Artificial Neural Networks for Diagnoses of Dysfunctions in Urology

In this article we evaluate the work out of artificial neural networks as tools for helping and support in the medical diagnosis. In particular we compare the usability of one supervised and two unsupervised neural network architectures for medical diagnoses of lower urinary tract dysfunctions. The purpose is to develop a system that aid urologists in obtaining diagnoses, which will yield improved

Phosphatidylethanol - formation and degradation in blood and organs.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Arbetet med denna avhandling har handlat om en abnormal fosfolipid (fettämne) som bildas i kroppens celler endast när alkohol är närvarande, lipiden kallas fosfatidyletanol (PEth). För att lättare kunna förstå resultaten av våra undersökningar börjar jag med en kort bakgrund. Alla kroppens celler är omgärdade av ett membran som skiljer dem från varandra och omgivningen.Phosphatidylethanol (PEth) is an abnormal phospholipid formed exclusively by the action of phospholipase D (PLD) in the presence of ethanol. The degradation of PEth is slow and due to its accumulation in some cells the possibility to use PEth as marker of ethanol intake has been proposed. It has also been suggested that PEth mediates some of the damaging effects of ethanol on cells. This study was

Effect of water storage time on frost resistance of concrete

In high performance concrete (HPC) with low water-cement ratio, cement reaction will cause substantial drying expressed in terms of relative humidity (RH) of the pore water. This phenomenon is called self-desiccation. The RH-values as low as 85% have been measured in dense concretes that have been stored for more than 18 months in water. This means that there is almost no freezable water in the co

Privacy, Security and Trust in Cloud Computing: The Perspective of the Telecommunication Industry

The telecommunication industry has been successful in turning the Internet into a mobile service and stimulating the creation of a new set of networked, remote services. Most of these services now run or are supported by cloud computing platforms. Embracing cloud computing solutions is fundamental for the telecommunication industry to remain competitive. However, there are many legal, regulatory,

Vowel reduction and the perception of words

This study deals with listeners' ability to identify linguistic units from linguistically incomplete stimuli and relates this to the potentiality of vowel reduction in a word. Synthetic speech was used to produce stimuli that were similar to real words, but where the vowel in the pre-stress syllable was excluded. Listeners then performed a lexical decision test, where they had to decide whether a
