Factors Contributing to Detrusor Overactivity - Obstruction, Hypertrophy and Afferent Nerve Stimulation

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det är välkänt att utflödesobstruktion kan leda till förstoring av blåsan med åtföljande minskning av kontraktionskraften, något som kan påvisas både in vivo och in vitro. I arbete I undersöktes därför om det fanns regionala skillnader i blåsmuskelfunktion hos kaniner med experimentell utflödesobstruktion. Efter 2 veckors obstruktion utfördes cystometri och därefter undThe consequences of bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) with respect to detrusor hypertrophy, structural and functional changes, and obstruction-induced detrusor overactivity were investigated in vivo and in vitro utilizing various animal models. Possible pathophysiological pathways and therapeutic approaches were tested by drug treatment and the use of knockout models. Furthermore the role of estrog

Endosonography of the anal spincter in women with particular reference to obstetric sphincter tears

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund Anal inkontinens, dvs. oförmåga att kontrollera gasutsläpp eller defekation, är ett fysiskt och psykiskt invalidiserande tillstånd med inte sällan avsevärda svåra sociala konsekvenser. Gradering sker efter om inkontinensen gäller gas, lös eller fast avföring samt efter frekvens: 1g/månad, 1g/vecka eller dagligen (Wexner incontinence score). Anal inkontinens kaThe aim of this thesis was to study the endosonographic morphology of the anal sphincter in women, to establish an endosonographic sphincter defect score and to relate it to anal incontinence and anal sphincter pressure. A further aim was to determine intra-observer and inter-observer agreement in detection of endosonographic anal sphincter defects. An endosonographic anal sphincter defect classif

A wavelet analysis of solar mean magnetic field measurements

Solar mean magnetic field (SMMF) measurements from the Wilcox SolarObservatory and with SOHO/MDI are analyzed using continuous wavelettransforms, SMMF variability is found at a number of temporal scales.Detected SMMF variations with a 1-2 year period is considered to belinked to long-term variations in the internal rotation of the Sun.Intermediate SMMF oscillations with a period of 80-200 days are

Safety Concept and Design for Fire Resistance of Steel Structures

This paper is aimed at describing the principles on which are based the current concepts of fire engineering design of steel structures. The first part deals with the design methods for fire safety through the definition of heat exposure and structural models. The second part reviews the state of art in structural fire calculation methods, according to different levelsof assumption.

Traffic engineering of multiple spanning tree routing networks: the load balancing case

This paper deals with optimal load balancing in telecommunication networks based on multiple spanning tree routing. This is the case in switched Ethernet networks where the operator configures different routing spanning trees and assigns each demand VLAN to one of the spanning trees. We consider modeling and solving three load balancing objectives: (i) minimization of the average link load with a

Window Decoding of Braided Convolutional Codes

We consider a window decoding scheme for Braided Convolutional Codes (BCCs) based on the BCJR algorithm. We describe the principle of this decoding scheme and show that BCCs with window decoding exhibit excellent performance. The tradeoff between performance and decoding latency is examined and, to reduce decoding complexity, both uniform and nonuniform message passing schedules within the decodin

Systems Analysis of the Impacts of the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami on Energy Supply System in Kamaishi-City

The Great East Japan earthquake and tsunami hit coastal cities in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima Prefectures of Tohoku Region devastating the energy supply system in the region. Electricity and fuel shortages caused severe problems in the city of Kamaishi varying from lack of mobility, communication, heating to reduced health conditions. This paper, aims to analyze the impacts of the earthquake and t
