OBJECTIVES: Substandard and falsified medical products are, according to the World Health Organization, a global threat to public health. To evaluate if community pharmacy employees can guide the public to safer medication purchases, their knowledge and experience about SF medical products was examined.METHODS: A digital questionnaire was distributed to the five dominating pharmacy companies in Sw
The publication of most excavation areas at San Giovenale has made it possible to offer a much more detailed and more accurate account of the use of architectural terracottas at the site. This article presents the finds according to categories and types as well as according to their distribution in different excavation areas. It also discusses technical matters and chronological issues. A survey o
PURPOSE: This observational study examined the relationship between self-reported dietary patterns-omnivore, pescatarian, vegetarian, and vegan-and iron status among Swedish teenage girls. Additionally, we compared the consumption of various food groups in relation to iron status.METHODS: Data were collected from 475 female high school students in Malmö and Lund, Sweden, using questionnaires on di
BACKGROUND: Human diets account for 30% of greenhouse gas emissions (GHGE). Reporting dietary GHGE with or without energy standardization yields different outcomes, often resulting in conflicting conclusions regarding associations with micronutrient intake.OBJECTIVES: To compare methods of reporting dietary GHGE, with and without consideration of energy intake, and their respective associations wi
Background: The feedback of the surveillance results to the employee and the employer largely determines the impact of workers’ health surveillance on workers’ health and exposure. We are unaware of any guidebooks or articles on performing feedback on regulated workers’ health surveillance, e.g., for vibration-exposed workers. Objectives: To identify existing knowledge of the communication aspects
ObjectiveThe relationships between carotid intima-media thickness (C-IMT) and β cell function and insulin resistance in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) have not been fully elucidated. This study is to investigate whether impaired glucose metabolism is etiologically associated with C-IMT in patients with T2D.MethodsThe study group consisted of 490 (284 men, 206 women) participants. Venous blood
This is the first report comparing EULAR and national treatment recommendations for PsA patients across Europe, and the first this decade to compare ASAS-EULAR and national treatment recommendations in axSpA patients. An electronic survey was completed from October 2021–April 2022 by rheumatologists in 15 European countries. One and four countries followed all EULAR and ASAS-EULAR recommendations,
Existing epidemiological evidence regarding the potential role of (poly)phenol intake in prostate cancer (PCa) risk is scarce and, in the case of flavonoids, it has been suggested that their intake may increase PCa risk. We investigated the associations between the intake of the total and individual classes and subclasses of (poly)phenols and the risk of PCa, including clinically relevant subtypes
Among thermal improvements of external walls in heritage buildings, interior insulation of external walls might be the only option. However, interior insulation is associated with several risks of damage due to the diminishment of the hygrothermal performance of the existing wall. This project aims to assess the impact of available solutions for interior insulation through field measurements and h
Gene amplification is a crucial process in cancer development, leading to the overexpression of oncogenes. It manifests cytogenetically as extrachromosomal double minutes (dmin), homogeneously staining regions (hsr), or ring chromosomes (r). This study investigates the prevalence and distribution of these amplification markers in a survey of 80 131 neoplasms spanning hematologic disorders, and ben
Aims Gene fusions assays are key for personalised treatments of advanced human cancers. Their implementation on cytological material requires a preliminary validation that may make use of cell line slides mimicking cytological samples. In this international multi-institutional study, gene fusion reference standards were developed and validated. Methods Cell lines harbouring EML4(13)–ALK(20) and SL
Merparten studier som har undersökt hur nattjour påverkar prestation, hälsa och säkerhet, har genomförts i USA där det är vanligt med mycket långa arbetsveckor och arbetspass. Aktuell studie avsåg undersöka effekter av nattjour beträffande kognitiv funktion, riskutsatthet och belastning, under förhållanden representativa för svensk sjukvårdsorganisation. I studien deltog 30 läkare i södra Sverige,Most studies examining how on call duty nighttime affects performance, health and safety, were conducted in the United States where long working weeks and shifts are common. The current study examined the effects of on call duty nighttime on physician´s performance and strain under conditions representative for Swedish healthcare organization. The study enrolled 30 physicians from southern Sweden,
In this paper I have examine how Voluntourism and its bisectional content is perceived and justified by operators who are active in the volunteer travel industry. I have taken a qualitative approach and I chose to do an observational study and complementing it with four interviews. Most of my material is obtained from a volunteer organization in Thailand but two of the interviews were made with vo
Examensarbetet har utvecklat en metod för att estimera den fraktala dimensionen från Transmissions Elektron Mikroskop (TEM) bilder av sot aggregat som skapats med hjälp av en mini-CAST sotgenerator. Det är ett underbestämt problem att estimera den fraktala dimensionen, en 3D egenskap, från 2D bilder. Lösningen är syntetiserade TEM bilder som baserats på projektioner av numeriskt simulerade aggregaIn this master’s thesis a method for estimating the fractal dimension from Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) images of soot aggregates has been developed, and also applied to TEM images of soot sampled from a mini-CAST soot generator. The problem to estimate the fractal dimension, a 3D property, from a 2D image is undetermined. To solve this, TEM images were synthesised based on projections o
Studiens syfte var att undersöka mäns upplevelser av abort innan, under och efter genomförandet. Studien ämnade få en fördjupad förståelse av mäns känslor, tankar och ageranden kopplat till abort. Sju semistrukturerade intervjuer utfördes och analyserades utifrån en induktiv tematisk ansats. Åtta huvudteman framkom: Kvinnans beslut, ansvar, känslor som uppstått, upplevelsen av stöd, kommunikationeThe aim of the study was to investigate the male experience of abortion and gain a deepened understanding for what feelings, thoughts and actions have occurred. Seven semistructured interviews were conducted and analyzed within an inductive thematic framework. Eight themes emerged: The woman’s decision, responsibility, feelings that arised, experiences of support, the communication with the partne
This thesis work produces and evaluates a self learning algorithm that detects user access patterns in a Physical Access Control System (PACS). Self learning algorithms and pattern detection are both well researched areas with numerous methodologies. However, no one method can be used for all problems and this project focuses on hierarchical clustering for a particular problem where no solutions h
There are many contributing factors, to why Northern Ireland is regarded as a prime example for conflict resolution. In this thesis, we will seek to test the factors, that several scholars and politicians, such as; Tony Blair, Peter Hain and Jennifer Todd, have argued were the most important to create piece. This will be done through a comparative study with Cyprus, which is still regarded an acti
The Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) of the European Union (EU) is based on the Member States’ foreign policy preferences. Several third states are however at times invited to align with certain CFSP acts, a procedure which provides the EU with support for its diplomatic efforts. The degrees to which these invited states align with CFSP acts differ substantially. This thesis has taken a b
Curitiba is the capital of the state of Paraná, in the south of Brazil. One of the main environmental issues Curitiba faces today is related to flooding and cloudburst events. They are caused not only due to climate change but also due to the piping of many rivers, the pollution on the water systems and the irregular settlements around the floodplains. The rivers that were once part of the cultu
