BACKGROUND: Cardiac surgery places extensive stress on spouses who often are more worried than the patients themselves. Spouses can experience difficult and demanding situations when the partner becomes critically ill. OBJECTIVES: To identify, describe, and conceptualize the individual needs of spouses of patients with complications of heart failure after cardiac surgery. METHODS: Grounded theory

I Sverige prövas flera tusen mål som handlar om vårdnaden över barn varje år. Oavsett om vårdnaden tillfaller den ena föräldern, den andra eller båda, innebär processen en livsförändrande situation för det barn som står i centrum. Barnets rätt att komma till tals och barnets bästa utgör två grundläggande rättigheter som stadgas i artikel 12 respektive artikel 3 i Förenta nationernas konvention om In Sweden, several thousand cases concerning child custody are adjudicated each year. Regardless of whether custody is awarded to one parent, the other, or jointly, the process represents a profound and often life-altering experience for the child at the center of the dispute. The child’s right to be heard and the principle of the child’s best interests constitute two fundamental rights. They are

The purpose of this thesis is to examine whether the reverse charge mechanism is an efficient method to solve the VAT fraud problem in the construction sector in Sweden. To be able to answer the stated question, the effects of the reverse charge mechanism will be evaluated. The effects of the reverse charge mechanism are then analysed as to whether they are proportional to the goal, which is to de

This thesis examines the continuity, change and adaptation of blat – as a Soviet time, informal economic transaction network, that existed as a response to a non-functional economy. The analysis is based on 33 in-depth interviews conducted in 2009 during a field study in Ukraine and Belarus. The main focus is on individuals’ descriptions, justifications and explanations of their ongoing informal p

Popular Abstract in Swedish Uppskattningsvis 140–180 000 patienter i Sverige har förmaksflimmer. Den totala förekomsten är dock okänd eftersom vissa patienter också helt saknar symtom och därför inte har kännedom om sin sjukdom. Förmaksflimmer, som både kan vara kroniskt eller komma i attacker, innebär att förmaken inte aktivt pumpar ner blodet i hjärtats kammare. Istället sker mer okoordinerade sBackground: Oral antigoagulation treatment (OAT) with warfarin have a narrow therapeutic window and patients exhibit a highly variable doseresponse that is attributable to genetic, disease-related,and environmental factors as well as prescription and nonprescription drugs, dietary vitamin K and alcohol. The effect of warfarin treatement on blood coagulation is measured using international normaliz

We have carried out muon spin relaxation (mu SR), neutron diffraction, and inelastic neutron scattering (INS) investigations on polycrystalline samples of Ce(Ru1-xFex)(2)Al-10 (x = 0, 0.3, 0.5, 0.8, and 1) to investigate the nature of the ground state (magnetic ordered versus paramagnetic) and the origin of the spin-gap formation as evident from the bulk measurements in the end members. Our zero-f

Objective . Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is an independent and modifiable risk factor for development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Postprandial lipid metabolism has been linked to CVD, but little is known about the postprandial LDL-C profile in patients with type-2 diabetes (T2DM). We aimed to study the postprandial levels of LDL-C in T2DM patients. Material and methods . After

GLP-1 receptor agonists may provide an alternative to prandial insulin for advancing basal insulin therapy. Harmony 6 was a randomized, open-label, active-controlled trial testing once-weekly albiglutide vs thrice-daily prandial insulin lispro as an add-on to titrated once-daily insulin glargine.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Patients taking basal insulin (with or without oral agents) with HbA1c 7-1

The Mediterranean Sea has been identified as one of the hotspots for climate change. Intense warming in the Mediterranean Sea may have strong implications for biological activity and ecosystem functioning. To elucidate the effects of warming on planktonic and benthic metabolism, we performed experiments under different increasing temperature regimes, ranging from three to six different temperature

In this work we investigate nascent soot particles by analyzing laser-induced incandescence (LII) signals obtained in low-sooting premixed flames. The analysis covers two data sets obtained in separate experimental campaigns. The first data set was obtained in a previous work (Mouton et al., 2013) in methane/oxygen/nitrogen flames (equivalence ratio range 1.95 < Phi < 2.32) at 26.7 kPa, whereas th

Objective: The Swedish Registry for Active Treatment of Uraemia (SRAU) was founded in 1991 with the objective of documenting demographic data on patients treated for end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The aim of this study was to describe the prevalence, incidence, comorbidity risk factors and survival of patients with ESRD who underwent dialysis treatment and/or kidney transplantation in Sweden betw

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna rapport behandlar trafiklaster på broar och de lasteffekter som de ger upphov till. Böjmoment och tvärkraft för olika brotyper beskrivs i form av statistiska fördelningar med tillhörande parametrar. Dessa är baserade på mätningar av verklig trafik gjorda i Sverige under åren 2002-2003 i Vägverkets regi. Resultaten finns redovisade i Vägverket (2004b), och finns laThis thesis treats traffic load effects in road bridges and in particular bending moment and shear force in different types of bridges. All traffic load effects are described in terms of statistical distribution functions for annual extreme values. The statistical distributions are based on measurements of real traffic, made in Sweden during 2002-2003. The measurements are managed by the Swedish R

This essay is essentially an analytical comparison of economic and democratic values. The purpose of this is to understand whether or not a conflict of values is in effect, given that democratic values have been expressed as highly desirable and in need of reinforcement while simultaneously economic values in the shape of New Public Management enjoy widespread acceptance and implementation. Den

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Sen den industriella revolutionen har koldioxidhalten i atmosfären nästan fördubblats, från 280 ppm till 360 ppm. Detta har skapat stora diskussioner om hur vårt klimat kommer att påverkas. Koldioxid (CO2) är en växthusgas och med detta menas att den absorberar inkommande energi och på så sätt värmer upp vår jord. I denna studie har fokusen lagts på hur vegetatiIncreasing levels of CO2 in the atmosphere may substantially increase net primary productivity (NPP) and thereby increase carbon sequestration by terrestrial ecosystems. Realistic Free Air Carbon Enrichment (FACE) experiments tend to show a NPP enhancement of about 25% if CO2 is elevated by 200 ppm. In this study two generalized vegetation models, the Lund-Postsdam-Jena dynamic generalized vegetat

Background The purpose of these studies was to compare efficacy and toxicity of docetaxel alone with the combination of gemcitabine and docetaxel for treatment of metastatic esophageal carcinoma. Patients and methods These studies enrolled patients with histopathologically verified squamous cell carcinoma or adenocarcinoma of the esophagus or cardia. Between March 1997 and June 1999, 52 patients w

Background: Early diagnosis of breast cancer treatment-related lymphedema (BCRL) is of great importance for longstanding treatment results. Tissue dielectric constant (TDC) and bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) both have a potential for early diagnosis, but have not been compared. Methods and Results: One hundred women, treated for breast cancer with breast surgery, axillary dissection, and radiothe
