  1. 11. Methodology for Assessing Learning from Incidents - a Process Industry Perspective

    Författare :Anders Jacobsson; Avdelningen för Brandteknik; []
    Nyckelord :Accidents; Incidents; Learning from incidents; Learning cycle; Lesson learned; Process industry;

    Sammanfattning : Learning from incidents (from minor disturbances to major accidents) is considered one of the most important ways in the process industry to learn from experiences for improving safety performance. Most companies have a formal incident learning system and considerable resources are used for reporting incidents and for utilising these experiences to prevent future incidents. LÄS MER

  2. 12. An impedance approach to passive-active vibration control

    Författare :Jonas Svensson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hybrid passive-active vibration control; Active control; Euler- Bernoulli theory.; Impedance matching;

    Sammanfattning : The complementary advantages of active and passive vibration control have motivated research concerning hybrid configurations. Previous studies have mainly focused on active constrained layers (ACL). However, investigations pointing towards suboptimal performance of ACL have made it interesting to investigate other solutions. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Molecular Epidemiology of Cardiovascular Disease

    Författare :Markus Stenemo; Johan Ärnlöv; Rikard Landberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biomarkers; ischemic stroke; heart failure; omics; proteomics; metabolomics; epidemiology; risk marker; Epidemiologi; Epidemiology;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, with increasing prevalence worldwide.Identification of risk markers may enable improved prevention by targeting high-risk individuals, earlier disease diagnosis and treatment, as well as stratification of disease subtypes with different treatment options, thereby minimizing side effects while increasing success rates.

  4. 14. Novel risk markers in the chronic kidney disease patient : new insights into the wasting-inflammation axis

    Författare :Juan Jesús Carrero; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have a risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality that is 20 ]30 fold higher than that of a similar person without CKD. While traditional (i.e Framingham) risk factors certainly contribute, they cannot by themselves explain this exacerbated mortality burden. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Prostate Diseases and the Metabolic Syndrome

    Författare :Mohammad-Ali Haghsheno; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Prostate Cancer; Metabolic Syndrome; Vitamin D; Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus; Osteocalcin;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT The overall aim of this thesis was to explore the association between the components of the metabolic syndrome (MetS), including vitamin D, and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). The focus was on the relationship between diseases of the prostate, mainly benign prostatic enlargement (BPE) and prostate cancer (PC). LÄS MER
