Popular Abstract in Swedish Asymmetrisk katalys är ett omfattande forskningsområde där ett flertal olika typer av enantioselektiva katalysatorer har utvecklats och använts i en mängd olika kemiska reaktioner med varierande resultat. Det finns ingen katalysator som fungerar lika väl i alla applikationer, utan resultaten varierar från fall till fall och för vissa typer av substrat behövs det därför
This paper presents an exploration algorithm which examines execution time and energy consumption of a given application, while considering a parameterized memory architecture. The input to our algorithm is an application given as an annotated task graph and a specification of a multi-layer memory architecture. The algorithm produces Pareto trade-off points representing different multi-objective e
Background: Global climate change is already increasing the average temperature and direct heat exposure in many places around the world. Objectives: To assess the potential impact on occupational health and work capacity for people exposed at work to increasing heat due to climate change. Design: A brief review of basic thermal physiology mechanisms, occupational heat exposure guidelines and heat
Institutions for prevention and resolution of labor market conflicts were introduced all over the world in the early twentieth century. In this paper we analyze the impact of mediation on compromise outcomes in Swedish labor market conflicts, using a dataset of geo-coded strikes and lockouts from 1907 to 1927. Causality is identified by using the distance from the mediator's residence to the confl
Throughout different eras and cultures what is considered the cosmetically ideal breast has varied greatly. There is no broadly accepted standardised method that objectively evaluates aesthetic outcome after breast reduction mammoplasty. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the result of breast reduction regarding nipple position, comparing it to an objective previously described standard
In Ethiopia, full vaccination coverage among children aged 12–23 months has improved in recent decades. This study aimed to investigate drivers of the improvement in the vaccination coverage. The Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition technique was applied to identify the drivers using data from Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey conducted in 2000 and 2016. The vaccination coverage rose from 14.3% in 2
Finding the correct top dead center (TDC) offset for an internal combustion engine is harder than it seems. This paper introduces a novel method to find the TDC offset based on a simple assumption that the heat loss power through the combustion chamber walls is constant for motored cycles in a narrow crank angle interval around TDC. The proposed method uses nonlinear least squares optimization to
Aim: To explore the association between the coagulation protein fibrinogen and the fibrinolytic biomarker plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 ( PAI- 1) and the long- term mortality after coronary artery bypass grafting ( CABG). Patients and Methods: In 729 patients undergoing CABG at Sahlgrenska University Hospital, a blood sample for fibrinogen and PAI-1 was collected prior to the procedure. Patien
From an ecological point of view it is important to close nutrient cycles by recirculating mineral nutrients from the urban society back to agriculture and forestry, and thereby obtaining a sustainable resource utilisation. A part of this cycle is illustrated by irrigation of bioreactor landfill leachates on short rotation forests. This paper presents a budget for nutrients and heavy metals, begin
Spinach thylakoids were separated into grana core, grana margin, and two different stromal lamella fractions in the absence of detergents. The levels of all light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b-binding (LHC) proteins were determined in all fractions, and were normalised to the amount of Photosystem I (PS I) and Photosystem II (PS II) centres. PS Iβ in the stroma lamellae was found to have a full compl
Increasing loading of terrestrially derived dissolved organic matter tends to enhance bacterioplankton respiration (BR) in boreal estuaries, but knowledge on the mechanisms behind this effect is not complete. We determined the stable isotopic signature of the reactive estuarine dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in the Öre estuary (Baltic Sea) by using the Keeling plot method. The δ13C ratio of the es
A Dimple Jacket Heat Exchanger (DJHE) is designed for the Chemical Post-Processing Integrated Equipment (CPPIE) to enhance the heat transfer performance during chemical reaction, crystallization and drying processes. In this paper, a 3D model of a DJHE is established. Dynamic variation of temperature inside the DJHE is compared with experimental data to validate the accuracy of the numerical metho
Syftet med nuvarande arbetet är att genomföra en klinisk fallstudie som utvärderar begreppet Dynamisk-ElectroEnhanced Chemotherapy ™ (D-EECT). Tio patienter med plavocellkarcinom, åtta med bröstcancer och fem patienter med var och en som presenterade en annan typ av tumör, infördes i försöken initierade av fem olika cancercentra. Alla patienter fick Bleomycin och 2-3 behandlingstider med IQWave ™ The aim of the present work is to perform a clinical case study evaluating the concept of Dynamic-ElectroEnhanced Chemotherapy™ (D-EECT). Ten patients with squamous cell carcinoma, eight with breast cancer and five patients with each presenting a different type of tumour, were entered in the trials initiated by five different cancer centres. All the patients were given Bleomycin and 2 to 3 treatme
The purpose of this study is to assess QT interval measurements from the EASI 12-lead ECG as compared to the standard 12-lead ECG. The QT interval was automatically measured in simultaneously recorded standard and EASI 12- lead ECGs, using a validated wavelet-based delineator. The agreement between the two sets of measurements was quantified both on a lead-by-lead basis and a multilead basis. The
The aim was to perform a bibliometric study, and compare the quantity of publications on schizophrenia with the total medical literature in Medline during 57 years, 1950-2006. The annual additions of literature to Medline are continually increasing and form the Medline growth curve. Comparisons of the number of publications on schizophrenia, or any other disease, to this curve, may be used to esti
The protection provided by poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) to muscle lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in metal-catalyzed oxidation (MCO) systems (CuSO(4) or FeCl(2) combined with H(2)O(2)) was studied, and comparisons were made with the chelators EDTA and desferal, respectively. The analytical chelating capacity of PEI was estimated to be around 1 mol Cu(2+)/10 mol ethyleneimine for all molecular weights of
The effect of doping and diameter on the electrical properties of vapor-liquid-solid grown GaSb nanowires was characterized using long channel back-gated lateral transistors and top-gated devices. The measurements showed that increasing the doping concentration significantly increases the conductivity while reducing the control over the channel potential and shifting the threshold voltage, as expe
