Aim: This study determined the use of standardised procedures for infant noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) measurements in the Nordic countries and aimed to identify factors included in the standardisation and interpretation of NIBP measurements in infants. Methods: A cross-sectional electronic questionnaire survey was sent to 84 physicians in all 23 university hospitals in Sweden, Norway, Denmark

Background: Despite improvements in therapy regimens over the past decades, overall survival rates for pancreatic and periampullary cancer are poor. Specific cancer registries are set up in various nations to regional differences and to enable larger prospective trials. The aim of this study was to describe the Swedish register, including possibilities to improve diagnostic work-ups, treatment, an

We discuss the results of Gibson and Sailor (Boundary-Layer Meteorol 145:399–406, 2012)who suggest several corrections to themathematical formulation of the Lagrangianparticle dispersion model of Rotach et al. (Q J R Meteorol Soc 122:367–389, 1996). Whilemost of the suggested corrections had already been implemented in the 1990s, one suggestedcorrection raises a valid point, but results in a viola

Gene expression (GE) signatures and Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL) enumeration are predictive for response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in HR- and in HER2+ breast cancer, but data are conflicting in HR+/HER2- disease. This study aimed to explore their predictive value in this subset, measured both at baseline and after short exposure to chemotherapy. Specifically, the PROMIX phase 2 trial enr

Mothers carry the prime responsibility for childcare and feeding in low-income countries. Understanding their experiences in providing food for their children is paramount to informing efforts to improve the nutritional status of children. Such information is lacking in Sub-Saharan Africa. To understand what influences urban mothers' food acquisition and their motivations for selecting food for th

This paper contains the analysis of the transmission problem with a spherical, dielectric (possibly lossy) shell. The sources to the problem are located inside the spherical, dielectric shell. Two different source configurations are investigated - an off-center located electric dipole and a circular Huygens surface. An exact modal series solution of the transmission problem is found and the solutiThis paper contains the analysis of the transmission problem with a spherical,dielectric (possibly lossy) shell.

Due to the ability to manipulate photons at nanoscale, plasmonics has become one of the most important branches in nanophotonics. The prerequisites for the technological application of plasmons include high confining ability (λ0/λp), low damping, and easy tunability. However, plasmons in typical plasmonic materials, i.e., noble metals, cannot satisfy these three requirements simultaneously and cau

The application of remote sensing methods to assess crop vigor and yields has had limited applications in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) due largely to limitations associated with satellite images. The increasing use of unmanned aerial vehicles in recent times opens up new possibilities for remotely sensing crop status and yields even on complex smallholder farms. This study demonstrates the applicabili

En specifik typ av metaforer i svensk dikt, där ord för triviala ting krockar med ord för höga, abstrakta ting härleds till den tyske diktaren Jean Paul (1763 - 1825), och visas i Tegnérs, C F Dahlgrens, E A Karlfeldts, Birger Sjöbergs och Tomas Tranströmer dikter. Metafortypen är förbunden med en teologisk idé om metaforens möjlighet att överskrida gränsen mellan det jordiska och det himmelska.

Under slutet av 1500-talet och början av 1600-talet utgjorde La Rochelle den viktigaste reformerta enklaven i Frankrike. I denna artikel studerar jag hur religionsstriderna, både de faktiska händelserna och de olika rykten som cirkulerade, framträdde i den reformerta prästen Jacques Merlins anteckningar från 1589 till 1620.
