Background: Telemedicine innovations are rarely adopted into routine health care, the reasons for which are not well understood. Teleguidance, a promising service for remote surgical guidance during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) was due to be scaled up, but there were concerns that user attitudes might influence adoption. Objective: Our objective was to gain a deeper unders

Over the last few years, we have witnessed a surge in protest movements around the world. As planet Earth shows its vulnerability and a global pandemic has fundamentally recalibrated the textures of our individual and collective lives, a shared concern for survival triggers individuals and groups to contest the status quo and to call for alternative solutions to the pressing issues of our time. Th

Screening 60-yr-old men for renal cancer using ultrasound may be cost effective, and further research into this topic is of value to society. The prevalence of renal cancer by age/sex and the stage shift associated with screening are key research priorities.

Background and Objective: Waste in clinical trials remains rife. We developed an economic model to predict the cost of trials based on input costs, duration, power, number of sites, recruitment eligibility and consenting rates. Methods: We parameterised the model for three proxy placebo-controlled surgical trials using data from a systematic review, a bespoke cost survey, and from the literature.

Sedan antiken har humanismen försökt definiera den mänskliga naturens väsen samtidigt som den placerar människan i universums centrum som ”alla tings mått”. I ett försök att omvärdera människans betydelse har det talats om ett slags transhumanistisk intersubjektivitet. Jag utgår från fysikern och feministen Karen Barads begrepp intraaktion (samspel mellan integrerade delar). Barad myntar begreppet

Energy conservation plays a vital role towards sustainable development of meat processing. Energy costs for many meat plants represent the fourth highest operational cost. In meat processing, moderate levels of both electrical and thermal energy are consumed in wide range of processes and applications. However, energy efficiency improvement in the meat processing industry have been a focus to incr

Kortvariga intensiva regn med varaktighet upp till en timme åren 1980–2007 från nederbördsmätare i Malmöhar analyserats för att finna intensiteter med lång återkomsttid. Oberoende observationer för olika stationer harsammanförts till en serie till vilken sannolikhetsfördelningar anpassats. Korttidsregnmätningars tillförlitlighetdiskuteras. De extrema händelserna har behandlats individuellt. För atShort-term intensive storms of duration up to an hour the years 1980–2007 from rain gauges in Malmö havebeen analyzed to find intensities of long return periods. Non-dependent observations from different stationshave been combined into a series to which probability functions have been adjusted. The extreme events havebeen investigated individually. The reliability of rain measurements is discussed
