  1. 1. Internal fixation of femoral neck fractures

    Author : Leif Hernefalk; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Femoral neck fracture; osteotomy; internal fixation; device; technical principles; scintimetry; radiography; biomechanics; malposition; malreduction; complications; bone necrosis; revascularization; segmental collapse; non-union; elderly; osteoporosis; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : The incidence of femoral neck fractures in elderly people is rising requiring large health care resources. Internal fixation of the fracture is the treatment of choice in Scandinavia, but in 20-40% of the cases a late complication such as a segmental collapse of the femoral head after initial bone necrosis, or a non-union of the fracture because of non-healing, will occur.

  2. 2. Photonic multipartite entanglement : Generation, measurement and applications

    Author : Massimiliano Smania; Mohamed Bourennane; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantum information; entanglement; Bell tests; POVM; device-independent; self-testing; quantum optics; prepare-and-measure; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : We are currently witnessing a fundamental change in the field of quantum information, whereby protocols and experiments previously performed in university labs are now being implemented in real-world scenarios, and a strong commercial push for new and reliable applications is contributing significantly in advancing fundamental research. In this thesis and related included papers, I first look at a keystone of quantum science, Bell's theorem. READ MORE

  3. 3. The Clinical Appearance of Pelvic Inflammatory Disease in Relation to Use of Intrauterine Device in Latvia : A Study with Special Emphasis on Factors Influencing the Clinical Course of PID in IUD Users

    Author : Ilze Viberga; Viveca Odlind; Gunilla Lindmark; Babill Stray-Pedersen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medical sciences; pelvic inflammatory disease; complicated pelvic inflammatory disease; contraception; intrauterine device; reproductive history; microbiology; anaerobes; surgery; gynecologist; practice; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : The objectives of this case-control study, investigating 51 in-patient women with acute pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and 50 healthy women attending for routine gynecological check-up, were to investigate the background and reproductive history of women, who are considered at low risk of sexually transmitted infection presenting with PID, to examine whether intrauterine device (IUD) use per se and long use affects the microbiology and clinical course of the disease, to identify risk factors for PID and to examine whether IUD use is an independent risk factor for PID.The most striking difference regarding the background and reproductive history between women with PID and healthy women over age 25 were related to socio-demographic factors and not to common risk factors for PID.

  4. 4. Molecular Doping of Epigraphene for Device Applications

    Author : Hans He; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular Doping; Graphene; epitaxial graphene; THz; Metrology; Hall Effect;

    Abstract : Epitaxial graphene grown on silicon carbide, or epigraphene, offers in principle a suitable platform for electronic applications of graphene which require scalable, reproducible, and high-quality material. However, one of the main drawbacks of epigraphene lies in the difficulty in controlling its carrier density, which hinders its usefulness in future applications. READ MORE

  5. 5. Exploring the Elegant Bell Inequality

    Author : Irina Dumitru; Ingemar Bengtsson; Marcin Pawłowski; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bell inequality; Symmetric Informationally Complete POVM; Device Independent Certification; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : In quantum information, device independent certification is a matter of both practical and fundamental interest. In this thesis, we explore the use of a particular Bell inequality, known as the elegant Bell inequality, in device independent certification. READ MORE
