Aim: Many pediatric cancer patients undergo repeated bone marrow aspirations (BMAs) for diagnostic and treatment evaluation purposes. Full anesthesia is the standard of care during this procedure in high-income countries. At hospitals with low resources in low/middle-income countries many children undergo these painful procedures without sufficient pain relief. This study aimed to evaluate the use
Given an undirected graph and two pairs of vertices (si, ti) for i ϵ{ 1, 2} we show that there is a polynomial time Monte Carlo algorithm that finds disjoint paths of smallest total length joining si and ti for i ϵ{1, 2}, respectively, or concludes that there most likely are no such paths at all. Our algorithm applies to both the vertex- and edge-disjoint versions of the problem. Our algorithm is
This study investigates the relationship between changes in the frequency of dwell time delays and passenger flow characteristics and the frequency of railway service during the COVID-19 pandemic. To do so we make use of automatic passenger count data from commuter trains in Southern Sweden. Our findings show that the frequency of dwell time delays decreased under COVID-19 conditions compared to t
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avsaltning av havsvatten utgör en viktig källa för vattenförsörjning till befolkningen som bor vid Persiska viken, Medelhavet och Röda havet. De tre regionerna utgör ca 11,8 % av världens landyta och hade omkring 9 % av världens befolkning under 1950 och 2008, samt lika mycket enligt prognos för år 2050. Dessa områden är hemvist för 62 %, 58% och 60% av världens avsaltnIn this M.Sc. Thesis of a comparison for sewerage system of the three main municipalities of Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (T R N C) has been studied and discussed. The study covers the future population calculations for three municipalities, Nicosia, Famagusta and Kyrenia, by means of Turkish and European standards. The comparisons for sewerage system of the three municipalities are compare
Bridge monitoring is essential for ensuring their long-term safety, reducing disruptions, and supporting economic and social activities. Traditional monitoring techniques rely on periodic inspections and contact-based sensing systems, which, while effective, have limitations due especially to high installation and maintenance costs. Satellite-based Synthetic Aperture Radar Interferometry (InSAR) o
Global water scarcity requires innovative treatment solutions. This presentation explores three membrane-based concepts advancing from idea to pilot scale: stormwater harvesting with micro-/ultrafiltration (MF/UF), direct membrane filtration (DMF) for wastewater treatment, and a hybrid forward osmosis (FO), membrane distillation (MD), and nanofiltration (NF) system for seawater desalination.The EU
Typical glaucomatous visual field defects are often contiguous areas of diminished differential light sensitivity presenting as clusters of abnormally depressed points in the visual field chart. We investigated the value of recognizing arcuate cluster patterns, corresponding to the anatomy of the normal retinal nerve fiber layer. Cluster sizes were quantified using cluster volume and surface area.
The nanostructure of a series of choline chloride/urea/water deep eutectic solvent mixtures was characterized across a wide hydration range by neutron total scattering and empirical potential structure refinement (EPSR). As the structure is significantly altered, even at low hydration levels, reporting the DES water content is important. However, the DES nanostructure is retained to a remarkably h
In this study, a plant-wide model describing the fate of C, N and P compounds, upgraded to account for (on-site/off-site) greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, was implemented within the International Water Association (IWA) Benchmarking Simulation Model No. 2 (BSM2) framework. The proposed approach includes the main biological N2O production pathways and mechanistically describes CO2 (biogenic/non-biog
Cross-laminated timber (CLT) floors with supplementary layers or floating floors comprise a common solution in new multistory timber structures. However, bare CLT components provide poor sound insulation, especially in low frequencies during structure-borne sound propagation. Thus, floor configurations in wooden buildings deploy more layers for improved acoustic behavior. Twelve contemporary CLT f
Hip and knee arthroplasties are mostly successful procedures; however, patient injuries may occur and should be reported to Löf, the Swedish patient insurance. This study investigated the incidence of patient injuries after primary total hip and knee arthroplasty in the Swedish regions, differences in incidence depending on annual surgical volume, and types of approved injuries. Approved patient i
BACKGROUND: Hexavalent chromium (Cr(Ⅵ)) is classified as a group 1 human carcinogen and increases the risk of lung cancer. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have key regulatory roles in lung cancer, but less is known about their relation to Cr(Ⅵ) exposure.OBJECTIVES: We aimed to 1) measure the expression of lung cancer-related circulating ncRNAs in exposed workers and controls; 2) assess associations betwe
In this paper we propose a test planning scheme for corebased 3D stacked integrated circuits where the total test cost for wafer sort of each individual chip and the test cost of the complete stack at package test is minimized. We use an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) model to find the optimal test cost, which is given as the weighted sum of the test time and the test access mechanism (TAM). As
Papain-like protease (PLpro) of SARS-CoV-2 is a vital enzyme involved in viral polyprotein processing and in the suppression of host immune response. Due to its strategic role in viral replication and pathogenesis, PLpro represents a valid yet challenging target for drug development. Fragment-based drug discovery (FBDD) is a powerful strategy employed by the FragMAX facility at MAX IV to identify
AB 04 bygger på att ansvar och risker fördelas mellan beställare och entreprenör på ett ekonomiskt optimalt sätt. En central del av denna reglering rör tid. Utgångspunkten är att entreprenören ska planera och utföra arbetena så att kontraktstiden hålls. Om färdigställandet försenas kan beställaren därför ha rätt till förseningsvite enligt AB 04 kap. 5 § 3. Samtidigt innehåller standardavtalet bestAB 04 is based on an allocation of responsibilities and risks between the employer and the contractor in a financially optimized manner. An important aspect of this regulation is time. The starting point is that the contractor must plan and perform the works in such a way that the agreed upon contract period is met. If completion is delayed, the employer may therefore be entitled to liquidated dam
The scaling of high-mobility and superconducting transistors places strict demands on electrostatic control, making the gate capacitance a key factor for both performance and operational stability. In hybrid structures that combine semiconductors and superconductors, parasitic capacitances become particularly important, as fringing fields and heterogeneous material interfaces cause the total capac
I uppsatsen har gällande rätt avseende utomståenderegeln i 57 kap. 5 § IL fram-ställts och analyserats. Utomståenderegeln är en undantagsregel från de särskilda beskattningsreglerna i 3:12-regelverket. Bestämmelsen blir tillämplig om aktie-ägaren visar att utomstående i betydande omfattning äger del i företaget. Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka om tillämpningen av bestämmelsen är ändamThis bachelor thesis deals with the outsider rule in 57:5 Swedish income tax law (IL). The outsider rule is an exemption clause, and if found applicable the general taxation rules will be applied instead of the special close company rules. The out-sider rule will be applicable if the shareholder shows that outsiders own a signifi-cant amount of the company's shares. The purpose of this thesis

Swedish building regulations regarding fire safety design consist of performance-based requirements of which many are ambiguous, one of those is smoke ventilation of basements. The report aimed to clarify the purpose of this requirement, in order to ease practical application of it. The objective was to give a suggestion on how to formulate the requirement and to evaluate both standard and alterna
