The purpose of the present study was to investigate how pre-recorded fire evacuation messages should be designed and presented in order to be effective. Five different messages were tested in the study. Visitors at an IKEA store in Malmö, Sweden, evaluated all the messages. The visitors listened to one message each and were interviewed about their associations. They also filled out a questionnaire

Boken utgör fortsättningen på Klaus Scholders två inledande band (1918-34 resp. 1934). Omfånget är överväldigande (1262 sidor, enbart noterna 261 sidor). Här analyseras de olika faserna i den fortsatta kyrkokampen, evangeliskt och romersk-katolskt var för sig. Vidare behandlas bland annat den för svenska läsare bekanta Lutherakademien i Sondershausen, raslagarna och steriliseringsfrågan, men också

AIM: To develop an objective diagnostic method that facilitates detection of noncyanotic congenital heart diseases. METHODS: Heart sounds and murmurs were recorded from 60 healthy children and 173 children with noncyanotic congenital heart disease. Time intervals were measured and spectrum of the systolic murmurs analyzed. Stepwise logistic regression analysis was used to distinguish physiological

OBJECTIVE: The underlying mechanisms of the differences in sex distribution of patients with atrioventricular (AV) nodal re-entrant tachycardia and Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome are poorly understood. The objective of this study was to determine potential gender differences in the electrophysiological properties of the normal AV conduction system that may be attributable to differences in sex dis

OBJECTIVES: To assess endothelial function and vascular mechanical properties in normotensive pregnant women with high resistance in the uteroplacental circulation. DESIGN: Cross-sectional prospective study. SETTING: Doppler ultrasound laboratory at university department of obstetrics and gynaecology referral centre for high risk pregnancies. PARTICIPANTS: Forty-two caucasian normotensive pregnant

We report a case of a large, deep-seated, diagnostically difficult angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma. The neoplastic cells were positive for vimentin, calponin, CD99, and, focally, for desmin and contained intertwining cytoplasmic processes joined by desmosomelike junctions. Fusion of codon 175 of the FUS gene to codon 110 of the ATF1 gene was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reac

The variation in dietary exposure to acrylamide (AA) has been studied through measurement of hemoglobin adduct levels from AA, as a measurement of internal dose, in a sample from the blood bank of the Malmo Diet and Cancer Cohort (n = 28,098). The blood donors are well characterised with regard to their food habits, and 142 individuals were selected to obtain highest possible variation in the addu

Under de senaste femtio åren har den katolska kyrkans ställning i Sverige radikalt förändrats. Fortfarande i början av 1960-talet betraktades katolicismen allmänt som ett hot mot det svenska samhället och mot svensk kulturell identitet, inte minst inom den svenska socialdemokratin. Idag är katolska kyrkan en accepterad del av det svenska samhället. I min artikel diskuterar jag denna förändringsproThe position of the Catholic Church in Sweden has radically changed in the last forty years. At the beginning of the 1960s, Catholicism was commonly regarded as a threat to Swedish cultural identity, not least among members of the ruling Social-Democratic Party. Today, the Catholic Church is an accepted part of Swedish society. In my article, I discuss this process ofchange and its impact on Swedi

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Although the incidence of and mortality from myocardial infarction (MI) have declined in most industrialized countries, incidence studies of stroke have shown less consistent trends. This study examines time trends in the incidence of stroke and case fatality rates in relation to socioeconomic circumstances and history of MI.METHODS: Stroke incidence in the city of Malmö, S

A key virulence trait of pathogenic bacteria is the ability to bind to receptors on mucosal cells. Here the potential glycosphingolipid receptors of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli were examined by binding of S-35-labeled bacteria to glycosphingolipids on thin-layer chromatograms. Thereby a selective interaction with two nonacid glycosphingolipids of cat small intestinal epithelium was found. T

A method of assignment of the human immunoglobulin allotypes G1m(a+) and G1m(a-) without the use of serological reagents is described. It is based upon oligonucleotide-directed enzymatic amplification of genomic segments encoding CH3 of gamma chains, followed by dot-blot hybridization of radioactively labelled oligonucleotides to the amplified DNA. The method was used to classify the immunoglobuli

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) caused by deposition of amyloid beta (A beta) peptides in the cerebrovasculature, involves degeneration of normal vascular components and increases the risk of infarction and cerebral hemorrhage. Accumulating evidence suggests that sporadic CAA is also a significant contributor to cognitive decline and dementia in the elderly. However, the mechanisms by which CAA

Three strongly coupled sequences have been established in Te-110,Te-112 up to high spins. They are interpreted in terms of deformed structures built on proton 1-particle-1-hole excitations that reach termination at I similar to 40h. This is the first observation of smooth terminating dipole structures in this mass region. Lifetime measurements have allowed the extraction of experimental B(M 1; 1 -
