  1. 1. Automated feature detection in multidimensional images : a unified tensor approach

    Författare :Einar Heiberg; Klas Nordberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Manual identification of structures and features in multidimensional images is at best time consuming and operator dependent. Feature identification need to be accurate, repeatable and quantitative. This thesis presents a unified approach for automatic feature detection in multidimensional scalar and vector fields. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Formal and informal care in an urban and a rural elderly population : who? when? what?

    Författare :Gunilla Nordberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :ADL; aging; caregiving; cost of care; dementia; disability; formal care; functional status; informal care; in-home care; observational study; population-based; RUD; rural; spouses; urban;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explored informal and formal care in relation to physical and mental functioning in an urban and a rural setting in Sweden. Three different study populations were used: eight cohabiting couples where one of the spouses was the primary caregiver for a partner with dementia; an urban and a rural elderly population (75+ years) participating in the Kungsholmen Project in central Stockholm; or the Kungsholmen-Nordanstig Project in the county of Hälsingland.

  4. 3. The effect of a text-messaging intervention on retention in care for women living with HIV and their infants in Kenya

    Författare :Björn Nordberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Retention in prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV care is crucial to reduce vertical HIV transmission, and to improve the health and survival of women living with HIV and their infants. HIV-related stigma, social concerns, and non-disclosure of HIV status are barriers to participate in PMTCT care, which potentially could be addressed by supporting women with an interactive text-messaging intervention.

    Författare :Kathrin Wode; Per Fransson; Roger Henriksson; Lena Sharp; Johanna Hök Nordberg; Vinjar Magne Fønnebø; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; oncology; epidemiology; evidence-based medicine; neoplasms; pancreatic neoplasms; adult; integrative oncology; complementary therapies; treatment refusal; communication; physician-patient relations; mistletoe; palliative care; quality of life; cross-sectional studies; qualitative research; randomized controlled trial; Sweden; Europe; medicin; Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) are non-conventional health care approaches used in parallel with or instead of conventional medicine. Little is known about Swedish patients’ patterns of complementary CAM use in the context of cancer. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Xylan degradation by the thermophilic bacterium Rhodothermus marinus. Characterization and function of a thermostable xylanase

    Författare :Eva Nordberg Karlsson; Bioteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fed-batch cultivation; kraft pulp; bleaching; glycosyl hydrolase family 10; recombinant xylanase; polysaccharide binding domain; Biotechnology; Bioteknik;

    Sammanfattning : A gene encoding a multidomain xylanase from the thermophilic bacterium Rhodothermus marinus has been cloned, sequenced and produced in Escherichia coli . The gene product was found to be a 109 kDa protein consisting of five domains. LÄS MER
