  2. 6. Patient experiences of the radiotherapy process and treatment

    Author : Kristina Olausson; Björn Zackrisson; Lena Sharp; Ulrika Östlund; Birgitta Johansson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cancer; radiotherapy; radiation skin reactions; patient experience; treatment environment; anxiety; person-centred care; questionnaire.; onkologi; Oncology;

    Abstract : BackgroundMost cancer patients undergo external radiotherapy (RT) at some stage during their treatment trajectory. RT is often associated with unfamiliar procedures where the technical environment, side effects and interaction with staff seem to play a major role in the patient’s treatment experience. READ MORE

  4. 7. Titanium-Based Negative Electrode Materials for Rechargeable Batteries : In Search of the Redox Reactions

    Author : Tatiana Koriukina; Kristina Edström; Egbert Figgemeier; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lithium-ion batteries; sodium-ion batteries; MXenes; perovskite oxides; redox reactions; XPS; Kemi med inriktning mot materialkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Materials Chemistry;

    Abstract : Rechargeable batteries, particularly, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have proven to be stable and reliable energy storage devices over the past few decades. The rapid demands regarding battery applications and the pressure to move away from the fossil fuel era drive the search for new materials for better rechargeable batteries for electric vehicles, renewable energy storage, and portable electronics.

  5. 8. STUDY OF BACTERIAL COMMUNITIES : – A WASTEWATER TREATMENT PERSPECTIVE

    Author : Adrian Rodriguez Caballero; Erik Dahlquist; Elzbieta Plaza; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : Activated sludge; COD removal; Constructed wetland; DGGE; FISH; Molecular microbiology; Nitrification; PCR; Wastewater treatment.; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the application of molecular microbiology methods to understand wastewater treatment bio-reactions is described. Two different wastewater treatment systems were chosen for the experimental work. READ MORE

  6. 9. Pharmacogenetics and Antipsychotic Treatment in Schizophrenia with Special Focus on Adverse Drug Reactions

    Author : Arzu Gunes; Marja-Liisa Dahl; Maria Gabriella Scordo; Kristina I. Melkersson; Jürgen Brockmöller; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medicine; Pharmacogenetics; schizophrenia; antipsychotic treatment; adverse effects; clinical outcome; Medicin;

    Abstract : Genetically determined differences in drug metabolism and disposition and drug targets play a pivotal role in the interindividual variability in the clinical outcome of antipsychotic treatment. The aim of this thesis was to study the impact of polymorphisms in genes involved in the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of antipsychotics, with special focus on their extrapyramidal and metabolic adverse effects.

  7. 10. On-site wastewater treatment : Polonite and other filter materials for removal of metals, nitrogen and phosphorus

    Author : Agnieszka Renman; Per-Erik Jansson; Lars D. Hylander; Gunno Renman; Björn Klöve; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; alkaline materials; heavy metals; mechanisms; nutrient removal; sorption; speciation modelling; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik;

    Abstract : Bed filters using reactive materials are an emerging technology for on-site wastewater treatment. Chemical reactions transfer contaminants from the aqueous to the solid phase. Phosphorus is removed from domestic wastewater by sorption to filter materials, which can then be recycled to agriculture as fertilisers and soil amendments. READ MORE
