The purpose of this study was to describe changes in smoking behaviour and exposure to passive smoking among hospital employees at a large Danish University Hospital (Bispebjerg Hospital) from 1992 until 1999 as part of a program toward a smoke-free hospital. The study was based upon three cross-sectional self-administered questionnaires surveys carried out among all employees at the hospital - ap

Purpose: To assess the association between cystatin C-derived estimates of kidney function and mortality and acute kidney injury (AKI) in sepsis. Materials and methods: Post-hoc analysis of sepsis patients in the FINNAKI-cohort (n = 802). Primary outcome was 90-day mortality. We measured plasma cystatin C and creatinine at intensive care unit (ICU) admission and estimated glomerular filtration rat

The coherent generation of synchrotron radiation by an electron storage ring is predicted for wavelengths equal to or longer than the electron bunch length. With typical bunch lengths of approximately 1 cm, diffraction and chamber- screening effects have so-far blocked observation of coherent radiation from a conventional radiation beam line. In the low-energy, second-generation light source MAX-I
BACKGROUND: Noroviruses are the major cause of viral gastroenteritis. Disease transmission is difficult to prevent and outbreaks in healthcare facilities commonly occur. Contact with infected persons and contaminated environments are believed to be the main routes of transmission. However, noroviruses have recently been found in aerosols and airborne transmission has been suggested. The aim of our
Objective: Inflammation is associated with major depressive disorder (MDD) and suicidal behavior. According to the ‘leaky gut hypothesis’, increased intestinal permeability may contribute to this relationship via bacterial translocation across enterocytes. We measured plasma levels of gut permeability markers, in patients with a recent suicide attempt (rSA), MDD subjects with no history of a suici

This article explores the holistic approach to Leo Hurwitz's documentary aesthetic, by looking at how "Dialogue with a Woman Departed" (1981) interweaves the portrait of an individual with the contemporary history of the American nation and with the cyclical processes of nature.
Att en specifik utvärderingsforskning knappast existerade i Sverige före mitten av 1970-talet beror bl a på att socialpolitiska reformer normalt föregåtts av en planerings- och beslutsprocess som inneburit omfattande politisk kontrol och värdering, såväl före som under själva genomförandet. Förändringarna inom offentlig sektor, där det tidligare planeringstänkandet ersatts av en mål- och resultats
Environmental problems and technical systems in the society are fundamentally related to hydrology. Hydrology is a very comprehensive concept. In fact, there are at least ten independent disciplines within hydrology. Classical hydrology is a descriptive science with the water balance equation as almost the only means of quantifying computations. Hydrodynamics have now to some extent been introduce
The main objective of the paper is to briefly describe and exemplify some of the work that has been carried out within the STAMP project at IEA at Lund Institute of Technology within the field of mathematical modeling of wastewater treatment (WWT) processes. Three main areas have been identified - reduced-order models of the activated sludge process, modelling of biofilm processes including some e
