Breast cancer is one of the most common cancer types with almost 1,700,000 cases and greater than 500,000 deaths each year worldwide. This represents approximately one new case and one death every 20 and 60 seconds, respectively. Breast cancer has garnered considerable scientific attention because of the high incidence. Traditionally, patients are classified into three distinct clinical subtypes d
The result of using a Common Point of Reference framework decision base, to implement implicit information patterns, aimed to support business decisions during the initial phases of change and improvement projects, was examined in this study. Participants (n=30) were asked to solve four different assignments with a decision base as support consisting of fictive change project data from a fictive m
Applications based on Wireless Sensor Networks are making their way into all kinds of industries. Today, they can do anything from off-loading hospitals by monitoring patients in their homes to regulating production lines in factories. More often than not, they perform some kind of surveillance and tracking. Thus, in most cases the information they carry is sensitive, rendering good encryption sch
Being stateless, roughly means being without a citizenship of any nation. This is the definition of being stateless in legal terms, called de jure statelessness. There is also statelessness that entails being without the efficient protection of one’s nation, called de facto statelessness. Two groups of stateless migrants that correspond to these definitions are Bidoons from Kuwait and Palestinians
I mål om intrång i förfarandepatent finns särskilda svårigheter med bevisningen. Uppsatsens syfte är därför att utreda bevisproblematiken i mål om förfarandepatentsintrång. Utöver detta ska uppsatsen besvara frågeställningar kring huruvida ett processrättsligt medel kan lösa problemet och även hur man vinner framgång i mål utan att avslöja affärshemligheter. I mål där materialet är ofullständigtIn the case of infringement of method patent there is special difficulty regarding the evidence. The purpose of this essay is therefore to investigate the problem of evidence in cases of infringement of method patent. In addition, the essay is going to answer questions about whether a procedural legal remedy can solve the problem and also if it is possible to achieve success in such a case without
Förekomsten av tekniska standarder är fundamental för den tekniska utvecklingen och medför flera konkurrensfördelar. Standardisering kan emellertid riskera att vara konkurrenshämmande i samband med patentinnehavares användning av de rättsmedel som står till deras förfogande. Så är fallet när patenterad teknik implementeras i standarder och får status som standardessentiella patent. I utbyte mot deThe presence of technical standards is fundamental to the technical development and entails several competitive advantages. Standardization may, however, risk being anticompetitive in relation to patent holders’ use of legal remedies available to them. This is the case when patented technology is implemented in standards and is given the status as standard essential patent. In exchange for the pos
The most common thermally insulated packaging used today is plastic-based and customer behavior towards plastic materials has changed rapidly in recent years. The Meal Kit Industry has a particular need for insulated packaging/cool pouch (CP) and is looking to shift from plastic materials to more paper-based ones. Unfortunately, paper-based insulated packaging hasn’t been completely developed in t
Solen är bara en utav miljardtals stjärnor i Vintergatan - vår hemgalax. Likt en myrstack kan Vintergatan som helhet vid en första anblick verka simpel. Men när man tar en närmare titt upptäcker man att varje invånare har sitt eget liv, vilket bidrar till en komplex natur. Därför blir det svårt att få information om Vintergatans omfattande egenskaper genom att undersöka enskilda stjärnor. Men precThe use of reliable distance estimates is key to derive accurate three-dimensional velocities of celestial objects. Systematic overestimation and large uncertainties in the distances will thus provide misleading information of an object's kinematics. In turn, astronomers will get a flawed understanding of dynamical properties of substructures in the Milky Way. In this paper, we employ the imp
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate an alternative way of management within physical systems engineering development (PSED), a term which represents all fields of engineering where physical components are involved. More specifically, analysing how agile methodologies can be applicable with the use of technological advancements to overcome the restrictions hindering the increase of efficie
På Danmarks Meteorologiska Institut har två index, TI3 och TI4, utvecklats i syfte att lokalisera riskområden för clear air turbulence (CAT). Indexen är ännu inte i operationellt bruk. Deras samband med andra parametrar i DMI-HIRLAM är inte känt och studeras här genom tre situationsstudier. CAT utgör en fara för flygtrafiken och bra prognoser av detta fenomen är nödvändigt. Att två olika index anvTwo indices, TI3 and TI4, have been presented at the Danish Meteorological Institute with the purpose to indicate clear air turbulence (CAT). The indices are not yet in operative use. The correlation between the indices and other parameters in DMI-HIRLAM is not known and is investigated in three case studies. CAT is a hazard to aviation and accurate prediction of CAT is important. The use of two i
With better understanding of the properties and mechanical behavior of wood fiber composites such as wood particle boards the final structure can be improved, both from a solid mechanical and cost effective perspective. Particle boards are widely used in today’s industry for consumer products and the mechanical properties for such materials and how it is effected by the mix of wood chips and glue
So far, the Standard Model (SM) has been very successful in describing non-gravitational interactions of fundamental particles. However, many of its theoretical and experimental shortcomings remain unresolved. In collider searches, Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) signatures are expected to manifest themselves as localised excesses of events in the invariant mass lineshape of their decay products.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Prostatacancer är idag den vanligast diagnostiserade cancerformen i Sverige. De flesta nya fallen som upptäcks är lokaliserade till prostatan och kan i hög utsträckning botas med antingen operation eller strålbehandling. För en del män har dock prostatacancern hunnit sprida sig redan vid diagnos och då är chansen till bot mycket liten. Vid utbredd spridning, så kallad mProstate cancer is one of the most common malignancies. Its treatment is highly dependent on the presence or absence of metastases. The available invasive and non-invasive modalities for detecting metastases are imperfect. Positron-emission tomography fused with computed tomography (PET/CT) is a non-invasive method for detecting metastases that is presently evaluated for prostate cancer. Fluoride
The global surgery workforce is in crisis in many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The shortage of surgery, obstetrics, and anesthesia providers is an important cause of the unmet need for surgical care in LMICs. The goal of this paper is to summarize the available literature about surgical physicians in LMICs and to describe ongoing initiatives to supplement the existing surgical workfor
“1000 Extra” is a project that takes off in the sub optimal conditions that city planning in the 20-th century has left behind for the future. First and foremost looking at the conditions of residential areas planned based on doctrines stemming in modernism, the project proposes desnsifying the not-so-dense areas in Lund, consisting of row houses and other residential buildings in the same categor
