The acoustic emission that is detectable in the forming of complex thin part plates contains information about the quality of the pressed plates. The information can be used as process control and to filter out advanced thin plates with defects such as cracks. The article describes the results obtained in a try-out pressing process in special developed punch-die pairs with different pressing
Over the last two decades there has been a striking and continuous increase in the prevalence of obesity both in industrialized and developing countries. Despite this global consistency there is a variation within countries with a higher prevalence of obesity within rural areas. The overall aim was to explore the prevalence of obesity and factors that influence the development of obesity in a rura
Introduction: In a cold,wet, or windy environment, cold exposure can be considerable for an injured or ill person. The subsequent autonomous stress response initially will increase circulatory and respiratory demands, and as body core temperature declines, the patient’s condition might deteriorate. Therefore, the application of adequate insulation to reduce cold exposure and prevent body core cool
BACKGROUND: The association between knee alignment and knee pain in knee osteoarthritis (OA) is unclear. High tibial osteotomy, a treatment option in knee OA, alters load from the affected to the unaffected compartment of the knee by correcting malalignment. This surgical procedure thus offers the possibility to study the cross-sectional and longitudinal association of alignment to pain. The aims
Objective: To evaluate the additive value of the prostate cancer gene 3 (PCA3) urine test to serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in prostate cancer (PC) screening among breast cancer, early-onset gene (BRCA) mutation carriers. This study was performed among the Dutch participants of IMPACT, a large international study on the effectiveness of PSA screening among BRCA mutation carriers. Materials
Languages contain thousands of words each and are made up by a seemingly endless collection of sound combinations. Yet a subsection of these show clear signs of corresponding word shapes for the same meanings which is generally known as vocal iconicity and sound symbolism. This dissertation explores the boundaries of sound symbolism in the lexicon from typological, functional and evolutionary pers
PURPOSE: Clinical relapse is the major threat for patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) undergoing hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT). Early detection of measurable residual disease (MRD) would enable preemptive treatment and potentially reduced relapse risk.METHODSPatients with MDS planned for HSCT were enrolled in a prospective, observational study evaluating the association b
Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is foremost characterized by β-amyloid (Aβ)-extracellular plaques, tau-intraneuronal fibrillary tangles (NFT), and neuroinflammation, but over the last years it has become evident that peripheral inflammation might also contribute to the disease. AD patients often demonstrate increased levels of circulating proinflammatory mediators and altered antibody levels
Background: Epidemiological studies have shown that many welders experience respiratory symptoms. During the welding process a large number of airborne nanosized particles are generated, which might be inhaled and deposited in the respiratory tract. Knowledge of the underlying mechanisms behind observed symptoms is still partly lacking, although inflammation is suggested to play a central role. Th
Local targeted treatment of bone and joint infections using antibiotic-containing carriers is a common practice today. A recently FDA approved biphasic calcium sulphate/hydroxyapatite (CaS/HA) carrier containing gentamicin has been reported to give a sustained drug release, highly effective in eradicating bone infections. We present the first study evaluating the widely used aminoglycoside tobramy
Objective/Background The objective was to analyze the long-term durability of intra-operatively placed Palmaz stents for type Ia endoleaks, and the evolution of aneurysm neck morphology. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study conducted at a tertiary referral centre. Patients treated between 1998 and 2012 were reviewed with regard to pre-, intra-, and post-operative data. Crude and relative
Background Late blight (caused by Phytophthora infestans) is a devastating potato disease that has been found to occur earlier in the season over the last decades in Fennoscandia. Up until now the reasons for this change have not been investigated. Possible explanations for this change are climate alterations, changes in potato production or changes in pathogen biology, such as increased fitness o
Public service eller radio och TV i allmänhetens tjänst kan betraktas som ett alltmer angeläget ämne att studera mot bakgrund av ett föränderligt medieklimat under intensiv konkurrens. Det bildar en central mediepolitisk fråga att balansera på såväl nationell som överstatlig nivå i förhållande till EU-rätten. I denna uppsats har en nutida förståelse för public service genom TV-sändningarna i allmäPublic service broadcasting can be considered as an increasingly important topic to study in the light of a changing media climate under intense competition. It also represents a central question in media policy to be balanced at a national as well as a supranational level in relation to EU law. In this thesis, an understanding of public service broadcasting with regard to television is based on

Aktivt kol har identifierats som en av de mer effektiva metoderna när det kommer till att avlägsna organiska mikroföroreningar (OMF) från avloppsvatten. Aktivt kol är ett poröst material med stor ytarea som kan adsorbera andra ämnen. Det är inget som existerar naturligt utan behöver framställas. Framställningen kan ske från i princip vilket material som helst som har en hög kolhalt. En stor del avActivated carbon has been identified as one of the more effective methods of removing organic micropollutants (OMP) from wastewater. Activated carbon is a porous material with a large surface area that allows adsorption of other substances. The material does not exist naturally and therefore has to be produced. The production can be done from any carbon-rich material and today the precursor is mai
