Acute abdominal pain; prehospital evaluation of Ketobemidone administration

ABSTRACT Abdominal pain is a frequent condition among patients in ambulance care and, each patient should receive optimal doses for pain relief. The aim of this study was to evaluate pain scores at admission to hospital and relationship to age, in pre-hospital patients with treated acute abdominal pain. Pain was scored with a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) by each patient at the rescue scene (NRSs). K

Did Carl Johnson emigrate to America or not? : A reexamination of the sources of the swedish emigration to America and their usage in swedish historical research

As an historian studying the Swedish migration to America, I often come across the notion that the Swedish sources on the subject are excellent and that we who studies swedish migration are fortunate because of this. It is generally thought that 1.2 million swedes emigrated to America and that about 200.000 people returned to Sweden, but is this true? In my ongoing study of the return migration

Current issues in pictorial semiotics. Lecture four: On Semiotic Ecology. Indexicality and Structure in Pictures and the Perceptual World

The argument of our third lecture showed that iconicity could only be saved from the critical arguments advanced by Bierman and Goodman by means of introducing a properly structured common sense world. In this lecture, we will first consider to what extent the linguistic model may still be helpful, and in which respects it is misleading. Then the necessary furnishing of the common sense world, whi

An Experiment of Integrated Technologies in Digital Archaeology : Creation of New Pipelines to Increase the Perception of Archaeological Data

Abstract Digital visualization has gone through a revolutionary decade. Compared to other fields where these methods have been applied, archaeology has been, and still is, more resistant to integrating tools and instruments able to describe materials and scenarios with high resolution. This is partly due to the archaeological misconception of high cost of scientific equipment and the complexity in

Mechanisms of acidosis-mediated ischemic brain damage: Histopathology and pathophysiology

Exaggerated acidosis due to preischemic hyperglycemia shortens the maturation time for cell death and turns selective neuronal damage into pannecrosis. Some issues concerning the mechanisms are yet to be clarified. The present study was designed to define critical thresholds of plasma glucose, to investigate the influence of preischemic hyperglycemia on ion transients, to evaluate the role of calc
