1. 1. Investigation of Injury Predictors for Rat Neuro Trauma

   University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

   Author : Rosetta Maglio; [2024]
   Keywords : Finite element method; Rat brain traumatic brain injury; Rat brain finite element model; Strain; Strain rate; Product of strain and strain rate; Rotational direction; Rotational duration; Injury prediction; Finita elementmetoden; Råtthjärnans finita elementmodell; Belastning; Belastningshastighet; Produkten av belastning och belastningshastighet; Rotationsriktning; Rotationstid; Skadeförutsägelse;

   Abstract : A traumatic brain injury is usually caused by a direct impact to the head and is a common cause of disability and death all around the world. The most effective method to predict brain injury today, is to use a finite element head model. READ MORE

3. 2. EVOKED PHASE COHERENCE AS A BIOMARKER FOR ADAPTIVE NEUROMODULATION IN RAT MODEL OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

   Author : Love Zackrisson; [2023]
   Keywords : Adaptive; Closed Loop; Neuromodulation; Parkinson’s Disease; Rat model; 6-OHDA; ITC; Phase Coherence; Bayesian Model; Classifier; Spinal Cord Stimulation; Deep Brain Stimulation.; Adaptiv; Closed Loop; Neuromodulation; Parkinson’s Sjukdom; Råttmodell; 6-OHDA; ITC; Faskoherens; Bayesiansk Modell; Klassificerare; Ryggradsstimulering; Djup Hjärnstimulering.;

   Abstract : Neuromodulation, such as spinal cord stimulation (SCS) and deep brain stimulation (DBS), has been shown to modulate pathophysiological brain activity and provide symptomatic therapy for several neurological disorders, including Parkinson’s Disease. The effectiveness of this therapy could likely be further improved by neuromodulation that is adaptive, delivering stimulation more selectively, by monitoring a biomarker in recorded brain signals, which indicates the presence of a pathological state.

4. 3. 3D printer in dosimetry and mammography – designing and testing an OSL dosemeter holder and a low contrast-detail phantom

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

   Author : Måns Boll; [2022]
   Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

   Abstract : Introduction: Today, 3D printing is a versatile tool used in a wide range of fields. With the advent of more cost-effective fused deposition modelling (FDM) 3D printing technologies it is time to investi- gate what such a 3D printer has to offer in radiation science applications.

5. 4. Automated rat trap for sewage systems : Design and development of a striking mechanism

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

   Author : Rami Parpala Dsouky; Albin Engver; [2021]
   Keywords : Product development; Rat trap; Pest control; Automatic;

   Abstract : This project is a master’s thesis in collaboration with Nomor, a company that offers pest control services. They had the need for the development of an automated mechanical rat trap for sewage systems. Brown rats populate the sewage systems in many cities, as it offers shelter and abundant food resources.

6. 5. The effect of deactivation or silencing of tumor stroma with angiogenesis inhibitor on malignancy of tumor metastases

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaceutisk biovetenskap

   Author : Nataly Tachijian; [2021]
   Keywords : neuroblastoma; SU11248; angiogenesis; tumor-associated macrophages; immunohistochemistry;

   Abstract : Background: Neuroblastoma (NB) is a pediatric tumor in infants and young children. The survival rate is only around 50 percent for high-risk NB despite advanced and intense multi-modal therapy. Current research aims to find new effective treatment additional to modern therapy to improve prognosis of high-risk NB in children. READ MORE
