The safety and pharmacokinetics of carbetocin, a long-acting oxytocin analogue, were studied in 25 healthy nonpregnant women. The distribution and elimination half-lives of a 0.4-mg intravenous dose were found to be 5.5 ± 1.6 minutes and 41 ± 11.9 minutes, respectively. Similarly, the half-lives of a 0.8-mg intravenous dose were found to be 6.1 ± 1.2 minutes and 42.7 ± 10.6 minutes. Approximately

Vid biblioteken i Burlöv och Ängelholm har tidigare bedrivits projekt att främja folkbibliotekens utveckling mot kulturhus (Kulturnämnden 2012). Arbetet med projekten, Kulturhusprojektet i Arlöv och Kulturstråket i Ängelholm, följdes i en studie av författaren och har rapporterats tidi-gare (Rivano Eckerdal 2013). Föreliggande rapport är resultatet av en uppföljande studie som be-dri¬vits under år

This paper is based on the keynote talk that I gave on the EAHIL+ICAHIS+ICLC 2015 Workshop in Edinburgh. A starting point for the talk was the theme for the Workshop: “Research-minded: supporting, understanding, conducting research”. Some features of qualitative research are presented and a number of methods are mentioned before zooming in on interviewing, discussing some aspects of that method wiThis paper is based on the keynote talk that I gave on the EAHIL+ICAHIS+ICLC 2015 Workshop in Edinburgh.

Heat transfer in gas turbine related applications is investigated by steady state liquid crystal thermography (LCT) in this thesis. The work presented includes outlet guide vane heat transfer and gas turbine internal cooling.The heat transfer on the outlet guide vane (OGV) surface and its endwall region is investigated experimentally in a linear cascade test facility. The inlet flow angle is varie

PURPOSE: The purpose of this work was to develop a new family of test algorithms for computerized static threshold perimetry which significantly reduces test time without any reduction of data quality.METHODS: A comprehensive visual field model constructed from available knowledge of normal and glaucomatous visual fields is continuously updated during testing. The model produces threshold estimate

BACKGROUND: High reproducibility of test measurements is often considered an indication of high reliability of test results. The aim of the current study was to analyse the role of the traditional perimetric reliability indices, False Negative and False Positive responses, and Fixation Losses, as indicators of test reliability in comparison with threshold reproducibility in patients with suspect o

Objective: To acquire a deepened understanding of how stigma in healthcare affects health seeking behaviours of same-sex practising men in Tanzania. Methods: In-depth interviews with twelve men were conducted in Dar es Salaam, 2012. Data were interpreted through qualitative content analysis. Results: Narratives revealed that men’s healthcare perceptions were shaped by previous encounters, rumours

Anaerobic digestion (AD) has gained increasing attention nowadays as an approach for both waste treatment and renewable energy generation. Currently, many different types of materials can be used as feedstock for biogas production via AD process, but their biodegradability (based on methane yield, BDCH4) and potential to produce biogas might vary significantly, and these properties are key paramet

I Emmaboda går det bra för bosnierna, bättre än i någon av Sveriges storstäder. Bosniernas yrkeserfarenhet har passat väl in i tillverkningsindustrin och i den lilla kommunen är kontakterna täta mellan arbetsförmedling och näringsliv.

Somalierna är en grupp i Sverige som redan från början betraktades som ”svårintegrerade”. Sådana epitet blir ofta självuppfyllande. I USA däremot har de rykte om sig att vara hårt arbetande, målmedvetna, djärva och flexibla.

Ett fiskbestånd syftar på en grupp artfränder som uppehåller sig inom ett avgränsat område och som huvudsakligen parar sig sinsemellan, vilket medför att de genetiska likheterna är större inom ett bestånd än mellan separata bestånd. Denna beskrivning stämmer väl in på sjölevande fiskarter, där fisk sällan kan röra sig mellan sjöar, vilket alltså leder till genetiska skillnader mellan bestånd i oliPrudent management of marine fish resources relies on separation and management of biologically meaningful groups of conspecifics, termed fishery stocks, often depicted as self-sustaining, spatiotemporally separated and demographically independent entities. Such stock discrimination has however proven challenging. Although most marine fish species form local spawning populations (in relation to hy

Background: Research from sub-Saharan Africa has shown that persons with same-sex sexuality experience are at elevated risk for ill health due to sexual risk taking, stigma, and discrimination. However, studies of healthcare seeking among young people in this region with same-sex sexuality experience are limited.Objective: To identify determinants of unmet healthcare and sexual health counselling Background: Research from sub-Saharan Africa has shown that persons with same-sex sexuality experience are at elevated risk for ill health due to sexual risk taking, stigma, and discrimination.

Open Innovation (OI) has attracted scholarly interest from a wide range of disciplines since introduced by Chesbrough, i.e. ”a paradigm that assumes that firms can and should use external ideas as well as internal ideas, and internal and external paths to market, as they look to advance their technology”. However, OI remains unexplored for software engineering (SE), although widespread in practice
