Abstract Background Axis Communications is a Lund based company which specializes in network cameras. In addition to the cameras, the company has a wide range of accessories that ensure their customers receive complete solutions. While the company has had significant successes by investing heavily in R&D, increased competition from low-cost competitors is now placing higher demands on cost-eff
Strålbehandling kan användas för att behandla olika cancerdiagnoser. Man vill då kunna rikta strålningen mot tumören medan så lite frisk vävnad som möjligt bestrålas. Olika studier visar att för patienter som behandlas med strålbehandling för cancer i vänster bröst är förekomsten av och dödligheten i olika hjärtsjukdomar högre än för de som behandlas med strålbehandling för cancer i höger bröst. DPurpose: To evaluate the benefits of using respiratory gating for left-sided breast cancer in the form of dose-sparing and biological effects to the heart and to investigate the set-up deviations for patients treated with respiratory gating in order to find an optimal correction strategy for this group of patients. Materials and methods: Nineteen patients treated with respiratory gating for left-
The commercially important Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus, ABFT) has recently returned to Nordic waters after being absent for half a century due to intense, unregulated overfishing and eventual stock collapse. The present study processed and explored big data obtained from Pop-off Satellite Archival Transmitters deployed on large (CFL 248 +/- 16 cm) ABFT (n =75) in the Skagerrak from 2017
Chatbots are increasingly being adapted as substitutes to humans in customer service. As the level of adoption increases, it becomes more important to understand the phenomenon of robots replacing humans – a new chapter in the rising digital world. Earlier research has explored and aroused criticism against the trend of automation and digitalization, urging companies to move towards a more custome
Writing a Renaissance: The New Negro and the path to a new Black nationalism 1917–1925 The New Negro: an Interpretation (1925), edited by the philosopher and critic Alain Locke, is regarded as a central text concerning the literary movement known as the Harlem Renaissance. Widely viewed as documenting the transition of Black American litterature into the age of modernism. The anthology sought to
This thesis examines the relationship between international law protecting refugees and national legislation in Sweden and in the UK. International protection is afforded by the 1951 Geneva Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees. But also general international human rights instruments are relevant. These include the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenant on Civil
Scientific abstract: The study set out to investigate diurnal patterns in methane flux in a fen in Kobbefjord, Southwest Greenland and to link these to physical and biological parameters in the environment. Methane flux was measured using six chambers which recorded the flux every ten minutes from spring to autumn. Methane flux data from 2009 and 2010 were compared to photosynthetically active radA study of diurnal variations in methane flux in a fen in Kobbefjord in Southwest Greenland is presented. Four separate periods, each of one week, from the growing seasons of 2009 and 2010 were chosen. Methane flux data were compared to surface temperature, soil temperature and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). Regression tests between surface temperature and methane flux produced highly
Objective: To test serum tau as a predictor of neurological outcome after cardiac arrest. Methods: We measured the neuronal protein tau in serum at 24, 48, and 72 hours after cardiac arrest in 689 patients in the prospective international Target Temperature Management trial. The main outcome was poor neurological outcome, defined as Cerebral Performance Categories 3–5 at 6 months. Results: Increas
BACKGROUND: A growing body of studies indicate benefits of physiotherapy for patients in palliative care, for symptom relief and wellbeing. Though physiotherapists are increasingly acknowledged as important members of palliative care teams, they are still an underutilized source and not fully recognized. The aim of this study was to explore the variety of activities described by physiotherapists i
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the awareness of palliative care (PC) in a general Swedish population. Design: We developed an e-survey based on a similar study conducted in Northern Ireland, consisting of 10 questions. Closed questions were primarily analyzed using descriptive statistics. Open questions were subject to inductive qualitative analysis. Subjects: The study utiliz

This paper presents and assesses the cooling integration of medium size electrical machines with distributed hair-pin type of windings. By introducing a hollow or profiled conductor the generated heat can be removed right where it is created. The cooling duct in conductor that can be connected either to series or parallel cooling flows increases DC resistance up to 1.5 times when comparing commerc
Lignin depolymerisation can be utilized to produce value-added aromatic compounds. One of the major challenges in lignin depolymerisation study is the development of effective analytical tools to unravel the huge complexity of the depolymerisation product mixture. Traditional gas chromatography (GC) and high- performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods applied for this purpose are often in la
Efter en landreform, som genomfördes i slutet av 40- och i början av 50-talet, blev de flesta taiwanesiska bönderna hemmansägare och odlade marken på små lantegendomar. Denna efterkrigsreform banade väg för en ekonomisk utveckling som väsentligt påverkade och förändrade bondesamhället. När det taiwanesiska jordbruket visade tecken på stagnation på 1970-talet, förändrades böndernas syn på markinnehAfter post-war land reform that took place between 1949 and 1953, most Taiwanese farmers became owner-cultivators working on small landholdings. Post-war land reform paved the foundation for economic development and industrialization, processes that squeezed the agricultural sector and created changes in farming villages. When Taiwanese agriculture showed signs of stagnation in the 1970s, farmers’

Background: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is an effective obesity treatment in adults and has become established in adolescents. Lower adherence to supplementation in adolescents confers a risk for long-term nutritional deficiencies. Objectives: To assess adherence to supplementation, micronutrient intake, and biochemistry in adolescents through 5 years after RYGB. Setting: University hospitals,
CONTEXT: Fear of pain resonates with most people, in particular, in relation to dying. Despite this, there are still people dying with unrelieved pain.OBJECTIVES: We quantified the risk, and investigated risk factors, for dying with unrelieved pain in a nationwide observational cohort study.METHODS: Using data from Swedish Register of Palliative Care, we analyzed 161,762 expected deaths during 201
Intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) is associated with abnormal neuro-developmental outcome. Aortic blood flow velocity waveforms have been shown to predict fetal distress in IUGR. Fetal aortic blood flow velocity waveforms were correlated to neuro-developmental performance at 7 years of age. Results suggest that abnormal fetal aortic blood flow velocity waveforms are associated with neuro-deve
BACKGROUND: A large proportion of adult survivors of cardiac arrest have a poor neurological outcome. Guidelines recommend multimodal neuro-prognostication no earlier than 72-96 hours after cardiac arrest. There is great interest in earlier prognostic markers, including very early markers at admission. The novel blood biomarkers proenkephalin A 119-159 (penKid), bioactive adrenomedullin (bio-ADM)
Användningen av artificiell intelligens (AI), det vill säga en rad primärt databeroende metoder och teknologier för bland annat prediktion och automation, tycks bidra till en omvälvande period i den offentliga förvaltningen. Detta skifte föranleder ett styrningsbehov, ofta kopplat till tillitsfrågor, vilket i en internationell kontext inte minst syns i en stor mängd etiska riktlinjer och principie
