Barnobesitas är sedan flera år ett ökat hälsoproblem bland barn. Obesitas vid 4 års ålder ger en kraftigt ökad risk för obesitas senare i livet. Att förebygga uppkomst och utveckling av obesitas är en långsiktig investering för framtiden. Idag finns ingen evidensbaserad metod för vägledning inom barnhälsovården för att främja hälsosamma levnadsvanor och förebygga obesitas hos förskolebarn. Det övePrevention of childhood obesity with its effects on children’s mental and physical health and well-being is an international public health priority and is suggested to be effective when started early. As Child Health Services lack an evidence-based model, there is the need for development of a low-intensive health promotion model that is feasible and cost-effective in preventing obesity in prescho

Hippocampal atrophy is endemic in ‘normal aging’ but it is unclear what factors drive age-related changes in medial temporal lobe (MTL) structural measures. We investigated cross-sectional (n = 191) and longitudinal (n = 164) MTL atrophy patterns in cognitively normal older adults from ADNI-GO/2 with no to low cerebral β-amyloid and assessed whether white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) and cerebro

In this paper, a measurement campaign for massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel characterization in both line-of-sight (LoS) and non-LoS outdoor environments is introduced. The measurements are conducted at the center frequency of 15 GHz with a bandwidth of 4 GHz. A virtual 40× 40 planar antenna array formed by stepping a vertically-polarized bi-conical omni-directional antenna (OD

In this paper, a recently conducted measurement campaign for High-Speed-Train (HST) channels is introduced where the down-link signals of in-service Long Time Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) networks deployed along a HST railway between Beijing to Shanghai were acquired. The channel impulse responses (CIRs) are extracted from the received Cell-specific Reference Signals (CRSs). The results show that, m

Cellular-connected unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have recently attracted a surge of interest in both academia and industry. Understanding the air-to-ground (A2G) propagation channels is essential to enable reliable and/or high-throughput communications for UAVs and protect the ground user equipments (UEs). In this contribution, a recently conducted measurement campaign for the A2G channels is in

During the last few years, with the decrease of their sizes and costs, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) became more feasible for their use in general-purpose applications. As an important basis for UAV applications, the Air-to-Ground (A2G) radio propagation channel has gained attention in the channel modeling literature. However, whereas the A2G propagation channel is inherently dynamic (time-varyi

Due to the decrease in cost, size, and weight, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are becoming more and more popular for general-purpose civil and commercial applications. Provision of communication services to UAVs both for user data and control messaging by using off-the-shelf terrestrial cellular deployments introduces several technical challenges. In this article, an approach to the air-to-ground

This paper investigates the wideband channel characteristics obtained in a classroom and a hall indoor scenarios at 2-4, 9-11 and 27-29GHz. A virtual uniform circular array (UCA) based channel sounding system was utilized to capture wideband spatial channel characteristics. The propagation parameters of multipath components (MPCs) were estimated by using a high resolution parameter estimation (HRP

Millimeter-wave with ultrawide bandwidth available and ability to pack massive number of antennas in a small area is considered the key enabler for future generation communication systems. Accurate understanding and modeling of the ultrawideband propagation channel with large-scale array configuration is essential. In this contribution, a realistic spherical-propagation signal model considering th

The unmanned-aerial-vehicle (UAV) has attracted great interests in both civil and military applications, due to its low cost, flexibility and ability to establish seamless coverage. In this paper, a Universal Software-defined Radio Peripheral (USRP) based channel sounding system for characterizing the UAV communication channel is introduced, which can be applied in both active and passive measurem

In this paper, a recently conducted measurement campaign for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) propagation channel characterization is introduced. Two vehicles carrying a transmitter and a receiver, respectively, have been driven along an eight-lane road with heavy traffic. The measurement was conducted with 100 MHz signal bandwidth at a carrier frequency of 5.9 GHz. Channels are observed consisting of two

Extracellular vesicles are released during infectious, inflammatory and prothrombotic conditions. These are membrane-derived vesicles shed by cells during activation, senescence and/or apoptosis. Extracellular vesicles contain and transfer components of the parent cell from which they are shed. During gastrointestinal infection with enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) extracellular vesicles

Precarious employment (PE) has been linked to adverse health effects, possibly mediated through psychosocial hazards. The aim of this cross-sectional study is to explore if higher levels of PE are associated with psychosocial hazards (experiences of violence, sexual harassment, bullying, discrimination, high demands, and low control) and to explore gender differences in these patterns. The study i

Objectives: An observed variation in the risk of celiac disease, according to the season of birth, suggests that vitamin D may affect the development of the disease. The aim of this study was to investigate if vitamin D concentration is associated with the risk of celiac disease autoimmunity (CDA) in genetically at-risk children. Study Design: Children prospectively followed in the multinational T

Background: Previous studies have demonstrated a high prevalence of biochemical vitamin B12 deficiency in infants in Norway. Increased total homocysteine (tHcy) is the most important marker of B12 deficiency in infants. There is a need to evaluate its clinical relevance. Aims: To investigate the prevalence of hyperhomocysteinemia (S-tHcy > 8 μmol/L) suggestive of suboptimal B12 status and the prev

The confidentiality and integrity algorithms in cellular networks protect the transmission of user and signaling data over the air between users and the network, e.g., the base stations. There are three standardised cryptographic suites for confidentiality and integrity protection in 4G, which are based on the AES, SNOW 3G, and ZUC primitives, respectively. These primitives are used for providing

Recently, a measurement campaign for characterizing the channels in underground subway environments was conducted in Shanghai, China. Downlink signals transmitted by 46 universal mobile telecommunication system cells deployed along a 34-km-long subway were collected. Channel impulse responses are extracted from the data received in the common pilot channels, based on which parameters of multipath
