In many biomedical contexts, e. g. when evaluating hearing disorders, the data obtained can be described as pairs (x1, y1), …, (xn, yn) where x is a quantitative variable and y a 0/1 variable whose probability of taking the value 1 is a monotonic function of x. One way of analysing such data is to perform probit regression; thereby two parameters, b0 (= the constant) and b1 (= the slope) are estim
Då HovR över Skåne och Blekinge, mål nr. B 2802-10, avkunnade sin dom den 21 september 2011 hade ytterligare en frikännande misshandelsdom behandlats av det svenska rättssystemet. Den tilltalade hade piskat målsäganden med olika redskap så att skador uppkommit. Det som skiljde detta mål från ett vanligt misshandelsmål, var att målsäganden hade samtyckt till de olika handlingarna, som en del av ettAs the Court of Appeals for Skåne and Blekinge, case no. B 2802-10, gave its judgment on September 21, 2011, was yet another acquittal assault judgment processed by the Swedish judicial system. The accused had hit the victim with different instruments in a way that caused damage to the plaintiff. However, what distinguishes this case from an ordinary assaultcase was that the plaintiff had consente
Neural electrodes used for measurements of action potentials in brain cells are often made of gold. These electrodes need to be suciently small to cover only one brain cell, but this induces the problem of increased impedance since impedance scales inversely with surface area. This means that if the surface area is too small, only noise will be measured. One way to overcome this problem is to try
30 juni 2022 trädde en omfattande ändring av lag (1982:80) om anställ-ningsskydd i kraft. Ändringarna syftade dels till att göra det lättare för ar-betstagare att komma in samt få en trygg anställning på arbetsmarknaden, dels att göra det enklare och mer flexibelt för arbetsgivare att anställa och avsluta anställningar och därmed minska riskerna med att anställa. Bland annat bytte allmän visstidOn June 30, 2022, a comprehensive amendment to the Employment Protec-tion Act (1982:80) came into effect. The changes aimed to make it easier for employees to enter and secure employment in the labor market, as well as to simplify and provide more flexibility for employers in hiring and terminating employment, thereby reducing the risks associated with hiring. Amongst other changes "general f
Background: The FTO gene harbors the strongest known susceptibility locus for obesity. While many individual studies have suggested that physical activity (PA) may attenuate the effect of FTO on obesity risk, other studies have not been able to confirm this interaction. To confirm or refute unambiguously whether PA attenuates the association of FTO with obesity risk, we meta-analyzed data from 45
Context: First-degree relatives of patients with type 2 diabetes (FH+) have been shown to have decreased energy expenditure and decreased expression of mitochondrial genes in skeletal muscle. In previous studies, it has been difficult to distinguish whether mitochondrial dysfunction and differential regulation of genes are primary (genetic) or due to reduced physical activity, obesity, or other co
Målformulering: Examensarbetet primära mål är att påvisa att de byggentreprenörer som arbetar med BIM bidrar till ett effektivare arbetssätt och ekonomiskt mervärde. Detta genom att visa att en fundamental BIM-nytta såsom mängdavtagning är en ekonomisk vinning. Syfte: Syftet är att påvisa attmängdavtagningav väggar, bärande samt rumsbildande, inklusive dörrar och fönster via BIM är ett ekonomisktPurpose: The primary purpose is to demonstrate that constructors, which use BIM, contributes to a more efficient work and economic value to the process of construction projects. This, by showing that a fundamental use of BIM in "quantity take-off” is a financial gain. Furthermore, the study aims to evaluate how projects affected by the extent of BIM-use is in current situation. Additionally,
Authors: Ellen Isakson and Malin Skohg Title: From Odyssey to Hassela’s mentoring program – an empirical study of mentoring in a new institutional perspective [translated title] Supervisor: Torbjörn Hjort The purpose of this paper was to understand how Hassela’s mentoring program could be understood from the new institutional theory of translation. To understand this we have individually intervie
In this thesis, a qualitative comparative case study has been conducted in five production companies. This has been made to get an understanding of how companies work with Lean and environmental management. Four interviews were conducted and two survey responses were received and there were eight open-ended questions where respondents were relatively free to talk about their experiences. The quest
Background. In metastatic colorectal cancer, mutation testing for KRAS exon 2 is widely implemented to select patients with wild-type tumors for treatment with the monocloncal anti-EGFR antibodies cetuximab and panitumumab. The added predictive value of additional biomarkers in the RAS-RAF-MAPK and PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathways in colorectal cancer is uncertain, which led us to systematically review the
OBJECTIVE-To evaluate the significance of GAD antibodies (GADAs) and family history for type 1 diabetes (FHT1) or type 2 diabetes (FHT2) in nondiabetic subjects. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS-GADAs were analyzed in 4,976 nondiabetic relatives of type 2 diabetic patients or control subjects from Finland. Altogether, 289 (5.9%) were GADA(+)-a total of 253 GADA(+) and 2,511 GADA(-) subjects participate

In a time full of environmental changes the need for understandings of the operational work and services, the control of the business and key figures, and flexibility to adapt to different circumstances is crucial in many organizations. In a time where national borders are getting more and more invisible and where the humans are traveling and moving more than ever it is even more important to have
There is strong evidence that climate change has a direct impact on humans and extreme temperatures have been linked to negative health impacts and increasing mortality. The heat wave of 2018 caused up to 8.2% more deaths compared to the year before in Sweden, with higher impacts in other parts of the world. The fact that people spent almost 90% of their times indoors makes the indoor environment
