  1. 1. Effects of bariatric surgery

    Författare :Magdalena Plecka Östlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Globally, 500 million people are obese (body mass index [BMI] ≥30). In Sweden, 14% of the population is obese. Obesity is associated with an increased risk of mortality, cancer and several co morbidities. Bariatric surgery is the only treatment with documented long-term benefits, i. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Evaluation of regression methods for log-normal data - linear models for environmental exposure and biomarker outcomes

    Författare :Sara Gustavsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; log-normal distribution; linear models; absolute effects;

    Sammanfattning : The identification and quantification of associations between variables is often of interest in occupational and environmental research, and regression analysis is commonly used to assess these associations. While exposures and biological data often have a positive skewness and can be approximated with the log-normal distribution, much of the inference in regression analysis is based on the normal distribution.

  4. 3. Stark Spectroscopy, Lifetimes and Coherence Effects in Diatomic Molecular Systems

    Författare :Annie Hansson; Peder Royen; Michel Herman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; diatomic; dipole moment; Stark effect; lifetimes; transition moment; coherence effects; EIT; Autler-Townes; Chemical physics; Kemisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : In this dissertation is exemplified how different laser based methods are applied in high-resolution spectroscopic studies of internal properties of diatomic molecules.A molecular beam apparatus assembly is described, where a laser ablation source is combined with a time-of-flight mass spectrometer.

  5. 4. Topics in multifractal measures, nonparametrics and biostatistics

    Författare :Attila Frigyesi; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; confidence interval; mixed effects; Statistics; operations research; programming; actuarial mathematics; Statistik; operationsanalys; programmering; aktuariematematik; operational model of pharmacological agonism; concentration-response curves; dose-response curves; ventilation perfusion scintigraphy; V Q-scan; pulmonary embolism; automated method; box counting; correlation dimension; Hentschel-Procaccia dimension; Rényi dimension; generalized dimensions; fractal dimension estimation; dimension spectrum; multifractal measures; kernel density estimates; absolute continuity; singular distribution functions;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four papers. The first two papers, which comprise the main part of the thesis, deal with an unexpected connection between kernel density estimators and dimension spectra for multifractal measures. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Covariate Model Building in Nonlinear Mixed Effects Models

    Författare :Jakob Ribbing; E. Niclas Johnsson; Mats O. Karlsson; Janet Wade; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Pharmacokinetics Pharmacotherapy; Pharmacokinetics; Pharmacodynamics; Modeling; Covariate selection; Stepwise selection; Covariate analysis; Methodology; Model validation; Model evaluation; Type-2 diabetes; Beta-cell function; Meta analysis; Cross-validation; Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator; Pharmacometrics; ED optimization; Farmakokinetik Farmakoterapi;

    Sammanfattning : Population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) models can be fitted using nonlinear mixed effects modelling (NONMEM). This is an efficient way of learning about drugs and diseases from data collected in clinical trials. LÄS MER
