1. 11. Counted - and then? : trends in child mortality within an Ethiopian demographic surveillance site

   Författare :Anders Emmelin; Stig Wall; Peter Byass; Tord Kjellström; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; child mortality; developing countries; demographic surveillance; equity; Public health science; Folkhälsovetenskap; Epidemiology; epidemiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Background Knowledge of the state of health of a population is necessary for planning for health services for that population. It is  a paradox that the health of populations is most commonly measured by mortality and cause of death patterns, but the absence of medical services available to a majority of the world population has made it unavoidable to equate “state of health” with “cause of death pattern”.

3. 12. Automatic speaker verification on site and by telephone: methods, applications and assessment

   Författare :Håkan Melin; Björn Granström; Mats Blomberg; Josef Bigün; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; speaker recognition; speaker verification; speech technology; biometrics; access control; speech corpus; variance estimation; Information and language technology; Informations- och språkteknologi;

   Sammanfattning : Speaker verification is the biometric task of authenticating a claimed identity by means of analyzing a spoken sample of the claimant's voice. The present thesis deals with various topics related to automatic speaker verification (ASV) in the context of its commercial applications, characterized by co-operative users, user-friendly interfaces, and requirements for small amounts of enrollment and test data.

4. 13. Oral and Oropharyngeal Cancer - Aspects on Epidemiology and Prognostic Markers

   Författare :Karin Annertz; Lund näs- och halssjukdomar Öron-; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Tongue cancer; SCC; oral cancer; oropharyngeal cancer; survival; incidence; HPV; human papillomavirus; alpha B-crystallin; sample collection methods; prognostic factor;

   Sammanfattning : Head and neck cancer is a heterogeneous group of tumours, although histopathologically, >95% are squamous cell carcinomas (SCC). Some tumours respond better to therapy than others. Not enough is known to predict the outcome and tailor individualised treatment. LÄS MER

5. 14. Overcoming the Barriers of Fine-Needle Aspiration

   Författare :Filipe Marques; Niclas Roxhed; Heikki J. Nieminen; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cysts; Cystic fluid; Pancreatic Cancer; Fine-needle Aspiration; Early diagnosis; Surgical instruments; Nitinol; Absorbable sutures; Loop brush; Cythopathology; Rapid on-site evaluation; Microfluidics; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Cysts, closed sac-like structures filled with fluid or air, can form anywhere in the body. In the majority of cases, cysts are benign (not cancerous). However, these structures can also be precursors of cancer, pointing to the location where cancer can originate. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Silicon nanowires (SiNW) are in the spotlight for a few years in the research community as a good candidate for biosensing applications. This is attributed to their small dimensions in nanometer scale that offers high sensitivity, label-free detection and at the same time utilizing small amount of sample. LÄS MER
