Objectives To explore how mandatory reporting to the supervisory authority of suicides among recipients of healthcare services has influenced associated investigations conducted by the healthcare services, the lessons obtained and whether any suicide-prevention-related improvements in terms of patient safety had followed. Design and settings Retrospective study of reports from Swedish primary and

We describe the presumably first intentional ABO-incompatible deceased-donor kidney and pancreas transplantation with a severe antibody-mediated rejection during a rebound of isoagglutinins. Rejection was successfully treated with eculizumab, which inhibits the terminal pathway of complement. Complement analysis (C3, C3d,g, and a modified assay of classical complement-related hemolytic function) d

Svällningsstudier med gelatin Av: Victor Norgren, Lunds tekniska högskola, 2015-06-15 Introduktion Gelatin är en genomskinlig proteinbaserad biopolymer, som tillverkas av kollagen. Kollagen är bindningsvävnaden som fäster musklerna till benen i kroppen. Genom att t.ex. koka benknotorna kan man utvinna kollagenet som blir gelatin när det tillåts sätta sig igen. Gelatintrådarna behåller den spiralThis report is about the measurements of swelling gelatine films of different thickness and at different temperature. The research has been mainly focused on finding a suitable model. Results have shown that the new Pseudo-Sigmoidal Model (PSM) is superior to previous quasi-second order models such as the Robinson and Ofner model. It has also been shown that gelatine’s swelling can be divided into

Syftet med denna uppsats är att belysa och problematisera diskussionen kring straffbarhetsålderns lämplighet. Syftet innefattar även att utreda om straffbarhetsåldern är ändamålsenligt satt. Sedan år 1902 har Sverige haft en absolut straffbarhetsålder på femton år men åldern har tidigare än så varit lagstadgad runt femton år även om undantag har funnits. Att barn som begår brott inte ska straffasThis essay aims to highlight and frame the discussion of the age of criminal responsibility. This also involves an investigation as to whether the age of criminal responsibility in Sweden is appropriate and contemporary. Since 1902, Sweden has had an absolute age of criminal responsibility of fifteen years old, subject to some exceptions. This outlines that it is not a new regulation that child o

With the foreign political turbulence after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the world came into a change. The post-cold war environment meant that the politics of the bipolarity no longer were the case. This period leads to pressure in redefining Sweden’s foreign and security policy, resulting in an emergence of a different commitment to the countries neutrality and non-alignment. In the light of Kje

Markov Regime-Switching GARCH (MRS-GARCH) models have been gaining popularity due to their ability to account for shifts volatility regimes that tend to characterize returns series. Previous empirical studies have shown that this capacity to capture the volatility dynamics leads to a superior forecasting power of the MRS models. We investigate the performance of these models in quantifying and man

Between 1991 and 1994 the number of beds in the surgical clinic at a central hospital in Southern Sweden was cut back by almost 50%. To develop the nursing care and to control the effects of the budgetary cuts, an intervention, including nursing care development, of an organization that would secure continuity in the nurse-patient relationship, individually planned care and quality assurance for a

PURPOSE: Pre-clinical studies have shown that ex vivo non-ischemic heart preservation (NIHP) method can be safely used for 24 hours. This state-of-the-art method has never been applied on humans. ໿໿The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the NIHP method on early and late human heart allograft function compared with static cold storage (SCS). METHODS: We perfor

A housing adaptation (HA) can enable independent living in one's own home, but deciding to change the home environment can be a thought-provoking matter. The aim of this study was to explore the applicant's perspective and decision-making process when applying for an HA grant. Seventeen persons were interviewed about their application for such a grant, and the data were analyzed using a constant c

BackgroundPeople with intellectual disability have been found to have higher prevalence of psychiatric disorders than the general population. However, they do not seem to have a corresponding increase in psychiatric care utilization. The aim of the present study was to investigate psychiatric care utilization among older people with intellectual disability.MethodsWe used a cohort of people with in

Neurodegeneration and inflammation are fundamental aspects of many neurological diseases. A genome-wide scan of the response to ventral root avulsion (VRA) in a rat F2 cross discloses specific gene regions that regulate these processes. Two gene loci displayed linkage to neurodegeneration and T cell infiltration, respectively, and a single locus displayed extreme linkage to VRA-induced major histo

This paper estimates a "Grossman" model of demand for health. We measure health status on a 0 (dead) to 1 (full health) cardinal scale by the rating scale method and the time trade-off method. We also use a categorical measure of overall health status commonly used in quality of life measurements. To estimate the demand for health equations, the Tobit technique is used for the rating scale and tim

A multicentre study was performed at four oncology centres in Sweden, in 160 chemotherapy-naive women, primarily with ovarian or endometrial carcinomas. Abdominal surgery preceded chemotherapy in 146 (91%) women, and another 39 (24%) women had a history of radiotherapy. The chemotherapy regimens contained cisplatin (50-100 mg/m2), in combination with a variety of other agents. In Course 1, all pat
