This article presents a fully integrated millimeter-wave (mmW) transceiver front end covering 24.25–29.5 GHz. It features a wideband Doherty power amplifier utilizing adaptive bias and a transmit/receive switch (TRX-switch) that has embedded low noise amplifier to antenna matching. The phase shift of 90
Multiple sclerosis leads to diffuse damage of the central nervous system, affecting also the normal-appearing white matter. Demyelination and axonal degeneration reduce regional fractional anisotropy in normal-appearing white matter, which can be routinely mapped with diffusion tensor imaging. However, the standard fractional anisotropy metric is also sensitive to physiological variations in orien
Background and aim: To date, few studies have focused on the health effects of pesticide exposure among avocado farmworkers. We examined the association of exposure to insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides with cognitive and mental health outcomes among these avocado workers from Michoacan, Mexico. Materials and methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study of 105 avocado farmworkers between Ma
Background: The purpose was to evaluate glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and total-tau in plasma as predictors of poor neurological outcome after out-of-hospital (OHCA) and in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA), including comparisons with neurofilament light (NFL) and neuron-specific enolase (NSE). Methods: Retrospective multicentre observational study of patients admitted to an intensive care u
Background and objective: Patients diagnosed with grade group (GG) 1 prostate cancer (PCa) following treatment for benign disease (“incidental” PCa) are typically managed with active surveillance (AS). It is not known how their outcomes compare with those observed in patients diagnosed with GG1 on biopsy. We aimed at determining whether long-term oncologic outcomes of AS for patients with GG1 PCa
Ett av Sveriges klimat- och energipolitiska mål avser effektivare energianvändning. Ett sätt att uppnå målet är genom kravställning på energihushållning vid renovering av byggnader. I de fall då det med hänsyn till byggnadens kultur- och arkitektoniska värde inte går att tillämpa beprövade metoder får andra alternativa metoder sökas. En sådan annan alternativ metod är en dubbelskalfasad och innebäOne of Sweden's political objective is to increase energy efficiency. One way to achieve the objective is by making demands on the use of energy after a building has been renovated. Regarding the building's cultural and architectural values there are cases where it is not possible to apply proven methods to meet the demands, and other alternative methods must be sought. Such an alternative
Contract law has traditionally been regulated by national law which has raised certain problems in cross-border transactions caused by the divergences in domestic contract law among the Member States. Therefore, the diversity of national law has been increasing the challenges in practice for entrepreneurs which is causing a lack of legal certainty, uniformity and creates serious obstacles that hin
Controlling growth of a cell How incredible would it be to control growth of cells? One of the most basic mechanisms in life. This knowledge would be especially useful for treating threatening cells such as cancer cells or pathogenic bacteria. It would be lifesaving to understand and determine their growth. Here the focus is on growth of bacteria, particularly those belonging to the genus Strepto
Popular Abstract in Swedish Små partiklar i form av vätska eller fast material mellan 0.001 till 100 µm i diameter, kan sväva i luften och kallas då aerosolpartiklar. De påverkar direkt på klimatet genom att reflektera solstrålar ut till rymden. Detta gör att vi får ett kallare klimat. Indirekt kan de påverka klimatet genom att verka som kondensationskärnor vid molnbildning. Med detta påverkar de The aim of this work was to study atmospheric aerosols, focusing on the chemical composition, the morphology and the origin of the aerosol in the upper troposphere and lowermost stratosphere. An aerosol sampler was developed for this purpose. A new method for quantitative analysis of the major components of the aerosol, i.e. C, N and O was developed, and methodologies for single-particle analysis
Background: Combination lipid-lowering therapy (LLT) after myocardial infarction (MI) achieves lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and better cardiovascular outcomes vs statin monotherapy. As a result, global guidelines recommend lower LDL-C but, paradoxically, advise treatment through a stepwise approach. Yet the need for combination therapy is inevitable as <20% of patients
Sex trafficking has from six hundred thousand to four million victims each year (McCabe and Manian, 2010: 41-43). Because of different legal barriers, sex trafficking is closely associated with organized crime; crime victims often do not search for support from legal systems, law enforcement authorities, or other officials (ibid.) This thesis was to understand how law affects the ability of preven
With an increasingly population and urbanization, the solid waste management have become a major challenge for local authorities in developing countries all over the world. The local authorities must improve their waste management in order to minimize the negative effects of solid waste and to avoid future land use conflicts. At the same time the economical resources are limited and solid waste ma
Dealing with water diffuse pollution is a major problem for watershed managers. This problem raises many complicated questions, which are important to answer in order to reach water environment protection goals. This study suggested some possible answers for the country of Lithuania. Among them were the identification of critical source areas, the identification of sensitive areas and the applicat
Monte Carlo-simuleringar har fått en ökad betydelse som forskningsverktyg inom nuklearmedicinsk bildgivning eftersom man på ett mycket kontrollerat sätt kan studera nästan vad man vill. I denna studie har datorsimuleringar av ett PET-system gjorts med ett program som heter GATE. PET (Positron Emission Tomography) är en nuklearmedicinsk bildgivningsteknik som används mer och mer inom sjukvården sIntroduction: Monte Carlo simulation is a powerful tool in research in the field of nuclear medicine imaging and there is a wide area of applications. The purpose of this work was (1) to understand the basics of the Monte Carlo simulation software Geant4 Application for Tomographic Emission (GATE); (2) to create a model of Philips Gemini TF PET/CT system; (3) to run a number of simulations to comp
Dwarf galaxies are a key component in understanding the evolution of galaxies and provide tests on the standard cosmological $\Lambda$ Cold Dark Matter model. According to the formation hierarchy, dwarf galaxies are the pieces that create all galaxies. Our current understanding of dwarf galaxies faces discrepancies between theory and observations. These problems are mostly due to incompleteness in
Introduction. The European Multiple System Atrophy-Study Group (EMSA-SG) is an academic network comprising 23 centers across Europe and Israel that has constituted itself already in January 1999. This international forum of established experts under the guidance of the University Hospital of Innsbruck as coordinating center is supported by the 5th framework program of the European Union since Marc
GENERAL AIM: To investigate how common single-nucleotide-polymorphisms (SNPs) that associate with cardiovascular disease (CVD) could be used in prevention and treatment of CVD. SUBJECTS: Subjects from the population-based Malmö-Diet-and-Cancer-(MDC)-Study (n=30447) and hypertensives from the Nordic-Diltiazem-(NORDIL)-Study (n=10881). METHODS AND RESULTS: A nine-SNP-lipid-genetic-risk-score was r
