The measurement of subtle morphologic beat-to-beat variability in the electrocardiogram (ECG)/vectorcardiogram (VCG) is complicated by the presence of noise which is caused by, e.g., respiration and muscular activity. A method was recently presented which reduces the influence of such noise by performing spatial and temporal alignment of VCG loops. The alignment is performed in terms of scaling, r

Fishing expedition and the Nordic legal systems on discovery and disclosure

The report summarises the project Design based on quantitative risk. The project has been divided into five parts; model uncertainty, fire statistics, design values based on reliability index beta method, quantitative risk analysis and cost optimisation. The report gives a short description on all parts and refers to the more detailed reports from the project. In total 16 publications have been pr

Purpose: The detection of malignant tumours relies on a variety of diagnostic procedures including X-ray images and, for hollow organs, endoscopy. The purpose of this study was to present a new technique for non-invasive tumour detection based on tissue fluorescence imaging. Material and Methods: A clinically adapted multi-colour fluorescence system was employed in the real-time imaging of maligna

Jesper Svenbro samtalar med sociologen Lena Lindgren om sin hemstad Landskrona och om tidens och platsens roll för vad som kan sägas och tänkas

Although Chinese journalists are not able to create their own independent organisations, they are engaging in informal networking on-line and off-line that has created a strong sense of community among investigative journalists in particular. Through sharing experiences, stories, and struggles, journalists create a collective identity and define their roles in society. Earlier studies of Chinese j

Carotid surgery prevents recurrent stroke in patients with symptomatic tight stenosis of the carotid artery. The Swedish Carotid Surgery Monitoring Registry seeks to promote selection of patients with significant spontaneous risk for recurrent stroke, with an eye toward expediting evaluation and minimizing surgical complications. To this end, professionals at participating hospitals are informed a

Popular Abstract in Swedish Synkrotronstrålning genereras när laddade partiklar som färdas med relativistiska hastigheter böjs av i ett magnetfält. Under accelerationen som böjningen utgör genereras synkrotronstrålning i en smal kon i partikelns framåtriktning. Denna fotonstrålning är intensiv och utgör en användbar prob inom materialforskningen. Genom att belysa material med synkrotronstrålningenWithin research, synchrotron radiation is a highly useful probe for the study of materials, their properties and structures. Currently, no other radiation source allows the combination of high intensity and short wavelengths. The 3rd generation light sources currently in use for the production of synchrotron radiation are however considerable investments: for already existing facilities this makes

Excitation of the chassis enables single-antenna terminals to achieve good bandwidth and radiation performance, due to the entire chassis being utilized as the main radiator. In contrast, the same chassis excitation phenomenon complicates the design of multiple antennas for MIMO applications, since the same characteristic mode of the chassis may be effectively excited by more than one antenna, lea

Building on the view of massive modularity, a number of generalized assumptions lead to an entirely new concept of functional brain modules. In contrast to the nerve centers usually considered to be active in the brain, these modules, called symbions, are non-localized, non-hierarchical, and based on subcellular molecular mechanisms rather than on neurons. They act according to local rules that ma
