Ostomy surgery affects life on a variety of levels. Clinicians need to facilitate the patient's adaptation to life with a stoma and provide information and support to ease the transition. To prospectively assess ostomy patients' perceptions of the quality of care received as well as the importance they ascribe to care conditions, 49 patients from nine Swedish hospitals completed a postoperative "Q

The pharmaceutical approach to skin disease has been hugely successful, but despite effective drugs being available and used, there are still vast numbers of people who continue to have some level of persisting skin disease and continue to experience quality of life (QoL) impairment. So the question that needs to be answered, while we await further advances in our drug-based armamentarium, is how

BACKGROUND: Quality control of residual white blood cells (WBCs) and red blood cells (RBCs) in leukoreduced plasma is mandatory. Although technological advances have been made, analysis of quality controls using routine hematology analyzers has not generally been introduced. The aim of this study was to evaluate if the routine hematology analyzer Sysmex XN-10, (Sysmex Nordic ApS) could be used for

The possibility of improving the physical quality of extruded fish feed using transglutaminase (TGase) treatment at different stages of the production process was investigated. The addition of TGase to the raw material mix and processing under high and medium moisture conditions significantly increased (p > 0.05) the durability, hardness and elasticity of fish feed pellets. However, the water stab

The population growth in China together with the rapid industrialization and urbanization have increased the utilization of natural resources, leading to more waste being released to the environment. Thus, the environmental conditions have degraded in many regions to a point where environmentally related problems have become the main limiting factors for economical development and social progress.

The aim was to investigate dimensions of caregiving activities among elderly (75+) caregivers based on Nolan's model and to study the dimensions in relation to health-related quality of life (Short Form 12). Responses to a Swedish postal survey (n = 4278, response rate 75-79 years old: 60%; 80-84: 56%; 85-89: 48% and 90+: 42%) showed that 783 persons (18%) were helping another person due to that p

Objective: To assess overall resource consumption, work capacity and quality of life of patients with multiple sclerosis in nine European countries. Methods: Information on resource consumption related to multiple sclerosis, informal care by relatives, productivity losses and overall quality of life (utility) was collected with a standardised pre-tested questionnaire from 13186 patients enrolled i

Aim: Tumour stage is the most important prognostic factor in colon cancer. The aim of this study was to examine the impact on the quality of pathology by the use of a standardized PAD protocol. Method: A standardized PAD protocol for colorectal cancer was developed and all patients subjected to colon resection due to adenocarcinomas between 2004 and 2006 were analyzed concerning lymph node status,

Adequate food packaging is important to ensure food quality and prolong the shelf life of food. Frequently, the method of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) is used. We used a tunable diode laser spectroscopy technique to detect the oxygen content in food packages, e.g., in packaged milk and bread. Different detection geometries were adopted to be able to collect scattering light that had passed

Mobile head-worn eye trackers allow researchers to record eye-movement data as participants freely move around and interact with their surroundings. However, participant behavior may cause the eye tracker to slip on the participant’s head, potentially strongly affecting data quality. To investigate how this eye-tracker slippage affects data quality, we designed experiments in which participants mi

Följderna av narkotikamissbruk kostar samhället stora summor pengar varje år. Att beräkna den exakta storleken på dessa summor är omöjligt, eftersom stora delar av den narkotikarelaterade verksamheten är olaglig. De kostnadsberäkningar man kan göra blir ungefärliga uppskattningar. Ändå är det viktigt att försöka, eftersom den kunskap man har om kostnaderna för narkotikamissbrukets konsekvenser utg
