1. Predicting True Sepsis and Culture-positive Sepsis in Intensive Care Unit with Machine Learning Techniques
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistikSammanfattning : Sepsis, a serious medical condition often leading to patients requiring intensive care, has prompted numerous scientists to employ mathematical techniques to aid in its diagnosis. This thesis uses logistic regression and a machine learning technique, XGBoost, to predict true sepsis (as opposed to sepsis mimics) and culture-positive sepsis (among true sepsis) in critical care using blood test results, physiological measurements and other patient characteristics.

2. ”Ett beteende som mitt måste straffas och skulden skulle betalas i blod” : En kvalitativ studie om socialförvaltningens arbete med hedersrelaterat våld: begränsningar, utmaningar och brister
Kandidat-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa och samhälle (HS)Sammanfattning : This study aims to highlight the challenges and shortcomings that affect social work related to honor-based issues, which often result in individuals at risk of honor-based violence choosing to remain in oppressive situations, regardless of the consequences. We have conducted semi-structured interviews with social workers who address these problems in various professional roles, including social secretaries, counselors, foster homes, and organizations that work with preventive measures.

3. Artbestämning med matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionisation time-of-flight masspektrometri direkt från positiva blododlingar med Sepsityper® samt in- house-protokoll
Kandidat-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för hälsovetenskaperSammanfattning : Introduktion: Sepsis är utan behandling ett livshotande tillstånd, en korrekt behandling behöver en snabb och tillförlitlig artidentifiering. Olika prepareringsmetoder av positiva blododlingar inför direkt identifiering med MALDI-TOF finns. MBT Sepsityper® IVD Kit är en CE-märkt metod. LÄS MER
4. Low-concentration Bacteria Separation from Whole Blood through a Slanted Filter in a Centrifuge Tube
Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Sammanfattning : Sepsis characterized by severe bloodstream bacterial infection that results in high mortality rates and medical expenses has become a global healthcare challenge. The current clinical sepsis diagnosis is based on blood culture and requires a long waiting time, delaying effective treatments. LÄS MER
5. Inducing an immunosuppressed phenotype inprimary monocytes through exposure to viralproteins.
Kandidat-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för medicinska vetenskaperSammanfattning : Background. Sepsis has been defined as a hyperactive dysregulated inflammatory response that can lead tohigh fevers, shock and multiple organ failure. However, newer findings indicate that LPS canreprogram monocytes to adopt a suppressed immune response-phenotype leading to increasedsusceptibility and mortality in a secondary infection. LÄS MER
