Various care approaches are provided to support families with newly diagnosed children in their task of diabetes management. We conducted qualitative interviews with 36 parents of 23 children, newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. The parents were recruited from participants in a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) evaluating hospital-based care (HBC) and hospital-based home care (HBHC), to explore
Abstract Background: The incidence of peptic ulcer disease was expected to decrease following the introduction of acid inhibitors and H. pylori eradication. Aim: This study analyses possible changes in the incidence of bleeding peptic ulcer, treatment and mortality over time. Methods: Residents of Malmö hospitalised for bleeding gastric or duodenal ulcer disease1987-2004 were identified in hospita

This essay investigates one of the Naqshbandi-Haqqani Sufi order's centres in London. Sociological theories on New Social Movements are introduced as a means of understanding the activities of the participants at the Sufi centre. Several topics and activities from the centre are presented, among them meditation rituals, physical training and aspects of the relationship between the order's sheikh a
Abnormal chromosome segregation at mitosis is one way by which neoplastic cells accumulate the many genetic abnormalities required for tumour development. In this paper, a straightforward morphology-based classification of chromosome segregation errors in cancer is suggested. This classification distinguishes between abnormalities in spindle symmetry (spindle multipolarity, size-asymmetry of ana-t
Andgren S, Sjöberg L, Norrving B, Lindgren A. Time delay between symptom and surgery in patients with carotid artery stenosis. Acta Neurol Scand: DOI: 10.1111/j.1600-0404.2010.01478.x. © 2011 John Wiley & Sons A/S. Objectives - Many severe strokes are preceded by warning signs such as a transient ischemic attack or stroke with minor deficits. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) of a symptomatic carot
The problem of classifying short atrial fibrillatory segments in ambulatory ECG recordings as being either paroxysmal or persistent is addressed by investigating a robust approach to signal characterization. The method comprises preprocessing, estimation of the dominant atrial frequency for the purpose of controlling the subbands of a filter bank, and computation of the relative subband (harmonics
This is the first part of a series of papers devoted to direct and inverse scattering of transient waves in lossy inhomogeneous media. The medium is assumed to be stratified, i.e., it varies only with depth. The wave propagation is modeled in an electromagnetic case with spatially varying permittivity and conductivity. The objective in this first paper is to analyze properties of the scattering op
Two circuits are proposed for double edge-triggered D flip-flops (DETDFFs). A DETDFF responds to both edges of the clock pulse. As compared with positive or negative edge-triggered flip-flops, a DETDFF has advantages in terms of power dissipation and speed. Delay figures for these circuits are measured by simulation. It is shown that these circuits are faster and have lower transistor counts than
