New combustion engine principles increase the demands on feedback combustion control, at the same time economical considerations currently enforce the usage of low-end control hardware limiting implementation possibilities. Significant development is simultaneously and continuously carried out within the field of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). In recent years FPGAs have developed, from
OBJECTIVE: To assess the inter-tester reliability of the New Mobility Score in patients with acute hip fracture. DESIGN: An inter-tester reliability study. SUBJECTS: Forty-eight consecutive patients with acute hip fracture at a median age of 84 (interquartile range, 76-89) years; 40 admitted from their own home and 8 from nursing homes to an acute orthopaedic hip fracture unit at a university hosp
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den här avhandlingen handlar om utvecklingen av CARS som en diagnostikmetod för att studera förbränningsförlopp. CARS står för Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy och är en optisk laserbaserad metod för att mäta temperaturer och ämneskoncentrationer i gaser. CARS, och andra typer av förbränningsdiagnostikmetoder, bidrar till ökad förståelse för de processer som utgöDuring the last decades, coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS) has been an important tool in combustion research. The focus of this thesis is the improvement of the capability of the pure rotational CARS (RCARS) technique for this type of applications. The technique is used to measure temperatures and relative species concentrations in the gas phase and thermometry is performed by fitting
Low kilovoltage (kVp) computed tomography (CT) may be used to reduce contrast medium dose in patients at risk of contrast nephropathy, at the cost of increased image noise.

Review article on a new monograph by Ola Holmgren on the poetics of Peter Weiss (1916 - 1981), especially his relationship to the German and Swedish languages.
Background: The South Swedish Pneumococcal Intervention Project (SSPIP) was started in 1995 with the aim of limiting the spread of penicillin-non-susceptible pneumococci (PNSP) in Skåne County, Sweden. As part of the SSPIP, eradication therapy with rifampicin in combination with 1 more antibiotic was considered on a social indication after prolonged carriage of 2-3 months. Methods: In this retrosp
Interaction with the extracellular matrix (ECM) is one of the successful colonization strategies employed by non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi). Here we identified Haemophilus lipoprotein 4 (P4) as a receptor for ECM proteins. Purified recombinant P4 displayed a high binding affinity for laminin (Kd=9.26 nM) and fibronectin (Kd=10.19 nM), but slightly less to vitronectin (Kd=16.51 nM). A P
The aim of this article is to discuss how changes in tomato food regulation, production and consumption, can be seen as part of a broader societal change from Modernity to Late Modernity. Based on evidence from the Swedish and European food systems we demonstrate how a system, which has been successfully managing development in food production for several decades by stressing rationality, homogene
Objective . The management of pancreatic pseudocysts varies, based mainly on local traditions, resources and expertise. No prospective, randomized study has been done comparing different approaches to treatment. The aim of the present study was to identify current treatment strategies in Sweden. Material and methods. A questionnaire comprising 12 questions was e-mailed to the surgical departments
