We performed a large nested case-control study within the Finnish and Icelandic maternity cohorts to verify/falsify the association of maternal EBV infection with an increased risk of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in the offspring found in previous studies. All hematologic malignancies diagnosed among children born during 1983 to 2006 in Finland and 1997 to 2005 in Iceland were identified thr
This interpretive focused-ethnographic study was conducted to illuminate and gain deeper understanding on managers’ everyday cooperative work practices using artefacts. In the dissertation, artefacts refer to digital technologies and information. The doctoral research specifically examines how artefacts in the workplace of an academic library are used in academic library managers’ everyday coopera
[Context & motivation] This research preview paper presents ongoing work on the metamodel of a free software requirements modeling tool called reqT that is developed in an educational context. The work aims to make an initial validation of a survey instrument that elicits views on the metamodel of the reqT tool, which aims to engage computer science students in Requirements Engineering (RE) th
The Baltic Sea has a generally low biodiversity, and several species are declining due to high anthropogenic pressure. One example is the Baltic Sea cod (Gadus morhua, L.), the cod has decreased since the 1980s in both biomass and abundance. One potential solution to increase the cod population is to improve settling ground and provide shelter for juveniles in artificial reefs. The Hanö Cod Reef p
AI-kommissionen föreslår 75 steg för att Sverige ska stärkas genom AI. Många av förslagen är välriktade, inte minst på utbildnings- och forskningsområdet. Det krävs tunga AI-investeringar framöver, men de får inte bara rikta in sig på teknik skriver bland annat Virginia Dignum, Professor Responsible Artificial Intelligence Umeå Universitet, Jonas Ivarsson, professor i informatik vid Göteborgs univ
Introduction A World Health Organization (WHO) system has recently been introduced to standardize reporting of lymph node fine-needle aspiration biopsy (LN-FNAB) cytopathology. Herein, we analyze its diagnostic performance in a routine setting.Materials and methodsWe reviewed 2274 consecutive lymph node fine-needle aspiration biopsies categorized according to the WHO system.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ofrivilligt urinläckage, urininkontinens, omfattar mer än 50 miljoner människor i världen, varav cirka 500 000 i Sverige. Av dessa beräknas 2/3 vara kvinnor. Ofrivilligt urinläckage är ett medicinskt och socialt handikapp för den drabbade, operation och hjälpmedel förorsakar samhället stora kostnader. Risken för urininkontinens ökar med stigande ålder. I svenska studierAbstract Pelvic floor disorders (PFD) represent a major public health issue worldwide. Aims of this work Study I: to investigate associations between preoperative resting urethral parameters (MUCP, FL and CA) and objective outcome of laparoscopic colposuspension and, if possible, to identify cutoff values useful in clinical practice. Study II: to investigate a group of perimenopausal women reporti
This booklet is a report for a case study visit during four day field trip, a group of nine PhD students and their supervisors – all part of the National Research School for Architecture and Planning in the Urban Landscape, APULA – set out to explore what may be considered the outback of Western Europe’s conurbations, the transnational region of Kiruna -Narvik.Both “remote” and “resourceful”, “thr
This detailed examination of contemporary Iran addresses the most current social, political and economic issues facing the nation and the way it is perceived by the outside world.

On the 18th of December 2014, the Court of Justice of the European Union delivered the historic Opinion 2/13, where it ruled that the draft agreement on the accession of the European Union to the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms is not compatible with Article 6(2) of the Treaty on European Union or with Protocol (No 8) relating to Article 6(2) TEU.In
Min uppsats syftar till att analysera inskränkningar i varumärkesrättslig ensamrätt, där import av de varumärkesskyddade varorna är tillåten mellan medlemsstater utan att rättsinnehavarens tillstånd anskaffas. Den varumärkesrättsliga ensamrätten konsumeras när rättsinnehavaren för ut varan på marknaden själv eller med innehavarens samtycke. En så kallad regional konsumt-ion har vuxit fram genom EUMy thesis aims to analyze the restrictions of trademark proprietor’s exclusive right, where imports of the trademarked goods are permitted between Member States without the authori-zation of the trademark proprietor.

Nanotechnology is an evolving scientific field that has allowed the manufacturing of materials with novel physicochemical and biological properties, offering a wide spectrum of potential applications. Properties of nanoparticles that contribute to their usefulness include their markedly increased surface area in relation to mass, surface reactivity and insolubility, ability to agglomerate or chang
Based on a new Swedish legislation for accident prevention and protection the support of the establishment of municipality accident prevention programs with documented basic data sets for decision-making is discussed. A division into four documents of basic data sets is proposed. A process is projected for the production, decree and compliment of municipal accident prevention programmes and the do
Ubiquitously used for monitoring pipelines and infrastructures, distributed fibre-optic acoustic sensing is becoming an emerging technology for earthquake monitoring thanks to the possibility to interrogate a large vast of distances with a dense number of sensing points in which an optical fiber cable can be retrofitted. Moreover, it can also be used as a tool by geophysicists for the characteriza
Rationale. The value of microRNAs (miRNAs) as biomarkers has been addressed in various clinical contexts. Initial studies suggested that miRNAs, such as the brain-enriched miR-124-3p, might improve outcome prediction after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The aim of this study is to determine the prognostic value of miR-122-5p in a large cohort of comatose survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arres
