Objective: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex multi-organ disease, characterised by relapses and remissions. Designing a high-quality randomised controlled trial poses many challenges. We have developed evidenced-based recommendations for points to consider in conducting clinical trials in patients with SLE. Methods: The EULAR Task Force on SLE comprised 19 specialists and a clinical

In this paper we address the problem of projective reconstruction of structure and motion given only image data. In particular we investigate three novel minimal combinations of points and lines over three views, and give complete solutions and reconstruction methods for two of these cases: "four points and three lines in three views", and "two points and six lines in three views". We show that in

While the Transformer architecture has become ubiquitous in the machine learning field, its adaptation to 3D shape recognition is non-trivial. Due to its quadratic computational complexity, the self-attention operator quickly becomes inefficient as the set of input points grows larger. Furthermore, we find that the attention mechanism struggles to find useful connections between individual points

Denna kandidatuppsats är en kvalitativ undersökning över hur länder i en rykteskris använder nationsvarumärkning och mjuk makt för att motverka negativa stereoty- per och förbättra sitt globala rykte. Nationsvarumärkning beskrivs som ett strate- giskt verktyg för att förbättra ett lands rykte och attraktivitet genom olika mark- nadsförings- och varumärkesmetoder. Flerstegsmodellen introduceras som

Background: Under inflammatory conditions, T cell-dependent (TD) protein antigens induce proinflammatory T-and B-cell responses. In contrast, tolerance induction by TD antigens without costimulation triggers the development of regulatory T cells. Under both conditions, IgG antibodies are generated, but whether they have different immunoregulatory functions remains elusive. Objective: It was shown

Smart charging of electric vehicles can reduce cost by scheduling against time-varying electricity spot prices, but commercial systems generally rely on day-ahead prices and capture only within-day variation. This thesis investigates whether forecasting spot prices beyond the day-ahead horizon adds value for vehicle-integrated smart charging, and how that value varies across charging contexts. A t

This thesis compares Auto Regressive Moving Average (ARMA) and Generalized Auto Regressive Conditional Heteroscedacity (GARCH) models for three metal commodities. ARMA models have an unconditionally non-random and constant variance, which typically serves well in effectively representing homoscedastic data. The GARCH models feature variable variance that is non-random when conditioning on the past

In this paper, an inventory model with finite and constant replenishment rate, price dependant demand rate, time value of money and inflation, finite time horizon, lead time and exponential deterioration rate and with the objective of maximizing the present worth of the total system profit is developed. Using a dynamic programming based solution algorithm, the optimal sequence of the cycles can be

Introduction: Complicated perianal disease (cPD) may be the sole presentation of Crohn’s disease (CD). The role of small-bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) in the diagnostic algorithm of cPD is unclear. We aimed to evaluate the role of SBCE as a diagnostic tool, in patients with cPD, after a negative standard workup for CD. Methods: A multicenter, retrospective, cross-sectional study, in patients with
