Background: Adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT) for breast cancer improves relapse-free survival (BCRFS) and overall survival. Differences in terms of efficacy and toxicity could partly be explained by the significant interpatient variability in pharmacokinetics which cannot be captured by dosing according to body surface area. Consequently, tailored dosing was prospectively evaluated in the PANTHER trial

Just nu finns det en möjlighet för politikerna att lägga om stadsplaneringen så att det blir möjligt att nå FN:s hållbarhetsmål. Det skriver åtta forskare som arbetar med miljö- och hälsofrågor.

Recent conceptual studies identify gain, normative and hedonic factors as three categories of motivations of consumer proenvironmental behavior. However, empirical understanding of how these motivations interact and affect proenvironmental behavior is limited. This study is based on a survey of car owners in Sweden (N = 573) and uses structural equation modeling to analyze the data. The empirical

Deep learning has the potential to drastically increase the accuracy and efficiency of prostate cancer diagnosis, which would be of uttermost use. Today the diagnosis is determined manually from H&E stained specimens using a light microscope. In this paper several different approaches based on convolutional neural networks for prostate cancer classification are presented and compared, using th

Mycket har skett i jordbruket det senaste århundradet. Vi har rört oss från ett småbondesamhälle till ett mekaniserat, industrialiserat och kapitaliserat jordbrukssamhälle med en global marknad. Denna intensifiering av jordbruket har lett till förlust och fragmentering av biotoper vilket givetvis har påverkat den biologiska mångfalden negativt. När arter minskar eller försvinner riskerar vi även aModern agricultural practices have led to an intensification of the agricultural landscape which has negatively affected both biodiversity and the ecosystem services it provides. In my thesis I have used ecological theory of optimal foraging to try and explain how landscape structure, landscape composition and agricultural management can explain the loss of biodiversity and how remedies can effici

Purpose To establish a comprehensive set of recommendations for the service structure and skill set of nurses and allied healthcare professionals in prostate cancer care. Methods Using components of formal consensus methodology, a 30-member multidisciplinary panel produced 53 items for discussion relating to the provision of care for prostate cancer patients by specialist nurses and allied healthc

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den fysiska planeringen innebär interaktion mellan aktörer inom skilda samhällssfärer där parter med skilda sociala positioner, resurser, perspektiv och värderingar möts. Aktörernas bilder av vilka effekter ett givet planförslag medför och vilka effekter som ska betraktas som de mest centrala varierar regelmässigt. Mellan de berörda parterna är det därför inte ovanligt Since planning in connection with new building projects frequently generates controversy, it can be seen as a typical form of contentious politics. The aim of this dissertation is to analyze siting controversies, their origin, development and termination, in efforts to explore the problem of legitimacy in planning processes of this sort. The research approach employed is that of a multiple case s

A stochastic model based on a probability density function (PDF) approach was developed for the investigation of spark ignition (SI) engine knock conditions. The model is based on a two zone model, where the burned and unburned gases are described as stochastic reactors, and the movement of the turbulent flame front is expressed with a Wiebe function. Using a stochastic particle ensemble to repres

Secondary metabolites from fungi have become a major source of chemical innovation in programs searching for lead molecules with bioactivities, especially over the last 50 years. In this review, we discuss the fundamental considerations in the discovery of molecules for agricultural and medicinal uses. This group of organisms possesses a strong potential for scientific and industrial communities.

The search for new cancer biomarkers is essential for fundamental research, diagnostics, as well as for patient treatment and monitoring. Whereas most cancer biomarkers are biomolecules, an increasing number of studies show that mechanical cues are promising biomarker candidates. Although cell deformability has been shown to be a possible cancer biomarker, cellular forces as cancer biomarkers have

Detta arbete undersöker e-handelskonsumenters upplevelse av att använda betalningslösningar som buy now, pay later (BNPL), med fokus på den psykologiska resan från utcheckningsfasen till det faktiska betalningstillfället. För att besvara frågeställningarna: “Hur beskriver konsumenterna sitt köpbeteende i utcheckningsfasen när BNPL finns som betalningsalternativ?” och “Hur upplever konsumenter tide

Background: Targeted therapeutic mild hypercapnia may attenuate brain injury in comatose adults resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Objective: To describe the study protocol and statistical analysis plan for the Targeted Therapeutic Mild Hypercapnia after Resuscitated Cardiac Arrest (TAME) trial. Design, setting, participants and interventions: TAME is a phase 3, multicentre, paralle

Scientists have deemed existing protected areas in European forests insufficient to halt and reverse biodiversity loss resulting from ongoing intensification of management. In Sweden, protected areas are therefore complemented with the so-called areas of high conservation value (AHCVs), that is, landscapes encompassing both protected and assumed biodiversity-valuable areas as well as surrounding l

Recent years’ publications have shown how valuable information can be in the integrity management of civil structures. Monitoring systems increase the knowledge about the structural state, improving the prioritization of the interventions, and the selection of optimal maintenance strategy and thereby allowing for budget optimization and risk minimization. This paper investigates the effect of mult
