Introduction: We evaluated the concordance of the Neurological pupil Index (NPi) with other predictors of outcome after cardiac arrest (CA). Methods: Post hoc analysis of a prospective, international, multicenter study including adult CA patients. Predictors of unfavorable outcome (UO, Cerebral Performance Category of 3–5 at 3 months) included: a) worst NPi ≤ 2; b) presence of discontinuous enceph
The multi-objective optimal power management of multi-microgrid systems is solved in this paper. Minimizing the total cost and emission of the system are considered as the objective functions. The multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm is applied on a multi-microgrid system that consists of four microgrids each includes diesel generators, wind turbines, photovoltaic units, battery,
Background: Sedation is routinely administered to critically ill patients to alleviate anxiety, discomfort, and patient-ventilator asynchrony. However, it must be balanced against risks such as delirium and prolonged intensive care stays. This study aimed to investigate the effects of different levels of sedation in critically ill adults. Methods: Systematic review with meta-analysis and trial seq
ObjectivesBeing met with empathy increases information sharing, treatment coherence, and helps patients to recover faster. However, we do not know how the content of the conversation about disease progression, new treatments, or other issues concerning serious illness affects patients' perceptions of the physician's empathy, and thus, the quality of the conversation. This study aimed to test the h
Globally we are facing a complex web of grand challenges that are impacting the lived environment, our development pathways, and wider quality of life. Urban environments serve as a key context around which these grand challenges are not only experienced while also providing multiple opportunities to reduce environmental impacts and resource consumption; improve health outcomes; eradicate poverty;
As our society becomes more and more dependent on IT systems, failures of these systems can harm more and more people and organizations both public and private. Diligently performing risk and hazard analysis helps to minimize the societal harms of IT system failures. In this paper we present experiences gained by applying the System Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) method for hazard analysis on a
This chapter complements the analysis in Chapter 2 by a policy-oriented inquiry of how different degrees of fragmentation of governance architectures are likely to affect the environmental effectiveness of policies. Our study relates here to an area of widespread contestation in academic and policy writing. It is often maintained, as we describe further below, that a more integrated climate govern
The Nuremberg Charter introduced corporate criminal liability into international law and the great American Chief Prosecutor Justice Robert Jackson gave a promise that any legal person who commits crimes prescribed by international law shall be prosecuted and punished according to international criminal law. However, during this period of time, a corporation was never prosecuted per se as the sitt
The healthfulness of a dietary pattern is not merely measured in its content of nutrients, but also of the diversity of the ingredients present. The methods of analyzing dietary diversity, such as Minimum Dietary Diversity for Women (MDD-W) index and Dietary Species Richness (DSR), have been developed in the last decades, used to capture different forms of dietary diversity. Increased dietary dive
Syftet med vår studie har varit att fördjupa oss i hur musikterapi används av verksamma musikterapeuter och inom olika områden, för att undersöka vilka arbetsmetoder inom området som kan vara användbara för musiklärare främst inom anpassad grundskola. Våra forskningsfrågor har varit att undersöka vilka positiva effekter som musikterapeutiska har, hur verksamma musikterapeuter ser på användandet avThe purpose of this study has been to examine what methods within the subject that can be useful for music teachers working mainly in compulsory school for pupils with intellectual disabilities, as well as to deepen our knowledge of how music therapy is used by music therapists at work in different areas. Our question at issue has been to examine what positive effects music therapy has, what view
Background: Induced hypothermia post-cardiac arrest is neuroprotective in animal experiments, but few high-quality studies have been performed in larger animals with human-like brains. The neuroprotective effect of postischemic hypothermia has recently been questioned in human trials. Our aim is to investigate whether hypothermia post-cardiac arrest confers a benefit compared to normothermia in la
Grief is a normal reaction after the death of a loved one. Death rituals are an integral part of the mourning processes. Not being able to carry out death rituals can affect relatives' quality of life. The aim was to evaluate death rituals during COVID-19 and their association with relatives' quality of life. In a Swedish nation-wide study relatives to persons who died during the COVID-19-pandemic
Objectives: To identify characteristics of older adult emergency department (ED) patients aged ≥65 with suicidal ideation and/or behavior. Methods: A single center retrospective chart review analyzed 392 patients (≥65) with suicidal ideation and/or behavior (2013–2019). Comprehensive full-text searches were used. Subgroup analyses for age and gender were conducted. Results: Depressive disorder was
Flood risk mitigation requires collaborative governance that involves many and diverse actors. The capacity of municipal administrations to anticipate and adapt plays a crucial role in addressing flood risk in the Nordic region. However, although flood risk often spans boundaries, each organisation's governance capacity depends largely on the formation of collaborative ties among involved politici
Background: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are a leading cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. If women at high risk for developing complications could be identified early, level of care could be triaged, limited resources could be correctly allocated and targeted interventions to prevent complications could be implemented. Methods: We updated a systematic review and meta-a
