  1. 1. Biomarkers of acute kidney injury

    Author : Johan Mårtensson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and potentially fatal complication in critically ill patients. The diagnosis relies on functional markers of decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR) such as creatinine. Unfortunately, a rise in plasma creatinine lags behind the early structural changes that occur in response to various renal insults. READ MORE

  2. 2. Investigations on Emission Sources in Proton-Nucleus and Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions

    Author : Johan Mårtensson; Partikel- och kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; High energy interactions; Fysik; Physics; correlation function.; fermion interferometry; t p and d p ratios; target mass dependence; pion angular distribution; pion excitation function; Heavy ion reactions; intermediate energy; cosmic rays; Kosmisk strålning; högenergi;

    Abstract : Emission sources in proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions at intermediate energies have been studied. Pion excitation functions from the absolute threshold to 500 MeV have been measured with an ion beam of continuously varying energy with an energy resolution of 1 MeV. READ MORE

  3. 3. Regimented language training : Changes to brain and behaviour following intensive non-native language learning

    Author : Johan Mårtensson; Institutionen för psykologi; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Cortical thickness; Hippocampus; Plasticity; Language acquisition; Associative memory; Transfer; Education;

    Abstract : The influence of foreign-language acquisition on adult brain structure remains mostly unexplored. Whilst several cross-sectional studies have led to further understanding of how language can affect brain structure, only a few longitudinal studies have been conducted. READ MORE

  4. 4. Adapting to increased automation in the aviation industry through performance measurement and training : Barriers and potential

    Author : Johan Rignér; Lena Mårtensson; Pernilla Ulfvengren; Don Harris; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industrial work science; Industriell arbetsvetenskap;

    Abstract : The increased use of automation has affected the work on the flight deck. The Single European Sky ATM Research (SESAR), deployed with the purpose to increase the European ATM system performance, identifies automation as a key enabler to increase future system performance. The aviation system is a complex large socio-technical system. READ MORE

  5. 5. The application of microfluidic devices and multifunctional fibers in cancer diagnostics

    Author : Tharagan Kumar; Aman Russom; Fredrik Laurell; Gustaf Mårtensson; Johan Kreuger; KTH; []
    Keywords : Circulating tumor cells; microfluidics; point of care; inertial microfluidics; elasto inertial microfluidics; nano-cellulose; layer-by-layer; optical fiber; microflow cytometer.; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : Efficient separation and detection of rare cells in a mixed population is important in many biomedical applications. For instance, isolating and detecting circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from whole blood samples could allow for early cancer diagnosis and prognosis during treatment. READ MORE
