Objectives: As mortality of septic shock decreases, new therapies focus on improving short-term organ dysfunction. However, it is not known whether short-term organ dysfunction is associated with long-term mortality of septic shock. Design: Retrospective single-center. Setting: Mixed medical-surgical ICU. Patients: One thousand three hundred and thirty-one patients with septic shock were included
Objective: Compare caregiver burden, provision of informal care, participation in everyday occupations and life satisfaction of caregivers to people with stroke, who either had received a client-centred, activities of daily living intervention or usual activities of daily living interventions. Design: A multicentre cluster randomized controlled trial in which 16 rehabilitation units were randomly
Panel 20 - Collaboration in New Configurations: Ethnologists’ Teaching and Research in Multidisciplinary SettingsIn this presentation I would like to talk about the feelings that multidisciplinary work may evoke. When an ethnologist leaves the mothership, the department of Ethnology, and seeks new ways, a feeling of homesickness is likely to emerge, notwithstanding the free choice. In a new interd
“Across all borders”: An investigation into media activities and the Scandinavian Media Model in 1959In this case study we are going to investigate two different radio productions that in interesting ways were crossing the geographical borders between the countries Sweden and Norway and between Sweden and Denmark in the year of 1959. Through the concepts of border (see Hurd et al. 2006) showing ho
Media scandals is one of the areas within the media field with high passion potential. The emotions within politics, that otherwise may be covered by rational arguments and cultural codes, are often in full bloom when a scandal takes place on the political scene (which as we know is a mediated scene). However, after a few decades of media scandal-research, a scientific convention seems to have ari
In the modern age of mediated visibility, media scandal is an immense risk that threatens to destroy the lives of people who have become the focus of public attention. The paper is concerned with the question of how the individual is affected by the attention when the media hype a story. Empirically, it is based upon in-depth interviews with Swedish persons who have been in the epicenter of scanda
Propagators and defenders of privatisation processes in education often resort to the ideas of ‘competition’, ‘freedom’ and ‘choice’ to argue for the alleged advantages of privatisation in education. My lecture will (i) look at how market forces and non-state actors are legitimised in the field of education; (ii) illuminate how consumption practices can reinforce individual experiences of, and des
Despite having been subject to a strong and many-sided critique, instrumental rationality persists as paramount in transport planning practice and research. This paper argues that it is crucial to acknowledge the prescriptive and normative facet of instrumental rationality in order to understand its impact on transport planning. The aim is to explore to what extent pedestrian planning – within a s
Poly(arylene ether sulfone)s containing randomly distributed biphenyl units tethered with precisely six imidazolium cations are designed and prepared with the aim to facilitate ionic clustering and conductivity of anion exchange membranes (AEMs). A series of statistical copolymers with different cationic contents are synthesized via K2CO3-mediated polycondensations of 2,2′,3,3′,5,5′-hexamethyl-4,4
Abstract in French:Cet article propose une synthèse des résultats d'un projet de recherches sur le développement du français par des enfants L2 (L1 suédois) dont l'âge de début d'acquisition (ÂdA) varie entre 3;5 ans et 6;5 ans. Nous résumons les résultats principaux sur différentes structures grammaticales, notamment la finitude, les objets clitiques, le genre, l'accord sujet-verbe et les formes
Ethnic minorities have particular needs and difficulties in terms of support for meaningful occupations, lack of access to and use of occupation-based rehabilitation services. They are not established in the labour market and are seldom in paid employment. This study aimed to investigate how mentally ill ethnic minority clients experience, feel and think about participation in occupation-based reh
Objective: Although many studies have dealt with adverse effects (AEs) and quality of life (QoL) in prostate cancer (PCa) patients, the quantification of the patients’ perspective on AE-related reduction in QoL has been less studied. This study describes the impact of self-reported local (erectile, bowel, urinary dysfunction) or systemic (mental distress, fatigue, virility loss) AEs on QoL reducti
