The reported prevalence of malnutrition in pediatric hospitals ranges from 15% to 30% of patients, with an impact on growth, morbidity and mortality. Major deficits in nutrition care have been highlighted in European hospitals, and the implementation of nutrition support teams (NSTs) has been suggested as a means to improve malnutrition diagnosis and nutrition care for hospitalized patients. This

Jura novit curia anses innebära att parterna inte kan binda domstolen vid vilken rättsregel som är tillämplig. Och inte heller hur denna rättsregel ska tolkas och tillämpas. Denna princip vållar emellertid vissa problem. Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att utreda om principen om jura novit curias omfattning enligt gällande rätt är välavvägd samt att annars ge förslag på bättre lösningar. PrinciIura novit curia implies that the parties cannot, with binding effect for the court, choose which law should be applied. Nor can they choose how the law should be interpreted or applied. The purpose of this paper was to investigate whether the extent of the principle of iura novit curia in Swedish law is balanced. If not so, the aim is to provide suggestions for a better solution. Iura novit curia

The pseudorapidity density of charged particles, dNch/dη, at midrapidity in Pb-Pb collisions has been measured at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of sNN=5.02 TeV. For the 5% most central collisions, we measure a value of 1943±54. The rise in dNch/dη as a function of sNN is steeper than that observed in proton-proton collisions and follows the trend established by measurements at lower ene

This dissertation deals with memory, recognition and solidarity in the Nowa Huta district of Kraków, Poland. Nowa Huta was founded as an independent, socialist model town in 1949, together with the large Lenin Steel Plant, and was incorporated into Kraków in 1951. In the 1980s the steel plant and district became one of the main centers of the oppositional Solidarity movement in Poland. Situated be

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund Trots att venös blodpropp (venös tromboembolism [VTE]) är en viktig orsak till sjuklighet och dödlighet är data ofullständiga gällande dess förekomst och bakomliggande riskfaktorer hos oselekterade patienter. I begreppet VTE inkluderas blodproppar i benets djupa ådror (djup ventrombos [DVT]) och i lungorna (lungemboli [LE]). Insjuknandefrekvens i VTE varierar mDespite the fact that venous thromboembolism (VTE) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality there is still insufficient information on VTE risk factors and patient characteristics in the general population. Previously published incidences of VTE (deep venous thrombosis [DVT] and pulmonary embolism [PE]) vary from 71 to 192 per 100,000 individuals per year. Incidences of DVT and PE have bee

Popular Abstract in Swedish Detta är en prospektiv longitudinell multicenterstudie som har haft som mål att utvärdera livskvaliteten (HRQL) hos patienter med cancer i huvudhalsregionen, vid diagnos, efter ett och fem år i relateration till tumörlokal, stadium, subsite, behand-ling, kön och ålder. Den första delen av studien, som varade i ett år, bestod av 357 patienter (medelålder 63 år; 72% män)The aim of this prospective longitudinal multicenter study was to evaluate the health-related quality of life (HRQL) in patients with head and neck cancer at diagnosis, after one and five years in relation to tumour location, stage, sub site, treatment modality, gender and age. The first part of the study, lasting for one year, consisted of 357 patients (mean age 63 years; 72% males) that were in

The aim of this study was to evaluate the contribution of a low calcium diet to the cortical and trabecular osteoporosis seen in ovariectomized rats after 7 weeks on a low calcium diet and to investigate the effects of the bisphosphonate clodronate on this development of osteoporosis. Thirty-six mature, female Wistar rats were randomized into four groups: Ovx-B (bisphosphonate) and Ovx-C (control)

Ageing populations and higher ambitions continuously drive healthcare costs in Sweden and worldwide. During the last two decades, downsizing hospital bed capacity has been the strategy for cutting expenditure in the Swedish healthcare system. However, the lack of implementation of new and viable outpatient alternatives has led to a widespread overcrowding problem in Swedish hospitals and emergency

Background: Little is known about how parental gender equality early in their children lives can influence daughters’ decision to use contraceptive pills. Aim:The study aimed at exploring whether maternal working time and paternity leave in Sweden during the first two years of their daughters’ lives is associated with the use of oral contraceptives when they are adolescents or young adults. Materi

This study compared the short-term efficacy of two treatments (local anesthetics (A) and local anesthetics and lavage (AL)) in patients with permanently displaced discs and temporomandibular disorder (TMD) pain. 45 patients participated in the single-blind randomized controlled trial. All patients had received: a Research Diagnostic Criteria/TMD diagnosis of disc displacement without reduction; an

For how many years was a farmer responsible for running a farm in Sweden’s old peasant society’? This is the question that underpins my research into life in Ramkvilla parish in the province of Småland for two hundred years (1623–1819). By conducting a detailed study of farm practice at the individual level, I have been able to analyse a complex theme that touches upon the issues of responsibility

The copper coordination geometry in the blue copper proteins plastocyanin, nitrite reductase, cucumber basic protein, and azurin has been studied by combined density functional (B3LYP) and molecular mechanical methods. Compared to quantum chemical vacuum calculations, a significant improvement of the geometry is seen (toward the experimental structures) not only for the dihedral angles of the liga

BACKGROUND: Triticum aestivum (wheat) is one of the world's oldest crops and has been used for >8000 years as a food crop in North Africa, West Asia and Europe. Today, wheat is one of the most important sources of grain for humans, and is cultivated on greater areas of land than any other crop. As the human population increases and soil salinity becomes more prevalent, there is increased pressure

Tidigare forskning har visat att störda ätbeteenden (disordered eating/DE) är vanligt bland ungdomar, särskilt bland tonårsflickor. DE definieras som olika beteenden (t.ex. kräkningar, restriktivt ätande) och negativa attityder till ätande/kroppsform/utseende/vikt. Avhandlingen hade flera syften. (1) Att validera en svensk version av frågeformuläret RiBED-8 (risk behaviour for eating disorders) soPrevious research has described that disordered eating (DE) is common in adolescents, especially in girls. DE is defined as maladaptive behaviours (e.g., vomiting) and negative attitudes toward eating and one’s body shape, appearance, and weight. The present thesis had several aims. First, to validate a Swedish version of a Danish 8-item screening inventory, Risk Behaviour for Eating Disorders/RiB

The objective of this study was to extract the rapeseed protein from by-products and further examine the effect of lab-made rapeseed protein on the droplet size, microstructure, colour, encapsulation and apparent viscosity of emulsions. Rapeseed protein-stabilised emulsions with an increasing gradient of milk fat or rapeseed oil (10, 20, 30, 40 and 50%, v/v) were fabricated using a high shear rate

Our clinical experience has suggested that the presently recommended patch-test concentration (1.0%) for formaldehyde in the baseline series might be too low. Therefore, consecutively patch-tested dermatitis patients were tested simultaneously with formaldehyde 1.0% and 2.0% (w/v) in aqua. Formaldehyde 1.0% and 2.0% were applied with a micro-pipette (15 microl) to filter paper discs in Finn Chambe
