Objective. Overactive bladder (OAB) is a chronic condition that has a profound impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL). This study measured changes in bother of OAB symptoms and self-perceived HRQoL over 6 months in patients treated with extended-release (ER) tolterodine in a naturalistic setting. Material and methods. This was a prospective, single-cohort observational study of patients

The aim of the present study is to study the Abscopal regression of subcutaneously implanted N29 rat glioma after immunization with syngeneic IFNg secreting cells and treatment of contra-lateral tumours with pulsed electric fields (PEF) and/or radiation therapy (RT). The study was performed on rats of the Fischer-344 strain with rat glioma N29 tumours implanted subcutaneously on the flank or on bo

La Petite Ceinture is a mysterious abandoned rail line at the heart of Paris. Once a major connector between the different train stations of the French capital, it now quietly rests hidden, as one of Paris’ long forgotten green corridors. In 2006, a joint collaboration between the elected representatives and the train company tried to come up with a plan to open it up for the public to enjoy. Th

This paper analyses the prevalence of populist rhetoric within the South African ruling ANC party by evaluating the speeches of five presidents through an ideational theoretical framework. The grading criteria applied was developed by Hawkins et al. 2019, widely regarded as a pioneers in the field of populism studies. All the evaluated speeches in this paper were State Nation Addresses (SONAs) and

This thesis analyses web statistics belonging to a national B2C e-commerce in retail. The purpose of the thesis is to investigate abandoned carts amongst logged in customers with at least one product added in to their cart and at least one visit to the payment page. Since the response variable "cart" is binary and we are studying the probability of a cart being abandoned, the suitable me

The purpose, of this degree project, is to make a detailed analysis of how young consumers experience overconsumption as a phenomenon. We also aim to understand how overconsumption can be a part of the consumer’s identity making process. We have managed qualitative, interviews with eight respondents in the ages 20-30 years.

With rapid urbanization and an increasing share of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions from cities, low-carbon urban transformations are critical for mitigating climate change. Local climate networks have been recognized for their potential to govern such activities. However, less is known about how such networks are implemented and managed as well as their capacity to accelerate transformative

The purpose of this thesis is to examine how the exposure of the coastal population of Kalimantan, Indonesia changed as a result of coastal mangrove loss and population growth. The change of exposure has therefore been calculated through the loss of mangrove biomass, through deforestation and degradation, over time, as well the increase in population living within 10km2 of disturbed mangroves. The

There has been much work on classification of malaria infected blood; in resent time, a method using LED-based microscopy has been developed with the goal of reducing time and cost. The education level needed to make such decisions is also reduced using this microscope. This is mainly done to help the developing countries in the fight against malaria and develop these countries competence in the f

In this work, the mechanical behavior of longitudinal sealings in paper based beverage packages have been investigated trough experimental tests and Finite Element simulations. The mechanical performance of the longitudinal sealing is of great interest when developing and improving beverage packages. Choosing a suitable sealing type is both a performance and cost issue, therefore is better knowled

Safety performance functions (SPFs) are crucial to science-based road safety management. Success in developing and applying SPFs, apart data quality and availability, depends fundamentally on two key factors: the validity of the statistical inferences for the available data and on how well the data can be organized into distinct homogeneous entities. The latter aspect plays a key role in the ident

Children’s biographies are only rarely and more recently considered. In this paper, we make a case for thinking biographically about children’s relational lives. Using two qualitative case studies from research with children in middle childhood, in the UK and Sweden, we attend to the materiality of children’s biographies. We explore the way in which home spaces, possessions, family mementoes and m
