Topiramate is biochemically classified as a fructopyranose sulphamate. Discovered as early as 1979, during middle 1980's it was approved in many countries for the treatment of epilepsies and migraine prevention. More recently, in the experimental stage, possible new indications have been disclosed: treatment of obesity, bipolar disorder, also cessation of smoking, neuropathic pain, cerebral pseudo
The aim of this Master's thesis is to discuss and analyse co-operation between public and academic libraries. The political changes that were initiated during 2004 have come to alter the conditions for Swedish libraries. The Swedish library law was changed at the 1st of January 2005 and co-operation between libraries is now statuary even if there is no description of how the new mission is to
Sports-related concussions (SRCs) typically occur when the brain is hyperthermic. Acute head-and-neck cooling should, therefore, reduce the brain's metabolic demands, with the potential to improve recovery following an SRC. Elite ice hockey players who underwent head-and-neck cooling after sustaining a concussion (SRC) showed reduced return-to-play times, although further investigation is warrante
INTRODUCTION: Intracranial haemorrhage (ICH) is the most serious complication in infants and children with severe congenital bleeding disorders causing substantial mortality and long-term neurological morbidity. The neonatal period carries the highest risk, particularly in severe haemophilia and rare factor deficiencies. We review the epidemiology, risk factors, prevention, recognition, management
Background Severe exacerbations (SevEx), the typical endpoint when evaluating asthma therapies, may provide incomplete assessment, as it relies on patient perception of disease and physician action. CompEx, a composite outcome that includes SevEx and acute worsening events (AWEs) (evaluated from e-diary entries using deterioration in peak expiratory flow (PEF), reliever medication use and worsenin

Background and purpose: Patients with focal cartilage lesions experience functional impairment. Results for biological treatments in the middle-aged patient is poor. Previous studies with focal prosthetic inlay resurfacing have shown a higher risk of conversion to total knee replacement at mid-term follow-up. A novel customized implant (Episealer, Episurf, Stockholm, Sweden) has been proposed to i
A paradigm shift is emerging in higher education especially regarding how universities should address personalized and collaborative mobile learning. Experiences from three international benchmarking-projects through the European Association of Distance teaching Universities (EADTU), the European Centre for Strategic Management of Universities (ESMU) and the First dual mode benchmarking club on qu
The modern consumers live in a transparent world with unlimited information and consumers adopt information strategies around who they trust and this is based on their values and experiences of food. Consumer question the information provided by the authorities and seek other sources of information such as the Internet and fellow consumers. There is a need for this consumer perspective in value ch
Objectives: To assess the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of patients with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) and their caregivers and to quantify the disease-related costs from a societal perspective. Methods: In the context of a multi-country study of rare diseases (BURQOL-RD project), a cross-sectional survey was performed among MPS patients in seven European countries. Data on demographic char
Background: The ability to adapt and habituate based on prior experiences is important for human movement control, fall prevention and for the ability to enhance performance during various human activities. However, little is known about the ability for the elderly to adapt to balance perturbations in the lateral direction. Objective: To determine whether adaptation, i.e., the ability to adjust po
EC competition policy has different objectives, for instance to create the single market and keep it open and competitive. Article 81 EC provides an effective instrument in order to ensure that competition is not distorted. Article 81 EC catches and prohibits anti-competitive agreements, decisions and concerted practices but where the positive effects of an agreement outweigh the negative effects
As society becomes more ecologically conscious there is a push toward the use of materials with a smaller environmental burden, one of these materials is glulam (GLT), which has gained a lot of traction in recent years not only for ecological reasons but for its ease in manufacture, transport, noise dampening, etc. The focus of this project was to evaluate the influence of different joint configu
Dangdut as the most popular music in Indonesia is highly sexualized on its representation of women despite the fact that Indonesia is a religious country. Dangdut’s sexualization is prominent on its performance, lyrics and culture. Banality, is the face of dangdut. During its public shows, many of the male audiences are more often than not intoxicated and engage in physical fights. Yet to date, th
Technological and policy solutions for transitioning to a fossil-free society exist, many countries could afford the transition, and rational arguments for rapid climate action abound. Yet effective action is still lacking. Dominant policy approaches have failed to generate action at anywhere near the rate, scale or depth needed to avoid potentially catastrophic futures. This is despite 30 years o
Smallholder farming, which is largely rainfed and relies on mostly rudimentary tools, predominates Ghana’s agricultural sector. The sector’s importance to the national economy is exemplified in not only the proportion of the active national labour force engaged in it but also in terms of its export earnings and service as a source of food for the vast majority of the population. However, the secto
ObjectiveThe proportion of older people is increasing and reflects in the demand on ambulance services (AS). Patients can be more vulnerable and increasingly dependent, especially when their decision-making ability is impaired. Self-determination in older people has a positive relation to quality of life and can raise ethical conflicts in AS. Hence, the aim of this study was to empirically explore
The skate Leucoraja erinacea has an elaborately shaped pupil, whose characteristics and functions have received little attention. The goal of our study was to investigate the pupil response in relation to natural ambient light intensities. First, we took a recently developed sensory-ecological approach, which gave us a tool for creating a controlled light environment for behavioural work: During a
