    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to explore routines and rituals related to feeding, eating, and mealtimes in families that have a child with a gastrostomy tube (G-tube), from the perspectives of healthcare professionals, the children, and their parents. The thesis is based on four empirical studies. READ MORE

  2. 2. Evaluating Fast and Efficient Modeling Methods for Simulation-Based Optimization

    Author : Simon Lidberg; Amos H. C. Ng; Tehseen Aslam; Marcus Frantzén; Björn Johansson; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Production and Automation Engineering; Produktion och automatiseringsteknik;

    Abstract : As the industry in general, and the automotive industry in particular, is transforming -- due to new technologies and changes in market demands through electrification, digitalization, and globalization -- maintaining a competitive edge will require better predictions. Better predictions of production performance allows companies to capitalize on opportunities, avoid costly mistakes, and be proactive about change. READ MORE

  3. 3. Safety Critical Software - Test Coverage vs Remaining Faults

    Abstract : Safety-critical software systems have traditionally been found in the aerospace-, nuclear- andmedical domains. As technology advances and software complexity increases, such systemscan be found in more and more applications, e.g. self driving cars. READ MORE

  4. 4. The role of leptin in zebrafish (Danio rerio) : Novel insights into appetite regulation and reproduction

    Author : Emmanouil Tsakoumis; Monika Schmitz; Tatjana Haitina; Åsa Wallén-Mackenzie; Ana Gómez Peris; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; zebrafish; leptin; appetite; GRN; brain; reproduction; oocyte maturation; ovulation; Biology with specialization in Comparative Physiology; Biologi med inriktning mot jämförande fysiologi;

    Abstract : The hormone leptin is a peripheral metabolic signal and an important regulator of energy balance. In mammals, leptin acts on the appetite centers in the hypothalamus, causing anorexigenic functions by inhibiting food intake. It is also considered as a link between the nutritional status and the endocrine reproductive axis. READ MORE

  5. 5. Molecular mechanisms involved in prokaryotic cycling of labile dissolved organic matter in the sea
