Many patients with outlet obstruction secondary to prostatic enlargement have lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTSs) and an increased frequency of micturition. The standard treatment is transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), which alleviates obstruction and symptoms. However, after TURP, 20–40 percent of patients continue to experience LUTSs. The aim of the present study in rats was to iden
RATIONALE: Vascular calcification is a prominent feature of late-stage diabetes, renal and cardiovascular disease (CVD), and has been linked to adverse events. Recent studies in patients reported that plasma levels of osteomodulin (OMD), a proteoglycan involved in bone mineralisation, associate with diabetes and CVD. We hypothesised that OMD could be implicated in these diseases via vascular calci
BACKGROUND: Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) is often misdiagnosed or conflated with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) due to overlapping clinical presentations and neuropathological features. The presence of AD-like features correlates with accelerated cognitive decline and a worse overall prognosis. Compared to AD, studies suggest that amyloid uptake in DLB may spare the occipital lobe. This project aims
Let tau(n) be the first time a queueing process like the queue length or workload exceeds a level n. For the M/M/1 queue length process, the mean Etaun and the Laplace transform Ee(-staun) is derived in closed form using a martingale introduced in Kella and Whitt (1992). For workload processes and more general systems like MAP/PH/1, we use a Markov additive extension given in Asmussen and Kella (2
Att skriva är en sammansatt förmåga. Det är svårt att i ord formulera vad en skicklig skribents kompetens består i, och därför också svårt att undervisa i skrivande. Ett problem vid bedömning av texter är ofta att både studenter och lärare har svårt att formulera vad som gör en bra text. Här kan metatexter vara ett stöd, för både studenter och lärare. Erfarna lärare har i regel inga problem att b
Public service organizations rely on IT systems to fulfill their missions. IT incidents are more and more frequent and the impacts of IT incidents on the organizations are getting more severe. There is a strong need to manage risks on service related IT systems in public service organizations. Risk management process practiced in software development companies cannot be used in public service orga
Ecosystem modelling is an always evolving science trying to catch the complexity of the nature and its principles to model environmental responses in a realistic way. Over and over, models try to introduce more variables and interactions to achieve better representations of phenomena of interest like the responses of the ecosystem to a fast changing world (climate change, land use change).

Vid entreprenadprojekt uppkommer ofta tvister rörande entreprenörens rätt till tidsförlängning och ersättning för merkostnader. Vid sådana tvister kan det vara svårt för entreprenören att visa vad som har orsakat den händelse som entreprenören menar ger rätt till tidsförlängning eller ersättning, och hur stort behovet av tidsförlängning eller merkostnader är. Dessa svårigheter har lett till utveckIn construction projects it often arise disputes concerning the contractor’s right to an extension of time and compensation for extra costs. In these disputes it can be challenging for the contractor to prove what has caused the effect that the contractor consider entitle to extension of time or compensation for extra costs, and how great the need for an extension of time or extra costs are. Such
Sedan införandet av det kommunala planmonopolet 1947 till följd av den bostadssociala utredningen har planlagstiftningen reformerats flertalet gånger. I förevarande examensarbete studeras den historiska utvecklingen av både det kommunala planmonopolet och dess tillhörande planlagstiftning. Examensarbetet syftar till att studera hur det kommunala planmonopolet kommit att utvecklas och om reformerSince the introduction of the municipal planning monopoly in 1947 following the Housing Social Investigation, the planning legislation has been reformed several times. In this thesis, the historical development of both the municipal planning monopoly and its associated planning legislation is studied. The aim of the thesis is to examine how the municipal planning monopoly has evolved and whether
The dynamic ecosystem model LPJ-GUESS combines sophisticated plant physiological and biogeochemical processes and has been successfully used in predicting vegetation dynamics at different scales. However, the water cycling is limited to vertical water movement between the atmosphere plant-soil. Thus we have developed an enhanced version of LPJ-GUESS (called LPJ-DH) by coupling water routing and la
This thesis was done in collaboration with the department of Food Technology at LTH, Aventure AB, and Arwa Foodtech AB. The aim of the project was to develop the base for a baobab based, spoonable protein snack, comparable to quarg but free from ingredients of animal origin. At the time of writing, one of the biggest if not the biggest trend in the food industry is the replacement of animal-source
This thesis consists of four self-contained papers in applied microeconomics. The first paper asks how a neighbors purchase of a specific good affects a households likelihood of purchase. I use an image classification algorithm to process a large set of aerial photos in order to infer household ownership of a visible durable good, specifically a trampoline. To estimate the neighborhood effect, I u
Den allmänna rösträtten har genom historien varit något som människor be-hövt kämpa för. Idag kan man tycka att det ska vara en självklarhet att alla människor är berättigade lika och allmän rösträtt, men så har fallet långt ifrån alltid varit. Så sent som 1965 såg man till att alla svarta medborgare i USA tilläts utöva sin rätt att rösta. I Sverige, Storbritannien och USA finns det många likhetUniversal suffrage has throughout history been something people have had to fight for. Today, it may seem self-evident that all people are equally entitled to universal suffrage, but this has far from always been the case. As recently as 1965, measures were taken to ensure that all Black citizens in the United States were allowed to exercise their right to vote. In Sweden, Great Britain, and the
