Liver Resection for Colorectal Cancer Metastases. Prognostic Factors and Interventions Affecting Outcome.

Background: With a yearly incidence of 56 per 100,000 inhabitants, colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies in the Western world, representing the third leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Within three years after the diagnosis of CRC, 29% of patients will have developed liver metastases. Liver resection is a possibly curative treatment, and several preoperative strate

Karl Ove Knausgård : intimt offentliggörande

Många av de dolda observationer som Erving Goffman och andra sociologer gjorde på 1950- och 1960-talen skulle i dag knappast ha kunnat genomföras av etiska skäl. Mot den bakgrunden kommer jag i föreliggande text att reflektera över hur skönlitteratur kan användas för att komma bakom de fasader som skyddar backstage från insyn. Skönlitteratur används då som ett slags ställföreträdande erfarenhet fö

Brown is the new white: consequences of white adipose tissue alterations in Huntington's disease

Huntington's disease (HD) is a devastating, inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expanded CAG repeat in the huntingtin gene. Peripheral symptoms, such as skeletal muscle wasting, progressive weight loss, altered body composition and endocrine disturbances exist alongside neurodegeneration. Both the mutant gene and protein are expressed in cells and tissues throughout the body.Weight l

Comparison of two SiGe 2-stage E-band Power Amplifier Architectures

This paper presents simulation and measurement results for two 2-stage E-band power amplifiers implemented in 0.18um SiGe technology with fT = 200 GHz. To increase the power gain by mitigating the effect of the base-collector capacitance, the first design uses a differential cascode topology with a 2.7 V supply voltage. The second design instead uses capacitive cross-coupling of a differential com

A 1.5 V 28 GHz beam steering SiGe PLL for an 81-86 GHz E-band transmitter

This paper presents measurement results for a low supply voltage 28 GHz beam steering PLL, designed in a SiGe bipolar process with fT = 200 GHz. The PLL, designed around a QVCO, is intended for a beam steering 81-86 GHz E-band transmitter. Linear phase control is implemented by variable current injection into a Gilbert type phase detector, with a measured nominal phase control sensitivity of 2.5˚/This letter presents measurement results for a low supply voltage 28 GHz beam steering PLL, designed in a SiGe bipolar process with fT=200 GHz.

Sweden: European Court of Human Rights Endorsement with Some Reservations

In difference to certain other European countries, the European Court for Human Rights (ECtHR) is rarely discussed in critical terms in Swedish media or in contemporary legal and political debate in Sweden. The article identifies examples of sporadic critical appraisals of the ECtHR in case-law and in legal debate. Interestingly, no political parties represented in the Riksdag have expressed scept

In this essay we investigate ways to re-configure ethnographic practices and articulate them as diffractive. The essay problematizes the ways in which the phi- losophical concept of reflexivity can be understood as limiting for the inherent compositional character of ethnographic practices. These practices are by necessity carried out in proximity. That makes a reflexive point of departure problem

LQG-Based Scheduling and Control Co-Design Using Harmonic Task Periods

Harmonic task scheduling has many attractive properties, including a utilization bound of 100% under rate-monotonic scheduling and reduced jitter. At the same time, it places a severe constraint on the task period assignment for any application. In this paper, we explore the use of harmonic task scheduling for applications with multiple feedback control tasks. We investigate the properties of harm

Transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2)

In 2006 a genetic signal within the gene encoding transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) was first reported to be associated with type 2 diabetes. Since then multiple genome-wide association studies have revealed this signal to be among the most strongest associations reported with this disease to date. Furthermore, multiple studies around the world have revealed the global relevance of this locus

Comparison and interactions between the long-term pursuit of energy independence and climate policies

Ensuring energy security and mitigating climate change are key energy policy priorities. The recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Working Group III report emphasized that climate policies can deliver energy security as a co-benefit, in large part through reducing energy imports. Here, using five state-of-the-art global energy-economy models and eight long-term scenarios, we show that w

Cholinesterase inhibitor therapy does not affect time spent in nursing homes in patients with Alzheimer’s disease.

Background: The time spent in nursing homes (NHs) by patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) might be influenced by many factors, e.g., sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, rate of disease progression, and concomitant disorders. Whether different aspects of cholinesterase inhibitor (ChEI) therapy (drug agent, dose, and duration) affect time spent in NHs has not been investigated. We studi
