Introduction The spatial peaks QRS-T angle has been shown to differentiate adult patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) from controls. We hypothesized that the spatial peaks QRS-T angle would, in isolation, be more accurate than the Italian 12-lead ECG Pre-participation Screening criteria or the Seattle criteria for detecting hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in pediatric patients. Method
DELPHI data collected at centre-of-mass energies up to 208 GeV have been analysed to search for charginos, neutralinos and sfermions in the framework of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) with R-parity conservation. No evidence for a signal was found in any of the channels. The results of each search were used to derive limits on production cross-sections and particle masses. In addi
Ion current measurements can give information useful for controlling the combustion stability in a multi-cylinder engine. Operation near the dilution limit (air or EGR) can be achieved and it can be optimized individually for the cylinders, resulting in a system with better engine stability for highly diluted mixtures. This method will also compensate for engine wear, e.g., changes in volumetric e
A Catalyst pharmacophore model has been developed for the benzodiazepine site within the GABA(A) receptor complex. The model is based on a pharmacophore model originally proposed by Cook and co-workers (Drug Des. Discovery 1995, 12, 193-248) and further developed by Kahnberg et al. (J. Med. Chem. 2002,45, 4188-4201). The Catalyst pharmacophore model has been validated by using a series of flavonoi
In this study the integration and optimisation of hydrophobic pervaporation for the recovery of natural aroma compounds in the food industry has been studied. The simulation developed in the first part of this study was applied to the design and scale-up of pervaporation units for the recovery of natural apple juice aroma. Both semi-batch and continuous process configurations were considered and t
This article deals with the Finnish-Swedish, Jewish composer and author Moses Pergament and his relationship with Wagner's theories, anti-Semitism in particular, and their influence on the development of modern Swedish classical music during the interwar period. The author emphasizes the importance of recognizing that Pergament's reaction to Wagner's cultural theories was part and parcel of his st
Nature provides science and society with a virtually unlimited supply of structurally diverse and biologically active molecules; the natural products. While some are directly useful in commercial applications, others are valuable for studying and understanding biological phenomena at the molecular level. An example is the signaling of nerve cells, which has been explored in considerable detail usi
A search for supersymmetric particles in final states with zero, one, and two leptons, with and without jets identified as originating from b-quarks, in 4.7 fb(-1) of root s = 7 TeV pp collisions produced by the Large Hadron Collider and recorded by the ATLAS detector is presented. The search uses a set of variables carrying information on the event kinematics transverse and parallel to the beam l
This study examines the use of directives in Swedish Physical Educa-tion and Health classes, focusing on their application for native Swedish speakers and newly arrived second language learners. It investigates the types of directives used and how they differ when addressing L1 versus L2 students, as well as how teachers utilize directives to simultaneously instruct physical activities and teach s
Following the Bosman verdict from the ECJ in 1995, FIFA, the governing body of football, had to change its rules for the status and transfer of players to bring them in line with EC law. With the threat of an outright prohibition decision against the international transfer system under the EC Competition rules, FIFA reached an agreement with the Commission, in March 2001, on the principles for the
This thesis addresses the new policy reform for the establishment of newly arrived refugees in Sweden from a welfare policy perspective. The establishment reform aims to further integration of newly arrived refugees into Swedish society by transferring responsibility from local municipalities to the Public Employment Service and by introducing a private actor in the process. In the thesis I analys
To assess the value of ECG-gating for the diagnosis of myocardial infarction using myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) and an artificial neural network. A total of 422 patients referred for MPS were studied using a one day Tc-99m-tetrofosmin protocol. Adenosine stress combined with submaximal dynamic exercise was used. The images were interpreted by one of three experienced clinicians and thes
To compare physical activity measures and their associations with insulin sensitivity, β-cell function and body mass index (BMI) between Iraqi immigrants and native Swedes.
A majority of the established systems for determination and optimization of cutting data are based on Woxén’s equivalent chip thickness, heW. In metal cutting theory and models, the equivalent chip thickness is of vital importance when the depth-of-cut ap is in the same order or smaller than the nose radius r. Woxén made considerable simplifications in his chip area model, that form the basis for
The possibility of using pervaporation for the recovery of natural aroma compounds in the food industry has been widely recognised. The aim of this study was to build a bridge between experimental studies of multi-component systems and potential applications of pervaporation in the food industry. Therefore, a novel process simulation of pervaporation has been developed for multi-component mixtures
Women in developing countries have been and are still suffering from various disadvantages on the labor market. We use a fixed effects model with a hierarchical structure to assess the empirical relationship between economic integration, measured by trade, exports and imports, and the female labor force participation rate (FLFPR). The relationship between economic integration and the female employ
OBJECTIVE - The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of the postload plasma glucose concentration in predicting future risk of type 2 diabetes, compared with prediction models based oil measurement. of the fasting plasma glucose (FPG) concentration. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS - A total of 2,442 subjects from the Botnia Study, who were free Of type 2 diabetes at baseline, received an o
With the post-Kyoto climate negotiations underway, global emissions must be cut by 66% by, 2050 according to the IPCC, to prevent further damage to the environment. In order for this emission cut to be possible, all nations have to be a part of these negotiations. The Kyoto Protocol and the UNFCCC is the natural starting point for a new climate regime that must be established. Through a literatur
