Background: Despite the advancement of electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring methods, the most important factor influencing diagnostic yield (DY) may still be monitoring duration. Ambulatory ECG monitoring, typically with 24–48 hours duration, is widely used but may result in underdiagnosis of rare arrhythmias. Aims: This study aimed to examine the relationship between the DY and monitoring duration

The aim of this study was to evaluate real-world accuracy and use of immunohistochemical (IHC) staining in lung cancer diagnostics. Materials and Methods: The diagnosis and used IHC stains for small specimens with lung cancer on follow-up resection were retrospecti
It is becoming clear that the cognition of a species plays an important role in successful conservation, with cultural processes being a fundamental part of this. However, in contrast to mammals and birds, very little is known about cultural processes (and the social learning that underlies these) in reptiles. Here, we summarize the current state of knowledge, consider why this information is so l
Idag gäller allmän åtalsrätt som huvudregel. Målsägandens åtalsrätt aktualiseras först då åklagaren beslutar att inte åtala. Den åklagarförda processen tillerkänner dock målsäganden möjlighet att biträda åtalet och vidta processhandlingar som kan påverka ansvarsfrågan. Rätten att biträda åtalet härstammar från 1948 och motiverades aldrig i förarbetena. Uppsatsen undersöker hur målsägandens straffpThe responsibility for the criminal procedure lies mainly on the state prosecutor. The plaintiff’s right of prosecution is depending on the prosecutor’s decision to waive indictment. However, the plaintiff may participate in a way that might affect the liability issue by assisting the prosecution. The right to assist the prosecution, originating from 1948, was never justified in its legislative hi
This thesis describes the development of an autonomous weeding vehicle for the agricultural industry. It has been done as a project at RMIT University in Melbourne and the aim was to develop a design for the vehicle which could later be used to develop a commercial product. The current trend in the agricultural industry is larger machines that can benefit from economies of scale. These heavy mac
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka vad som händer när en ny musikpedagogisk idé/metod införs och etableras i ett sammanhang där det redan finns en dominerande metod. Undersökningen består utav en kvalitativ forskningsstudie med djupintervjuer av två danska Suzuki teacher trainers och med en narrativ analysmetod som verktyg. Den teoretiska utgångspunkten är ett sociokulturellt perspektiv ochThe aim of this study is to scrutinize what happens when a new music pedagogical approach is introduced in a context already dominated by another method. This is a qualitative research study using a narrative analysis method on two in depth interviews with two Danish Suzuki teacher trainers. The theoretical point of view is a sociocultural perspective and mainly cultural-historical activity theory
The RF power amplifier is one of the most critical blocks of transceivers, as it is expected to provide a suitable output power with high gain, efficiency and linearity. In this paper, a 60-GHz power amplifier based on an injection locked structure is demonstrated in a standard 65 CMOS technology. The PA core consists of a cross-coupled pair of NMOS transistors with an NMOS current source. This st
Sweden has set a climate goal that emissions generated by businesses within Sweden by 2045 should be at least 85% lower than emissions in 1990. In 2017, the construction and real estate sector accounted for 19 % of Sweden's total greenhouse gas emissions. A large part of a building's climate impact occurs during the product phase. The foundation is part of a building’s design which signifi
The cumulative growth that the market of automobiles has seen since the end of the second world war, has had a major impact on both the way we plan our societies and in the way we live our lives. In Sweden from 1950 to 1960, car-ownership increased five-fold, making it the most car-dense country in Europe at the time – bringing along with it major car-centric urban renewal schemes, such as ‘Norrma
In recent years, the raising concern about carbon dioxide emissions has been linked to not only environmental or industrial, but also financial aspects. Common financial determinants of carbon dioxide emissions analysed by previous studies include economic and financial development, financial structure, and trade openness of a country. The main aim of this paper is to investigate the financial det
