Introduction Compression neuropathies (CN) in the upper extremity, the most common being carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and ulnar nerve entrapment (UNE), are frequent among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Earlier studies have shown contradicting results regarding DM as a risk factor for CN. Thus, the aim of the present population-based, longitudinal study was to explore potential associations
PURPOSE: To report the lifetime risk of visual impairment resulting from glaucoma in patients originally followed up in a 10-year prospective randomized study initiated in 1981 to assess patients with elevated intraocular pressure (IOP).DESIGN: Retrospective patient chart review.PARTICIPANTS: Data on deceased patients who initially were followed up prospectively in the randomized controlled study

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are rapidly permeating nearly every aspect of modern life, frompersonal devices and autonomous systems to industrial automation and environmental monitoring. The growing demandfor intelligence at the network edge is reshaping how computing hardware is conceived and built. Edge AI platforms areexpected to deliver high throughput within tight en
Metal fuels can be promising candidates as alternative energy sources and renewable energy carriers within the metal-fuel cycle. They feature high energy density, low environmental impact, and broad production and application. One challenge in metal particle combustion lies in its multi-physics complexity compared to traditional hydrocarbon fuels. This thesis intends to investigate the combustion
There is widespread criticism that place marketing initiatives contribute mainly to the commodification of places (Lichrou and Panayiotopoulos, 2021; Kavaratizis et al., 2018; Kavaratzis et al., 2017) and to the commodification of the climate crisis (Fletcher 2019). Place marketing is seen here only as a strategic management tool to make a place recognisable in the minds of different stakeholders,
This thesis comprises three self-contained chapters that explore how individual behavior, incentives, and institutional frameworks shape the allocation of scarce resources, with particular emphasis on healthcare markets. The first chapter examines the impact of intrinsic truth-telling preferences on consumer welfare within a priority pricing mechanism, in which individuals can gain faster access t
As the proverbial noose tightens around humanity’s resource spending, research is focused on utilizing materials to their fullest potential. Nanotechnology is the ultimate way to economize by splitting objects into smaller parts and dispersing the material properties over greater surface to volume ratios. Emerging quantum effects at the nanoscale present unique tweaking opportunities in applicatio
This doctoral dissertation presents the development and digital hardware realization of cardiac event detectors. Implantable medical appliances, as the cardiac pacemaker, have progressed from a life sustaining device to a device that considerably improves life quality for all ages. The number of electronic devices and household appliances in everyday live has an ongoing exponential growth. The
Contemporary advancements in miniaturization of analytical systems have advantageously fostered development, automation, and hyphenation of a variety of sample preparation techniques. Among several downscaled extraction designs, porous synthetic polymeric membranes (such as flat sheet (FS) or hollow fiber (HF)) have been utilized for membrane-based extraction, separating two aqueous phases (as in
Popular Abstract in English Modern society is still largely based on fossil resources. However, there are growing concerns about the security and cost of these resources, as well as climate change resulting from the combustion of fossil fuels. Biofuels represent renewable fuels with the potential to mitigate the adverse effects of fossil fuels, providing a more sustainable alternative. The transpBioethanol from sugarcane is a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, and the increasing demand for fuel ethanol has prompted studies on the use of the lignocellulosic residues of sugarcane, namely bagasse and leaves, as new feedstock. This thesis describes various process designs and the economic feasibility of producing second generation (2G) ethanol from bagasse and leaves via the enzymatic r
STUDY OBJECTIVE--The aim of the study was to investigate the receptor events that mediate the vascular effects of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) on human coronary arteries, since 5-HT has long been thought to play a role in coronary artery vasospasm. DESIGN--Recently available selective receptor agonists and antagonists were used to examine the 5-HT receptor subtypes present in human epicardial corona

Purpose - Food lost or wasted constitutes a substantial environmental, economic and social problem; today roughly one-third of edible parts of food that is produced for human consumption globally gets lost or wasted. Thus, a reduction of waste would contribute to a sustainable use of resources. It has been highlighted that packaging development has the potential to play an important role in this p
This thesis covers the development of a silicon neural interface, with focus on silicon sieve electrode fabrication, design, nerve regeneration, signal recording and biocompatibility. A study of how the via hole size and transparency of the perforated sieve membrane influences the nerve regeneration is presented together with a study on soft tissue responses to planar and porous silicon. A method
The report, designed for interested parties of the industrial food industry in France, is founded on three research questions inspired by literature studies of sustainable development, management of corporate social responsibility, industrial food production and food product quality. The research questions search for the identification and explanation of critical categories of concern relevant for
[Context] The continuous inflow of bug reports is a considerable challenge in large development projects. Inspired by contemporary work on mining software repositories, we designed a prototype bug assignment solution based on machine learning in 2011-2016. The prototype evolved into an internal Ericsson product, TRR, in 2017-2018. TRR’s first bug assignment without human intervention happened in A
Background: Antipsychotic medication is effective for symptomatic treatment in schizophrenia-spectrum disorders. After symptom remission, continuation of antipsychotic treatment is associated with lower relapse rates and lower symptom severity compared to dose reduction/discontinuation. Therefore, most guidelines recommend continuation of treatment with antipsychotic medication for at least 1 year
The 10E8 antibody targets a helical epitope in the membrane-proximal external region (MPER) and transmembrane domain (TMD) of the envelope glycoprotein (Env) subunit gp41 and is among the broadest known neutralizing antibodies against HIV-1. Accordingly, this antibody and its mechanism of action valuably inform the design of effective vaccines and immunotherapies. 10E8 exhibits unusual adaptations
Chronic neural interfaces that are able to record or stimulate neurons in the CNS are valuable instruments in use today and they hold great promise for the future both within neuroscience research and in the clinic. However, a major obstacle is that they show a decline in performance over time. Many different approaches to improve the interface designs are gradually evaluated in hope of overcoming
