Chronic myeloid leukemias and 5% to 20% of acute lymphoid leukemias are characterized by the Philadelphia chromosome, a reciprocal chromosomal translocation, t(9;22)(q34;q11), generating BCR-ABL and ABL-BCR fusion genes. Cytogenetic studies have recently shown a preferential involvement of the paternally derived chromosome 9 and the maternally derived chromosome 22 in this translocation, indicatin
In order to achieve optimal diagnostic performance in breast tomosynthesis (BT) imaging, the parameters of the imaging chain should be evaluated. For the purpose of such evaluations, a simulation procedure based on the Monte Carlo code system Penelope and the geometry of a Siemens BT system has been developed to generate BT projection images. In this work, the simulation procedure is validated by
Renovascular hypertension (RVH) is the direct consequence of renal artery stenosis (RAS). Most RAS patients have dis¬seminated atherosclerosis, with > 6 times greater risk of cardiovascular death than age-matched controls. Elevated levels of angiotensin II and aldosterone lead to detrimental effects both through hypertensive injury and activation of profibrotic and atherosclerotic pathways. The re
Wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA) is an interference-limited system. When the system operates at nearly full capacity, admitting another user may affect the stability of the system. Therefore, proper Call Admission Control (CAC) is crucial and should balance between Quality of Service (QoS) requirements for the new user and also for the existing users and at the same time keep the acc
Evaluation, prioritization and selection of candidate requirements are of tremendous importance and impact for subsequent software development. Effort, time as well as quality constraints have to be taken into account. Typically, different stakeholders have conflicting priorities and the requirements of all these stakeholders have to be balanced in an appropriate way to ensure maximum value of the
Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is a mandatory feature of the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Long Term Evolution. This work investigates the performance of a low complexity channel estimator for LTE terminals with an emphasis on the 4 × 4 multiple antenna scheme. The presented work extends a promising low-complexity 2 × 2 MIMO channel estimator to the 4 × 4 MIMO case and evaluat
Collective effects in MAX IV 3 GeV storage ring are strongly enhanced by the combination of low emittance, high current and small effective aperture. Three passive harmonic cavities (HC) are introduced to lengthen the bunches, by which beam stabilization is anticipated via decoupling to high frequency wakes, along with Landau damping. The role of the transverse impedance budget of the MAX IV 3 GeV
Wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA) systems are interference-limited. When a WCDMA system operates at nearly full capacity, admitting a new user may affect its stability. Therefore, proper call admission control (CAC) is crucial and should balance between quality of service (QoS) requirements for the new user as well as for the existing users and the required high capacity. In this pape
In this work we implement features for IEEE 802.11ac in the NS-3 simulator, in particular wider channels and bit-error calculations for higher modulation coding schemes. We also implement four wireless LAN deployment scenarios from the 802.11ax working group scenario document, and evaluate their performance under different operating conditions. Our simulation results demonstrate that many nodes in
ABSTRACTObjectivesAn emerging body of research reveals a heightened risk of gambling problems among elite athletes, particularly among males, but these studies often suffer from small sample sizes and lack diverse representation across sports and groups. This study aimed to investigate gambling problems and their correlates among elite male and female ice hockey players in Sweden’s top leagues.Met
Patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) commonly develop symptoms and signs in the 1-2 years before diagnosis that can result in changes to medications. We investigate recent medication changes and PDAC diagnosis in Nurses' Health Study (NHS; females) and Health Professionals Follow-up Study (HPFS; males), including up to 148,973 U.S. participants followed for 2,994,057 person-years
We introduce a novel method for extracting a fragmentation model directly from experimental data without requiring an explicit parametric form, called Histories and Observables for Monte-Carlo Event Reweighting (HOMER), consisting of three steps: the training of a classifier between simulation and data, the inference of single fragmentation weights, and the calculation of the weight for the full h
Syftet med studien var att undersöka unga kvinnors upplevelser av sexualisering i reklam samt vilka hanteringssätt de använde sig av för att hantera detta i sitt vardagliga liv. Undersökningen grundades i kvalitativ metod med en kritisk realistisk ansats där tematisk analys och semantisk kodning tillämpades för att bearbeta datan. Sju kvinnliga studenter vid Lunds Universitet deltog i semi-struktu

In 1945, a young Hungarian man is being treated at a Swedish hospital after being freed from a concentration camp. The doctors tell him he is sick and has no more than six months to live. But he refuses to give up, wants to find a wife with whom he can sta

Object tracking algorithms and motion triggered alarms are often dis- turbed by shadows. It is challenging to separate between moving objects and shadows since they have similar movement patterns and image prop- erties. In this thesis, three different approaches to detect shadows are developed and evaluated. The identified shadows determine what parts of the image not to track and what alarms to i
Våldtäkter i Sverige är ett fenomen som fått mycket belysning i media, men där det funnits ganska lite forskning om hur profilerna på de som begår brotten ser ut. Gärningsmannaprofilering har ett värde i att det kan hjälpa polisen avgränsa sökområdet, men profilering är också en disciplin inom forskningen där det funnits stora skillnader mellan olika länder. Därför är det viktigt att det bedrivs fRape is a criminal phenomenon that is widely recognized in Sweden, both journalistically and politically, but where research concerning the offenders' profiles is very sparse. Offender profiling is a valuable investigative tool which may help law enforcement limit their search parameters and prevent information overload. However, there are national disparities between crime scene actions and b
The Burkini, a swimwear that covers the entire body except but the face, hands and feet, was banned from French beaches in 2016 and created a heated debate in French and international media. This study focuses on the politics of the Burkini, where politicians’ arguments against the Burkini are divided into three major themes: (1) the Burkini as oppressive, (2) the Burkini as a threat to the social
This thesis is oriented around designing the world first inelastic hyperspectral LiDAR(Light Detection and Ranging) system for aquatic use. The system was designed around the task of monitoring zooplankton and environmental indicators in water. Scheimpflug lidar was previously developed for monitoring flying insects, aerosols and gases. Here we extend the concept to inelastic hyperspectral ranging ca
Polismyndigheten använder sig av olika arbetsmetoder i sitt brottsförebyggande arbete. Metoder som är kontroversiella och ofta omdiskuterade är de som benämns som okonventionella spaningsmetoder. Till denna grupp hör bland annat provoktion. Det som är av intresse att uppmärksamma när provokation som polisiär arbetsmetod diskuteras är hur den nuvarande regleringen på området ser ut, vilka problemThe police use different working methods in their crime prevention work. Methods that are controversial and often debated are referred to as unconventional reconnaissance methods. To this group belongs, among other things, provocation. When provocation discussed it is of interest to pay attention to the current regulation, what problems the provocation is usually associated with and if an alterat
Digital financial services have long been known as key tools in increasing women's financial inclusion, independence, and social mobility. However, the exact method in how these services should be most effectively deployed is still up for debate. Women have continuously been excluded from the financial sector, in large part due to restrictive cultural and gender norms inhibiting their independ
