Abstract in Undetermined Samtalsanalytisk studie som ger metodisk kunskap om jourläkares medicinska frågeprocedurer i samtal med diabetiker efter insulinkoma samt hur ambulanssjuksköterskor och jourläkare sambedömer och kommer fram till ett medicinskt beslut i relation till ambulansriktlinjer.

The Research Institute for Fragrance Materials, Inc. (RIFM) has been engaged in the generation and evaluation of safety data for fragrance materials since its inception over 45 years ago. Over time, RIFM's approach to gathering data, estimating exposure and assessing safety has evolved as the tools for risk assessment evolved. This publication is designed to update the RIFM safety assessment proce

We present a novel method for estimating the depth of a fluorescent lesion in tissue based on measurements of the fluorescence signal in different wavelength bands. The measured fluorescence spectrum following irradiation by excitation light at the surface is a function of several parameters, because the fluorescence light has to pass through tissue with characteristic scattering and absorption pr

Background: Less than 500 participants have been included in randomized trials comparing hypothermia with regular care for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients, and many of these trials were small and at a high risk of bias. Consequently, the accrued data on this potentially beneficial intervention resembles that of a drug following small phase II trials. A large confirmatory trial is therefore

PURPOSE: To assess whether higher plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] is associated with improved outcomes in colon cancer and whether circulating inflammatory cytokines mediate such association.EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Plasma samples were collected from 1,437 patients with stage III colon cancer enrolled in a phase III randomized clinical trial (CALGB/SWOG 80702) from 2010 to 2015, who were followed

The Euro50 is a European Extremely Large Telescope. Its enclosure will be among the largest buildings of the world. Determining the maximum wind load is crucial for the survival of the structure, and local forces have an impact on the detailed design such as cladding. Pressure variations on the primary mirror and the wind load on the telescope are important for the development of active optics and

In this project a technique to optically measure the temperature is evaluated. The measurement is to be performed through optical fibres during photodynamic laser treatments or laser thermo therapy of malignant tumours. For this technique Cr³⁺-doped crystals were used. The lifetime of the ions' fluorescence were measured, since the fluorescence is strongly temperature dependent. A piece

The European Congenital Heart Surgeons Association (ECHSA) Congenital Database (CD) is the second largest clinical pediatric and congenital cardiac surgical database in the world and the largest in Europe, where various smaller national or regional databases exist. Despite the dramatic increase in interventional cardiology procedures over recent years, only scattered national or regional databases

Development of the Drosophila visceral muscle depends on Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (Alk) receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling, which specifies founder cells (FCs) in the circular visceral mesoderm (VM). Although Alk activation by its ligand Jelly Belly (Jeb) is well characterized, few target molecules have been identified. Here, we used targeted DamID (TaDa) to identify Alk targets in embryos

BACKGROUND: The Eight-Twenty-One (ETO) nuclear co-repressor gene belongs to the ETO homologue family also containing Myeloid Translocation Gene on chromosome 16 (MTG16) and myeloid translocation Gene-Related protein 1 (MTGR1). By chromosomal translocations ETO and MTG16 become parts of fusion proteins characteristic of morphological variants of acute myeloid leukemia. Normal functions of ETO homol

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has created a global health- and economic crisis. Detection of antibodies to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) which causes COVID-19 by serological methods is important to diagnose a current or resolved infection. In this study, we applied a rapid COVID-19 IgM/IgG antibody test and performed serology assessment of antibody

The intention with this chapter is to briefly review the capabilities made possible in the field of biomedical diagnostics and treatment by employing upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs), as well as the importance of appropriate light sources for such applications. The field of UCNPs in biomedicine has grown rapidly the last decade, since they first were made sufficiently small and bright to be of r

Measurements of fetal aortic blood flow velocity and fetal growth were performed in 178 pregnancies. In 87 cases, the estimated fetal weight was > 2 SD below the gestational age-related mean of the population. Three fetuses died in utero. In 148 children (84%) an assessment of overall intellectual ability was performed at 6.5 years of age. Verbal and global IQ was lower in the group with an abnorm

Measurements of fetal aortic blood flow velocity and fetal growth were performed in 178 pregnancies. In 87 cases, the estimated fetal weight was > or = 2 SD below the gestational age-related mean of the population. Three fetuses died in utero. In 149 children (85%), a neurological examination was performed at 7 years of age with special emphasis on minor neurological dysfunction. The frequency of

The central theme of this thesis is anthropogenic climate change; governments' inability to create an effective, inclusive response mechanism that manages to mitigate anthropogenic emissions; and advocates efforts to coerce States to act by invoking State responsibility in adjudicatory dispute settlement processes. States' failure to act in accordance with scientific risk assessments and

Background T-cell activation and clonal expansion are essential to effective immunotherapy responses in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The distribution of T-cell clones may offer insights into immunogenic mechanisms and imply potential prognostic and predictive information. Methods We analyzed α/β T-cell receptor (TCR) clonality using RNA-sequencing of bulk frozen tumor tissue from 182 patien

Kan en enskild lag underlätta planläggningsarbetet ute i kommunerna? Hur arbetar din kommun för att bygga och bevara befintliga hyresrätter? I dagsläget uppfinner varje kommun hjulet själva, men det kan snart vara över. Ett nytt lagförslag är på ingång! Lagstiftaren vill att PBL och byggnadsbranschen blir mer förutsägbar, effektiv och smidig. Bostadskrisen har länge varit på tapeten och röster hörThe Swedish housing market faces a number of concerns. There are too few rental units with cheap rent available and the capital input to buy your own freehold title or tenant-ownership is skyrocketing. The threshold for entering the housing market is getting higher and groups such as young adults, new arrivals, disabled people, and the elderly are the ones who are the most exposed. Developers get

Background and Objectives: This project explored the needs of art galleries and collectors for Digital Asset Management Systems (DAMS), in order to fill an existing knowledge gap and help companies to analyse these needs. Bespoken difficulties in the field significantly challenge the development of DAMS and have thus also hampered the evolvement of high-quality systems for the art market. There se
