BACKGROUND: Patients who misuse alcohol are at increased risk for surgical complications. Four weeks of preoperative abstinence decreases the risk of complications, but practical approaches for early preoperative identification of alcohol misuse are needed. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether results of alcohol screening with the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test - Consumption (AUDIT-C) questi

Background: Childhood tension-type headache (TTH) is a prevalent and debilitating condition for the child and family. Low-cost nonpharmacological treatments are usually the first choice of professionals and parents. This study examined the outcomes of specific strength training for girls with TTH. Methods: Forty-nine girls aged 9–18 years with TTH were randomized to patient education programs with

High diagnostic efficiency as well as the optimization of patient and staff doses in positron emission tomography (PET) can be achieved by implementing quality assurance program. This study was focused on the requirements and basic aspects of quality assurance (QA) in PET combined with computed tomography (CT), that include equipment quality control (QC). QA systems include methods of image QC, ex

BACKGROUND: Situational needs of health care facilities inform the optimal allocation of resources and quality improvement efforts. This study examines surgical care delivery metrics at a tertiary care institution in Liberia. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed operative and ward logbooks from January 1 to December 31, 2012. Data parameters included patients' age, diagnosis, procedure, mortality,

Råd och anvisningar för uppsatsarbete Socialhögskolan vid Lunds universitet September 2022 Förord Arbetet med Råd och anvisningar för uppsatsarbete inleddes för cirka femton år sedan av Katarina Jacobsson, som var huvudansvarig för den första upplagan och därefter också hållit i den löpande översynen.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det jordmagnetiska fältet kan till stor del (80-90%) beskrivas av ett dipolfält, producerat av en magnet i mitten av jorden med en lutning på 11° från rotationsaxeln. Magnetfältet genereras av konvektionsströmmar i den flytande järnrika yttre delen av kärnan i form av en jättelik dynamo, och tros ha varit aktivt sedan kärnan bildades för ungefär 4.5 miljarder år sedan. Palaeomagnetic studies of continuous geological archives and archaeological artefacts are required to reconstruct geomagnetic field changes beyond the range of historical observations. In this thesis I assess the reliability of sedimentary palaeomagnetic data and Holocene dipole field reconstructions. New palaeomagnetic records are presented from a maar crater lake in New Zealand and a post-glacia

Objectives: First, to outline the theoretical and practical framework for geriatric rehabilitation in the Nordic countries and second, to survey the scientific medical publications for evidence-based geriatric rehabilitation. Methods: Brainstorming on geriatric rehabilitation in a working group of Nordic teachers in geriatric medicine. Papers on scientific programmes for geriatric rehabilitation f

BACKGROUND: Rehabilitation pathways are crucial to reduce stroke-related disability. Motivational Interviewing (MI), as a person-centered complex intervention, aimed to empower and motivate, and could be a resource to improve rehabilitation outcomes for older stroke survivors. The IMAGINE project aims to assess the impact of MI, as a complement to standard geriatric rehabilitation, on functional i

Despite the potential of smart home technologies (SHT) to support everyday activities, the implementation rate of such technology in the homes of older adults remains low. The overall aim of this study was to explore factors involved in the decision-making process in adopting SHT among current and future generations of older adults. We also aimed to identify and understand barriers and facilitator

Private labels (PL) have gone from being a marginal and rather odd phenomenon in the gro-cery sector 20 years ago, to having a prominent role in the grocery retailing landscape, ac-counting for approximately 25-30% of what is sold in Swedish food stores today. Given the enormous turnover of the grocery trade, amounting to 326 billion SEK in 2023 according to Statistics Sweden (SCB), this is a rema

PURPOSE: Dynamic glucose enhanced (DGE) MRI studies employ CEST or spin lock (CESL) to study glucose uptake. Currently, these methods are hampered by low effect size and sensitivity to motion. To overcome this, we propose to utilize exchange-based linewidth (LW) broadening of the direct water saturation (DS) curve of the water saturation spectrum (Z-spectrum) during and after glucose infusion (DS-

Shallow lakes worldwide face escalating pressures from eutrophication and climate change, yet comprehensive monitoring of Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) spatiotemporal dynamics remains challenging due to the high costs and logistical constraints of traditional sampling approaches across large, heterogeneous water bodies. Lake Balaton, a large shallow lake system (80 km long, 7 km wide, 3.7 m mean depth) in

Abstract – Introduction: Peripheral intravenous catheterization is commonly required in sick neonates but remains challenging due to small vessels, leading to multiple attempts and complications. This review evaluated the benefits and harms of device-assisted techniques versus standard technique. Methods: We searched MEDLINE, Embase, CENTRAL, Cochrane Reviews, WHO ICTRP, and ClinicalTrials.gov (Oc

PURPOSE: The local immune infiltrate's influence on tumor progression may be closely linked to tumor-intrinsic factors. The study aimed to investigate whether integrating immunologic and tumor-intrinsic factors can identify patients from a low-risk cohort who may be candidates for radiotherapy (RT) de-escalation.EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: The SweBCG91RT trial included 1,178 patients with stage I to IIA

Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major risk factor for ischaemic stroke and transient ischaemic attack (TIA), and AF detection can be challenged by asymptomatic and paroxysmal presentation. Long-term ECG monitoring after ischaemic stroke or TIA is recommended by all major societies in cardiology and cerebrovascular medicine as a secondary prophylactic measure. However, data on stroke red

Background. National as well as international Parkinson's disease (PD) treatment guidelines are available to guide clinicians. Previous research has shown that nonmotor symptoms (NMS) are pronounced in late-stage PD and has suggested that current treatment is insufficient and could be improved. Objectives. The aim of this study was to investigate to which degree the national and international trea

Background: Deferred (also known as delayed) cord clamping can improve survival of infants born preterm (before 37 weeks of gestation), but the optimal duration of deferral remains unclear. We conducted a systematic review and individual participant data network meta-analysis with the aim of comparing the effectiveness of umbilical cord clamping strategies with different timings of clamping or wit
