Kommunikation hos autistiska barn är ett universellt problem inom vården då barnen ofta lider av svåra kontakt-, kommunikation- och beteendestörningar. För att öka kunskapen och därmed förbättra mötet mellan vårdpersonal och autistiska barn krävs kunskap om olika kommunikations-alternativ. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att förmedla kunskap om hur autistiska barn kommunicerar samt olika eff
Syftet med litteraturstudien var att beskriva hälsouppfattning, compliance och coping hos ungdomar och vuxna med cystisk fibros och hur deras närmaste omgivning uppfattar såväl hälsa som sjukdom. Jag har även valt att belysa sjuksköterskans omvårdnadsinsatser utifrån ovanstående tre begrepp. Metoden består av granskning och analysering av tio vetenskapliga artiklar från England, USA och Canada, pu
Can art change the world?Issues like climate change and unsustainable natural resource consumption are climbing ever higher on the international political agenda. Scientific reports, media coverage and information campaigns advise the public about these complex matters, including the environmental impact of human activity. It can however be difficult to engage people with facts and figures alone.T
The results of an experimental investigation of the effects of the degree of cementation on the mechanical behaviour of a porous artificial rock with crushable grains are presented. The studied material is an analogue of real cemented granular materials, such as pyroclastic weak rocks, carbonate sands, calcarenites and compacted decomposed granite. The present study aims to clarify the role of the
Molluscum contagiosum is a viral infection of the epidermis characterized by skin-colored papules or nodules frequently with a central depression. Atypical variants may occur, primarily in immunosuppressed individuals. We here report a case of »giant Molluscum contagiosum« in an immunocompetent child. The patient was presented with a fairly smooth nodule of 2 cm in diameter on the ring finger. Mol
A critical edition of the correspondence of the Swedish consul in Marseille, François Philippe Fölsch, this book takes a fresh look at trade and geopolitics in the eighteenth-century Mediterranean, the mechanisms used to combat the plague, and revolutionary events in Marseille.
The paper takes up a well-known constitutional subject concerning the limitations of private bills by reformulating the problem in system theoretical terms. This move allows for examining how the law as a social system carries through the task of establishing distinctions between legal/illegal in a situation where there is no precedence in the form of prior court decisions. After a short introduct
In 2018, an AI system named by its creator DABUS (Device for the Autonomous Bootstrapping of Unified Sentience) was credited by its creator to have independently invented a neural flame and a fractal container. According to its creator, DABUS is a ‘sentient artificial general intelligence can replicate all aspects of human cognition, including perception, creativity, consciousness, and sentience’
Mutations in the gene encoding Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) result in X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), an immunodeficiency of antibody defect. By using base excision sequence scanning method (BESS) followed by direct sequencing we found in seven unrelated families with a classical XLA phenotype various mutations including six novel mutations (g.64512_64513insC, c.108_109insG, c.1700_1701insACTAC
The aim of this study was to describe experiences of physical activity, perceived meaning and importance of, and motives and barriers for participation in physical activity, among people 80 years of age and older. A qualitative design with focus-group methodology was used. The sample consisted of 20 community-living people aged 80-91 years. Data analyses revealed four themes: physical activity as
