  1. 1. Improved diagnosis and prediction of community-acquired pneumonia

    Författare :Alicia Edin; Anders F. Johansson; Anders Sjöstedt; Annika Allard; Thomas Schön; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Community-acquired pneumonia; infection; diagnosis; qPCR; metabolites; metabolomics;

    Sammanfattning : Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although there is wide variation in the microbial etiology, CAP may manifest with similar symptoms, making institution of proper treatment challenging. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Interplay between soft and hard processes in quantum chromodynamics

    Författare :Anders Edin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Radiation sciences; Strålningsvetenskap; Radiation biology; Strålningsbiologi; högenergifysik; High Energy Physics;

    Sammanfattning : In QCD, the theory of strong interactions, hard processes with large momentum transfers can be calculated using perturbation theory, while soft processes with small momentum transfers are poorly understood. In this thesis, phenomenological models of soft and hard QCD processes are developed and tested. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Two facets of Innovation in Engineering Education : The interplay of Student Learning and Curricula Design

    Författare :Anders Berglund; Sofia Ritzén; Martin Edin Grimheden; Margareta Norell Bergendahl; William Ion; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Engineering education; innovation; design; learning elements; student; change; Ingenjörsutbildning; innovation; design; lärandeelement; student; förändring;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis covers two main perspectives ofinnovation; first, innovation is regarded as an outcome-related mechanism wherelearning is expressed through artefact presentations at the end of adevelopment process; second, innovation comprises a change mechanism in theprocess of student learning, influencing educators to reconsider new methods andpractices. Building on qualitative data from engineering design courses, theaim has been to explore how learning elements in engineering educationinfluence students during early-phase innovation. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Context dependent adaptation of biting behavior in human

    Författare :Anders Johansson; Benoni Edin; Karl-Gunnar Westberg; Peter Svensson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; EMG; bite force; human; mastication; muscles; jaw opening reflex; motor control; reflex modulation; periodontal attachment loss; periodontitis; fysiologi; Physiology;

    Sammanfattning : The focus of this thesis was to study an action that humans perform regularly, namely, to hold a morsel between the teeth and split it into smaller pieces. Three different issues related to this biting behavior were addressed:  (1) the effect of redu­c­ed perio­dontal tissues on food holding and splitting behavior; (2) the behavioral conse­quences of performing different bite tasks with different functional requirements, i.

  7. 5. Discrimination, Sickness Absence, and Labor Market Policy

    Författare :Jonas Lagerström; Per-Anders Edin; Peter Fredriksson; Alan B. Krueger; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Economics; Discrimination; Unobserved heterogeneity; Absenteeism; Social experiment; Active labor market policy; Program evaluation; Nationalekonomi; nationalekonomi; Economics;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation consists of an introduction and four self-contained essays:Essay 1 (with Stefan Eriksson) investigates empirically whether being unemployed per se reduces the probability of getting contacted by a firm. Individuals registered at the Swedish employment offices post their qualifications in a database available to employers over the Internet. LÄS MER
