2. 1. The diapause switch : Evolution of alternative developmental pathways in a butterfly

   Author : Inger Marie Aalberg Haugen; Karl Gotthard; Dan Hahn; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental plasticity; phenotypic plasticity; developmental switch; threshold trait; life-cycle regulation; direct development; Lepidoptera; zoologisk ekologi; Animal Ecology;

   Abstract : Diapause decision is a classic example of a threshold switch mechanism with cascading effects on morphology, behaviour and life-history traits. This thesis addresses the downstream effects of the insect diapause switch, with the main focus on pathway-specific regulation of life-history traits, using the speckled wood butterfly (Pararge aegeria) as a study species.

4. 2. Inhaled pharmacological treatment and critical inhaler technique errors in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

   Author : Johanna Sulku; Elisabet I. Nielsen; Alf Tunsäter; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; COPD; critical inhaler technique error; pharmacological treatment; ICS; inhaled corticosteroid; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

   Abstract : Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an inflammatory lung disease characterised by persistent respiratory symptoms and a high risk of exacerbations. Preventive and maintenance pharmacological treatment is primarily administered through handheld inhalers, which are available in several different device-drug combinations. READ MORE

5. 3. Organic electronic switch devices

   Author : Fredrik Jakobsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

   Abstract : Since the discovery of conducting polymers three decades ago the field of organic electronics has evolved rapidly. Organic light emitting diodes have already reached the consumer market, while organic solar cells and transistors are rapidly maturing. One of the great benefits with this class of materials is that they can be processed from solution. READ MORE

6. 4. Bariatric Surgery : Outcomes after Gastric Bypass and Duodenal Switch

   Author : Martin Löfling Skogar; Magnus Sundbom; Ville Wallenius; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Body composition; fat-free mass; resting metabolic rate; bariatric surgery; obesity; Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass; Duodenal Switch; air-displacement plethysmography; Bod Pod; indirect calorimetry assessment; BAROS; quality of life; weight loss; diabetes; hypertension; dyslipidmia; depression; pain; antidepressants; opioids; complications; healthcare consumption; adverse events; Surgery; Kirurgi;

   Abstract : Obesity is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. A BMI >40 kg/m2 shortens life expectancy by about 10 years. The obesity related comorbidities diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and sleep apnea contributes to the increased risk of cardiovascular events. There is also an increased risk of some forms of cancer (e. READ MORE

7. 5. Introducing Mode Switch in Component-Based Software Development

   Author : Hang Yin; Hans Hansson; Paul Pettersson; Thomas Nolte; Carlo Ghezzi; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mode switch; multi-mode; component-based; Computer Science; datavetenskap;

   Abstract : Self-adaptivity, characterized by the ability to dynamically adjust behavior at runtime, is a growing trend in the evolution of modern embedded systems. While self-adaptive systems tend to be flexible and autonomous, self-adaptivity may inevitably complicate software design, test and analysis. READ MORE
