Bra regler men dålig tillämpning – en enkätstudie om pressetik och publicitetsskador

Med en enkätstudie undersöks i detta projekt hur effektivt de berörda anser att de medieetiska systemen ger upprättelse. Här är det värt att nämna att vi då arbetet inleddes bad PO-kansliet om hjälp att distribuera vår enkät till alla dem som stod bakom framgångsrika anmälningar under 2015. På så sätt skulle enkäten kunna genomföras samtidigt som anonymiteten i PO-systemet kunde

Visualization of cell composition and maturation in the bone marrow using 10-color flow cytometry and radar plots

Background: The enormous potential of complex data files generated by 10-color flow cytometry (FC) is hindered by the requirement for exhaustive manual gating and the complexity of multidimensional data visualization. We propose a model using radar plots (RPs), to improve FC data visualization by capturing multidimensionality and integration of FC findings. Method: We analysed 12 normal/reactive b

Taking ownership of gaming and disability

Gaming among young people with disabilities is often understood within a habilitation frame, as if video and computer games primarily should help to exercise and ‘improve’. Little is known about how these games are used within a private frame, and how young people with disabilities operate their gaming as concrete persons rather than as treatment-receiving clients. Through the use of stories, desc

Seasonal variability of stable carbon isotopes (δ13CDIC) in the Skagerrak and the Baltic Sea : Distinguishing between mixing and biological productivity

We documented the annual cycle of the carbon isotopic composition of dissolved inorganic carbon (δ13CDIC) in the water columns of the Skagerrak and Baltic Sea to obtain an increased understanding of the processes involved controlling the carbon isotopic distribution in shelf seas. The lowest δ13CDIC values (-4.9‰) were found in the low-oxygen, brackish Baltic bottom water whereas the highest value

Primary Stenting of the Superficial Femoral Artery in Intermittent Claudication Improves Health Related Quality of Life, ABI and Walking Distance : 12 Month Results of a Controlled Randomised Multicentre Trial

Background: Invasive treatment of intermittent claudication (IC) because of severe atherosclerotic stenosis or occlusion in the superficial femoral artery (SFA) is controversial. This prospective randomised trial was performed to assess the impact on health related quality of life (HRQoL) of primary stenting with nitinol self expanding stents compared with best medical treatment alone in patients

A control theoretical approach to non-intrusive geo-replication for cloud services

Complete data center failures may occur due to disastrous events such as earthquakes or fires. To attain robustness against such failures and reduce the probability of data loss, data must be replicated in another data center sufficiently geographically separated from the original data center. Implementing geo-replication is expensive as every data update operation in the original data center must

Genetic susceptibility to dyslipidemia and incidence of cardiovascular disease depending on a diet quality index in the Malmö diet and cancer cohort

Background: By taking diet quality into account, we may clarify the relationship between genetically elevated triglycerides (TG) and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), and better understand the inconsistent results regarding genetically elevated high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Methods: We included 24,799 participants (62 % women, age 4

Rethinking Athens as Text : The Linguistic Context of Athenian Graffiti during the Crisis

The Athenian graffiti functions as a testament of creativity and artistry occurring during the hard times of socioeconomic and political crisis in Greece the last seven years. The impact of Greece's crisis is unavoidably presented through urban art in downtown Athens. This extensive street art practice on Athenian walls as a linguistic and imagery line is approached in this work via the semiotic a

Outcome After Ruptured AAA Repair in Octo- and Nonagenarians in Sweden 1994-2014

Objective: To report the outcome after ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (rAAA) repair in octo- and nonagenarians from the Swedish Vascular Registry 1994-2014. Material and methods: 2335 intact AAA (iAAA) and 1538 rAAA were identified in patients aged 80 years and older. Crude, long-term, and relative survival data were analysed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Crude survival was calculated includi

Injuries before and after diagnosis of cancer : nationwide register based study

OBJECTIVE: To examine the relative risks of iatrogenic and non-iatrogenic injuries during the period shortly before and after a diagnosis of cancer.DESIGN: Nationwide register based study.SETTING: Swedish national population and health registers.PARTICIPANTS: 720 901 patients with diagnosis of cancer, 1991-2009, in Sweden.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: All hospital admissions in patients with cancer with

Effects of immunosuppressive treatment on host responses against intracerebral porcine neural tissue xenografts in rats

BACKGROUND: Embryonic xenogeneic neural tissue is an alternative for transplantation in Parkinson's disease, but immune responses limit the application. The aims of this study were to enhance the in vitro viability rates by donor tissue pretreatment; to compare the efficacy of cyclosporine A (CsA) and tacrolimus (FK) in inhibiting xenograft rejection in rats; to evaluate additional inductive thera

Risk and Gender : Daredevils and Eco-Angels

Through history and in most cultures differences between men and women have been observed and expressed in various ways. Also in our society differences between men and women are evident and this becomes particularly clear in the context of risk perception. This chapter will present three models that are found in the research literature that aim at explaining these differences. The first model foc
