Flexgrid technology has recently been presented as the most promising option for upgrading the currently operating fixed grid optical networks and extending their capacity to be able to deal with the massive traffic volumes forecast for the next decade. Although the current traffic is successfully supported on fixed grid networks, flexgrid technology brings features that are not offered by the fix
Kulturartikel om Sjöwall-Wahlöö och den nya filmserien Beck, fristående från romanerna.
Falls and fractures share several common risk factors. Although past falls is not included as an input variable in the FRAX calculator, we demonstrate that FRAX probability predicts risk of incident falls in the MrOs Sweden cohort.
An integrated method for clustering of QRS complexes is presented which includes basis function representation and self-organizing neural networks (NN's). Each QRS complex is decomposed into Hermite basis functions and the resulting coefficients and width parameter are used to represent the complex. By means of this representation, unsupervised self-organizing NNs are employed to cluster the data

In this study we present the genetic analysis of freshly collected garlic landraces (Allium sativum L.) along an eco-geographical transect from northeastern to western Iran covering seven different provinces using ISSR and RAPD markers. A total of 52 polymorphic loci were detected among 31 landrace populations. The percentage of polymorphic bands, the mean effective number of alleles, and the mean
A common assessment of postural control often involves subjects standing on a compliant surface, such as a foam block, to make balance tests more challenging. However, the physical properties of the foam block used by different researchers can vary considerably. The objective of this study was to provide an initial approach for investigating whether two of the foam properties, i.e. density and ela
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by accumulation of oxidized lipoproteins, increased cell death and hypertrophic degeneration of the arterial intima. The disease process is associated with local formation of modified self antigens that are targeted by both innate and adaptive immune responses. Although it remains to be firmly established it is likely that these autoi
Popular Abstract in Swedish Många av dagens stora folksjukdomar, såsom cancer, diabetes och hjärt-kärlsjukdomar, kopplas i allt högre grad samman med olika riskfaktorer som beror på förändringar i arvsmassan. Dessa nya kopplingar har möjliggjorts tack vare den extrema utveckling av genetiska mätmetoder som har skett under de senaste 15 åren. Med de nya metoderna kan förekomsten och aktiviteten hosThis thesis deals with methods for extracting robust and relevant information from high-dimensional data sets, and statistically guided visualization methods for representing the data in an informative and easily accessible way. High-dimensional data sets are becoming increasingly prevalent in many different scientific disciplines. In this thesis, we focus particularly on so called "omics" data. T
Venous thrombosis is a major medical problem annually affecting millions of individuals worldwide. It is a typical multifactorial disease, the pathogenesis involving both environmental and genetic risk factors. A single point mutation in the gene of coagulation factor V (FV), which results in the replacement of Arg506 with a Gln (FV Leiden) is the most common genetic risk factor known to date. The

Systemic or intracerebral delivery of neural stem and progenitor cells (NSPCs) and activation of endogenous NSPCs hold much promise as potential treatments for diseases in the human CNS. Recent studies have shed new light on the interaction between the NSPCs and cells belonging to the innate and adaptive arms of the immune system. According to these studies, the immune cells can be both beneficial
