To make surgery more precise and to shorten anesthesia-times for children undergoing surgery for Hirschsprung’s disease, ultra-high frequency ultrasound (UHFUS) has been suggested to replace peroperative biopsy. The study’s aim was to determine quantitatively whether aganglionic and ganglionic bowel segments could be distinguished by UHFUS. Bowel specimens of 23 children operated on for rectosigmo
Background: Catheter-associated urinary tract infections and bladder distension are common and preventable adverse events. This study presents a process evaluation of a bladder bundle, designed to change healthcare professionals’ way of thinking and acting to prevent these adverse events, using theories of organizational culture, leadership, and an integrated knowledge translation approach. Aim: T
En kortlek med 67 situationskort för universell utformning för lärande (UDL) utvecklades vid fyra internationella lärarworkshops för att hjälpa lärare att förstå och förbättra inkluderande undervisning, dvs. att vara proaktiva och förberedda på en mångfald av studenter. De utskrivna korten har hämtats eller beställts av cirka 150 personer. Denna artikel presenterar resultaten av en enkät som skickA deck of 67 context cards for Universal Design for Learning (UDL) was developed at four international teacher workshops, to help teachers understand and improve inclusive teaching, i.e. to be proactive and prepared for student diversity. The printed cards have been picked up or ordered by approximately 150 people. This paper presents the results of a questionnaire sent to 44 people.The results fr
One of the major challenges in forensic genetics is being able to detect very small amounts of DNA. Massively parallel sequencing (MPS) enables sensitive detection; however, genotype errors may exist and could interfere with the interpretation. Common errors in MPS-based analysis are often induced during PCR or sequencing. Unique molecular indices (UMIs) are short random nucleotide sequences ligat
Dialogue and engaging with the religious Other are essential questions that warrant even greater attention in the Christian communities at large. In 2020, the World Council of Churches and the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue jointly published a document on interreligious solidarity titled Serving a Wounded World in Interreligious Solidarity: A Christian Call to Reflection and Action
Magnesium (Mg) is a metal having a high structural efficiency and a very high chemical reactivity at the same time. Its potential areas of applications include the automotive industry, biomedicine, and energy storage and generation. Further developments in these very diverse application areas require a more detailed investigation of the behavior of Mg surfaces under oxidative conditions. The basic
The kinetics of the sequential adsorption of gliadins and water-soluble fraction (WSF) from the wheat variety Kosack onto hydrophobic silica (methylated silica) surfaces were studied by in situ ellipsometry. The measurements were made in water and in 0.01M acetate buffer, pH 4.0 and 5.0, with and without 0.1M NaCl. The concentration of gliadins and WSF was 1.7 µg/ml. The adsorption of gliadins in
Element 115 är arbetsnamnet för det grundämne som karaktäriseras av att atomer av ämnet har 115 protoner i sin atomkärna. Protoner är positivt laddade kärnpartiklar och är ansvariga för att atomkärnor omges av lika många negativt laddade elektroner för att bilda fullvärdiga neutrala atomer. Olika grundämnen -- såsom guld, syre och tellur -- kännetecknas av att atomerna har olika många protoner, oc
BACKGROUND Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMPs) for human use have advanced globally with the rapid adoption of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapies in haemato-oncology. CAR-T cell therapy and ATMPs have unique, significant acute and chronic toxicities, and appropriate patient care is crucial. Significant challenges, including the need for nurse education and training, accompa
Whether developed or less developed, all countries need skilled mental labor (SML) to use technologies effectively and to attain economic growth and development. Without appropriate SML, no country can make the best use of its firms and institutions. Time and investment are required for an individual to become a skilled mental laborer, but these are not sufficient. The training must be at a level
BACKGROUND: Existing conceptions of teaching quality assume that classroom interactions serve as the foundation for effective teaching. The resulting data necessitates analytical approaches capable of extracting the semantics of these interactions.AIM: This study investigates whether and to what extent lesson semantics provide insights into teaching quality (i.e., cognitive engagement, encourageme
In this article I look at two works by Swedish video artist Lina Selander and explore how underlying visual patterns unfold in these works that are connected to certain worldly phenomena. Borrowing from Jacques Derrida, I describe the tendency of being en mal d'archive as an obsession to structure the world into particular recognizable patterns. I argue that Selander's works can be understood as t
The recent past has witnessed a rising interest in examining the cultural, economic, and social implications of colonialism and especially of trans-Atlantic slavery. As a result, many academic institutions have been sanctioning research projects to ascertain their own and certain historical figures’ roles in trans-Atlantic slavery. Whilst the research undertaken is very pertinent in understanding
The overall aim of this study is to get closer look at the prehistoric individual on a more social level. This will be attempted through a qualitative understanding of how one can interpret gender using a source material from two Iron Age cemeteries both located in the very southeastern corner of Sweden. In doing this, the study revolves around a crucial understanding of three theoretical ideas: G
Background: FTV Capital is a private equity company specializing in growth equity. Even though the company has been very successful, the private equity industry is highly competitive and more and more companies are turning their strategy towards growth equity. To stand out and keep the competitive advantage, having a strong brand and communicating efficiently is particularly important for a privat
This thesis focuses on how sewdish politicians try to argue to get other EU-countries to accept a larger responsibility for refugees. Since the war in Iraq broke out in 2003 there have been a great increse in the number of refugees arriving to Europe. Sweden have accepted a very large part of these refugees. This have sparked a debate in Sweden aboute how reasonable it is that sweden accepts a pro
The loss and degradation of forest ecosystems pose a major challenge to global sustainability. Forests deliver vital ecological and social benefits; however, their governance is particularly demanding because they constitute common-pool resources. Although a growing body of research shows that Indigenous communities have developed effective and sustainable forms of forest governance, comparatively
Even though the first coronavirus pandemic was registered in 1965, SARS-CoV-2 was better acknowledged when it caused the worldwide pandemic in 2019 in which millions of individuals lost their lives. Due to its facile way of spreading from one individual to another, the number of infected cases has gone up to more than 750 million to this day. DENV is a very dangerous virus due to its asymptomatic
