Mortality and causes of death in a Swedish series of systemic sclerosis patients

OBJECTIVES: To analyse survival rates and the causes of death in a systemic sclerosis (SSc) population, and to evaluate the occurrence of fatal malignant neoplasms and their possible association with oral cyclophosphamide (CYC) treatment. METHODS: Survival was calculated for 249 SSc patients followed up for up to 13 years. Mean (SD) follow up was 5.8 (4.2) years. The 49 decreased patients were sub

Environmental and biological monitoring of antineoplastic drugs in four workplaces in a Swedish hospital.

OBJECTIVES: Exposure to antineoplastic drugs should be avoided due to the risk of getting adverse health effects. Antineoplastic drugs such as cyclophosphamide (CP) and ifosfamide (IF) are commonly used in medical attendance. In this study the variability of surface contamination of CP and IF was investigated by repeated wipe sampling over time in four workplaces in a university hospital. The surf

von Langenbeck procedures at 8 months or Wardill at 18 months for primary repair of cleft palate in adult Swedish patients with unilateral complete cleft lip and palate: A study of facial growth.

The purpose of this study was to compare facial growth in patients with unilateral complete cleft lip and palate (UCLP) in whom the palate was repaired with the von Langenbeck procedure at 8 months (L-8), or the Wardill procedure at 18 months (W-18). A total of 151 unaffected subjects were used as a reference series. Sixty-one adult patients, 34 in the L-8 group and 27 in the W-18 group, were inve

Moisture Transport in Concrete Structures in Swedish Hydro Power Plants

Concrete structures in hydro power plants exposed to harsh environment, such as non-frozen freshwater and long cold winters with freezing temperatures, are always in the danger-zone for suffering from concrete damages. Some existing concrete structures already suffer from different damages caused by high water content. The conditions regarding concrete quality, air entrainment, temperature and tim
