This volume brings together current linguistic research in a range of pre¬dominantly multilingual contexts. The authors draw on data from different languages and speech communities around the world, and together the chapters offer a broad picture of language acquisition, development and use – among both children and adults. While this is a valuable undertaking in its own right, the main reason for

This review article summarizes the most recent clinical trials for dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the most common cause of vision loss in the elderly in developed countries. A literature search through websites https://www.pubmed.org and https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/, both accessed no later than November 04, 2015, was performed. We identified three Phase III clinical trials that wer

OBJECTIVES: To compare two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound techniques, including volumetry of fetal thigh, for fetal weight (FW) estimation in prolonged pregnancy, and to develop a new FW estimation formula. METHODS: This prospective comparative study initially included 176 pregnant women. FW estimation was performed at >/= 287 days of gestation within

Transforaminal epidural steroid injection (TESI) is a frequently used intervention for lumbar radicular pain.

Adult type 2 diabetes patients with GAD65 autoantibodies (GADA) are known as latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA). It has been suggested that GADA in LADA patients preferentially bind to the N-terminal end of GAD65. Using the N-terminal end extension of (35)S-GAD65 generated by the pEx9 plasmid, we tested the hypothesis that GADA in LADA patients preferentially react with (35)S-GAD65 from t

Objective: Our aim was to compare the ability of radiologists to detect breast cancers using one-view breast tomosynthesis (BT) and two-view digital mammography (DM) in an enriched population of abnormal (diseased) patients and benign and/or normal (healthy) patients. Methods: All participants gave informed consent. The BT and DM examinations were performed with about the same average glandular

Two-tone frequency modulation spectroscopy (TTFMS) is applied to the determination of water activity using an 820-nm GaAlAs diode laser. By measuring the relative light absorption of water vapor over a solution and over a pure water reference, the water activity in the solution is determined. Fast, nonintrusive, and selective measurements are demonstrated. The detection limit for measuring a relat

Churches of Sweden and the Parish Churches of Halland: Comments on the “Churches of Sweden”, the Parish Church Project and the first report from the project, which presents the parish churches of Halland.

We have developed a new way of accessing biological databases and bioinformatics applications on the Internet. This new service, bioinformatics wireless application protocol (BioWAP) service, which is accessible by mobile devices makes it possible to access bioinformatics services, where normal PC or personal digital assistant (PDA) connections are not feasible. The BioWAP service includes major b

CYP3A metabolic activity varies between individuals and is therefore a possible candidate of influence on the therapeutic outcome of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of CYP3A metabolic activity on the plasma concentration and outcome of imatinib in CML patients.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen berör det så kallade "struktur och rörelse"-problemet som är centralt inom datorseendefältet. Målet är att givet tvådimensionella bilder av ett föremål, kunna återskapa dess tredimensionella form och koordinater i rummet, dvs strukturen, samtidigt med kamerans position relativt objektet i varje bild, dvs rörelsen. Inom robotiken kallas tekniken för "simultaThis thesis presents contributions to structure-and-motion estimation, a central topic in the field of geometric computer vision. In particular, the problem of view planning is considered, and continuous and discrete optimization-based algorithms are given for how to plan the path of a sensor to its destination, while balancing the competing goals of path length and reconstruction accuracy.
