K-best Schnorr-Euchner (KSE) decoding algorithm is proposed in this paper to approach near-maximum-likelihood (ML) performance for multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) detection. As a low complexity MIMO decoding algorithm, the KSE is shown to be suitable for very large scale integration (VLSI) implementations and be capable or supporting soft outputs. Modified KSE (MKSE) decoding algorithm is fu

I föreliggande rapport redovisas resultaten från provningar av ett antal putssystem applicerade på mineralull. Provningarna har gjorts på provväggar cirka 5.5 x 2.5 m2. Både i praktiken förekommande system med stålnätsarmering och experimentella system har provats. Efter putsning och viss härdning har putsen utsatts för upprepade uppfuktningar /uttorkningar. Eventuell sprickbildning har studerats

A systematic assessment of radiotherapy for cancer was conducted by The Swedish Council on Technology Assessment in Health Care (SBU) in 2001. The assessment included a critical review of the literature on radiotherapy for cancer published in 1994-2001 and a prospective survey of radiotherapy practice in Sweden during 12 weeks in the autumn of 2001. The results of the survey were compared with the

Popular Abstract in Swedish I denna avhandling analyseras unga mäns vålds- och offerupplevelser. Studien bygger på olika typer av material men det mest centrala underlaget består av samtalsintervjuer med unga män som har blivit utsatta för misshandel eller rån. Sätten på vilka de unga männen talar om sig själva, förövaren, våld och offerskap utgör utgångspunkten för analysen. Inom ramen för samtalIn this dissertation, young men's experiences of being victims of crime are analysed. Several kinds of material are considered in this study, but the primary data consist of informal, tape-recorded interviews with ten young men (17 to 21 year's old) who had been assaulted or mugged. Their accounts of their experiences are analysed using a number of constructionist, interactionist, and narrative pe

The RISING (Rare ISotope INvestigations at GSI) project constitutes a major pan-european initiative to study nuclear structure in exotic nuclei. A brief outline of the technical details specific to studies of isomeric decays following relativistic projectile fragmentation reactions is presented.

A synthetic polymer selective for (S)-naproxen was prepared by molecular imprinting. 4-Vinylpyridine and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate were copolymerised in the presence of the template, (S)-naproxen. The template was extracted from the polymer, leaving specific recognition sites, complementary to the template. The polymer was utilized as a stationary phase in HPLC. Racemic naproxen was efficient

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the extent to which titanium aneurysm clips could improve the quality of MR imaging compared with stainless steel clips, and to determine whether the clip artifacts could be reduced by controlling certain MR imaging parameters in frequently used pulse sequences. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The metal artifacts induced by 3 aneurysm clips were compared in 3 p

Fluoxetine (FLX), a P-glycoprotein inhibitor with antimalarial activity, is promising candidate for reversing chloroquine/mefloquine (CQ/MQ) resistance. The Dd2 strain of CQ- and MQ-resistant Plasmodium falciparum was synchronized and assayed with various concentrations of CQ/MQ individually and in combination with FLX or verapamil (VPL). Our results indicated the 50% inhibitory concentration valu

The aim was to investigate dimensions of caregiving activities among elderly (75+) caregivers based on Nolan's model and to study the dimensions in relation to health-related quality of life (Short Form 12). Responses to a Swedish postal survey (n = 4278, response rate 75-79 years old: 60%; 80-84: 56%; 85-89: 48% and 90+: 42%) showed that 783 persons (18%) were helping another person due to that p

PURPOSE: To report a case of aortoenteric fistula secondary to endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) exclusion using the Stentor bifurcated endovascular graft. METHODS AND RESULTS: Seventeen months after a successful endovascular AAA procedure, a male patient developed upper gastrointestinal bleeding. An aortoenteric fistula was diagnosed. At operation, the endograft fabric was found to be

Glycosylation and sulfation are two of the essential post-translational modifications of proteins. The slalom gene encodes a 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate transporter, a conserved protein found in organisms as diverse as plants and humans and required for sulfation of proteins. In Drosophila, slalom is exclusively expressed in salivary glands, which is unexpected, taken into account the ge
