BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Riks-Stroke, the Swedish Stroke Register, was used to explore patient characteristics and stroke services as determinants of patient dissatisfaction with acute in-hospital care. METHODS: All 79 hospitals in Sweden admitting acute stroke patients participate in Riks-Stroke. During 2001 to 2007, 104 876 patients (87% of survivors) responded to a follow-up questionnaire 3 mont

BACKGROUND: Primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is associated with decreased bone density and increased fracture risk. A significant number of pHPT patients have low calcium intake and suffer from vitamin deficiency. Thus, we adopted a policy of postoperative supplements with calcium and vitamin D after parathyroid surgery. In this study, we investigated if this policy enhanced the postoperative in
BACKGROUND: Thylakoid-stabilised emulsions have been reported to possess satiety-promoting effects and inhibit pancreatic lipase-colipase activity in vitro, which prompted the investigation of their interfacial properties.RESULTS: Thylakoid membranes isolated from spinach were used as an emulsifier/stabiliser in oil (triglyceride)-in-water emulsions. Emulsions were characterised with respect to dr

A digital filter for intermediate frequency filtering in mobile communication systems is presented. The purpose of the work is to show an alternative to the analog filters which are used in most of today's heterodyne receivers. Bit-serial arithmetic is applied on a twelfth-order wave digital lattice filter algorithm. The paper also shows a method for retiming such algorithms. The power consumption
BACKGROUND: Androgen insensitivity is caused by mutations in the androgen receptor gene, and is a common etiological factor to ambiguous genitalia in the newborn. This article discusses the role of androgens in sex differentiation, the structure and function of the androgen receptor, the genetic background to androgen insensitivity as well as clinical aspects. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The article is
INTRODUCTION: Thyrotoxicosis is often considered to be the most difficult thyroid operation because of the high vascularisation and the risk of bleeding. The conventional haemostatic technique in thyroidectomy today include knot tying and electrocoagulation. The introduction of the harmonic scalpel (HS) has led to further research if the use of the HS has any benefits in thyroid surgery. To our kn
