  2. 1. Structure-Based Virtual Screening : New Methods and Applications in Infectious Diseases

    Author : Micael Jacobsson; Anders Karlén; Mats Kihlén; Antti Poso; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; : drug discovery; docking; scoring; virtual screening; malaria; tuberculosis; Pharmaceutical chemistry; Läkemedelskemi;

    Abstract : A drug discovery project typically starts with a pharmacological hypothesis: that the modulation of a specific molecular biological mechanism would be beneficial in the treatment of the targeted disease. In a small-molecule project, the next step is to identify hits, i.e. molecules that can effect this modulation. READ MORE

  4. 2. Tomosynthesis in pulmonary cystic fibrosis

    Author : Kristina Vult von Steyern; Lund Diagnostisk radiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cystic fibrosis; Lung; Radiation dose; Radiography; Scoring methods; Tomography; spiral computed; X-ray computed;

    Abstract : The aims of this thesis were to investigate whether chest tomosynthesis might be used in pulmonary cystic fibrosis, to design and validate a tomosynthesis scoring system, and to determine the effective dose from chest tomosynthesis in children. In a prospective study starting in 2008 clinical chest radiography or computed tomography (CT) were supplemented with a tomosynthesis examination of the lungs. READ MORE

  5. 3. Information Retrieval Using Krylov Subspace Methods

    Author : Katarina Blom; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : In this dissertation we discuss how simple Krylov subspace methods can be used for information retrieval (IR). The dissertation consists of two parts. The first part gives a background of IR and introduces the vector space model for IR and the Krylov subspace methods that we use. The second part consists of four articles. READ MORE

  6. 4. Foundation of Multi-Criteria Quality Scoring

    Author : Maria Ulan; Anna Wingkvist; Harald Störrle; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Data- och informationsvetenskap; Computer and Information Sciences Computer Science;

    Abstract : Software quality becomes more critical as our dependence on software increases. We need better quality assessment than ever. Comparison and ranking of software artifacts, detection of bad or good quality are important tasks for quality assessment.Software quality models are widely used to support quality assessment.

  7. 5. Delirium after cardiac surgery : risk factors, assessment methods and costs

    Author : Nina Smulter; Karl Gunnar Engström; Birgitta Olofsson; Micael Appelblad; Staffan Svenmarker; Henrik Bjursten; Umeå universitet; []

    Abstract : Background: Cardiac surgery is considered safe, but postoperative delirium (POD) remains frequently reported. Delirium is characterised by fluctuations in consciousness and cognition, and can be subdivided into disturbed psychomotoric activity (hyperactive and hypoactive) and psychiatric symptom profiles (psychotic and emotional).
