We offer a range of basic level courses within biomedical technology, e.g. about biomechanics, sensors, ultrasound, measurement techology, signal processing, neural interfaces. Most of these are conducted in Canvas. Some of the basic level courses are also given as PhD courses. We offer Master's theses work within two main areas: Biomedical Technology, NMEN 01, and Electrical Measurements, BME 05.

Background: The range of onset ages within some PSEN1 families is wide, and a few cases of reduced penetrance of PSEN1 mutations have been reported. However, published data on reduced penetrance have been limited to clinical histories, often collected retrospectively and lacking biomarker information. We present a case of reduced penetrance of the PSEN1 H163Y mutation in a carrier prospectively fo
Background Low socioeconomic status (low education and income level) has been found to be associated with increased stroke mortality. However, findings from previous studies on the association between socioeconomic status and case fatality (survival) after stroke have been inconsistent. Aims The study aims to explore the association between socio-economic status and survival after stroke using Rik
We have compiled data on the occurrence of a threatened beetle, Osmoderma eremita, in Sweden. The species inhabits tree hollows with wood mould. The data were compiled from field surveys conducted in 1993-2003, using pitfall traps at 401 localities and using wood mould sampling at 104 localities. We have also gone through published data and all larger Swedish museums and registered old records. O.
Popular Abstract in Swedish Akut bukspottkörtelinflammation är en sjukdom som drabbar ungefär 35 per 100 000 invånare i Sverige årligen. Förloppet innebär i flertalet fall ett komplikationsfritt tillfrisknande. Cirka 20% drabbas dock av en allvarlig form som kräver stora sjukvårdsresurser och innebär avsevärd sjuklighet, inkluderande risk för vävnadsdöd i bukspottkörteln, lokala och spridda infektAcute pancreatitis, with an annual incidence of approximately 35 per 100 000 inhabitants in Sweden, is in most cases mild and self-limiting. Severe acute pancreatitis, affecting 10-15% of the cases is, however, associated with severe complications and even death. The optimal management of acute pancreatitis includes accurate early prediction of the disease severity. The aims of this thesis were to
Background: Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) based screening for prostate cancer (PCa) has been shown to reduce prostate specific mortality by 20% in an intention to screen (ITS) analysis in a randomised trial (European Randomised Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer [ERSPC]). This effect may be diluted by nonattendance in men randomised to the screening arm and contamination in men randomised to
Background - In patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), a beta-blocker is generally added to a regimen containing an angiotensin-converting-enzyme ( ACE) inhibitor. It is unknown whether beta-blockade as initial therapy may be as useful. Methods and Results - We randomized 1010 patients with mild to moderate CHF and left ventricular ejection fraction <= 35%, who were not receiving ACE inhibitor
Popular Abstract in Swedish Cystisk fibros (CF) är den vanligaste svåra ärftliga metabola sjukdomen i den vita befolkningen. I Sverige drabbar den ca 1:4500-6500 individer men i många länder har den en högre incidens på ca 1:2000-3000. Trots en klart förbättrad överlevnad det senaste decenniet är det fortfarande många som dör i ung ålder. Den vanligaste dödsorsaken är lungkomplikationer till följdCystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common severe autosomal recessive disorder among Caucasians and is caused by mutations of the chloride channel, CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) gene. Despite a markedly improved median survival many CF patients still die at a young age. The chronic lung disorder is the main cause of mortality. Endogenous and exogenous factors, which may c
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has a well-documented positive effect on mortality and heart failure morbidity. The aim of this study was to assess the long-term survival and the predictive value of self-assessed functional status on the long-term prognosis of patients treated with CRT-pacemaker (CRT-P).METHODS AND RESULTS: Data were retrospectively collected from medical records of 446 co
Background. The use of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) is established as a bridge to heart transplantation. Methods. All Swedish patients on the waiting list for heart transplantation, treated with LVAD since 1993 were retrospectively collected into a database and analyzed in regards to risk factors for mortality and morbidity. Results. Fifty-nine patients (46 men) with a median age of 49
Att tvångsomhänderta ett barn är ett undantag från svensk inställning att vård ska ske genom frivillighet. Det är inget som görs lättvindigt och det krävs att det finns en påtaglig risk för att barnets hälsa eller utveckling annars kommer till skada. Men hur stora krav finns det i samband med vårdens avslutande, var ligger fokus när den bedömningen görs? Syftet med detta arbetet är att titta på föTo take a child into public care against the parents will is an exception from the Swedish standpoint that all care should be given on a voluntary basis. It requires that there is a noticeable risk that the child's health or development will come to harm. But what are the demands when deciding whether the care should come to an end? Where is the focus in that process? The aim of this study is
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune rheumatic disorder characterized by inflammation in several organ systems. SLE patients have an impaired ability to clear dying cells which leads to the exposure of several nuclear antigens which might break self tolerance. Autoantibodies directed against the nuclear antigens will form large immune complexes (ICs) which are central in the immunop
