The purpose of this paper is to study the transfer of knowledge between preparedness activities and emergency response at the municipal level to improve emergency response. Design/methodology/approach - A case study was carried out in the municipality of Ljungby using prewritten questions to analyse the collected empirical material. This material consisted of both municipality documents and
Species of the Lactobacillus acidophilus complex are generally considered to constitute most of the vaginal Lactobacillus flora, but the flora varies between studies. However, this may be due to difficulties in identifying the closely related species within the L. acidophilus complex by using traditional methods and to variations in the vaginal status of the participants. Two hundred two isolates
BACKGROUND: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified variants at 19p13.1 and ZNF365 (10q21.2) as risk factors for breast cancer among BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers, respectively. We explored associations with ovarian cancer and with breast cancer by tumor histopathology for these variants in mutation carriers from the Consortium of Investigators of Modifiers of BRCA1/2 (CIMBA). METHO
This dissertation is a collection of seven papers in which a number of questions are investigated regarding verbs that take a sentential complement as their direct object. These verbs are considered from different perspectives, namely from the perspective of the propositional attitude they express, or from the perspective of the syntactic construction they select, or from the point of view of the
During development primary afferents grow into and establish neuronal connections in the spinal cord, thereby forming the basis for how we perceive sensory information and control our movements. In the somatosensory system, myriads of primary afferents, conveying information from different body locations and sensory modalities, get organized in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord so that spinal mul
Visible-UV fluorescence emission of gas-phase hydrogen sulfide, H(2)S, has been studied at the S 2p edge with synchrotron radiation excitation. Dispersed fluorescence measurements in the wavelength range 300-900 nm were taken at several photon energies corresponding to the excitations of the S 2p electrons to the unoccupied molecular and Rydberg orbitals. The spectra reveal fluorescence from the H
In the present article we give a general three-dimensional formalism for scattering in two half spaces, one of which contains a bounded inhomogeneity. Our formalism consists of an extension of the transition matrix method which has been given by Waterman, a method which applies equally well to acoustic, electromagnetic, and elastic scattering. The formalism is here developed in detail for the case

Positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography (PET/CT) is a quantitative technique suitable for diagnostics and uptake measurements. The quantitative results can be used for the purpose of the calculating absorbed dose to patients undergoing nuclear medicine investigations. Hence, the accuracy of the quantification of the activity content in organs or tissues is of great importanc
Rapid developments in preoperative noninvasive imaging as well as advanced endovascular techniques have made endovascular treatment of acute arterial mesenteric ischemia a feasible treatment option in many patients. Multidetector computed tomographic angiography will provide the diagnosis and guide treatment in most cases. The use of mechanical and aspiration embolectomy, sometimes in combination
Cervical cancer remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Uganda. Despite earlier information campaigns to introduce human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccination, which also targeted cervical cancer, misinterpretation and misunderstanding of the subject remain high. Women in Uganda present with cervical cancer at an advanced stage due to poor health-seeking behaviours, with an associated hi
