Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund: Patientflödet genom en akutmottagning regleras framförallt av tre typer av faktorer. Dessa rör i tur och ordning inflödet-, genomflödet- och utflödet av patienter. Faktorer som reglerar inflödet rör efterfrågan på sjukvård (t.ex. samhällsdemografi och tillgång på primärvård), medan faktorer som reglerar genomflödet till största delen rör akutmottagningens inteBackground: Emergency Department (ED) overcrowding occurs when the need for ED services outstrips available resources. Causes have been divided into input, throughput, and output factors, of which the last appear to be the most influential. Unavailability of inpatient beds (so-called “access block,” or “hospital crowding”) impairs ED output and is associated with increased waiting times in the ED

Intracerebral neural transplantation offers a new strategy to combat Parkinson’s and Huntington’s diseases. However, a host immune response against a histoincompatible neural graft in the brain may jeopardize transplant survival. We transplanted dissociated mesencephalic tissue prepared from Sprague-Dawley (SD) (syngeneic), Lewis (allogeneic) rats or mice (xenogeneic), into 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OH

Protein S deficiency is an autosomal dominant trait affecting around 10% of families thrombophilic families. The high affinity interaction of approximately 60% of protein S with C4b -binding protein (C4BP) has raised a complicated situation for the diagnosis of deficiency states. Because only free protein S functions as cofactor in the protein C anticoagulant, it is important to measure free prote

Dactylorhiza majalis subsp. sphagnicola is an allotetraploid marsh orchid derived from parents closely similar to present-day D. incarnata and the western European form of D. maculata subsp. maculata, suggesting that it has a postglacial origin. It extends from northwestern continental Europe into areas formerly covered by the Weichselian ice sheet in mid-Scandinavia. Here, we studied the variatio

The use of Penman-Monteith (PM) equation in thermal remote sensing based surface energy balance modeling is not prevalent due to the unavailability of any direct method to integrate thermal data into the PM equation and due to the lack of physical models expressing the surface (or stomatal) and boundary layer conductances (g(S) and g(B)) as a function of surface temperature. Here we demonstrate a

Pollen analyses and AMS C-14 measurements were performed on lacustrine sediments and peat deposits from the former crater lake Steregoiu in a mid-altitude area in the Gutaiului Mountains in NW Romania in order to provide a detailed reconstruction of the vegetational development of the area during the Late-Glacial and Holocene. The bottom sediments are siliciclastic and were deposited probably duri

Eastern New South Wales (NSW), Australia, is a region prone to frequent and intense droughts. An unprecedented episode of high temperatures and low rainfall in 2017–2019 culminating in the 2019-2020 summer triggered massive canopy dieback of eucalypt forests throughout the region. Subsequent high rainfall in 2020 offered a unique and rare opportunity to study the process of vegetation recovery fol

Air sampling and biological sampling have been performed to examine the exposure to nicotine in the Nicorette patch and Nicorette gum production at Pfizer Health AB in Helsingborg, Sweden. For this purpose stationary and personal sampling equipment have been used. At the Nicorette patch production, XAD-2 tubes were used to sample nicotine vapor and at the Nicorette gum production Teflon filters we

The aim of this study was to examine the infiltration rate of water and some parameters affecting it. Especially the land usage, the abundance of roots and macropores were investigated. A field study was carried out on western Java in Indonesia, on the slope of Mount Salak. The study compared four different land uses; i.e. forest, shrub areas, tree plantation and cropland since there was a high o

Vilket membran lämpar sig bäst när det kommer till avskiljning av organiskt material från Bolmenvatten? Med vattendrag som blir brunare och brunare – hur ska våra dricksvattenverk klara av att säkra vårt vatten i framtiden? Svaret heter membranteknik! Vilket membran som passar bäst är däremot en svårare fråga att besvara och således också det som har undersökts i denna studie.In many places across the northern hemisphere, drinking water treatment plants (WTPs) need to avert the effects of deteriorating quality in surface water sources caused by increasing lev-els of natural organic matter (NOM). The two major factors responsible for this phenomenon, also called brownification, are the greenhouse effect and changes in soil acidification. Additional treatment steps needs

Slam från konventionell avloppsvattenrening innehåller näringsämnen samt mullbildande ämnen vilket medför att materialet utgör en resurs som växtnäring och jordförbättringsmedel. Problematiken med att använda slam är att det även innehåller främmande ämnen som metaller och svårnedbrytbara organiska föreningar.

Stratigrafiska analyser har utförts på en kustklint vid Ålabodarna i västra Skåne, vilken exponerar en skärning genom en liten dödisbassäng. Syftet med undersökningen var bl a att studera vegetationsutvecklingen i ett område som, i förhållande till övriga Skandinavien, tidigt blev isfritt. Fördelen med att arbeta med sediment i en öppen skärning i stället för i en borrkärna är att sedimentens latePopular abstract: A study of sediments from a small ancient lake basin in the cliffs at Ålabodarna, western Skåne, Sweden has revealed important information about the arrival and expansion of vegetation in the area. Western Skåne is a very important area for studies of this type, as the ice streams from the final episode of glaciation during the Late Weichselian retreated from this area early rela

En slitsmur är en geokonstruktion som utförs genom att paneler platsgjuts med marken som form. Panelerna bildar tillsammans en samverkande vägg. Tekniken är vanlig utomlands men fortfarande relativt ovanlig i Sverige. Behovet, och därmed intresset, av slitsmurar i Sverige växer dock i takt med förtätningen av städer och infrastrukturprojekt som kräver djup schaktning och anläggning. Kraven på låg A diaphragm wall is a retaining wall which is produced as a cast in-situ concrete wall. The ground itself acts as formwork. The technique is widely used internationally but it is comparably still a rare technique in Sweden. However, the need, and therefore interest in Sweden for diaphragm walls is growing as the number of inner city infrastructure projects requiring deep excavations increases. The

As the climate on earth deteriorates, actions are carried out within Europe to limit the amount of hazardous emissions to lower the environmental consequences due to greenhouse gases. A significant proportion of the emissions can be linked to the construction sector and its use of virgin resources. An area with great development potential within the construction sector is linked to its management

Dryland ecosystems are important yet understudied sinks of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and methane (CH₄), and sources of nitrous oxide (N₂O). Hence, monitoring greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes and their responses to climate change in these systems is increasingly important. This thesis investigates the potential of hyperspectral reflectance data (between 390 and 1750nm) to predict greenhouse gas fluxes during

Glasarkitektur utvecklas ständigt med ökande krav på estetik, funktionalitet, och hållbarhet. Användningen av böjda glaselement blir allt vanligare i modern byggnation. Traditionellt tillverkas krökt glas av floatglas som upphettas över glasets transitionstemperatur och formas till önskad krökning. Denna teknik är tids- och energikrävande och därmed relativt kostsam. Av denna anledning används anGlass architecture continues to evolve with increasing demands for aesthetics, functionality, and durability. The use of curved glass elements is becoming increasingly common in modern constructions. Traditionally, curved glass is made of float glass that is heated above the glass transition temperature and formed into a curved shape. This technique is time- and energy-intensive, and consequently,

Introduction Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disease, which has extensive pathology that critically includes the loss of midbrain dopaminergic neurons. This loss leads to debilitating motor features such as bradykinesia and rigidity, as well as some non-motor symptoms. Intracerebral dopamine cell transplants have been explored for many years as a new approach to treating PD
