OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the extent of Activities of Daily Living (ADL) ability impairment in newly arrived Danish asylum seekers. It was hypothesized that exposure to trauma and torture would negatively influence ADL performance and that measures of ADL ability would be lower in individuals exposed to torture as compared to the non-tortured.SUBJECTS: Forty-three newly arri
Fabrication and characterisation of buried metal contacts in compound semiconductors are demonstrated. The contacts have been investigated due to their usage both as gates in transistors and as active or passive elements in novel devices. A detailed description of the processing conditions for fabrication of nm-sized W-structures in a lift-off process is given. These structures have been embedded
En fastighetsaffär är för de allra flesta en stor affär, kanske den allra största man gör i sitt liv, och konsekvenserna kan därför också bli stora, både för köpare och säljare. En av frågeställningarna vid ett köp är ansvarsfördelningen mellan köpare och säljare och det finns många rättsfall genom åren där köparens undersökningsplikt vid köp av fast egendom prövas i svenska domstolar. Enligt JordA property transaction is for most people an important deal, and the impact can therefore also be great, both for buyers and sellers. One of the issues of a purchase is the division of responsibilities for errors between the buyer and the seller, and there are many court cases over the years where the buyer's duty to investigate the purchase of property is tried in Swedish courts. According to
Healthy adult laboratory rats were exposed to alternating negative pressure and atmospheric pressure to replicate the clinical situation found in patients with chronic sniffing habits and chronic middle ear disease. The rats were placed in a box in which the pressure changed at intervals of 30 s between atmospheric pressure and a negative pressure of -3 kPa. This was repeated continuously or perio
Long-term phenology monitoring has documented numerous examples of changing flowering dates during the last century. A pivotal question is whether these phenological responses are adaptive or not under directionally changing climatic conditions. We use a classic dynamic growth model for annual plants, based on optimal control theory, to find the fitness-maximizing flowering time, defined as the sw
The present study aimed to investigate how the impact of several factors linked to geography would shape life-history traits in a gregarious species, using the pine processionary moth (PPM) Thaumetopoea pityocampa as a model system. PPM has a wide geographical distribution over the Mediterranean Basin, and it is a strictly gregarious species throughout larval development, where the total reproduct
A comparison between three different types of particle sizing instruments (fast mobility particle sizer, FMPS; electrical low pressure impactor, ELPI; and scanning mobility particle sizer, SMPS) and one condensation particle counter (CPC) was made to compare instrument response in terms of size distributions and number concentration. Spherical oil droplets in 39 different sizes, with geometric mea
AIMS: Children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) risk and islet autoantibodies are recruited to a secondary prevention study. The aims were to determine metabolic control in relation to human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genetic risk and islet autoantibodies in prepubertal children. METHODS: In 47 healthy children with GADA and at least one additional islet autoantibody, intravenous glucose tolerance test (Iv
In enology, "Brett" character refers to the wine spoilage caused by the yeast Dekkera/Brettanomyces bruxellensis and its production of volatile phenolic off-flavours. However, the spoilage potential of this yeast is strain-dependent. Therefore, a rapid and reliable recognition at the strain level is a key point to avoid serious economic losses. The present work provides an operative tool to assess
Currently available research suggests that negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) creates a moist wound healing environment, drains exudate, reduces tissue edema, contracts the wound edges, mechanically stimulates the wound bed, and influences blood perfusion at the wound edge, which may lead to angiogenesis and the formation of granulation tissue. Although no clear evidence is available that NPWT
The aim of this study was to explore how care managers defined their mission and the needs of the elderly. Interviews were carried out with four care managers all working in a public authority in a middle-sized municipality in southern Sweden. The results were analysed using Michael Lipsky's theory of the street-level bureaucrat. The study showed that the care managers are caught between the d
In the last year Sweden and especially Skåne in Sweden has experienced rapid growth in immigration rates. Combined with already existing levels of immigration, many headlines has screamed out bold words, - “crisis, collapse, racism” and generally questioned the unclear future for Sweden. Immigration has caused increase in population and therefore the need for cities to develop in larger extents. B

Antipsychotics are mainly used for severe psychiatric disorders. Risperidone is the only antipsychotic approved for younger children. Aripiprazole is approved for older children, ziprasidone and lurasidone for adolescents. To describe paediatric utilisation of antipsychotic drugs in Sweden. Dispensations of antipsychotic drugs to children aged 5–17 years from 2008 to 2021 were analysed using the N
Identification of genomic rearrangements by microarrays or short-read sequencing frequently lacks information about the exact architecture and breakpoints of variants due to technical limitations. Independent verification of complex structural variants (SVs) is often performed using custom targeted assays, making confirmation of clinically relevant findings time consuming and laborious. In this st
This study presents a transformative advancement in water-energy nexus management by developing a hydrostatic pressure wheel (HPW) system that simultaneously optimizes water level regulation and hydropower generation in open-channel irrigation systems (OCISs)—a dual functionality not achieved by existing technologies. While conventional waterwheels focus solely on energy production, our HPW design

Background: A trial fibrillation (AF) is a common problem in pacemaker patients. We conducted a prospective observational study in patients paced for bradycardia with associated paroxysmal or persistent AF, to determine whether P-wave duration may stratify patients at higher risk for AF recurrences and AF-related hospitalizations. The patients were evaluated for the prevalence, cause, and predicto
The chemical composition and dissociation behaviour of water adsorbed on clean and oxygen pre-covered Pd{111} was studied using high-resolution time-resolved and temperature-programmed X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. We find that water remains intact at all temperatures up to desorption on the clean surface and at high oxygen coverage(0.69 ML) when a surface oxide is formed. The highest desorpti
