BackgroundRight ventricular (RV) function is a major determinant of outcome in patients with pulmonary hypertension. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is gold standard to assess RV ejection fraction (RVEFCMR), however this is a crude measure. New CMR measures of RV function beyond RVEFCMR have emerged, such as RV lateral atrio-ventricular plane displacement (AVPDlat), maximum emptying velocity (S’C
Intraosseous (IO) access is normally reserved for emergencies and critical care conditions when venous cannulation is not possible. Nonetheless, we present a case of IO insertion to a 56-year-old man, tetraplegic for many years due to progressive spinal muscular atrophy and with refractory suffering. The IO access was used for palliative sedation with propofol in a home care setting. The patient d
Background—aim: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) and alcohol use disorder (AUD) can occur concomitantly and be associated with coagulopathy that influences TBI outcome. The use of bleeding time tests in TBI management is controversial. We hypothesized that in TBI patients with AUD, a prolonged bleeding time is associated with more severe injury and poor outcome. Material and methods: Moderate and seve
Den aisopiska fabeln etablerades som genre i den grekiska antiken och nådde Skandinavien under medeltiden. I svensk kultur upplevde fabeln en storhetstid under den tidigmoderna epoken (1500–1800). Monografin Fabelbruk i svensk tidigmodernitet. En genrehistorisk studie tar ett helhetsgrepp om fabelgenrens historia i Sverige under denna 300-årsperiod. I dialog med ny internationell fabel- och genrefEstablished as a genre in Greek antiquity, the Aesopic fable reached Scandinavia during the Middle Ages. In Sweden, the fable experienced its glory days during the early modern epoch (1500–1800). The monograph Fabelbruk i svensk tidigmodernitet. En genrehistorisk studie [Usage of Fable in Swedish Early Modernity. A Genre History] takes a comprehensive look at the history of fable in Sweden during
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
A reliable serological marker of acute cellular rejection (ACR) after small bowel transplantation (SBTx) is still missing. Plasma citrulline level (PCL) reflects the functional integrity of intestinal mucosa which is partially lost during ACR. The aim of our study was to investigate the role of PCL as marker of ACR after SBTx. Eighteen German landrace pigs were used and divided into three groups.
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) forms highly deformable aggregates with broad variations in size and morphology, complicating controlled separation and biological analysis. Reliable methods to isolate fractions of GAS clusters with defined properties are essential for studying host–pathogen interactions that depend on cluster size. Here, we present a simple deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) mic
BackgroundLongitudinal data on weight change, its timing, and the age of obesity onset in relation to cause-specific mortality are limited.MethodsFrom ODDS, a nationwide pooled cohort study in Sweden, we included 258,269 men and 361,784 women with at least three weight assessments between ages 17 and 60, collected in 1963–2015. We applied linear mixed-effects models to estimate weight trajectories
Bakgrund: Patienter med avancerad gastrointestinal (GI) cancer har en hög symtombörda, vilket ofta medför behov av akutsjukvård. Integration av tidig, hem-baserad specialiserad palliativ vård (SPV) tillsammans med tumörspecifik behandling kan påverka behov av akut sjukvård.Metoder: Vid initiering av palliativ kemoterapi randomiserades patienter med avancerad GI-cancer till tidig hem-baserad SPV inBackgroundPatients with advanced gastrointestinal (GI) cancer experience a high symptom burden which frequently necessitates emergency care. Integration of early home-based specialised palliative care (SPC) with tumour-specific treatments may impact emergency healthcare use.MethodsAt the initiation of palliative chemotherapy, patients with advanced GI cancer were randomised to early home-based SPC
Embedded control system design is a complex and error prone task, and there is a great need for better development tools. Today most real-time control systems are static systems, designed in an ad-hoc fashion. A more interactive way of working would give shorter development times, reduced costs for testing, and safer, more robust systems. This thesis presents an interactive prototyping tool called

The Swedish system for crisis management is changing. Among other things, this has resulted in the law (2002:833) concerning extraordinary events in times of peace in municipalities and county councils, which states that municipalities must produce a plan for the management of extraordinary events. In this thesis, a hypothesis concerning how this plan can be based on risk- and vulnerability analys
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
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
