  2. 1. Environmental levels of thallium : influence of redox properties and anthropogenic sources

    Author : Ulrika Karlsson; Stefan Karlsson; Anders Düker; Roger Herbert; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; thallium; Tl I ; Tl III ; separation; ion chromatography; fresh water; sediment; mine waste; fly ash; redistribution; ICP-MS; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Thallium is a highly toxic element that humans are exposed to mainly by consumption of drinking water and vegetables grown in soil with high thallium content but also through inhalation of particles in the air. Thallium is also present in fossil fuels, alloys, and in electronic utilities. READ MORE

  4. 2. Dynamics of macroeconomic and financial variables in different time horizons

    Author : Hyunjoo Kim Karlsson; R. Scott Hacker; Catherine L. Mann; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This dissertation consists of an introductory chapter and four papers dealing with financial issues of open economies, which can be in two broad categorizations: 1) exchange rate movements and 2) stock market interdependence. The first paper covers how the exchange rate changes affect the prices of internationally traded goods. READ MORE

  5. 3. Aerosol–cloud interactions in a warming Arctic

    Author : Linn Karlsson; Paul Zieger; Radovan Krejci; Annica M. L. Ekman; Birgit Wehner; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aerosols; clouds; aerosol-cloud interactions; Arctic; climate; field studies; Environmental Sciences; miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Atmospheric aerosol particles are small liquid or solid particles suspended in the air. They are present in the atmosphere all around us and affect the planetary energy balance by scattering and absorbing radiation and by interacting with clouds. In model projections of future climate, aerosol–cloud interactions contribute a lot of uncertainty. READ MORE

  6. 4. Pharmacometric Methods and Novel Models for Discrete Data

    Author : Elodie L Plan; Mats O Karlsson; Laura Sargentini-Maier; Armel Stockis; Christian Laveille; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacometrics; pharmacodynamics; disease progression; modelling; discrete data; count; ordered categorical; repeated time-to-event; RTTCE; RCEpT; NONMEM; FOCE; LAPLACE; SAEM; AGQ; pain scores; epilepsy seizures; gastroesophageal symptoms; statistical power; simulations; diagnostics; PHARMACY; FARMACI; Pharmacokinetics and Drug Therapy; Farmakokinetik och läkemedelsterapi;

    Abstract : Pharmacodynamic processes and disease progression are increasingly characterized with pharmacometric models. However, modelling options for discrete-type responses remain limited, although these response variables are commonly encountered clinical endpoints. Types of data defined as discrete data are generally ordinal, e.g. READ MORE

  7. 5. Pharmacometric Models for Improved Prediction of Myelosuppression and Treatment Response in Oncology

    Author : Angelica L Quartino; Mats O Karlsson; Lena E Friberg; Etienne Chatelut; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; pharmacometrics; oncology; myelosuppression; chemotherapy; pharmacokinetics; pharmacodynamics; PHARMACY; FARMACI; Pharmacokinetics and Drug Therapy; Farmakokinetik och läkemedelsterapi;

    Abstract : Chemotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of cancer. However, these drugs also cause death of non-malignant cells, resulting in severe side-effects. In addition, drug resistance may exist. Predictive tools for dose and drug selection are therefore warranted. READ MORE
