Yrkesutbildningens låga attraktionskraft : Ett problem utan lösning?

Det avslutande kapitlet omfattar en sammanfattning av de analyser och svar som författarna i denna bok lämnar på de tre frågor som har väglett texterna i denna antologi. Sammanfattningen kompletteras med resonemang förda i andra publikationer för att framhäva författarnas slutsatser, samtidigt är det i skrivande stund mycket svårt att hitta forskning som ger en annan bild av den svenska yrkesutbil

Assessment of Pulmonary Blood Flow in Heart Failure. Using Novel and Non-Invasive Diagnostic Methods.

In heart failure (HF), the heart is unable to pump effectively in order to satisfy the demands of the body. The elevated filling pressure seen in HF leads to accumulation of fluid in the lungs, i.e pulmonary congestion. While investigation with chest X-ray is recommended, it has limitations in detecting pulmonary congestion. Ventilation/perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (V/P SPE

Gender, autoantibodies, and obesity in newly diagnosed diabetic patients aged 40-75 years

OBJECTIVE - To evaluate the frequency of autoimmune markers (islet cell antibodies [ICA] and glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies [GADA]) and clinical features in newly diagnosed people with diabetes aged 40-75 years. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS - Two hundred fifty-nine consecutive patients (aged 40-75 years) with newly suspected diabetes diagnosed during a 2-year period were studied. The diagno

The frequency and severity of retinopathy are related to HbA(1c) values after, but not at, the diagnosis of NIDDM

Objectives. To examine the relationship between previous glycaemic exposure and prevalence of retinopathy 8 years after diagnosis of diabetes in 58 islet cell antibodies (ICA)-negative noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) patients and in a group of 14 ICA-positive 'NIDDM' and insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) patients. Design and methods. The Wisconsin retinopathy scale was used

Islet cell antibodies at diagnosis, but not leanness, relate to a better cardiovascular risk factor profile 5 years after diagnosis of NIDDM

OBJECTIVE - To evaluate the relationship between islet cell antibodies (ICAs) and the cardiovascular risk profile 5 years after clinical diagnosis of NIDDM. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS - Five years after clinical diagnosis, we evaluated blood pressure (BP) and lipids in 17 NIDDM patients with ICA at diagnosis (age 60 ± 4 years) and 133 NIDDM patients without ICA at diagnosis (age 61 ± 1 year). Uri

Proinsulin secretion during the first 3 years after diagnosis in diabetic patients with and without islet cell antibodies

OBJECTIVE - To evaluate proinsulin secretion in different types of NIDDM. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS - Proinsulin and insulin were evaluated at diagnosis of diabetes and 3 years later (fasting and after stimulation with intravenous glucose and glucagon) in 10 NIDDM patients without islet cell antibodies (ICAs) at diagnosis (age 52 ± 4 years), 11 NIDDM patients with ICAs at diagnosis (age 50 ± 5 y
