  2. 16. Incidence and interval breast cancers in retrospective assessment

    Author : Kerstin Moberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Breast neoplasm; mammography screening; computer aided detection; interval breast cancer; incidence breast cancer;

    Abstract : The aims of this thesis were to investigate how different review methods used for radiological classification of breast cancers would affect the proportion judged to be false negative, to investigate how computer aided detection (CAD) would affect screening sensitivity, to study the balance between false positive and false negative results and to investigate patient outcome in relation to review result. In a mass screening programme in Stockholm, commencing in 1989 and performed at five independent screening units, interval cancers (presenting in the time interval between two consecutive screening examinations) from two of the units, 103 women, and incidence cancers (diagnosed at subsequent screening examination) from one of the units, 117 women, diagnosed up until July 1993 were identified.

  4. 17. Upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor : modelling

    Author : Raul Rodriguez; Luis Moreno; Olle Wahlberg; Gunno Renman; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; wastewater; anaerobic treatment; modelling; UASB reactor.; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract : Anaerobic treatment is widely used around the world as a biological stage in both domestic and industrial wastewater-treatment plants. The two principal advantages of anaerobic over aerobic treatment are the production of biogas, which can be used as fuel, and the lower rate of biomass production, which results in lower maintenance costs for the plant.

  5. 18. Simplicity within Complexity : Understanding dynamics of cellular networks by model reduction

    Author : Olivia Eriksson; Jesper Tegnér; Arne Elofsson; Yishao Zhou; Stefan Bornholdt; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; model reduction; cellular networks; dynamical modules; delayed piecewise linear; systems biology; Biochemistry; Biokemi; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Cellular networks composed of interactions between genes, proteins and metabolites, determines the behavioural repertoire of the cell. Recent developments in high-throughput experimental techniques and computational methods allow static descriptions of these networks on a genome scale. READ MORE

  6. 19. Computational Analysis and Modeling Techniques for Monolithic Membrane Reactors Related to CO2 Free Power Processes

    Author : Faruk Selimovic; Värmeöverföring; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Oxygen Transfer Membrane OTM ; High Temperature Heat Exchanger HTHEX ; Monolithic Heat Exchanger; Advanced Zero Emission Power Plant AZEP ; Mixed Ionic-Electronic Conducting Membranes MIEC ; Computational Fluid Dynamics CFD ;

    Abstract : Funded by European Community and Swiss government research project AZEP (Advanced Zero Emission Power Plant), the project was carried out at the Department of Energy Sciences at Lund Faculty of Engineering (LTH). The project addressed the development of a specific, zero emissions, gas turbine-based, power generation process to reduce local and global emissions in a cost-effective way. READ MORE

  7. 20. Multiple perspectives on health promotion in individuals with knee pain

    Author : Charlotte Sylwander; Ingrid Larsson; Emma Haglund; Maria Andersson; Ulf Jakobsson; Högskolan i Halmstad; []

    Abstract : Chronic musculoskeletal pain impacts the individual in multiple aspects of life (biological, psychological, and social). Individuals with knee pain have a higher risk of developingchronic widespread pain and knee osteoarthritis, compared to the general population, and the prevalence of chronic pain is estimated to rise.
