Antimicrobial resistance is an acute global health problem. Sub-Saharan Africa is particularly vulnerable, where antibiotic self-medication is one of the main causes of antimicrobial resistance. Previous research points to the role of pharmacies, where antibiotics are sometimes sold over the counter. Such behavior can be analyzed economically using game theory. This study aimed to analyze and moti

The Swedish National Archives have a national overview of the archive sector of Sweden’s public authorities and the archive ordinance gives the National Archives mandate to regulate and supervise the management of the archives, their compliance with the rules via auditing inspections, and to advise on archive matters. Due to the immense digitalization of public sector information in Sweden, archiv

The process stability of water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) double emulsions stabilized with food-grade OSA modified quinoa starch granules was investigated. The effect of oils with differing melting points, as well as the effect of in situ partial gelatinization of the granules, on stability of emulsions was also investigated. The physical stability and release of a tracer (carmine) from the internal

Extracting complementary features in parallel pathways is a widely used strategy for a robust representation of sensory signals. Weakly electric fish offer the rare opportunity to study complementary encoding of social signals in all of its electrosensory pathways. Electrosensory information is conveyed in three parallel pathways: two receptor types of the tuberous (active) system and one receptor

Enzymes with α-galactosidase activity are produced by many organisms, often in multiple forms. Here we compare the biochemical and hydrolytic properties of four major α-galactosidase forms (α-gal I-IV) that were purified from the culture filtrate of Aspergillus niger. α-Gal II, III and IV appear to be isoforms of the same enzyme, and N-terminal amino acid sequence data suggest that they are closel

Mycorrhizal symbioses -- the union of roots and soil fungi -- are universal in terrestrial ecosystems and may have been fundamental to land colonization by plants1,2. Boreal, temperate, and montane forests all depend upon ectomycorrhizae1. Identification of the primary factors that regulate symbiotic development and metabolic activity will therefore open the door to understanding the role of 2 ect

Det allmännas förhållande till såväl medborgare som företag är i stor utsträckning rättsligt reglerat, även vad gäller ekonomiska bidrag till någon av kategorierna. Ideella föreningar faller inte in under någon av dessa typer av rättssubjekt. Mot bakgrund av detta syftar uppsatsen till att utreda hur den rättsliga regleringen av kommunala bidrag till föreningslivet ser ut. Detta görs genom att delThe relations between the public authorities and its citizens and companies are subject to legislation, including financial subsidies from the public authorities to these two groups. Non-profit associations can not be included into either of these. The aim of this paper is to investigate the regulations concerning municipal financial subsidies to non-profit associations. This is done by looking at

Introduction ECG stress testing is an inexpensive and non-invasive detector of myocardial ischemia; addition of high-frequency QRS analysis (HFQRS) may improve accuracy. This study compared HFQRS during exercise in patients with and without ischemia as defined by multiple criteria. Material and methods High-resolution ECGs were recorded for 139 patients undergoing T99-sestamibi/T201-thallium stre

The vascular effects of endogenous substances can be easily studied in the skin. Early in this century, vasoregulation was shown to be dependent on innervation. Peptidergic transmitters have been shown to co-exist and co-transmit along with noradrenalin and acetylcholine, sometimes being responsible for nonadrenergic-noncholinergic responses. This review summarizes recent information on vasoregula

We consider Bayesian inference for stochastic differential equation mixed effectsmodels (SDEMEMs) exemplifying tumour response to treatment and regrowth in mice. We produce an extensive study on how an SDEMEM can be fitted by using both exact inference based on pseudo-marginal Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling and approximate inference via Bayesian synthetic likelihood (BSL). We inv

The natural gas/diesel dual-fuel engine is an interesting technique to reduce greenhouse gas emission. A limitation of this concept is the emission of un-combusted methane. In this study we analyzed the influence of PFI gas-injection timing on cylinder to cylinder gas-distribution, and the resulting methane emissions. This was done on a 6 cylinder HD engine test bench and in a GT-power simulation

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate lower extremity function in early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and assess its relation to other disease parameters. Methods: An inception cohort (recruited in 1995–2005) of patients with early RA was followed according to a structured protocol. Lower extremity function was investigated at inclusion and after 1, 2, and 5 years using the Index o

Objectives: Audiologists provide professional contact and support between appointments to clients with hearing impairment using telephone and e-mail, but more advanced and flexible technological platforms are also possible. The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical application of an Internet-based support system for audiologists and their first-time hearing aid clients. Design: An Internet-

Purpose: Breathlessness is a major cause of suffering in advanced cancer. We aimed to determine the symptom trajectory in people with advanced cancer and to identify those at increased risk of experiencing higher or increasing breathlessness over time in advanced cancer. Patients and methods: This was an analysis of the multinational, prospective, longitudinal European Palliative Care Cancer Sympt

Background Environmental barriers increase risk for mobility difficulties in old age. Mobility difficulty is preceded by a phase where people try to postpone a difficulty through mobility modification. We studied whether perceived environmental mobility barriers outdoors correlate with mobility modification and mobility difficulty, predict development of mobility difficulty over a two-year follow-

Objective: To gain insight into the pathophysiological and clinical consequences of short-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency (SCADD). Study design: A retrospective study of 15 fasting and 6 fat-loading tests in 15 Dutch patients with SCADD, divided into 3 genotype groups. Metabolic and endocrinologic measurements and the biochemical characteristics of SCADD, ethylmalonic acid (EMA), an

Cardiac arrest is the aprupt loss of cardiac function and circulation, follwed by the loss of consciousness and breathing. Most patients succumb before admission to hospital and survivors frequently suffer from anoxic-ischemic brain injury. The number of patients who survive with good neurological outcome, is low. In this thesis, we investigated the association of abnormal arterial partial pressur

Background: Currently, it is well known that the sound environment in intensive care units (ICU) is substandard. Therefore, there is a need of interventions investigating possible improvements. Unfortunately, there are many challenges to consider in the design and performance of clinical intervention studies including sound measurements and clinical outcomes. Objectives: (1) explore whether it is

Background: Retrospective studies indicate that the choice of anesthetic can affect long-term cancer survival. Propofol seems to have an advantage over sevoflurane. However, this is questioned for breast cancer. We gathered a large cohort of breast cancer surgery patients from seven Swedish hospitals and hypothesized that general anesthesia with propofol would be superior to sevoflurane anesthesia
