Older people with arrhythmias comprise a large group requiring complex care, posing many healthcare challenges. Rapid growth of the older population demands a better understanding of the needs of this patient group. The aim of this thesis was to investigate arrhythmia prevalence, incidence, survival, and experiences from the perspective of a geriatric population (aged 60+ years), and to examine th

Background: At birth, infants' lungs are fluid-filled. For newborns to have a successful transition, this fluid must be replaced by air to enable effective breathing. Some infants are judged to have inadequate breathing at birth and are resuscitated with positive pressure ventilation (PPV). Giving prolonged (sustained) inflations at the start of PPV may help clear lung fluid and establish gas volu

A major challenge in neuroscience is to resolve the connection between gene functionality, neuronal circuits, and behavior. Most, if not all, neuronal circuits of the adult brain contain a glutamatergic component, the nature of which has been difficult to assess because of the vast cellular abundance of glutamate. In this study, we wanted to determine the role of a restricted subpopulation of glut

Background: Clinical egg allergy is a common food allergy. Current management relies upon strict allergen avoidance. Oral immunotherapy might be an optional treatment, through desensitization to egg allergen. Objectives: To determine the efficacy and safety of oral and sublingual immunotherapy in children and adults with immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated egg allergy as compared to a placebo treatmen

Background: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children is associated with hyperactivity and impulsivity, attention problems, and difficulties with social interactions. Pharmacological treatment may alleviate the symptoms of ADHD but this rarely solves difficulties with social interactions. Children with ADHD may benefit from interventions designed to improve their social skills.We

This study aimed to test and validate a dual-time-window (DTW) protocol for 6-(fluoro-18F)-3-(1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-1-yl)isoquinolin-5-amine ([18F]MK6240) dynamic PET imaging in experimental datasets acquired in human subjects. Methods: DTW protocols were tested and validated in datasets previously collected in 25 participants: 13 were cognitively normal, 10 had mild cognitive impairment, and 2

Linda Siggelow Uppföljning av giftfria förskolors upphandlingskrav Arbetet med giftfria förskolor har utvidgats de senaste åren, och idag arbetar ungefär hälften av Sveriges kommuner med att försöka minska mängden oönskade kemikalier i förskola och skola. Ett av de verktyg som kommuner kan använda för detta ändamål är upphandling, men för att upphandlingen ska ses som komplett krävs någon formChildren should not be exposed to unwanted chemicals in their everyday life and several organizations in Sweden are working towards reducing the amount of chemicals that exists in toys and material intended for preschools. Many municipalities are joining the project, and are now working towards the goal “toxic free preschools”. In this struggle the municipalities have an impact in their procuremen

Framtidens energilagring banar väg åt förnyelsebar elenergi Andelen förnyelsebar elenergi på marknaden ökar ständigt. En negativ aspekt med dessa källor är att vi inte kan kontrollera när energin skall vara tillgänglig – vindkraften behöver vind och solkraften behöver strålande sol. För att överkomma dessa motsättningar och göra energin mer tillförlitlig behöver vind och solenergi kompletteras meIn this study, different membranes were tested for their use in a vanadium redox flow battery (VRB). The membranes were first tested under charge-discharge operation of the VRB over four charge-discharge cycles at different current densities (20 mAcm-2, 40 mA cm-2 and 60 mAcm-2) and the corresponding cell performance was evaluated in terms of total energy efficiency (EE), coulombic efficiency (CE)

En av de mest grundläggande principerna inom aktiebolagsrätten och en stark bidragande faktor till dess popularitet återfinns i 1 kap. 3 § ABL, dvs. aktieägare är som huvudregel inte personligt ansvariga för bolagets förpliktelser. Till varje huvudregel finns undantag och så även här. I Sverige har det diskuterats om aktieägare trotsallt ska kunna hållas ansvariga för bolagets förpliktelser genom One of the most fundamental principles of company law and a strong contributing factor to its popularity can be found in chapter 1. article 3 in the Swedish Companies Act, i.e. shareholders, as a general principle, are not personally responsibility for the debts or actions of a corporation. To every general principle exists exceptions, which applies here as well. In Sweden, the question has been r

För att förstå atomkärnans struktur är det framgångsrikt att studera exotiska kärnor med ett skevt förhållande mellan antalet protoner och neutroner. Sådana kärnor är dock mycket instabila och således svåra att bilda och analysera. Ett sätt att skapa dem är genom fusion-evaporationsreaktioner, då två kärnor kollideras och därvid sammansmälter. Den nybildade kärnan sönderfaller ögonblickligen genomThis work is aimed at improving the discrimination of protons and α particles in digitised signals from CsI(Tl) scintillators. This has been achieved using pulse-shape discrimination, wherein the shape of the pulses is used to learn which particle is detected. Two primary methods have been implemented and compared, namely, the charge-comparison method where the ratio between the integrals of two d

Bakgrund Ridsport är en av Sveriges största sporter med en stor variation av discipliner och utövare i alla åldrar. Trots att prevalensen för ländryggssmärta inom ridsporten misstänks vara hög så saknas kartläggning av problematiken, dess orsaker, konsekvenser och åtgärder. Syfte/frågeställningar Syftet med studien var att kartlägga prevalensen av ländryggssmärta och smärtans påverkan på det dagli

With the objective to classify a tabular data set of breast cancer patients with a high accuracy the self- supervised model VIME [1] is studied. The influence of several hyperparameters during pre-training is investigated and AUC of the downstream task is regarded as the measurement of performance. A larger unlabeled synthetic data set is generated using the Synthetic Data Vault (SDV) [2]. Differe

Much of these are geographic data, processed in some form of GIS (Geographical Information System). Others are building data, increasingly handled in different BIM (Building Informati

Health and emergency services aim to provide patients with urgent care according to an accessibility policy that is characterized by “proper service at the proper time and place” (Jordan et al. 2004; Murad 2007). Network analysis using geographical information system (GIS) applications has frequently been used in healthcare planning to investigate a population's accessibility to professional c

Under hösten 2014 spreds den senare benämnda ”dåliga stämningen” bland Sveriges kyldiskar då branschorganisationen Svensk Mjölk Ekonomisk Förening (Svensk Mjölk) valde att stämma havredrycksföretaget Oatly AB (Oatly) för bland annat vilseledande och misskrediterande marknadsföring. Domen kom i november 2015 och fällde Oatly på de flesta punkter. Fram tills domen föll men även efter fick den svenskDuring the fall of 2014 the Swedish Dairy Association sued the Swedish oat drink company Oatly. The already cold relationship between the two parties got even more tainted. The legal basis for the lawsuit was the way Oatly had chosen to market its oat drinks, which the Swedish Dairy Association found deceptive and discreditable. The judgment was announced in November 2015 with the Swedish Dairy As
