BackgroundOlder patients are often vulnerable and highly dependent on healthcare professionals’ assessment in the event of acute illness. In the context of ambulance services, this poses challenges as the assessment is normally conducted with a focus on identifying life-threatening conditions. Such assessment is not fully satisfactory in a patient relationship that also aims to promote and protect

Study region: In the Yangtze River basin of China. Study focus: We applied a recently popular deep learning (DL) algorithm, Transformer (TSF), and two commonly used DL methods, Long-Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU), to evaluate the performance of TSF in predicting runoff in the Yangtze River basin. We also add the main structure of TSF, Self-Attention (SA), to the LSTM and G

AIM: We aim to compare machine learning with neural network performance in predicting R0 resection (R0), length of stay > 14 days (LOS), major complication rates at 30 days postoperatively (COMP) and survival greater than 1 year (SURV) for patients having pelvic exenteration for locally advanced and recurrent rectal cancer.METHOD: A deep learning computer was built and the programming environment

BACKGROUND: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) specific T-cells are known to provide long-term control of CMV reactivation, which is a frequent complication of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. We have studied 58 pediatric patients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation who suffered from CMV reactivation to reveal which functional T cell subset is best correlating with successful reactivation res

Background: Liver cirrhosis is characterized by a silent phase until decompensation, which is defined by ascites, bleeding from esophageal varices or hepatic encephalopathy. Aim: We compare the clinical course, patterns of survival and causes of death by etiology during long-term follow-up in a large population-based cohort of patients with incident cirrhosis. Material and methods: We used populat

As of January 1, 2005, it will no longer be allowed under international trade rules for one country to impose import quotas on textiles and garments on another country. It is widely expected that the expiration of the 1974 Multifiber Arrangement will lead to a drastic re-shuffle of garment production and trade patterns. Where a number of countries were previously guaranteed a share of the European

My thesis concerns two of the three district city councils mentioned in the title, in the City of Malmö, and their way of handling the government initiative Storstadssatsningen. The initiative is aiming to promote strategies to

Uppsatsen behandlar vilken betydelse FN:s konvention om barnets rättigheter bör ha för barn i skoindustrin. För att besvara denna huvudfråga tar uppsatsen upp följande delfrågor: - Hur ser situationen ut när det gäller barnarbete? - Vad är FN:s Barnkonvention? - Vem har ansvar för att Barnkonventionen efterlevs? - Hur och var sker tillverkningen av skor? - Vilka rutiner har skoföretag när det gälThe essay investigates what meaning the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child should have to children in the shoe industry. To be able to answer this main issue the essay is divided into the following sub-categories: - How does the situation look like when it comes to child labour? - What is the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child? - Who is responsible for the obse

Utgångspunkten för denna uppsats är att det i det svenska samhället råder en stark norm kring tvåsamhet som grund för familjebildning, vilket blir tydligt redan i första kapitlet i ÄktB i vilket det framgår vilka som har rätt att gifta sig - de som befinner i sig i en parrelation. Polygami i form av månggifte är emellertid olagligt. I uppsatsen studeras hur tvåsamheten legitimeras och vad som uttrThis thesis is based on the assumption that Swedish society has a strong norm surrounding twosome togetherness as the basis for family construction. This is already evident in the first chapter of the Swedish Marriage Code, which refers to those eligible to marry as two persons in a relationship. Polygamy, however, is illegal. The thesis examines the legal concept of twoness; what is said about it

Hållbar utveckling är ett begrepp som fått ökat genomslag i ljuset av den pågående globaliseringen. Även om det finns flera definitioner till begreppet så innebär hållbar utveckling i sak en strävan efter en varaktig och långsiktig ekonomiskt tillväxt utan att för den sakens skull försaka sociala resurser eller skada naturens ekosystem. Då en allmän uppfattning av globaliseringen är att den bidrarThe notion of sustainable development has gained increased interest due to the on-going process of globalisation. Sustainable development as a concept refers to lasting economic growth that does not deplete social resources or harm ecosystems. As there is a general perception that globalisation brings markets and society ever so close to each other, demands are being raised to hold market actors –

In this thesis work, a highly linear passive attenuator and mixer were designed to be used in a wide-band Transmission Observation Receiver (TOR). The TOR is a low IF receiver that accepts RF frequencies from 2GHz to 7GHz, and produces corresponding IF bandwidths of 280MHz to 990MHz respectively, using low side LO injection. The dynamic range is maximized by using passive topologies for both the a

Denna uppsats behandlar self-cleaning vid uteslutning av leverantörer till följd av brott som innefattar bestickning eller korruption. Närmare bestämt utreder uppsatsen vilka bedömningsgrunder en upphandlande myndighet börha vid bedömningen av en leverantörs self-cleaning härom. Som en konsekvens av att ha begått brott som innefattar bestickning eller korruption kan en leverantör uteslutas från aThis essay concerns self-cleaning in connection with exclusion of public contract suppliers due to bribery or corruption. More specifically, the essay examines on what grounds contracting authorities should assess a self-cleaning. As a consequence of being found guilty of bribery or corruption, suppliers can be excluded from the procurement procedure. However, the newly introduced Swedish Public

The purpose of this study is to compare the different short-term interest rate models, and to identify the better model within multiple countries. We selected three different types of data from the United States, the United Kingdom, and New Zealand. We compare the models with the historical data within these three countries, and figure out whether different countries could have their own best mode

PFOS (Perfluoroktansulfonat)-föroreningar har hittats på många ställen i Sverige och i resten av världen, därför finns det ett stort intresse och behov av att kunna kartlägga föroreningarna med fler metoder än vad som finns till-gängligt i dagsläget. Det här examensarbetet har som syfte att undersöka resistivitets- och IP (induced polarization)-mätningars lämplighet att kartlägga PFOS vid en brandPollution of PFOS (Perfluorooctane sulphonate) have been found at many sites in Sweden, but also in many other places worldwide. Because of the widespread distribution of PFOS there is a great interest and a great need to find new methods to map PFOS pollution. The purpose of this Bachelor thesis is to investigate if resistivity- and IP (induced polarization)- measurement can be used to find PFOS-

Oleaginous microorganisms provide an opportunity to produce oils without the use of arable land for cultivation of oil-containing plants. Oleaginous microorganisms are also capable of storing products of pharmaceutical interest alongside storing polymers, which could open new opportunities in the bioplastic industry. Oily yeasts have several advantages in comparison to alternatives; their doubling

In August 2017, a deadly crackdown by Myanmar’s army on Rohingya Muslims sent hundreds of thousands fleeing across the border into Bangladesh. The situation in Myanmar has escalated over the last few years. Mass displacements of refugees, sustained allegations of crimes against humanity, and a large-scale intervention has propelled the conflict to centre stage of international human rights. The si
