Jämförelse av två enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays för mätning av diabetesspecifika autoantikroppar i en pediatrisk population / Comparision of two enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays for measuring diabetes-specific autoantibodies in a pediatric populationJovic, Silvija January 2016 (has links)
Typ 1 diabetes (T1D) är en autoimmunsjukdom som ökar för varje år och är den vanligaste typen avdiabetes bland barn och unga (98 %). Vid T1D bildar kroppen autoantikroppar mot beta celler som finns i bukspottskörteln. Betacellerna förstörs i en immunologisk process och då kan inte cellerna producera hormonet insulin. Följderna blir att individen inte kan tillgodogöra glukos i blodet. De autoantikroppar som har identifierats är mot de Langerhanska ö-cellerna är följande: ö-cellantikroppar (Islet Cell Antibodies, ICA), insulinantikroppar (Insulin Auto Antibody, IAA), glutaminsyradekarboxylas-antikroppar (glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies, GADA), tyrosinfosfatas-liknande proteinet IA-2 antikroppar (tyrosine phosphatase-related islet antigen 2 antibodies, IA-2A) samt zinktransportör 8 antikroppar (zinc transporter 8 autoantibody, ZnT8A). I den här studien jämfördes två kommersiella ELISA kit för detektion av autoantikroppar i serum. RSR-2screen islet cell autoantibody (ELISA-kit, RSR, Cardiff, UK) identifierar IA-2 och GAD antikroppar och RSR-3screen islet cell autoantibody identifierar (ELISA-kit, RSR,) IA-2, GAD och ZnT8 antikroppar. I studien deltog en kontrollgrupp (n=100) och en grupp av nyligen diagnostiserade T1D-patienter (n=50). Resultaten för studien behandlades statistiskt för att bestämma ett positivt tröskelvärde för båda kiten (RSR-2screen: 2,7 Units/mL och RSR-3screen:15 Units/mL). Vid specificiteten 97,5% gav RSR-2screen sensitivitet 92 % och RSR-3screen sensitiviteten 94 %. Eftersom RSR-3screen gav högre sensitivitet drogs slutsatsen att den rekommenderas i första hand för screening i en frisk population samt bland individer som löper ökad risk att utveckla T1D.

La musique, l’auditeur et la radio des années trente : histoire et répertoire de la Radio Suisse romandeWyss, Antonin 12 1900 (has links)
La version intégrale de ce mémoire est disponible uniquement pour consultation individuelle à la Bibliothèque de musique de l’Université de Montréal (www.bib.umontreal.ca/MU). / Ce mémoire propose une étude de la programmation musicale de la Radio Suisse romande (RSR) des années trente. Le premier chapitre du travail rappelle les prémices de la radio dans le monde et présente les différentes étapes qui ont mené à la création d’un service public de radiodiffusion en Suisse, ainsi que ses premières années de développement.
Le deuxième chapitre examine la construction des grilles de programmes à l’antenne et se penche sur les rôles et implications des différents acteurs qui participent au développement des émissions musicales de l’époque : programmateurs, musiciens et auditeurs.
Le troisième chapitre est une étude statistique réalisée à partir d’un échantillon de programmes musicaux diffusés entre 1930 et 1939. En procédant à une catégorisation des émissions musicales recensées et à l’identification des différents auteurs/compositeurs présents dans les émissions, nous proposons une typologie des programmes et des compositeurs.
Le travail est illustré par plusieurs archives sonores. / This thesis proposes a study of the musical programming of Radio Suisse Romande (RSR) in the 1930s. The first chapter of the work recalls the beginnings of radio in the world and shows the different steps that led to the creation of a public service broadcasting in Switzerland and its early years of development.
The second chapter examines the construction of program schedules on the air and looks at the roles and implications of the different actors involved in the development of music programs at the time: programmers, musicians and listeners.
The third chapter is a statistical study based on a sample of music programs broadcast between 1930 and 1939. In making a classification of recorded music programs and the identification of different authors/composers present in broadcasts, we propose a typology of programs and composers.
The study is illustrated by several sound archives.

Commitment, Forgiveness, and Relationship Self-Regulation: An Actor-Partner Interdependence ModelSmith, Heather Michele 01 July 2014 (has links) (PDF)
Relationship self-regulation (RSR) refers to the “work”, or effort and strategies, that partners exert over time to maintain the health of their romantic relationships. Most research focuses on self-reports of RSR, however, several studies suggest that partner perceptions are more influential in relationship appraisal. In addition, most RSR research has focused not on partners' attitudes and virtues like commitment, but instead on personality traits, emotional health, and communication skills. In this study, we examine the relationship between partners' levels of commitment and forgiveness within their relationships, and how they perceive their partner's use of RSR behaviors. Using paired data from 679 cohabiting and married couples who took the RELATE questionnaire, we found that males' and females' self-reports of commitment and forgiveness were both positively associated with higher perceptions of partner RSR. Likewise, we found that, for females, higher self-reports of commitment and forgiveness were positively correlated with higher male perceptions of her RSR, and male forgiveness was positively correlated with female perceptions of his RSR. The variables of commitment and forgiveness explained an average of 44% of the variance in perceptions of partner RSR for both genders. Implications for future research and clinicians are discussed.
