All 74 patients treated with vena cava filter insertion during 1991-2000 at Malmo University Hospital were reviewed. Thirty-nine patients (53%) died during follow-up. Indications for permanent filter insertion (n = 63, age 25-89 years, 35 men) were contraindication for or side effects of anticoagulant treatment, or pulmonary embolism during anticoagulant treatment. Temporary vena cava filters (n =

The crypt in Dalby as a batisterium – a digital reconstruction The article presents an example of the on-going research at Dalby in Scania, Sweden, focusing on the baptismal font and its original medieval context. The site and the current research are presented. Dalby was a medieval cathedral, Augustinian monastery and maybe also a royal manor. The crypt and font from the 12th C are presented. Th

Continuing on the topic presented in the last number of Ancient Planet Online (2012/2), which introduced the topic of pseudo script in the ancient quarries at Gebel el Silsila in Egypt, this article will look closer at one group of quarry marks and their symbolic association with solar religion during the Ptolemaic and early Roman periods.

The percentage blood volume occupied by red blood cells is known as haematocrit. While it is straightforward to measure haematocrit in large arteries, it is very challenging to do it in microvasculature (cerebral haematocrit). Currently, this can only be done using invasive methods (e.g. PET), but their use is very limited. Local variations in cerebral haematocrit have been reported in various bra

A Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is used to improve the robustness to noise when tracking the atrial fibrillation (AF) frequency in the ECG. Each frequency interval corresponds to a state in the HMM. Following QRST cancellation, a sequence of observed states is obtained from the residual ECG, using the short time Fourier transform. Based on the observed state sequence, the Viterbi algorithm, which uses

In this study, we analysed the ease of use of three computer programs for self-registration of job seekers. The programs were developed in somewhat different activity contexts. The differences found between the programs in two experiments appeared to result from a combination of fewer constraints on individual input demanded by Job Seeker Bank and Af Explore and from the programs’ better adaptatio

Ground-plot and property in Tønsberg (Norway): A study in the urban settlement and ground-plot pattern of Medieval Tønsberg - part 3 of a research project on the Northern part of the Medieval Town. The main site of the study is Baglergatan 2, excavated in 1981-82. The development of a border system of the Medieval ground-plots is discussed in the light of archaeological sources from the whole town

The incidence of deep infection using a synthetic mesh in inguinal hernia repair is low and reported to be well below 1%. This is in contrast to incisional hernia surgery where the reported incidence is 3% respective 13% comparing laparoscopic to open mesh repair reported in a Cochrane review. Main risk factors were long operation time, surgical site contamination, and early wound complications. A

Efficient bit-serial realisations for maximum and minimum filters are presented. The proposed circuits are simple and suitable for VLSI implementation. The filters not only give the maximum or minimum values, but also indicate which input is the maximum or minimum in an input vector. A true single phase clock has been used to achieve high speed

ChIP-seq is the method of choice for genome-wide studies of protein-DNA interactions. We describe a new method for ChIP-seq sample preparation, termed lobChIP, where the library reactions are performed on cross-linked ChIP fragments captured on beads.

To be able to connect wirelessly to the internet is nowadays a part of everyday life and the number of wireless devices accessing wireless networks worldwide are increasing rapidly. However, with the increasing number of wireless devices and applications and the amount available bandwidth, spectrum shortage is an issue. A promising way to increase the amount of available spectrum is to utilize fre

Absorption is normally considered as comprising two separate mechanisms, viz. , adsorption and capillary condensation. One part of the water is assumed to be adsorbed, the other part capillary condensed. By means of a small modification to the BET-theory for adsorption, this theory can be made to describe the total absorption as one mechanism, where no difference is made between adsorbed and conde
