Examination of nationalist ideologies via two films from the former Yugoslavia in which the underground plays a major role – Emir Kusturica's Underground and Srdjan Dragojevic's Pretty Village, Pretty Flame.

This paper presents the main features of the TURNUS co-exploration environment, an unified design space exploration framework suitable for heterogeneous parallel systems designed using an high level dataflow representation. The main functions of this tool are illustrated through the analysis of a video decoder implemented in the RVC-CAL dataflow language.

The aim of this population-based study was to (1) describe living conditions and actual health care utilization among 85 year olds; (2) determine factors that affect hospital admissions in this age. The study was conducted on 85-year-old residents in Linköping municipality, Sweden. The data collected included medical records, health care utilization during the preceding 12 months and a postal ques

Context: There are limited reliable epidemiological data concerning whether individuals with benign/malignant parathyroid tumor are at an elevated risk of developing nonendocrine malignancies or vice versa. Objective: The objective of the study was to quantify these risks, especially risk of parathyroid tumors after other cancers. Design: This was a population-based retrospective cohort study. Par

Objective. To psychometrically evaluate the Swedish translations of the short forms of the Pelvic Floor Impact Questionnaire (PFIQ-7), Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory (PFDI-20) and Pelvic organ prolapse/Urinary incontinence Sexual questionnaire (PISQ-12). Design and setting. University hospital. Sample. Forty-four patients awaiting prolapse surgery. Methods. The dual panel translation method follo

The paper deals with the Cauchy problem for the linear constant-coefficient strongly hyperbolic system $u_t+Au_x=({1}/{delta})B$. The critical case where $B$ has a nontrivial nullspace is investigated. Under suitable assumptions on the matrices $A$ and $B$ the convergence in $L_2$ as $delta o 0$ of the solution $u(·,t,delta)$ of the Cauchy problem is proved. Then the evolution of the limit funct

Air quality standards are set to protect public health. The values of the standards are often based on health effect studies, without any statistical considerations. In order to judge if a standard is met measurements of ambient air quality are taken at monitoring stations, and these measured values are used to decide whether or not the standard has been violated. In this paper we examine the stat

Popular Abstract in Swedish De flesta av Sveriges cirka 15000 större broar är byggda i betong. Ett problem som kan uppkomma i betongbroar är sprickor, vilka kan bidra till att minska broarnas beständighet och säkerhet. I en del broar har fler sprickor uppkommit på sydsidan än på nordsidan vilket antyder att solen har stor påverkan på dessa broar, eftersom det är den enda faktor som skiljer sig väsWhen the temperature changes in the environment the temperature will also change in a structure. Complex interactions of climate factors affect the temperature changes. When the temperature is varied in a material it will expand or contract, and movements will be produced. If the movements are prevented, stresses may be induced which can contribute to cracks in the structure. Severe cracks have be

Inpatient withdrawal treatment (detoxification) is common in opioid dependence, although dropout against medical advice often limits its outcome. This study aimed to assess baseline predictors of dropout from inpatient opioid detoxification with buprenorphine, including age, gender, current substance use, and type of postdetoxification planning. A retrospective hospital chart review was carried ou

Using delayed-coincidence techniques we have measured the natural radiative lifetimes of several S and D states in Rb and Cs. The states were excited by a pulsed dye laser from the first P state, populated using an rf discharge lamp.
