Popular Abstract in Swedish Akupunktur är en mer än 2000 år gammal terapeutisk metod, som ingår i den traditionella kinesiska medicinen (TCM), för lindring av en del sjukdomar och symtom såsom smärta. Tunna, solida nålar instickes i så kallade akupunkturpunkter, oftast belägna i muskulaturen och utspridda över hela kroppen längs linjer som kallas meridianer. Det finns ett flertal olika sätt att teIn a retrospective follow-up study, n=202, long-term pain relief (>6 months) after a course of acupuncture treatments was found mainly among patients with chronic nociceptive pain while patients with neurogenic or psychogenic pain did not benefit much. In a placebo-controlled randomised single-blind long-term study with independent observer of chronic nociceptive low back pain, n=50, it was found

Popular Abstract in Swedish Venös trombossjukdom (blodpropp i ben och lunga) förekommer i en frekvens av ca 160 per 100.000 invånare och år i Malmö. Venös trombossjukdom är en av våra vanligaste sjukdomar. Bakgrunden till venös trombossjukdom är mångfacetterad och både ärftliga och förvärvade riskfaktorer bidrar till sjukdomen. Kända riskfaktorer är övervikt, immobilisering (ex gipsbehandling, slaActivated protein C resistance (APC resistance) is the most common hereditary condition associated with venous thrombosis. The syndrome known as APC resistance is perfectly linked to a mutation in the gene coding coagulation FV (FV:Q506) mutation changing Arg 506 to Gln in the APC cleavage site. APC-resistance is associated with a hypercoagulable state and life-long increased risk of thrombosis. A

This paper presents a novel reconfigurable powerconscious core test wrapper and discusses its application to optimal power-constrained SOC (system-on-chip) test scheduling. The advantage with the proposed wrapper is that at each core it allows (1) a exible TAM (test access mechanism) bandwidths, and (2) a possibility to select the appropriate test power consumption. Our scheduling technique, an ex

In the construction industry, sustainability and greening is more than just a passing trend. It has become an important agenda since the building sector has immense environmental impacts. It accounts for 42% of final energy consumption and about 35% of all greenhouse gas emissions. In order to meet these challenges, the construction industry needs to change and adopt new working procedures which t

This report contains a summary of the work with spherical electrical machines found in the specialised literature. Spherical actuators allow several degrees of freedom (DOF), which is particularly interesting in robotics. Complex movements are traditionally accomplished by combining several electrical machines with 1-DOF, ending up with an overweight actuator and accuracy problems due to tolerance

This paper presents a characterization method for millimeter wave (mmWave) phased array antennas in the mobile terminal for 5G communication. Arrays of different antenna designs, operating at 28 GHz, are evaluated according to novel characterization methods in this context - the total scan pattern of the phased array and its respective coverage efficiency. The results show the relevance of evaluat

The main objective of this thesis was to identify methods for the detection of ß-lactam resistance in staphylococci, bacteria often causing nosocomial infections. Detection of ß-lactam resistance in these species is difficult due to strong regulation of genes encoding for the two main resistance mechanisms, ß-lactamase production and the penicillin-binding protein (PBP) 2?. ß-lactamase has high af
