Introduction: Equity in access to and utilization of health services is a common goal of policy-makers in most countries. The current study aimed to evaluate the distribution of need and access to health care services among Iran's rural population between 2006 and 2009. Methods: Census data on population's characteristics in each province were obtained from the Statistical Centre of Iran and Natio
Abstract in Danish Som regel forstår vi demokrati og diktatur som to adskilte regeringsformer. Faktisk er de sammenflettede grundet undtagelsestilstanden og dens uundgåelighed i den politiske forfatning. Denne indrømmelse befrier os fra normativ forudindtagethed om det politiske og leder os til den hypotese at hvis vi studerer det politiske hinsides ideologiske spilfægterier og narrative konstruktNormally, we understand democracy and dictatorship as two separate forms of government. Actually, they are intertwined due to the state of exception and its inevitability for the political constitution. This concession frees of normative pre-conceptions of the political and leads us to the hypothesis that if we study the political beyond ideological skirmishes and narrative constructions we can co
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Barsebäcksmossen, som är belägen vid kusten i sydvästra Skåne, är i dag en kärrmark, men den har tidigare varit en brackvattenlagun av Littorina-havet (ett tidigare stadium i Östersjöns utveckling, som kännetecknas av en betydlig högre salthalt än i nutid). Jag har studerat Barebäcksmossens utveckling genom att analysera pollen, frukter och frön, samt skal av The past Littorina lagoon at Barsebäck, SW Skåne, has earlier been studied by Nilsson (1935) and Digerfeldt (1972, 1975). The objective of the present study was to find complementary sedimentary evidence of the minor transgressions and regressions during the lagoon development, which were reconstructed by Digerfeldt (1975). The study was based on pollen and macrofossil analyses of some sediment c
ImportanceGuidelines for temperature control following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) are based on trials with end points of 180 days or fewer.ObjectivesTo investigate if targeted hypothermia, compared with targeted normothermia with early treatment of fever, affects functional outcome focusing on societal participation or cognitive functioning at 24 months in initially comatose OHCA surviv
Background: Mapping social and geographical disparities in health outcomes helps to identify vulnerable groups that should be targeted for intervention. This study aims to assess the disparities in cardiometabolic multimorbidity, the presence of at least two cardiometabolic diseases (CMD), including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke, among middle-aged adults across socio-geographical inte
BACKGROUND: The isolation of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from the bloodstream can be used to detect and analyze somatic alterations in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), and multiple cfDNA-targeted sequencing panels are now commercially available for Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved biomarker indications to guide treatment. More recently, cfDNA fragmentation patterns have emerged as a tool to inf
IntroductionConsidering that on average in developed countries we spend about 65% of our time in private homes, understanding the exposures in homes is of outmost importance. Aerosol concentrations indoors come from indoor sources, infiltrate from outdoors and can be formed from precursors both of indoor and outdoor origin. Several characteristics and processes influence the properties of aerosols
The effects of inhaled 1,1,1-trichloroethane (3500, 6000, and 7800 ppm) on behavior, local cerebral blood flow, and local cerebral glucose consumption were studied in awake rats. The effect of the solvent inhalation on the EEG pattern and local cerebral blood flow was also studied in paralyzed animals under N2O analgesia. Exposure of awake animals to 6000 ppm 1,1,1-trichloroethane induced a decrea
Purpose: Endwall film cooling protects vane endwall by coolant coverage, especially at the leading edge (LE) region and vane-pressure side (PS) junction region. Strong flow impingement and complex vortexaa structures on the vane endwall cause difficulties for coolant flows to cover properly. This work aims at a full-scale arrangement of film cooling holes on the endwall which improves coolant effi
This study explores the relative interest in various mental-health topics among adolescents. The results of this study will be used to develop relevant information material for the age-group and for interested mental-health practitioners as well as teachers. The participating adolescents were between 13-19 (N = 2058) recruited through social media. In the sample 922 participants attended lower sec

Background: Various factors modulate circulating testosterone in men, affecting interpretation of testosterone measurements. Purpose: To clarify factors associated with variations in sex hormone concentrations. Data Sources: Systematic literature searches (to July 2019). Study Selection: Prospective cohort studies of community-dwelling men with total testosterone measured using mass spectrometry.
BACKGROUND: The prevalence of teenage pregnancy in Colombia is higher than the worldwide average. The identification of socio-geographical disparities might help to prioritize public health interventions.AIM: To describe variation in the probability of teenage maternity across geopolitical departments and socio-geographical intersectional strata in Colombia.METHODS: A cross-sectional study based o
Denna uppsats undersöker hur processens ram fastställs vid avtalstolkning i dispositiva tvistemål. Syftet är att klargöra vilka delar av en avtalstolkning som domstolen ansvarar för att utreda och vilka delar som är beroende av parternas dispositioner. Uppsatsen bygger på en rättsdogmatisk metod för att utröna den gällande rätten och svaren på uppsatsens frågeställningar. Uppsatsen besvarar följanThis thesis examines how the scope of the procedure is determined in a case concerning contract interpretation within civil disputes capable of settlement. The purpose is to clarify which aspects of contract interpretation fall under the court's responsibility to investigate and which aspects depend on the parties' disposition. The thesis adopts a legal dogmatic method to determine the ans
UBER is a worldwide company growing rapidly. It has invented an application that makes it possible to request a ride from a driver which drives their own car. According to UBER, it is not a transport company but instead a technology platform. Moreover, this new phenomenon, whereby companies are enabling access for consumers to property owned by other consumers, is called sharing economy. In order
