Close reading of Ingmar Bergman's last film, Saraband (2003).

Objective: Varying degrees of inter-organizational collaboration concerning children at risk has grown rapidly since the 1980s. Collaboration is understood to provide a more holistic view of the child’s needs, lead to better care and treatment, more efficient law enforcement as well as increase knowledge in general. The aim of this presentation is to explore processes and effects, by highlighting

Recent robust stability analysis results for linear time-varying feedback interconnections are based on a time-varying generalisation of the nu-gap metric. The causality of closed-loop mappings is dealt with explicitly, rather than via well-posedness assumptions as is common in the literature. Here, an alternative time-varying gap metric is defined. It is shown that this gives rise to correspondin

Using a system analysis approach compares different systems for handling and treatment of toilet waste and organic household waste. Design issues considered are source separation of urine, use of vacuum toilets and advanced nutrient recovery processes such as Reverse Osmosis (RO). All of the studied systems have low emissions of eutrophy ing compounds. Other environmental effects are mainly relate

Objective: Compare perioperative course and long-term mortality after liver resection for colorectal cancer (CRC) metastases between patients who had preoperative treatment with portal vein embolization (PVE) and chemotherapy or chemotherapy alone. Methods: Among patients undergoing liver resection for CRC metastases following preoperative chemotherapy treatment, 17 patients who had received pre

Controlled resistive loads can contribute to damping of electro-mechanical oscillations. This paper presents an on-off damping controller for a single machine system. It was used at a field test in Southern Sweden to damp oscillations of a 0.9 MW hydro power generator. The controller used estimated machine frequency as input and controlled a 20 kW resistive load via thyristor switches. The field m

INTRODUCTION: As more patients survive coronary events, the prevalence of patients with refractory angina pectoris is increasing. The aim was to evaluate the effects of enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) and spinal cord stimulation (SCS) and compare with optimal medically treated patients with refractory angina. METHODS: 153 patients with refractory angina were treated with either EECP, SCS

Experimental oscillator strengths for 19 ultraviolet lines of Pd II have been derived from measurements of line intensities in calibrated Fourier transform spectra, combined with picosecond-pulse laser measurements of radiative lifetimes. Five of these 19 lines, in addition to other Pd nr lines, are present in Hubble Space Telescope/Goddard High-Resolution Spectrograph echelle spectra of the chemi

Observational studies show an association between ferritin and type 2 diabetes (T2D), suggesting a role of high iron stores in T2D development. However, ferritin is influenced by factors other than iron stores, which is less the case for other biomarkers of iron metabolism. We investigate associations of ferritin, transferrin saturation (TSAT), serum iron, and transferrin with T2D incidence to cla
