Background: Some patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) cannot be treated with vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) and will therefore not receive effective thromboprophylaxis. The primary objective of the present Phase II trial (NCT00623779) was to assess the feasibility of conducting a study with a novel oral anticoagulant, the direct thrombin inhibitor AZD0837, in patients with AF unable or unwilling t
The adsorption of CO and the reaction of CO with pre-adsorbed oxygen at room temperature has been studied on the (2 x 1)O-Rh(1 1 1) surface and on vanadium oxide-Rh(1 1 1) "inverse model catalyst" surfaces using scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and core-level photoemission with synchrotron radiation. Two types of structurally well-defined model catalyst V3O9-Rh(1 1 1) surfaces have been prepar
Popular Abstract in Swedish Olika sätt att mäta substrat (monosackarider) och produkter (främst etanol) vid tillverkning av biobränslet etanol har studerats. Etanoltillverkning sker i en fermentor med hjälp av mikroorganismer som kan omvandla socker. Det är av stort intresse att mäta koncentrationen av produkter och substrat under tillverkningsprocessens gång för att veta om den fortlöper som den Two different detection methods for on-line monitoring of substrates and products in ethanol fermentations have been studied. Amperometric biosensors were developed for use as detectors in flow injection or liquid chromatographic (LC) systems. Carbon paste was used as the electrode material and served as the supporting matrix to incorporate the enzymes alcohol oxidase or pyranose oxidase. Hydrogen
The aim of this thesis was to reconstruct the Holocene vegetational and climatic development in the Sylarna-Storulvån area, western Jämtland, in the central Scandes Mountains. Temporal trends and fluctuations in the elevation and vegetational character of the tree-limit ecotone were studied mainly by means of pollen and plant macrofossil analysis of two lake sediment sequences (Lakes Stentjärn and
Syftet med denna avhandling har varit att undersöka tvångsvårdens legitimitet. För det ändamålet har jag genomfört, spelat in och transkriberat kvalitativa intervjuer med 80 klienter – som var föremål för LVM-vård våren 2006 – samt deras socialsekreterare när klienterna dels var intagna på LVM-hem och dels vid en uppföljning cirka sex månader efter tvångsvårdens slut. Avhandlingen utgår från fem The aim of this dissertation was to examine the legitimacy and the legitimizing of compulsory care for substance abusers according to LVM. For this purpose I have conducted, recorded and transcribed qualitative interviews with 80 clients – taken into such care in spring 2006 – and their social welfare officers when the clients were in compulsory care and then again about six months after its termi
Going through the structural transformation processes since the 1990s, Georgia has opened its economy for export. This has been achieved by free trade agreements and governments’ attempts at promoting and assisting stakeholders. Being a “cradle of wine”, wine represents one of the most exported commodities of the country. This has been a result of partially, governments’ policy implementations, an
This thesis describes attempts at estimating the uncertainty of the 2-metre temperature forecast error from a probabilistic point of view, utilizing Bayesian neural networks. Bayesian neural networks are a type of machine-learning algorithms used to find patterns in data and make probabilistic predictions. Multiple fields of output data from the ECMWF IFS global model, along with temperature measu
I den här uppsatsen undersöker jag regleringarna kring datainsamling och lagring av data och regleringarna kring den personliga integriteten för att analysera hur de påverkar informationsföreläggandets effektivitet. Jag har även tittat på domstolsprocessen för informationsföreläggandet och jämfört den med förarbetena för att analysera om utfallet blivit som man tänkt och om det är ett effektivt inThe purpose of this paper is to analyse the efficiency of the right to information in the Swedish copyright act by examining the laws for collecting and retaining data and the laws concerning the right to private life and the protection of personal data. I have also examined the judicial process and compared it with the preparatory work to analyse if the right to information has turned out right a
The essay deals with the question of the conflict between restorative justice and the existing legal system, both on the theoretical, as well as on the practical level. The study addresses the question if the Swedish law for mediation as a response to crime is compatible with the ordinary criminal justice system, or if there is a conflict of interests between them. The questions answered are: What
The purpose of this paper is to analyze organization active immigrants' social relationships and how they describe it have changed since they moved to Sweden. We will also reason about possible gender differences. We have used a qualitative approach in which we interviewed nine persons from Iraq who moved to Sweden, five of them are women and four are men. We met our respondents in an organiza
Presently the telecom industry is going through a massive shift in technology. In the business to business environment regarding delivery and service of fixed telephony, the traditional circuit-switched PBX (private branch exchange) technology is successively replaced by a new Ip-based (Internet protocol) PBX technology. The new way of switching voice-calls doesn't demand a separate infrastruc
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Hjälper Nhandugue-flodens vatten Urema-sjön i Gorongosa Nationalpark, Moçambique, från att torka ut? I de centrala delarna av Moçambique ligger Gorongosa Nationalpark som skyddar ett omfattande ekosystem av flodplan, gräsmarker och skogsbeklädda områden. Efter drygt 20 år av inbördeskrig hade 1994 antalet stora däggdjur, så som lejon, zebror och bufflar, minskatGorongosa National Park in central Mozambique is situated at the southernmost extension of the East African Rift System (EARS), the Urema Rift. The park is protecting a vast ecosystem of floodplains, grasslands and woody coverage. From 20 years of civil war the large-mammal population in the park had in year 1994 been reduced by 90 % or more, and in 2004 a restoration project was started in order
Familjeåterförening är en viktig princip inom både svensk och internationell rätt. I svensk rätt regleras denna princip i utlänningslagen där en möjlighet till uppehållstillstånd på grund av anknytning ges. Vissa bevisrättsliga frågor måste dock uppfyllas för att uppehållstillstånd ska kunna ges. I denna framställning behandlas bevisning angående ställföreträdarskap för barn som söker uppehållstilFamily reunification is an important principle in both Swedish and international law. In Swedish law this principle is coded into the Aliens Act making it possible to get residence permit on the grounds of ties to Sweden. In order to get a residency permit there are a couple of things you have to prove, for example your identity and the existence of a relation to a person in Sweden. If you are und
Abstract Background: During the period 2000-2010, the majority of the Swedish populations’ savings were in equity funds. The consequence of households increased savings in stocks has resulted in a growing market for stock recommendations. However, whether analysts’ stock recommendations are reliable or not has been discussed for eight decades, ever since Alfred Cowles pioneering study “Can stock m

Rural households in Asian developing countries such as Vietnam have been participating in non-farm activities for decades, yet impacts beyond the economy of these households are little understood. Using evidence from available literature and two case studies from rural Vietnam, this paper exposes a range of socio-cultural impacts of non-farm activities. An increased social tension driven by a wide
