Amputation of the lower limb is one of the most feared diabetic complications. It is associated with loss of mobility and a poor quality of life. Amputations result in high economic burden for the healthcare system. The financial cost is also high for patients and their families, particularly in countries that lack a comprehensive health service and/or have a low income. Losing a leg frequently im
T1 mapping is widely used today in CMR, however, it underestimates true T1 values and its measurement error is influenced by several acquisition parameters. The purpose of this study was the extraction of accurate T1 data through the utilization of comprehensive, parallel Simulations for QUAntifying RElaxation Magnetic Resonance constants (SQUAREMR) of the MOLLI pulse sequence on a large populatio
A parallel procedure for an effective optimization of relative position and orientation between two or more fragments has been implemented in the MOLCAS program package. By design, the procedure does not perturb the electronic structure of a system under the study. The original composite system is divided into frozen fragments and internal coordinates linking those fragments are the only optimized
Over the past years fast label-free nonlinear imaging modalities providing molecular contrast of endogenous disease markers with subcellular spatial resolution have been emerged. However, applications of these imaging modalities in clinical settings are still at the very beginning. This is because single nonlinear imaging modalities such as second-harmonic generation (SHG) and two-photon excited f
Successful further treatment of Wilms tumors (WTs) after preoperative chemotherapy and surgery depends on correct histopathologic risk stratification, including quantification of remaining blastemal elements. In the present study, we assessed the usefulness of protein markers for the detection of WT blastema.
To evaluate the anatomic suitability of the Zenith pivot branch (p-branch) fenestrated device in ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (rAAA).
The frequency dependence of the longitudinal relaxation rate, known as the magnetic relaxation dispersion (MRD), can provide a frequency-resolved characterization of molecular motions in complex biological and colloidal systems on time scales ranging from 1 ns to 100 μs. The conformational dynamics of immobilized proteins and other biopolymers can thus be probed in vitro or in vivo by exploiting i
A warmer climate may increase the risk of attacks by insect pests on agricultural crops, and questions on how to adapt management practice have created a need for impact models. Phenological models driven by climate data can be used for assessing the potential distribution and voltinism of different insect species, but the quality of the simulations is influenced by a range of uncertainties. In th
Background: Adjusting medication for uncontrolled asthma involves selecting one of several options from the same or a higher treatment step outlined in asthma guidelines. We examined the relative benefit of introducing budesonide/formoterol (BUD/FORM) maintenance and reliever therapy (Symbicort SMART (R) Turbuhaler (R)) in patients previously prescribed treatments from Global Initiative for Asthma

While the Swedish rural countryside has seen a decline in economic activity and population due to demographic changes and cutbacks in welfare services the Norwegian rural areas has not undergone the same decline. This essay seeks to compare two political documents, one from each country, in the belief that not only policy, but also the views on the rural areas, peripheries, and their purpose influ
Parking is an essential part of the current transportation system and the infrastructure developed for the use of private cars. Parking policy has preserved unsustainable mobility patterns by providing excessive amounts of parking. This makes it an interest of urban planners to ensure that new parking policy facilitates for a sustainability transition in urban mobility. The aim of this thesis is
I denna uppsats har en netnografisk studie över bullet journal-metoden och instagramanvändare som brukar denna genomförts. Syftet var att undersöka vilka funktioner som anteckningsblocken fyller för användarna, hur bullet journal-relaterade instagramkonton används samt vad det är som driver människor att publicera bilder på sina bullet journals på Instagram och vad som händer i detta gränsland mel
This paper analyses the economic impact of Transnational Corporations through their activities across Global Value Chains (GVCs), using Mexico as baseline country. By exploiting the UNCTAD-Eora Global Value Chain database, we conduct an exploratory research methodology. We first unfold the relationship between GVC trade and economic development by disaggregating GVC trade into its two components (
The Standard Model of particle physics (SM) attempts to describe the fundamental particles and how they interact with each other. This model is however incomplete, as shown by various experimental observations. ATLAS is one of the experiments currently in operation at the Large Hadron Collider, which aims to search for new physics beyond the SM. To perform these searches, many ATLAS analyses look
Adipic acid is considered as the most valuable dicarboxylic acid with industrial use; however, its production is heavily petroleum-based. This non-natural metabolite can be produced de novo through different metabolic pathways, one of which is the alpha-ketoacid elongation pathway. This investigation revolved around the study of the enzyme that catalyses the first +1C elongation reaction of the pa
