Molecular analyses of the relationships of placental mammals have shown a progressive congruence between mitogenomic and nuclear phylogenies. Some inconsistencies have nevertheless persisted, notably with respect to basal divergences. The current study has aimed to extend the representation of groups, whose position in the placental tree has been difficult to establish in mitogenomic studies. Both
Unusually high CO2 concentrations were frequently observed during stable nights in late summer 2006 at the CarboEurope-Integrated Project (CEIP) forest site in Norunda, Sweden. Mean CO2 concentrations in the layer below the height of the eddy-covariance measurement system at 30 m reached up to 500 mu mol mol(-1) and large vertical and horizontal gradients occurred, leading to very large advective
High spectral resolution (0.004 cm(-1)) infrared solar absorption measurements Of CO, C2H6, and HCN have been recorded with the Fourier transform spectrometer located at the Network for the Detection of Stratospheric Change complementary station at the University of Wollongong, Australia (34.45 degreesS, 150.88 degreesE, 30 m above sea level). The time series covers March 1997 to February 1998. Pr
Low body mass index (BMI) is a well-documented risk factor for future fracture. The aim of this study was to quantify this effect and to explore the association of BMI with fracture risk in relation to age, gender and bone mineral density (BMD) from an international perspective using worldwide data. We studied individual participant data from almost 60,000 men and women from 12 prospective populat
This thesis is an empirical and theoretical exploration of the surprising finding that people often may fail to notice dramatic mismatches between what they want and what they get, a phenomenon my collaborators and I have named choice blindness. The thesis consists of four co-authored papers, dealing with different aspects of the phenomenon. Paper one presents an initial set of studies using a co
Context. On the order of 20% of the very metal-poor stars in the Galaxy exhibit large carbon enhancements. It is important to establish which astrophysical sites and processes are responsible for the elemental abundance patterns of this early Galactic population. Aims. We seek to understand the nature of the progenitors of three main-sequence turnoff Carbon-Enhanced Metal-Poor (CEMP) stars, CS 310
Background: The aim of this study was to provide normative data of bone mineral density (BMD; g/cm(2)) of the forearm and the calcaneus, evaluated by peripheral dual X ray absorbtiometry (DXA), in children aged 6 to 7 years of age and to evaluate the association with anthropometrics and sex. Materials and methods: 368 boys and 326 girls with a mean age of 6.7 +/- 0.4 years participated. BMD was me
From a control design point of view, modern diesel engines are dynamic, nonlinear, MIMO systems. This paper presents a method to find low-complexity black-box dynamic models suitable for model predictive control (MPC) of NOx and soot emissions based on on-line emissions measurements. A four-input-five-output representation of the engine is considered, with fuel injection timing, fuel injection dur
At the University Hospital of Malmo, Sweden, standardized trauma charts were used for registration of all jaw fractures from 1972 to 1976. During the year 2005 the aim was to interview all patients treated non-surgically for unilateral mandibular condylar fractures during this period. In total, 49 patients with unilateral condylar fractures were treated non-surgically in 1972-1976. Of these, 23 pa
Background: Oral contraceptive use has been associated with an increase in the risk of breast cancer in young women. We examined whether this association is seen in women at high risk of breast cancer because they carry a mutation in one of two breast cancer susceptibility genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2. Methods: We performed a matched case-control study on 1311 pairs of women with known deleterious BRCA1

This Master thesis work was performed in Ericsson AB, Lund. It studies and validates two classes of algorithms to be used in mm-wave massive MIMO antenna arrays, for their use in the future 5G mobile communication systems. The first class of algorithms relates to the calibration of the transceiver (TRX) chains responses of the antenna array and makes use of the antenna array mutual coupling, which

The status of our roads and the possibility to monitor the conditions of them are becoming more and more important due to the steady increase of vehicles populating them. This thesis aims to improve a system for which purpose is to gather data about the status of roads, which the Swedish company Klimator develops. With more frequently measured roads saltand plowing efforts could be optimized and i
Popular science summary Non steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are among the most consumed pharmaceuticals worldwide, and thus belong to the most frequently identified pharmaceuticals in aquatic environments. Until now multiple examinations have shown adverse effects of NSAIDs on life functions of aquatic organisms even in low concentrations. However, there is still lack of data about toxic
Abonnemang blir en allt vanligare avtalsform. Det kan handla om allt från tjänster som mobiltelefoni till att leasa en bil. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka vilka konsumentskydd som erhålls på den svenska abonnemangsmarknaden. Studien använder sig av två metoder, rättsdogmatisk metod och en rättssociologiska metod. Den rättsdogmatiska metoden används för att redogöra vilka skydd som erhålls oSubscriptions are becoming a more popular form of agreement. It can be anything from a mobile plan to leasing a car. The purpose of the thesis is to investigate which consumer protection is obtained in the Swedish subscription market. The study uses two methods, legal dogmatic method and a legal sociological method. The legal dogmatic method is used to identify which protections are obtained and t
In nature, for example through mechanical degradation (e.g., plastic waste in the sea) and through the exposure to UV-radiation, plastics can degrade to microplastics and eventually to even smaller plastic nanoparticles. Studies performed under laboratory conditions have shown that plastic nanoparticles can accumulate in the liver and the brain of fishes, hence plastic nanoparticles can cause brai
How mice avoid diseases, a measure of divergence The response we have to diseases vary from person to person. In much the same way diseases affect and are battled in many different ways depending on the species. This happens due to differences in their immune system. So, what causes these differences? Well, they are mostly caused by differences in the DNA, the molecule which has the code for ever
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate what factors, if any, are most prevalent in the valuation of small cap stocks, with limited ownership as compared to their fundamental values, where crowd based trading and insights do not necessarily prevail. Methodology: A deductive and comparative study realized in quantitative research based upon a sample selection of smaller companies. Find
