Teamarbete på operationssal, organisationsdesign och patientsäkerhet

Teamarbete är vanligt inom hälso- och sjukvården. I mitt avhandlingsarbete har jag studerat teamarbete på operationssal med fokus på hur det praktiska arbetet faktiskt går till. Avhandlingens delstudier berör sådant som den praktiska användningen av formella rutiner (WHOs checklista för säker kirurgi), ledarskap på operationssal, olika professioners syn på det gemensamma arbetet, testning av en me

Does exogenous carbon extend the realized niche of canopy lichens? Evidence from sub-boreal forests in British Columbia

Foliose lichens with cyanobacterial bionts (bipartite and tripartite) form a distinct assemblage of epiphytes strongly associated with humid microclimatic conditions in inland British Columbia. Previous research showed that these cyano- and cephalolichen communities are disproportionately abundant and species-rich on conifer saplings beneath Populus compared to beneath other tree species.

Measurement of tau polarization in W -> tau nu decays with the ATLAS detector in pp collisions at root s=7 TeV

In this paper, a measurement of tau polarization in W -> tau nu decays is presented. It is measured from the energies of the decay products in hadronic tau decays with a single final state charged particle. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 24 pb(-1), were collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider in 2010. The measured value of the tau polarization is P-ta

A parametric Analysis of the Undeformed Chip Geometry in Gear Hobbing

Hobbing is a common manufacturing method when producing helical, involute gears. In order to increase tool life and surface finish, an accurate method to determine chip geometry is needed. Although this accurateness may involve numeric solutions, the geometric description must, as far as possible, be analytic and give a description of the continuously changing chip geometry. In this report, the c

Sonogashira coupling reaction over supported gold nanoparticles: Influence of support and catalyst synthesis route

This study investigates the impact of supports and synthesis routes on the performance of supported gold nanoparticles in the Sonogashira coupling reaction. The catalysts were synthesized by deposition-precipitation (DP) and incipient wetness impregnation (IMP), employing carriers of different nature (redox: CeO2, TiO2, and non-redox: Al2O3) and were characterized by various physical techniques su

Assignment of the L2,3VV normal Auger decay spectrum of Cl-2 by ab initio calculations

Auger decay processes of the Cl 2p ionized states have been studied in Cl-2 by means of high- resolution electron spectroscopy and ab initio calculations. This led to reassignment of the normal L2,3VV Auger decay spectrum of Cl2. The reliability of this assignment is strongly supported by an independent measurement of the L2; 3VV Auger electron spectrum of Cl2 which has been obtained after selecti

Effects of autism spectrum disorders on outcome in teenage-onset anorexia nervosa evaluated by the Morgan-Russell outcome assessment schedule: a controlled community-based study

Background: The purpose of the study was to evaluate time trends and effects of co-existing autism spectrum disorders (ASD) on outcome in an ongoing long-term follow-up study of anorexia nervosa (AN). Methods: The Morgan-Russell Outcome Assessment Schedule (MROAS) was used at 6-, 10- and 18-year follow-up of a representative sample of 51 individuals with teenage-onset AN and a matched group of 51

On the concentration-induced growth of nonionic wormlike micelles.

We present a comprehensive study of the concentration-induced growth of nonionic wormlike micelles in dilute solutions, below the overlap concentration, where we combine static and dynamic light scattering and NMR self-diffusion. The data are analyzed in detail in terms of the number-averaged contour length, assuming an exponential size distribution, as predicted by theory, and that the micellar f

Evidence from Formosan for a unified theory of adverb ordering

This paper presents evidence from the Austronesian languages of Taiwan (Formosan languages) bearing on the ongoing debate between followers of Cinque (1999: Adverbs and functional heads) and Ernst (2002: The syntax of adjuncts): are adverbs adjoined to the clause, with semantically determined ordering, or are they located in functional projections in the backbone of the clause, with the ordering d

Occupational Performance Problems in 85-Year-Old Women and Men in Sweden

An area of concern for occupational therapy is to increase preventive interventions among relatively healthy elderly individuals. The purpose of this study was to explore occupational performance problems among 85-year-old women and men in relation to demographic data, mental health, and health-related quality of life. Participants completed a postal questionnaire including the EuroQoL health-rela

Identification of a sex pheromone produced by sternal glands in females of the caddisfly Molanna angustata Curtis.

In the caddisfly Molanna angustata, females produce a sex pheromone in glands with openings on the fifth sternite. Gas chromatographic analyses of pheromone gland extracts with electroantennographic detection revealed four major compounds that stimulated male antennae. These compounds were identified by means of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and enantioselective gas chromatography as heptan

A Gender-Just Peace: Exploring the Post-Dayton Peace Process

This article is rooted in the understanding that global ideas of liberal democratic peace and the gendered dynamics of peacebuilding need to be confronted. The aim is to explore the challenges of localizing liberal democratic peace by exploring efforts such as those undertaken by women’s organizations in Bosnia-Herzegovina to promote a gender-just peace. The Dayton Peace Accord was the new “social

Challenging modeling strategies for LES of non-adiabatic turbulent stratified combustion

Five different low-Mach large eddy simulations are compared to the turbulent stratified flame experiments conducted at the Technical University of Darmstadt (TUD). The simulations were contributed by TUD, the Institute for Combustion Technology (ITV) at Aachen, Lund University (LUND), the EM2C laboratory at Ecole Centrale Paris, and the University of Duisburg-Essen (UDE). Combustion is modeled by

Recognition bias and the physical attractiveness stereotype.

Previous studies have found a recognition bias for information consistent with the physical attractiveness stereotype (PAS), in which participants believe that they remember that attractive individuals have positive qualities and that unattractive individuals have negative qualities, regardless of what information actually occurred. The purpose of this research was to examine whether recognition b

Polymerase chain reaction is superior to serology for the diagnosis of acute Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection and reveals a high rate of persistent infection

Background: Diagnosis of Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) infection is traditionally based on serology, which may require more than two weeks for diagnostic antibodies to develop. PCR-based methods offer earlier diagnosis. During a community outbreak of MP infection, we compared seminested and real-time PCR of oropharyngeal swabs with serology for diagnosis of MP infection at different time points after

Determination of serum amyloid P component in seminal plasma and correlations with serum hormone levels in young, healthy men.

Abstract Serum amyloid P component (SAP) belongs to the pentraxin family of proteins. SAP is evolutionary conserved, and involved in amyloidosis, innate immunity, inflammation, and apoptosis. We have previously described SAP in the male reproductive tract, where it occurs in seminal fluid, on spermatozoa, and in epididymal, seminal vesicle, and prostate tissue. In the present investigation, our ai

Reconstructing range dynamics and range fragmentation of European bison for the last 8000 years

Aim Understanding what constituted species ranges prior to large-scale human influence, and how past climate and land use change have affected range dynamics, provides conservation planners with important insights into how species may respond to future environmental change. Our aim here was to reconstruct the Holocene range of European bison (Bison bonasus) by combining a time-calibrated species d
