Utility of the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure as an admission and outcome measure in interdisciplinary community-based geriatric rehabilitation
In a community-based geriatric rehabilitation project, the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) was used to develop a coordinated, interdisciplinary, and client-centred approach focusing on occupational performance. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the utility of the COPM as an admission and outcome measure in an interdisciplinary geriatric rehabilitation context in Denmark. E
Lower risk of stent thrombosis and restenosis with unrestricted use of onew-generation' drug-eluting stents: a report from the nationwide Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry (SCAAR)
To compare the long-term outcome after percutaneous coronary intervention with onew-generation' drug-eluting stents (n-DES) to oolder generation' DES (o-DES), and bare-metal stents (BMS) in a real-world population. We evaluated 94 384 consecutive stent implantations (BMS, n 64 631; o-DES, n 19 202; n-DES, n 10 551) in Sweden from November 2006 to October 2010. All cases of definite stent thrombosi
Framing and Misperception in Public Good Experiments
Earlier studies have found that framing has a substantial impact on the degree of cooperation observed in public good experiments. We show that the way the public good game is framed affects misperceptions about the incentives of the game. Moreover, we show that such framing-induced differences in misperceptions are linked to the framing effect on subjects’ cooperation behavior. When we do not con
Volterra invariant subspaces of H-p
A complete description is obtained for the subspaces of the Hardy space H-P (p >= 1) that are invariant under the Volterra integral operator. We then show that this result can be applied to derive complete characterizations of such subspaces in a large class of Banch spaces of analytic functions in the unit disc containing the usual Bergman and Dirichlet spaces.

In vitro colonic fermentation of food ingredients isolated from Agave tequilana Weber var. azul applied on granola bars
The stem of Agave tequilana Weber is used to obtain fructans. Reports on the potential prebiotic activity of agave fructans as ingredients are scarce. The aim of this study was to evaluate the indigestible fraction (IF) content and the short chain fatty acid production (SCFA) from in vitro fermentation of: Native-agavefructans (NAF), agave-dietary-fiber (ADF), high-performance-fructans (HPF), both
Lack of adherence to hypertension treatment guidelines among GPs in southern Sweden-A case report- based survey
Background: General practitioners (GPs) often fail to correctly adhere to guidelines for the treatment of hypertension. The reasons for this are unclear, but could be related to lack of knowledge in assessing individual patients' cardiovascular disease risk. Our aim was to investigate how GPs in southern Sweden adhere to clinical guidelines for the treatment of hypertension when major cardiovascul
Sound, mind and emotion - research and aspects

Gpr116 Receptor Regulates Distinctive Functions in Pneumocytes and Vascular Endothelium.
Despite its known expression in both the vascular endothelium and the lung epithelium, until recently the physiological role of the adhesion receptor Gpr116/ADGRF5 has remained elusive. We generated a new mouse model of constitutive Gpr116 inactivation, with a large genetic deletion encompassing exon 4 to exon 21 of the Gpr116 gene. This model allowed us to confirm recent results defining Gpr116 a

Xylose fermentation as a challenge for commercialization of lignocellulosic fuels and chemicals
Fuel ethanol production from lignocellulosic materials is at a level where commercial biofuel production is becoming a reality. The solubilization of the hemicellulose fraction in lignocellulosic-based feedstocks results in a large variety of sugar mixtures including xylose. However, allowing xylose fermentation in yeast that normally is used for fuel ethanol production requires genetic engineerin
Confinement properties of a Ga0.25In0.75As/InP quantum point contact
We study the electrostatic confinement properties of a ballistic GaInAs nanostructure, a system with a high potential for quantum applications due to its small effective mass and persistence of quantum effects to higher temperatures. By measuring the magnetic depopulation of one-dimensional subbands in an etched quantum point contact, we demonstrate that the slope of the confinement at the Fermi l
Extensible intraprocedural flow analysis at the abstract syntax tree level
We have developed a new approach for implementing precise intraprocedural control-flow and dataflow analyses at the abstract syntax tree level. Our approach is declarative, making use of reference attribute grammars augmented with circular attributes and collection attributes. This results in concise executable specifications of the analyses, allowing extensions both to the language and with furth
A Theory of Innovation: Market Transition, Property Rights, and Innovative Activity
The aim of this paper is to specify a theory to explain why transitions to a market economy cause a shift to a higher level of innovation. Marketization increases the power of economic actors relative to political actors, increases inter-firm competition, creates new opportunities for entrepreneurship, and subsequently motivates innovative activity. For our empirical application, we focus on China
Detection of fluorescent nanoparticles in flame with femtosecond laser-induced fluorescence anisotropy
The mean size of fluorescent nanoparticles produced in a propane flame has been measured with an in-situ technique employing a femtosecond laser to excite the sample and a streak camera for time-resolved detection of the fluorescence. The time profile of the fluorescence anisotropy showed a Gaussian behaviour, typical of free rotor reorientation. By measuring its width, we estimated an average car
Effect of hydrophobic modifications in antimicrobial peptides.
With increasing resistance development against conventional antibiotics, there is an urgent need to identify novel approaches for infection treatment. Antimicrobial peptides may offer opportunities in this context, hence there has been considerable interest in identification and optimization of such peptides during the last decade in particular, with the long-term aim of developing these to potent
Resolvent estimates and decomposable extensions of generalized Cesaro operators
We determine the spectrum of generalized Cesaro operators with essentially rational symbols acting on various spaces of analytic functions, including Hardy spaces, weighted Bergman and Dirichlet spaces. Then we show that in all cases these operators are subdecomposable. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
Differences in the radiological characteristics between post-traumatic and non-traumatic knee osteoarthritis.
Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee can be defined as primary (non-traumatic) or secondary (post-traumatic). Both non-traumatic OA and post-traumatic OA have been described predominantly in the medial compartment of the knee. The objective of this study was to compare the location of structural radiographic changes in non-traumatic OA and post-traumatic OA. A non-traumatic cohort, consisting of 155 pa
Doping of semiconductor nanowires
A cornerstone in the successful application of semiconductor nanowire devices is controlled impurity doping. In this review article, we discuss the key results in the field of semiconductor nanowire doping. Considerable development has recently taken place in this field, and half of the references in this review are less than 3 years old. We present a simple model for dopant incorporation during i
