Collaboration by two grounded theory researchers, who each had developed a learning continuum instrument, led to the emergence of a new tool for assessment of learning powered mobility use. We undertook a rigorous process of comparative reanalysis that included merging, modifying, and expanding our previous research findings. A new instrument together with its facilitating strategies emerged in th

Popular Abstract in Swedish Clostridium difficile-associerad diarré - aspekter på sjukhusepidemiologi och behandling Sjukhusutbrott av diarré med Clostridium difficile upplev's i Sverige och internationellt som ett betydande problem. C. difficile är en bakterie som normalt kan förekomma i tarmen. Under antibiotikabehandling förstör's den mikrobiologiska balansen i tarmen och C. difficile bakterieClostridium difficile is a spore-forming bacterium that causes antibiotic-associated diarrhoea and is responsible for hospital outbreaks of diarrhoea. In the first study, 173 consecutive isolates of C. difficile collected from 147 patients at Malmö University Hospital during 1995 were typed by AP-PCR to determine whether cross-transmission could explain the increased incidence of Clostridium diffi

Perimetric threshold examination is the most important method for diagnosing and monitoring patients with glaucoma. Such examination, however, is time-consuming and often difficult for the elderly patients in whom glaucoma is prevalent. Shorter test strategies have been proposed, but unfortunately also with lower test quality. By using new computer-intense techniques for acquisition and processing

This article deals with the early development of the Jesus prayer in Early Christian monasticism of the 4th to the 7th century. It proceeds in two steps. First, a quite uniform matrix of practices and aims related to three early monastic authors (John Cassian, Diadochus of Photike, and John Climacus) is discerned. It is evident that the practice is not clearly defined in this period. It is also ap

Popular Abstract in Swedish Cancer i tjocktarm och ändtarm (colorektal cancer) är en av de vanligaste cancerformerna i västvärlden. Årligen insjuknar drygt 5 000 människor i Sverige i denna sjukdom, och ungefär hälften av dessa dör till följd av sin cancer. De som avlider i colorektal cancer har i de allra flesta fall spridning av tumören till andra organ (metastasering). Levern är den vanligaste Liver is the most common site of dissemination in colorectal cancer, and untreated liver metastases are associated with a poor prognosis. The main reason for trying to detect liver metastases early is that liver resection offers a chance for cure in selected patients. The sensitivity of alkaline phosphatases (ALP), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), computed tomography (CT), CT with arterial contrast

Introduction Methods Results Discussion Conclusion Consistent evidence underlines the utility of human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA testing in the management of women with equivocal cervical cytological abnormalities, but not in case of low-grade lesions. We performed a meta-analysis including studies where the high-risk probe of the Hybrid Capture-II is used to triage these two cytological categories

Gaucher disease (GD) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the glucosidase, beta, acid (GBA) gene that encodes the lysosomal enzyme glucosylceramidase (GCase). GCase deficiency leads to characteristic visceral pathology and, in some patients, lethal neurological manifestations. Here, we report the generation of mouse models with the severe neuronopathic form o

Although Parkinson's disease is a movement disorder, in many patients cognitive dysfunction is an important clinical sign. It is not yet clear whether this is attributable solely to a decrease in dopamine levels, or whether other neurotransmitter systems might be involved as well. In the present study, the importance of the mesocorticolimbic dopamine pathway and a possible convergence with forebra

This chapter investigates how the challenging questions and tensions caused by migrants and their universalist claims for inclusion, have been approached and resolved in liberal democracies. By regarding the development of populism as a real and dangerous political phenomenon that has significant traction, the chapter asks whether populism adds something new to this approach and resolution. More s

The ability of many pathogenic microorganisms to cause infection is dependent on their ability to evade attack by the complement system of the host. One mechanism by which microorganisms may avoid complement attack is to bind complement inhibitory molecules present in the host. This thesis describes studies of the complement inhibitor C4BP and of inter-actions between C4BP and the human pathogen

Aims: To determine the ophthalmological outcome at 6.5 years of age in children treated for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), and registered in the national Swedish National Register for ROP register. Methods: Data on ROP, treatment and ophthalmological outcome were retrieved from the register. Visual acuity (VA), refractive errors and strabismus, together with visual impairment (VI) and any signi

Purpose: We assessed long-term outcomes in acutely admitted adult patients with delirium treated in intensive care unit (ICU) with haloperidol versus placebo. Methods: We conducted pre-planned analyses of 1-year outcomes in the Agents Intervening against Delirium in the ICU (AID-ICU) trial, including mortality and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) assessed by Euroqol (EQ) 5-dimension 5-level

BACKGROUND: In patients with sinus rhythm and normal atrioventricular conduction, pacing only the left ventricle with appropriate atrioventricular delays can result in superior left ventricular and right ventricular function compared with standard biventricular (BiV) pacing.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate a novel adaptive cardiac resynchronization therapy ((aCRT) algorithm for CRT pacing that provides auto

With worldwide population aging, increasing numbers of people need hospital care. Evidence suggests comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) is superior to usual care. To summarize the evidence for the effects of CGA in frail and moderately frail patients compared with usual care in acute care settings. CINAHL, PsycInfo, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and PubMed were searched in October 2011, January 2

Carcinogen-DNA adducts result from the covalent interaction of electrophilic chemical carcinogens with nucleophilic sites in DNA. Some highly reactive genotoxic carcinogens are capable of directly binding to DNA but most carcinogens require metabolic activation. DNA adducts, if not repaired, can lead to mutations, and mutations in critical genes are a characteristic feature of tumors. Thus DNA add

PURPOSE: Perceived Threat of the Risk of Graft Rejection (PTRGR) is prominent in organ transplant recipients' lives. When asked about what they fear most, the commonest response is graft rejection. A reasonable assumption is that this perceived threat is also relevant for heart recipients and involves various psychological reactions, such as efforts to cope with the perceived threat. There are no

Denna avhandling undersöker vardagen på två dagliga verksamheter inom psykiatrin i Köpenhamns kommun. Mer specifikt fokuserar avhandlingen patienternas kommunikation och beteenden samt den stigmatisering de upplever från omvärlden. Det empiriska materialet bygger på tre års deltagande observationer. De stadsdelar som de två verksamheterna låg i befann sig i var sin ände av kommunens socioekonomiskThis dissertation looks into everyday life at two day-care centres of community psychiatry in the municipality of Copenhagen. More specifically, it is about the patients' communication and behaviour, and about the stigmatization fromthe outer world they experience. The empirical material is based on three years of participant observation. The two daycare centres and their districts were situated i

Rationale: Atrial fibrillation causes one-fifth of ischemic strokes, with a high risk of early recurrence. Although long-term anticoagulation is highly effective for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation, initiation after stroke is usually delayed by concerns over intracranial hemorrhage risk. Direct oral anticoagulants offer a significantly lower risk of intracranial hemorrhage than other anti
