BACKGROUND: Subclinical myocardial injury has been reported in newborns with fetal weights < 2 SDs for gestational age. Intrauterine growth restriction might affect cardiac function and coronary flow (CF). METHODS: Seventeen newborns with intrauterine growth restriction and 15 age-matched healthy controls were enrolled in the study. Blood flow in the umbilical artery and maternal uterine artery wa

Abstract in UndeterminedA series of comprehensive large eddy simulations of non-premixed turbulent hydrocarbon flames of different sizes in a typical fire scenario have been carried out to compute the flame radiative heat transfer. In the simulation, considerations include the modelling of sub-grid turbulence, turbulent combustion, soot formation, thermal radiation and interactive heat transfer in

The understanding of condensation of multiple bubbles is of importance to improve the continuum models for the large-scale subcooled flow boiling. The CFD modeling for condensation of multiple bubbles has been developed with the Volume of Fluid (VOF) method in this work. An explicit transient simulation is performed to solve the governing equations along with the VOF equation and source terms for

Heated buildings induce a heat flow from the building foundation into the ground. The topic of this thesis is the thermal process in the ground and, in particular, the heat losses from the building to the ground. Foundations of the three types slab on the ground, cellar, and crawl-space are dealt with. The crawl-space is treated in separate report. A reasonably complete theory for the thermal pro

Continuous supermacroporous chromatographic columns with anion-exchange ligands [2-(dimethylanlino)ethyl group] and immobilized metal affinity (IMA) ligands (Cu2+-loaded iminodiacetic acid) have been developed allowing binding of Escherichia coli cells and the elution of bound cells with high recoveries. These poly(acrylamide)-based continuous supermacroporous columns have been produced by radical

Recent advances in the understanding of the epidemiology of osteoporosis suggest that certain parts of the current European guidelines for the registration of drugs in osteoporosis might be no longer substantiated. The object of this review is to provide the European regulatory authorities with an evidence-based working document providing suggestions for the revision of the "Note for guidance for

I Sverige kom det första undantaget från turordningsreglerna 1994 med syftet att upprätthålla balansen mellan arbetstagarnas trygghet och verksamheternas behov av flexibilitet. Sedan 2001 är undantaget i turordningsreglerna begränsat till två personer och gäller för företag med högst tio anställda. År 2020 är tvåundantaget återigen uppe för diskussion om ändring i och med betänkandet SOU 2020:30, In Sweden the first exception concerning turn rules was accepted in 1994 with the purpose to maintain the balance between employment protection and the companies need for flexibility. Since 2001 the exception concerning turn rules is limited to two employees for organisations with at most ten employees. In the year of 2020 the exception within the turn rules is up for discussion once again hence t

The conventional method to manufacture prosthetic arms is a time-\\consuming and complicated process. It is a process that has many manual steps that allow much room for human errors. With today's technology advancement it is possible to offer a more efficient technology that can replace the conventional manufacturing method of prostheses. This master thesis aims to develop a new way of manufa

Enantioselective synthesis is an important research topic with applications in drug development. Asymmetrical catalysis is one of the available ways of producing enantioenriched products. C2-Symmetric dibenzo[a,e]cyclooctenes or dbCOTs are a family of versatile chiral ligands for transition metals. They display great efficiency and enantioselectivity in 1,2- and 1,4- additions reactions. In this

To reduce the use of resources, as well as to minimize the effluents of carbon dioxide; we need to use our products for a longer time. Repairs makes that possible and is considered a key strategy to move towards a more circular economy (CE). Sweden recently presented its CE action plan, which includes few direct initiatives that would foster repairs. Therefore, through a literature review, policy

Regional integration on the African continent has been promoted for decades as a means to sustained economic development in Africa, with multiple agreements on the continent to stimulate such integration. Many countries are members of these regional integration organizations on the basis of increasing intra-regional trade and cooperation. This study is a comparative analysis between two countries

The aim of this thesis work was to form and characterize model systems of cell membranes on planar supports and in micropipettes. Firstly, supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) were formed on glass slides after an existing experimental procedure. It was shown possible to obtain fluid SLBs from different kinds of lipids as well as on glass slides that were cleaned with different techniques. Custom-writte

Move-to-play is a musical instrument for persons with both cognitive and physical impairments, who would have trouble playing traditional instruments. Everyone, no matter their abilities, are given the chance to play and control music by moving their own body. This project is part of the MISK project, which is a collaboration between Certec, Furuboda folkhögskola and Eldorado resurscenter. To make

Efterfrågan av alkoholfri öl ökar och det finns många olika anledningar till att dricka alkoholfri öl såsom graviditet, religion, arbete eller om man ska köra bil. Men det finns idag ingen enkel och billig metod för att producera välsmakande alkoholfri öl. De vanligaste metoderna för att producera alkoholfri öl på marknaden är utspädning, destillation, omvänd osmos samt att inte fermentera vörten.The demand of alcoholic free beer is increasing and there are many reasons to choose alcoholic free beer such as pregnancy, religion, work or before driving. But today there doesn’t exist a simple, cheap method to produce well tasting alcoholic free beer. The existing methods on the market to produce alcoholic free beer are dilution, distillation, reverse osmosis and to avoid fermenting the wort.

In China, the past 30 years have been characterized by economic growth and rapid development that has transformed the nation into an important player on the international market. This phenomenal progress probably would have been impossible without the cheap labor force provided by the Chinese countryside in the form of migrant workers. Millions of rural people circulate the nation today in order t

Background: Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is the preferred first-line diagnostic tool for evaluating lymphadenopathy due to its minimally invasive nature and cost-effectiveness. However, cytopathological interpretation of lymph node FNAB remains challenging because of the wide morphological spectrum of lymphoid lesions.
