PURPOSE: We investigated the prevalence and types of lower urinary tract dysfunction in children with vesicoureteral reflux grades III and IV, and related improved dilating reflux, renal damage and recurrent urinary tract infection to dysfunction. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 203 children between ages 1 to less than 2 years with reflux grades III and IV were recruited into this open, randomiz
This article deals with pseudo-feminist and pseudo gay friendly rhetorics of the European - and specifically Scandinavian - right wing parties. The point of departure for the discussion in this article is Judith Butler's book Frames of War (2009) that problematizes the misuse of feminist and gay friendly rhetorics of the European right wing populist and xenophobic parties.
This study evaluated the effects of a combined imaging protocol using low-frequency pulsed fluoroscopy, fusion imaging, and low-concentration iodine contrast for endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) of aortic aneurysms of varying complexity.
Introduction. We present a prototype collaboratory, a socio-technical platform to support sharing research data collection instruments in library and information science. No previous collaboratory has attempted to facilitate sharing digital research data collection instruments among library and information science researchers. Method. We have taken a socio-technical approach to design, which inclu
OBJECTIVE: There is great need of biomarkers for research and clinical purposes in COPD. This study explored the relationships between ten putative plasma biomarkers of COPD and physiological measures of reduced lung function. METHODS: FEV(1), FVC, residual volume/total lung capacity (RV/TLC) and CO diffusion capacity (D(L)CO) were assessed in 357 subjects from the Swedish Twin Registry. The l
Popular Abstract in Swedish ``Att fela ör mönskligt...'' är början på en sentens som antyder att det krävs någit ytöver det mänskliga för att korrigera fel; sanningen är att det är lika naturligt för människan at korrigera fel som det är att fela, vilket belyses i detta stycke. Trots ett flertal skrivfel är innebörden av texten entydig. Detta beror naturligtvis på att meningsfull svensk text svaraModern communication systems strive to achieve reliable and efficient information transmission and storage with affordable complexity. Hence, efficient low-complexity channel codes providing low probabilities for erroneous receptions are needed. Interpreting codes as graphs and graphs as codes opens new perspectives for constructing such channel codes. Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are one
Background: Clinically validated guidelines for the management of head injury in children do not exist, and the treatment is often based upon adult management routines. In order to examine the safety of this procedure, an analysis of clinical factors associated with complications after pediatric head injury was attempted. Method: We performed a descriptive retrospective study, including patients w
Non-compliance with food record submission can induce bias in nutritional epidemiological analysis and make it difficult to draw inference from study findings. We examined the impact of demographic, lifestyle and psychosocial factors on such non-compliance during the first 3 years of participation in a multidisciplinary prospective paediatric study.
ABSTRACT: Presence of a cervical rib in children is extremely rare, particularly when symptoms of compression of the lower trunk of the brachial plexus occur. We present two cases with such a condition, where two young girls, 11 and 16 years of age were treated by resection of the cervical rib after a supraclavicular exploration of the lower trunk of the brachial plexus. The procedure led to succe
Den omtalade globaliseringen förknippas inte bara med snabba finansiella rörelser utan också med ökat antal möten mellan etniska och nationella grupper. Beskrivningen av en sådan ökad kommunikation är ett stående inslag i såväl debatt (Martin & Schumann 1997) som samhällsvetenskaplig teoridiskussion (Bauman 1998, Beck 1998). Samtidigt anses det etniska identitetsbegreppet ha försvagats eller f
Since Abney (1987), generative syntax has invested much interest in the structure of the Noun Phrase, producing numerous theoretical as well as descriptive studies. Within the field of Scandinavian Noun Phrase studies, Delsing (1993) was a groundbreaking work that has since been followed up by several important studies, including Vangsnes et al. (2003) and Julien (2005). This field of inquiry is e
The stepwise commitment from hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow to T lymphocyte-restricted progenitors in the thymus represents a paradigm for understanding the requirement for distinct extrinsic cues during different stages of lineage restriction from multipotent to lineage-restricted progenitors. However, the commitment stage at which progenitors migrate from the bone marrow to the thym
