The effects of hypobaric pressure chamber exposure was measured in noise in ten patients with monaural fluctuating low-frequency hearing loss (FLFHL) such as Meniere's disease using psychophysical tuning curves (PTC), transiently evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAE), binaural pitch matches and speech recognition scores (SRS) in noise. In the literature, reversible hearing losses have been observed

"Vi har problem med Adventsuppropet och den privilegierade ställning som den kristna tron förutsätts ha i det, skriver 18 pastorer och församlingsledare."

Vid Byggnadsmaterial LTH studerar vi biologisk påväxt på putsade fasader. Förutom mögel och bakterier som inte gör fotosyntes, så är samtliga andra organismer som växer på fasader fotosyntetiskt aktiva: alger, lavar och mossor. Vårt huvudintresse ligger i att beskriva samspelet mellan klimatet (främst temperatur och fukt) på fasaden, typ av fasad (isolering, putstjocklek, ytskikt, färgtyp etc.) oc

An analysis of the Swedish art cinema as an institutional practice, considered as the art film canon, the film criticism, and the field of cinema studies.

The fragmentation dynamics of the SF6 molecule following the excitations of S 2p electrons into unoccupied molecular orbitals has been studied using the energy-resolved electron–ion coincidence technique. Fragmentation patterns were found to depend on the particular excitation and on the electronic state of the molecular ion. The spectator resonant Auger decay at the 2p → 6a1g resonance induces ch

This paper presents a Fisher information based Bayesian approach to analysis and design of the regularization and preconditioning parameters used with gradient based inverse scattering algorithms. In particular, a one-dimensional inverse problem is considered where the permittivity and conductivity profiles are unknown and the input data consist of the scattered field over a certain bandwidth. A p

Endovascular aortic repair of aortic pathologies has become widely spread among vascular surgeons. Much focus has been directed at perfecting and developing endovascular procedures to treat evermore-complex issues. Much less focus has been directed at the radiation hazards to patients as well as operators and staff when such procedures are performed. Radiation exposure must be used according to th

The role of quantitative risk analysis as a foundation for decision making, regarding hazardous activities and establishments, has gained increased importance during the last decades. When performing a quantitative risk analysis, a wide range of uncertainties will inevitably be introduced during the process. The impact of these uncertainties must somehow be addressed if the analysis is to serve as

Anti-Ro(52/60) and anti-La constitute the hallmark autoantibodies in primary Sjögren's syndrome, being present in 40-70% of sera. Several anti-Ro/La assays exist, but antibody detection appears to be assay-specific, thus the aim of this study was to compare several anti-Ro/La assays. In total, 96 sera from individuals with primary Sjögren's syndrome and 114 healthy controls were tested for anti-Ro
