IntroductionSlow sand filtration is an established method for drinking water treatment, however, the knowledge about their microbial ecology remains limited. Maintenance of slow sand filters (SSF) includes washing to remove biofilm growth in the sand and restore flow through the filter. Understanding how this impacts produced water is important as the SSF may influence the bacterial flora in the f

OBJECTIVE - Our aim was to characterize familial risks for type 2 diabetes by the type and number of affected family members, including half-siblings, adoptees, and spouses, to quantify risks and estimate the contribution of environmental effect. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS - Families were identified from the Multigeneration Register, and type 2 diabetic patients were obtained from the Hospital Di

Syftet med studien var att undersöka på vilket sätt äldre patienter med typ 2 diabetes borde informeras för att kunna tillgodogöra sig kunskap om diabetes och egenvård. Avsikten med informationen var att minska riskerna för senkomplikationer. Metoden var litteraturstudie och sökningen skedde i databasen Medline. Avgränsningar gjordes så att tio artiklar från år 1990 till 1998 skrivna på engelska s

We consider multistep discretizations, stabilized by β-blocking, for Euler-Lagrange DAEs of index 2. Thus we may use “nonstiff” multistep methods with an appropriate stabilizing difference correction applied to the Lagrangian multiplier term. We show that order p =k + 1 can be achieved for the differential variables with order p =k for the Lagrangian multiplier fork-step difference corrected BDF m

During the 2009-2013 data taking period (Run I) LUCID was successfully providing information about the luminosity delivered to ATLAS by the LHC. Starting from 2015 (Run II) the LHC machine is expected to provide about twice larger peak instantaneous luminosity and the bunch spacing in the machine is decreased by factor of two (from 50 ns to 25 ns). The original LU-CID design could not cope with th

Perennial plants come with several benefits: less erosion, reduced intensity of farming operations, and increased carbon inputs into the soil. In a long term field experiment in Alnarp, Sweden, the perennial wheatgrass Kernza® is compared with an annual crop rotation (including wheat, sugar beet, barley and rapeseed), comparing the CO2 flux between the soil and the air together with other aspectshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E94FUoaPqYk

Diabetes typ 2 är ett växande problem som drar sig allt längre ned i åldrarna. Sjukdomen kan medföra svåra kroniska komplikationer, höga kostnader och mycket lidande. Syftet med studien var att undersöka kostens betydelse för diabetes typ 2 patienter beträffande HbA1c värde, kolesterolvärde, lipidvärde, och vikt. Metoden var en litteraturstudie där åtta vetenskapliga artiklar studerats. De granska

Det har visat sig att patientundervisning har god effekt på egenvården vid diabetes typ 2. Syftet med studien var att belysa betydelsefulla faktorer i patientundervisningen som har en inverkan på egenvården vid diabetes typ 2. Metoden var en litteraturstudie där granskning och analys av tio vetenskapliga artiklar, såväl kvalitativa som kvantitativa genomfördes. Resultatet visade att kunskap var en

The spontaneous open-field behavioural effects of 10 days of chronic treatment with two clinical doses (10 and 20 mg/kg daily) and one high/toxic dose (100 mg/kg daily) of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor citalopram (delivered subcutaneously by implanted osmotic pumps) were examined in rats. Central and peripheral arena locomotor and rearing activities were recorded simultaneously, and t
