Popular Abstract in Swedish Inledning För att kunna sätta in resurser där de behövs bäst, finns det en önskan att kunna förutsäga vilka graviditeter som kommer att bli komplicerade. Vid preeklampsi (havandeskapsförgiftning), tillväxthämning hos fostret samt blodproppssjukdom finns det idag inget säkert sätt att tidigt i graviditeten veta vilka som kommer att drabbas. Denna oförmåga att kunna föruThe aim of this thesis was to improve background knowledge for making a reliable medical evaluation at the first visit of a woman in her 13th gestational week, to the antenatal clinic. We have focused on the prediction and the risk estimation of preeclampsia, intra-uterine growth restriction (IUGR), and thrombosis. The thesis was based on five studies, in which we have evaluated biochemical analy

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingens syfte är att belysa relationerna mellan lokal praktik och statlig styrning med utgångspunkt i hur efterkrigstidens välfärdspolitik förändrade livsbetingelserna i ett antal byar i norra Sveriges inland. Tre teman knyter samman diskussionen. Det första temat knyts till frågorna kring hur det nordsvenska inlandet omvandlats under efterkrigstiden och till hur The aim of this dissertation is to investigate the relationship between local practices and state steering by examining how post-World War II welfare policy changed the life conditions in a number of small villages in northern Sweden. Three themes tie the discussion together. The first theme revolves around questions about how the northern Swedish inland region was transformed in the post-war peri

High-resolution spectroscopy measurements have been performed using near-infrared diode lasers. Special emphasis was placed upon high accuracy absorption lineshape measurements, which provide the basis for quantitative gas analysis. For this purpose, relevant spectral characteristics of the radiation emitted by diode lasers were studied. High-resolution measurements using newly developed long-wave

The aim of this work was to determine the extent to which soot is formed and if there are any ways of reducing the formation of soot. In order to determine if soot formation will be a critical issue for the reverse flow reforming process modeling of the process was undertaken. The reformer was modeled using a detailed reaction mechanism to describe the kinetics of soot formation.The results of the

Decentralised and scalable conditions for robust stability of networks of heterogenous linear time-invariant (LTI) systems are derived based on integral quadratic constraints. These generalise previous works in the literature with an increased flexibility in the choice of multipliers employed. The results allow for arbitrary interconnection matrices and accommodate multi-input-multi-output systems

Twin and family studies have established that there is a strong genetic basis for autism spectrum disorders. To facilitate the identification of susceptibility genes and to study pathways from gene-brain to cognition a more refined endophenotype-based approach may be useful. The purpose of the present study was to examine the neurocognitive endophenotype of autism, in families with multiple incide
