Bakgrund: Myalgisk encefalomyelit/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) är en kronisk sjukdom som ofta debuterar i samband med kraftiga virusinfektioner. ME/CFS kan förändra individens förmåga att utföra aktiviteter i vardagen och möjligheter att upprätthålla vanor och rutiner, dock saknas det kunskap om personernas egna upplevelser. Syfte: Syftet med intervjustudien är att undersöka hur vuxna persone
Syftet med den här studien är att presentera en analys av Sigurd von Kochs närmast okända tonsättning av dikten Stjärnöga, för att utifrån denna analys utarbeta ett förslag på en didaktisk analysmetod för den klassiska sånggenren, med inriktning mot den individuella sångundervisningen på gymnasiet. Studien utgår från musikforskaren och pedagogen Bo Wallners analysmetoder, vilka också är utgångspun
The current thesis critically investigates whether training and using third-party data in artificial neural networks (ANNs) could constitute a liability for copyright infringement. Furthermore, the present paper sets out to explore whether training and using ANNs could fall within the IP right holders' exclusive rights. In this regard, this thesis will mainly focus on the reproduction parts as
This thesis seeks to answer what causes some governments to restrict foreign funding to domestic civil society organizations while others do not. These repressive measures have increased significantly in all regions of the globe recently and existing research has yet to provide an encompassing explanation for the trend. Considering that neither foreign funding or government repression are exactly
The diverse application of unmanned aerial vehicles has rapidly progressed during the last decade and is currently being implemented for medical deliveries in multiple developing countries. Thus far, medical drone delivery systems have successfully been established on a national scale in Ghana and Rwanda by the American company Zipline, currently playing a leading role within the field. The conduc
Background: Physiotherapy research concerning interventions for children with CP is often focused on collecting evidence of the superiority of particular therapeutic methods or treatment modalities. Articulating and documenting the use of theory, instrumentation and research design and the assumptions underlying physiotherapy research interventions are important. Physiotherapy interventions focusi
A search for a heavy Standard Model Higgs boson decaying via H -> ZZ -> l(+)l(-)q (q) over bar, where l = e, mu, is presented. The search is performed using a data set of pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.04 fb(-1) collected in 2011 by the ATLAS detector at the CERN LHC collider. No significant excess of events above the estimated background is found.
Background and aims: Anti-alpha 4 integrin therapy with natalizumab is efficacious in refractory Crohn's disease and in multiple sclerosis, but carries an estimated 1/1000 risk of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) caused by reactivation of latent JC virus infection. Athough anti-alpha 4 integrin therapies are likely to be introduced in the clinic, screening for the risk of PML has n
The large difference between the Planck scale and the electroweak scale, known as the hierarchy problem, is addressed in certain models through the postulate of extra spatial dimensions. A search for evidence of extra spatial dimensions in the diphoton channel has been performed using the full set of proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV recorded in 2011 with the ATLAS detector at the CERN La
Background: Excessive use of antibiotics is worldwide the most important reason for development of antimicrobial resistance. As antibiotic resistance may spread across borders, high prevalence countries may serve as a source of bacterial resistance for countries with a low prevalence. Therefore, bacterial resistance is an important issue with a potential serious impact on all countries. Initiative
Store-operated Ca2+ influx represents a major route by which cytosolic Ca2+ can be elevated during platelet activation, yet its molecular identity in this cell type remains highly controversial. Using quantitative RT-PCR analysis of candidate receptor-operated cation entry pathways in human platelets, we show a 30-fold higher expression of message for the recently discovered Orai1 store-operated C
Ethnographically inspired methods have in recent years been successfully applied in Information Science (IS) research on different forms of social media related practices (c.f. Sundin & Francke 2009a; 2009b, Kjellberg 2010). This paper aims to contribute to an emerging discussion on the use of this methodological approach for analysing and comprehending consequences of the 2.0-turn in public l
The Bicoid (Bcd) protein gradient in Drosophila serves as a paradigm for gradient formation in textbooks. To explain the generation of the gradient, the ARTS model, which is based on the observation of a bcd mRNA gradient, proposes that the bcd mRNA, localized at the anterior pole at fertilization, migrates along microtubules (MTs) at the cortex to the posterior to form a bcd mRNA gradient which i
This paper examines the importance of influent fractionation, kinetic, stoichiometric and mass transfer parameter uncertainties when modeling biogas production in wastewater treatment plants. The anaerobic digestion model no. 1 implemented in the plant-wide context provided by the benchmark simulation model no. 2 is used to quantify the generation of CH4, H-2 and CO2. A comprehensive global sensit
A highly functionalized six-membered cyclic carbonate, methacrylated trimethylolpropane (TMP) cyclic carbonate, which can be used as a potential monomer for bisphenol-free polycarbonates and isocyanate-free polyurethanes, was synthesized by two steps transesterifications catalyzed by immobilized Candida antarctica lipase B, Novozym®435 (N435) followed by thermal cyclization. TMP was functionalized
Background: There is a great variability in licit prescription drug use in the population and among patients. Factors other than purely medical ones have proven to be of importance for the prescribing of licit drugs. For example, individuals with a high age, female gender and low socioeconomic status are more likely to use licit prescription drugs. However, these results have not been adjusted for
