Background and aim: Home rehabilitation is an increasing service in many countries due to the aging population. The body of knowledge in home rehabilitation is growing but results are inconsistent, and there is still lack of knowledge from user perspectives to guide practice and home rehabilitation programs. The purpose of this study was to explore valuable aspects of home rehabilitation experienc

Diverse and complex interactions as well as multi-actor systems characterise resource use and re- source policy. This makes system analysis a relevant tool to orient resource policy towards the long term. Analysing such complex systems requires systemic thinking, consideration of causal loops as well as time-lags and delays in system responses.In the SimRess project, system analysis encompassed pa

Most patients with anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease present with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis with or without pulmonary haemorrhage; however, there are several variants and vigilance is necessary to make a correct diagnosis. Such variants include overlap with anti-neutrophil cytoplasm antibodies-associated vasculitis and membranous nephropathy as well as anti-GBM occu

Denne artikel undersøger to typer af litterære karakterer, som skabes i Rushy Rashids Et løft af sløret (2000), Özlem Cekic’ Fra Føtex til Folketinget (2009) og Geeti Amiris Glansbilleder (2016). Den første type er den muslimske kvinde som forbillede for kvindekamp, og den anden er patriarken som produceret af, hvad muslimske debattører har kaldt “rygtesamfundet”. Forfatterne fremstiller den såkal

OBJECTIVES: To examine the cost-effectiveness of continued treatment for patients with moderate-severe Crohn's disease in clinical remission, with a combination of anti-tumour necrosis factor alpha [anti-TNFα] [infliximab] and immunomodulator therapy compared with two different withdrawal strategies: [1] withdrawal of the anti-TNFα therapy; and [2] withdrawal of the immunomodulator therapy, respec

We study the notion of anonymous credentials with Publicly Auditable Privacy Revocation (PAPR). PAPR credentials simultaneously provide conditional user privacy and auditable privacy revocation. The first property implies that users keep their identity private when authenticating unless and until an appointed authority requests to revoke this privacy, retroactively. The second property enforces th

In order to reinstate interest and motivation for learning foreign languages (FLs) other than English, the Swedish government has recently reformed the admissions system to higher education. Upper secondary students who continue with the FL learnt in secondary school are rewarded with extra credits that considerably enhance their grade point average (GPA). The purpose of this interview-based study

Lightweight and semi-transparent organic solar cells (ST-OSCs) offer bright promise for applications such as building integrated photovoltaics. Diluting donor content in bulk-heterojunction active layers to allow greater visible light transmittance (AVT) effectively enhances device transparency, yet the ineluctable compromise of the donor-phase continuity is challenging for efficient charge transp

An important element of antibody-guided vaccine design is the use of neutralizing or opsonic monoclonal antibodies to define protective epitopes in their native three-dimensional conformation. Here, we demonstrate a multimodal mass spectrometry-based strategy for in-depth characterization of antigen–antibody complexes to enable the identification of protective epitopes using the cytolytic exotoxin

Bakgrunn.I 2007 kom det anbefalinger om at serumkonsentrasjonen av digitoksin bør ligge i området 8 – 15 nmol/l, noe som er ca. halvparten av det som tidligere var ansett som optimalt, og forslag til nye doseringsrutiner.Materiale og metode.Utviklingen for angitt dosering og serumkonsentrasjoner av digitoksin er undersøkt med utgangspunkt i 13 054 prøver sendt til Avdeling for klinisk farmakologi

Feedback loops are among the core notions in systems thinking – and the various fields of theory and practice that draw on it, including systemic design. We use these notions to develop methodological approaches, conceptualise processes, assess the adequacy of solutions, and anticipate how the design object may interact with its immediate surroundings and beyond. In my presentation, I discuss the

Med utgångspunkt i repertoar med rötter i folkmusik från Iberiska halvön fortsätter Groupa sitt arbete med att skapa helt nya musikaliska uttryck baserade på traditionsmusik. Detta är det fjärde albumet i serien Kind of Folk, här i samarbete med spanska och portugisiska musiker. Medverkar gör slagverksduon Ttukunak Txalaparta, bestående av Maika Gomez och Sara Gomez, sångerskan och slagverkaren Va

OBJECTIVES: To report the long-term safety and efficacy of BAY 81-8973 in the LEOPOLD Kids extension phase.METHODS: Patients received BAY 81-8973 (25-50 IU/kg) at least twice weekly. The primary endpoint was safety, assessed in all patients who entered the extension phase (n = 82). Efficacy endpoints were assessed in patients without high-titre inhibitors/immune tolerance induction (n = 67).RESULT

This thesis is a case study of the energy consumption of similar warehouses in different geographic locations. The purpose is to examine how to reduce the effect of the climate so that other parameters that control energy consumption in warehouse type buildings can be explored. Further the problem is explored with different organization that can come across such a problem. The rapport uses degree

Med ordet ’plast’ avses i vardagligt bruk typiskt helt eller delvis syntetiskt framställda polymerer (långa kedjor av upprepande mindre enheter), ofta tillverkade av ursprungligen fossilt råmaterial. Tack vare det stora omfång av önskvärda egenskaper som plaster generellt besitter, däribland uthållighet mot biologisk och kemisk nedbrytning samt låga produktionskostnader, har plaster blivit allstädThe many advantageous abilities of plastics have made them omnipresent in today’s society. However, the low cost of production, light weight, durability and insolubility in water combined with inadequate waste handling have led to a vast and increasing accumulation of plastics in nature, approximated to be over 6 300 million tons (Geyer, Jambeck and Law, 2017, ‘Production, use, and fate of all pla

This article explores the ideals and motivations behind the increasingly popular physical practice of Crossfit. Through an analysis of data collected through interviews, observation and deep hanging out (and working out) this article attempts to thicken the conventional analysis of lifestyle practices sin late modern capitalism.
