In the end of the 1990ths came alarming reports that the vaccine against measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) could cause autism. The discovery about the connection was told in mass media all over the world and in Europe the vaccination frequency decreased with several percent. In some areas less than 90% of the children were vaccinated, a limit that calls “herd immunity”. In interviews with parents,

Microchromatographic separations of polar aromatic compounds (pyridine, 4-pyridylmethanol, 4-methoxyphenol, 2-naphthol, catechol, hydroquinone, resorcinol, 2,7-dihydroxynaphthalene) using continuous beds are described. The columns were prepared by a simple one-step in situ polymerization procedure: a solution of acrylic monomers, including the cross-linking agent piperazine diacrylamide, was polym

In the automotive industry, the piezo-based in-cylinder pressure sensor is getting commercialized and used in production vehicles. For example, the pressure sensor offers the opportunity to design algorithms for estimation of engine emissions, such as soot and NO, during a combustion cycle. In this paper a zero-dimensional NO model for a diesel engine is implemented that will be used in real time.

Slow-release strong opioids (SRSO) are indicated in patients with severe chronic pain. Side effects, lack of efficacy and risk of dependency limit their use in clinical practice. The aim of this study was to explore prescription patterns of SRSO in Swedish real-world data on patients with a diagnosis related to chronic pain (DRCP). Patient-level data were extracted from the national prescriptions

Background: Theory of warehouse operation are a well explored area but it seems that warehouse manager have a hard time to understand what solutions to adapt to improve their warehouse. Theory of Constraints(ToC) are a young philosophy regarding improvements work that have been employed to many different business areas. Warehouse manager would need a method to evaluate what solutions to implement

This thesis aims to investigate if it's possible to make out cultural differences within the medieval music tradition. Four different places are used in order to study finds of musical instruments: Eketorp Castle, Lund, Alvastra Monastery and Örja. The chosen places represent four different contexts: castle, city, monastery and rural area. Both archaeological finds and historical sources are u

Background: In the everyday surgical life, staff may experience that patients with Alcohol Use Disorders (AUDs) seem reluctant to participate in alcohol intervention programs. The objective was therefore to assess acceptance of screening and intervention as well as adherence to the intervention program among emergency department (ED) and surgical patients with AUDs. Methods: A systematic literatur

A generally accepted way of building passive houses has been to have small windows facing north and large windows to the south. This is to minimize losses on the north side while gaining as much solar heat as possible on the south. ln spring 2001, 20 terraced houses were built outside Gothenburg partly in this way. The indoor temperature is kept at a comfortable level by passive methods, using sol

In higher plants, thylakoid membrane protein complexes show lateral heterogeneity in their distribution: photosystem (PS) II complexes are mostly located in grana stacks, whereas PSI and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase are mostly found in the stroma-exposed thylakoids. However, recent research has revealed strong dynamics in distribution of photosystems and their light harvesting antenna alo

Modelers seeking to help inform decisions about insurance (public or private) coverage of the cost of pharmaceuticals or other health care interventions face various methodological challenges. In this review, which is not meant to be comprehensive, we cover those that in our experience are most vexing. The biggest challenge is getting decision makers to trust the model. This is a major problem bec

Leaders make decisions every day of their lives, but how they do it changes dramatically over the course of their careers. At lower levels, the job is to get widgets out the door; action is at a premium. At higher levels, the job involves decisions about which widgets to offer and how to develop them. To climb the corporate ladder and be effective in new roles, managers need to change the way they

Objective. To explore how a group of Swedish general practitioners (GPs) manage patients with a sore throat in relation to current guidelines as expressed in interviews. Design. Qualitative content analysis was used to analyse semi-structured interviews. Setting. Swedish primary care. Subjects. A strategic sample of 25 GPs. Main outcome measures. Perceived management of sore throat patients. Resul

Popular Abstract in Swedish Olika aspekter angående transportmekanismen för aminosyran L-dopa in i så kallade Langerhans celler (LC) i människans överhud och överhudens energimetabolism är undersökta och karaktäriserade. LC har flera olika funktioner i huden, och är en av de mest perifera delarna i vårt immunsystem mot omvärlden. Cellerna vandrar ut i huden från blodkärlssystemet. Cellerna kan äveBased on the discovery of a new amino acid transport system in Langerhans cells (LC), various aspects concerning the L-dopa uptake mechanism into human epidermal LC and the energy metabolism of epidermis have been examined and subsequently characterised. The system lacks any characteristics of other described amino acid transport systems in other cell types. The Falck/Hillarp histofluorescence met

During my time as Director of Studies at the Municipal Music School of Lund, Sweden, I have had several discussions with teachers, students, parents, municipality civil servants, and politicians. I have concluded that in general, culture schools and music schools are looked upon as institutions where parents safely can send their children convinced about that they get a qualified education regardi

Popular Abstract in Swedish Forskning kring biomarkörer har revolutionerat cancersjukvården. Några av de mest kända exemplen är PSA-testet som kan användas för att identifiera patienter med ökad risk för prostata cancer eller de nya antikroppsbehandlingarna, t.ex mot HER2 (trastuzumab/Hercepin) eller CD20 (rituximab/Rituxan), som gör att man nu ofta kan förlänga eller bota patienter som tidigare hThe goal of biomarker discovery is to identify disease defining molecules, which could be used to improve early detection and/or to predict survival and response to treatment. This thesis is about the transcription factor SOX11, a protein discovered in the context of mantle cell lymphoma in 2008, which shows great potential to be used as a clinical relevant biomarker. The aim of this thesis is to

The thesis deals with determination of the post peak behaviour of wood in pure tension and pure shear. Furhermore, the "Fictitious Crack Model" (FCM), which is a nonlinear fracture mechanics model ; originally developed for description of crack propagation in concrete, is employed to demonstrate the advantages of non linear fracture mechanics. A testing arrangement is presented with which the comp

This study focused on older patients participating in a team meeting (TM) in a hospital ward in Sweden. A process had taken place on the ward, in which the traditional round had developed into a TM and understanding what participating in a TM means for the older patient is necessary for the development of care that facilitates older patient's participation. The aim of this study was to describe th
