adults with congenital aortic valve disease is usually favourable; nevertheless, a number of medical and social factors might hamper long-term prognosis and quality of life. With a focus on physical exercise level, data from the Swedish National Registry on Congenital Heart Disease (SWEDCON) were analysed and variables associated with health-related quality of life in a

The importance of carbohydrates in biological systems has become evident during the last fifty years. It is well known that pathogenic bacteria and viruses attach to glycoconjugates present at mammalian cell surfaces, and that this attachment is a prerequisite for the later stages of infection. Obviously, this interaction is interesting as a target for the development of novel ways to treat bacter

Context. Tidal orbital decay is suspected to occur for hot Jupiters in particular, with the only observationally confirmed case of this being WASP-12 b. By examining this effect, information on the properties of the host star can be obtained using the so-called stellar modified tidal quality factor Q′∗, which describes the efficiency with which the kinetic energy of the planet is dissipated within

The purpose of this review is to evaluate effective distraction techniques that could be applicable to preschool children in the radiology department. Databases used for search were MEDLINE and CINAHL. Due to a lack of literature on distraction techniques in the radiology setting, studies included were from auxiliary health care practices. Results in less invasive interventions were positive when

This thesis aims to investigate the automatic tuning of hardware parameters in a camera's image processing pipeline. In order to solve the tuning problem, it is formulated as a black-box optimization problem centered around a physical camera unit. Optimization is performed by comparing the camera's output to a reference image. Several black-box optimization algorithms were tested: Bayesian

This report aims to compare the plane parameters given by the PlaneRCNN network with those created by using a Structure from Motion (SfM) solution on the same data. Several datasets are used, and the results from PlaneRCNN are evaluated by using the camera matrices from the SfM solution and applying these along with scaling and coordinate transformations. We use and explain RANSAC, neural networks

The occurrence of wildfires is greatly dependent on an ecoregions typical climate and land cover type. To investigate whether climate or land cover primarily lead to wildfires in the conterminous United States, wildfire events from 1999- 2010 are analyzed. Wildfires are divided into years and eco-divisions, a sub-form of ecoregions. To assess whether warmer and dryer divisions are more severely a

Sedan vårdnadsreformen år 1998 blev den gemensamma vårdnaden allt viktigare i svensk familjerätt. Domstolarna arbetade aktivt med att införliva gemensam vårdnad som norm och skapa en ny rättstradition som talade för denna vårdnadsform. I och med 2006 års vårdnadsreform togs presumtionen om gemensam vårdnad bort. Lagförslaget innebar inga förändringar angående domstolens behörighet att döma till geJoint custody has been the main principle in Swedish Family Law since the custody reform of 1998. The Courts have ever since worked actively to implement joint custody as the main norm and to create a new legal tradition that advocates this form of custody. The presumption of joint custody was removed in the custody reform of 2006. The legislative proposal did however not result in any changes to

The purpose of this paper is to examine how the social service and the adminisarative law reasoning out their decisions in cases concerning compulsory care of children under LVU §2. The aim was also to concider how to discern any similarities or differences in the two organizations way of reasoning. An content analysis is made on social service´s childcare investigations and the judgements made by

The following essay examines the view of children as political participants is expressed in Swedish governmental investigations supporting decision making concerning children’s issues and matters of interest for children. The aim is to investigate, through an analysis of ideas, which view of children as political participants is dominating and where it has received its influences. Ideal types of c

The essence of cloud computing is about moving workloads from your local IT infrastructure to a data center that scales and provides resources at a moments notice. Using a pay-as-you-go model to rent virtual infrastructure is also known as a Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) offering. This helps consumers provision hardware on-demand without the need for physical infrastructure and the challenges

Bostik AB has long had a production where parts of the production are done manually. These parts include that an employee needs to lift a rubber pulp from a conveyor belt, twist and put the rubber pulp into a pallet. The employee should then put on a plastic patch between each layer. This process can in the long run be unhealthy for the employees who will carry out the movement because repeated li

The aim of this study was to analyse the relationship between different biometric parameters and sapflow and growth, respectively, in order to assess their potential for use in scaling. The effect of thinning on these relationships was also investigated. The studied stand consisted of Scots pine (ca. 60%), Norway spruce (ca. 35%) and downy birch (ca. 5%). Sapflow was measured by the tissue heat-ba

ObjectiveTo investigate the prediction of preeclampsia and gestational hypertension using maternal characteristics, mean arterial pressure (MAP), uterine artery pulsatility index (UtAPI), pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) and placental growth factor (PlGF) at gestational weeks 11-13 in a Scandinavian population with a medium to high prior risk for developing hypertensive disorders of
