A resampling method for quantitative MRS is presented that retains absolute concentrations. Averaging the spectra from a subset improved the concentrationestimates via increased SNR. Using short-TE STEAM spectra from human thalamus, the influence of subset size was systematically studied and verifiedagainst conventional bootstrap re-sampling. Even small subsets provided considerably better signal-
Nuvarande forskning om sexuella övergrepp i syskonrelation saknar familjens röst. Syftet med denna studie är att lyssna på föräldrars berättelser om hur familjen uppfattat, begripliggjort och hanterat sin situation sedan sexuella syskonövergrepp avslöjats. Vi mötte fem föräldrar med sådan erfarenhet för semistrukturerade intervjuer med öppna frågor, transkriberade i helhet och analyserade med inteThere is a lack of understanding what happens to and within a family after a disclosure of sibling sexual abuse. The aim was to study the unique experience of parents who experienced this kind of disclosure. We interviewed five parents using semi-structured interviews with open-ended questions. The interview was transcribed in whole and analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Six
I Sverige är aktiebolaget idag vår vanligaste associationsform och fördelarna är många. Den förmod¬ligen starkaste av dem är regeln om det begränsade ansvaret för aktieägare. Genom denna regel åtnjuter aktieägare skydd mot att behöva gälda bolagets borgenärer med mer än det redan satsade aktiekapitalet. Med detta som bakgrund kan det begränsade ansvaret sägas vara en direkt förutsättning för förveIn Sweden, the most common type of company is the limited stock company (aktiebolag), which brings about several advantages. The strongest one is probably the shareholders’ limited liability. By this rule, the stock owners acquire protection from having to atone for any company debt exceed¬ing the already submitted equity stock. Keeping this in mind, one can consider the limited liability being an
In "Intentional action and side-effects in ordinary language” (2003), Joshua Knobe reported an asymmetry in test subjects’ responses to a question about intentionality: subjects are more likely to judge that a side effect of an agent’s intended action is intentional if they think the side effect is morally bad than if they think it is morally good. This result has been taken to suggest that the co
Ground improvement with lime-cement pillars is becoming increasingly common in the Nordic countries for exploitation of areas with poor stability. However, there is no non-destructive method for quality control of the ground improvement. Significant changes in the electrical properties after mixing of the binders make electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) a potential method. In connection with l
Power consumption is an important design parameter for battery operated devices, and an especially sensitive issue in embedded Java systems. This paper presents a solution to reduce leakage power consumption of the heap memory characteristic of Java processors. By partitioning the heap into several memory banks and taking advantage of a compacting garbage collector, our method dynamically powers o
Shrunken pore syndrome (SPS) is defined by a cystatin C-based estimation of glomerular filtration rate (eGFRCYS) being less than 60% or 70% of a creatinine-based GFR estimation (eGFRCR) in the absence of extrarenal influences on cystatin C or creatinine concentrations. SPS has been associated with a substantial increase in mortality or morbidity in all investigated populations. However, in these s
The extent and composition of the immune response in a breast cancer is one important prognostic factor for the disease. The aim of the current work was to refine the analysis of the humoral component of an immune response in breast tumors by quantifying mRNA expression of different immunoglobulin classes and study their association with prognosis. We used RNA-Seq data from two local population-ba
Culturally oriented consumer research has predominantly been framed by two ideal types of reflexivity, which we characterize as existential and critical reflexiv-ity. Drawing from our research on divorced women who have been displaced from their domestically oriented, middle-class lifestyles, we develop an alternative con-ceptualization-reactive reflexivity-that highlights a different relationship
The paper present a parallel implementation of an image processing algorithm for the on-line, non-destructive quality assurance of the non-woven, fibrous web materials. The task of the algorithm is to compute the material microstructure descriptors. The premise underlying this work is that the microstructure determines the performance of the material and characterization of the microstructure may
OBJECTIVE: To explore the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteome in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and the associations between the CSF proteomic patterns and clinical manifestations.METHODS: CSF samples from 29 female outpatients with SLE were analyzed with label-free liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. Inclusion and CSF collection were conducted irrespective of clinical manifestation
