Objectives: Enterococcal bacteremia can be complicated by infective endocarditis (IE) and when suspected, transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) should be performed. The previously published NOVA score can identify patients with enterococcal bacteremia at risk for IE and we aimed to improve the score. Methods: Factors associated with IE were studied retrospectively in a population-based cohort of

OBJECTIVES: The cell cycle regulator cyclin D1 plays an important role in parathyroid tumourigenesis. The NciI polymorphism in exon 4 has recently been associated with early onset of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer and is a prognostic indicator of nonsmall cell lung cancer and squamous cell carcinomas. Furthermore, a limited study of 28 primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) patients display

Polychlorinated-biphenyls (PCBs) were introduced in the late 1920s and used until the 1970s when they were banned in most countries due to evidence of environmental build-up and possible adverse health effects. However they still persist in the environment, indoors and in humans. Indoor air in contaminated buildings may confer airborne exposure markedly above background regional PCB levels. To dat

This Master’s thesis analyzes the narratives that are used to portray the LGBTQ+ community and how they relate to the political parallelism of the Polish media system. The focus is on the online edition of TVP Info – the news channel of TVP, Poland’s public service broadcaster. The research investigates the structural changes of the media system, which occurred after the Law & Justice Party (P

This thesis examines some of the multiple variations of the previously established Rules of Thumb; which are used in attempting to explain implied volatility sur- faces. Here, these Rules are extensively tested on the Swedish stock market index (OMXS30) using rolling window analysis and linear stepwise regressions with for- ward selection. Data is collected on options at four different maturities

The report discusses mathematical modeling of thermal components, such as heat exchangers and control valves. A flexible model library for simulation has been developed. The object-oriented and equation-based modeling language Omola is used to describe the components in mathematical terms. The library of models can be used to build models of more complex thermal systems, such as heat exchanger uni

Den svenska missbruks- och narkotikamodellen bygger på en restriktiv straffrättslig kontroll med ett narkotikafritt samhälle som mål. Trots detta har Sverige idag högst narkotikarelaterad dödlighet i Europa. Portugal använder istället en modell där skademinimering är centralt och förvärv och innehav avsett för eget bruk samt eget bruk är avkriminaliserat. I dagsläget verkar också Norge ta in på etThe Swedish drug control strategy is based on restrictive criminal law where the goal is a society free from illicit drugs. However, today Sweden has the highest drug-related mortality in Europe. Countries like Portugal use a different model where harm reduction is central and acquisitions, personal possession and consumption are decriminalized. Norway is also taking an interest in switching to a

När är en bild barnpornografisk? Frågan kan utredas rättsdogmatiskt, men också empiriskt genom att domstolarnas prövningar av misstänkt barnpornografiska bilder undersöks. Det är inte självklart att de olika utredningsmetoderna ger samstämmiga svar; domare dömer inte nödvändigtvis på ett sätt som överensstämmer med gällande rätt. I den här undersökningen jämfördes innebörden av barnpornografi enliWhen does an image constitute child pornography? The issue can be investigated with a legal dogmatic method, but also with an empirically method and by examining the courts' trials regarding suspected child pornographic material. It is not obvious that the different methods of investigation provide consistent answers; judges do not necessarily decide in a manner consistent with applicable law.

Personlig varumärkning är ett koncept som innebär att varumärken och dess image till stor del identifieras med en person. Personliga varumärken kommer med stora fördelar, exempelvis att en djupare relation etableras mellan organisation och konsument, vilket kan vara svårt att uppnå för en mer opersonlig organisation. Däremot kommer det även med större risker, som att organisationen och personen baPersonal branding is a concept that is based on brands and their image being largely identified with a person. Personal brands come with many benefits, for example that a deeper relationship is established between the organization and the consumer, which can be difficult to achieve for a more general organization. However, it also comes with greater risks, being the organization and people behind

This paper discusses Fair Trade and analyses its impact on producers and producer organisations. Fair trade was developed in reaction to the situation on the market for conventional coffee. Coffee prices on the international market fluctuate sharply and have shown a decreasing trend. In 2001 prices reached their lowest level in 30 years. The decline in prices received by producers has increased ru

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of using extended-wavelength diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (EW-DRS) to measure tissue response related to blood perfusion. The study was performed on a model that we have previously found to be useful for studying techniques for perfusion monitoring following the injection of epinephrine in a local anesthetic in the human fore

Familial risks for cancer are important for clinical counseling and understanding cancer etiology. The nationwide Swedish Family-Cancer Database includes all Swedes born in 1932 and later (0 to 68-year-old offspring) with their parents, totaling over 10.2 million individuals. Urological cancer cases were retrieved from the Swedish Cancer Registry up to year 2000. Standardized incidence ratios (SIR

A wideband, compact monopolar patch antenna with an inherent filtering response is presented in this paper. By employing a slot-assisted mode-tailoring technique, the field distributions of several higher-order modes at the patch center are engineered to produce a stable monopolar radiation pattern with enhanced bandwidth. The closed-form analysis indicates that increasing the current intensity at

Kockums AB is a company with long experience from developing and manufacturing submarines. At the moment they are running a grand development project called A26 that will be a new generation of submarines. There will be a radical change made to the energy systems on the boats regarding the diesel engines. The latest produced submarines have used two large diesel engines from MTU, but to keep repai