De Jure Belli ac Pacis Libris Tres, av Hugo Grotius, och den westfaliska freden, i 1600-talets Europa, har ofta betonats av forskare som födelseplatsen för den moderna folkrätten. Denna studie har ämnat granska validiteten i dessa påståenden genom en rättshistorisk undersökning av omständigheterna kring texterna och en komparativ utredning dem emellan. Arbetets huvudsakliga syfte har varit att utfDe Jure Belli ac Pacis Libris Tres, by Hugo Grotius, and the Peace of Westphalia, in 17th century Europe, has often been highlighted as the birthplace of modern public international law. This study aims to review the validity of such statements through research of the legal history concerning the topic and through a comparative examination of the two works. The main purpose of the study have been
Seventeen ETV6/RUNX1-positive pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemias were investigated by high-resolution array-based comparative genomic hybridization ( array CGH), gene expression profiling and fluorescence in situ hybridization. Comparing the array CGH and gene expression patterns revealed that genomic imbalances conferred a great impact on the expression of genes in the affected regions. The
In Sweden today, power production with bioenergy systems is more costly than with fossil energy systems. New technology under development, such as integrated gasification and combined cycle technology (IGCC), and reduced biomass costs would improve the competitiveness of bioenergy systems. The CO2 mitigation costs are lower for biomass systems using IGCC technology than for natural gas systems usi
Abstract in Norwegian Bakgrunn. Fallulykker er et viktig helseproblem hos eldre. Både balansetesting og registrering av egenrapportert funksjon kan være måter å forutse fremtidige ulykker på. Materiale og metode. I en kohortstudie ble egenrapportert gangfunksjon kartlagt hos 307 tilfeldig utvalgte hjemmeboende kvinner 75 år og eldre. Kvinnene gjennomgikk også testing av balanse og gangfunksjon, oBACKGROUND: Falls represent an important health problem among the elderly. Balance testing as well as registration of self-reported balance problems may be appropriate in order to predict the risk of future falls. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Self-reported walking was assessed in 307 randomly selected women 75 years or older living at home. The women underwent testing of gait and balance and were follow
High plasma levels of oestrogens are associated with increased breast cancer risk. If smoking, as has been suggested, have both a tumour initiating mutagenic effect and a protective anti-oestrogenic effect, one would assume that smokers who give up smoking have the highest incidence of breast cancer. This was evaluated in the follow-up of a cohort of 10,902 women of whom 4,359 were premenopausal.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att utreda gränsdragningen av ett samtyckes ansvarsbefriande verkan vid misshandelsfall av normalgraden i sexuella sammanhang. Dessa fall rör sig i gränslandet mellan det straffbara och det straffria. Uppsatsen utreder gränslandet genom att se till hur ett ansvarsbefriande samtycke är uppbyggt. Det konstateras att det krävs ett giltigt samtycke och att själva gärningen inteThe purpose of this bachelor thesis is to investigate the boundary of a consent exonerating effect on assaults of the normal degree made in a sexual context. Such cases are located at the boundary between the criminal and impunity. The paper investigates the boundary area by looking at how an exonerating consent is constructed. It is noted that there is a need for a valid consent and that the act
På sexualbrottslagstiftningens område har det i Sverige under en längre tid pågått en intensiv debatt. Diskussionen rör frågan huruvida det i svensk rätt bör införas en våldtäktsbestämmelse där straffansvar grundas på ett bristande samtycke, istället för den nuvarande bestämmelsen som baseras på medel (tvång) och omständigheter (utnyttjande). Denna fråga utgör även den huvudsakliga frågeställningeIn Sweden there's an ongoing debate on the sexual offences law area. The discussion relates to whether the Swedish rape law should be a legislation where criminal liability is based on a lack of consent, rather than on coercion and exploitation, which is the current rule. This issue is also the main research question in this essay. After describing the debate and the arguments raised for and a
En fjärdedel av de homosexuella, bisexuella och transpersoner som deltagit i en stor undersökning år 2013 hade blivit utsatta för hot och våld. Personerna utsätts bland annat för att de inte tillhör normen. Enligt straffskärpningsregeln i 29 kap. 2 § 7 p. BrB är det en försvårande omständighet vid bedömningen av straffvärdet om ett motiv för en brottslig gärning varit att kränka en person, folkg
