Vitrectomy requires the substitution of the natural vitreous, as well as tamponading of retinal breaks. Clinically available alternatives such as gas and silicone oil have side effects such as inflammation, secondary glaucoma, cataract, and a need for head posturing. In this study, a hydrogel of cross-linked sodium hyaluronic acid (Healaflow(®)) is evaluated for use as a novel vitreous substitute.

he nearby meadows during a number of days, in order to increase the production. During 1991 it has been tested, in two places in Scania (the southernmost part of Sweden), as a system for removing nitrogen from river water. The nitrogen removal measured through mass balance budget is compared with directly measured plant uptake and denitrification. At the first site, Vombs ängar near Vombsjön, wher

Det är sjuksköterskans uppgift att se en människa i ett helhetsperspektiv. Detta innebär även att ta hänsyn till närståendes situation. Syftet med föreliggande studie var att låta några föräldrar beskriva hur det är att vara anhörig till någon som drabbats av schizofreni. Intervjuer genomfördes utifrån kvalitativ ansats med elva föräldrar som var medlemmar i Intresseföreningen för Schizofreni. Ur

Writing the history of philosophy to some extent also implies expressing a certain philosophy of history. This article discusses a particular case of this dialectic, namely how one has related modern philosophy to pre-modern theological philosophies when writing the history of philosophy during the 20th Century. Is the emphasis put on the continuity or the interruptions between the two traditions,

This PhD project balances an interest in social work and its prospects for deliv-ering emancipation or relief from stigma, etc. through motivational agency, on the one hand, with an attentiveness to recent developments in Scandinavian criminal policy, on the other. In my attempts at »bridging« these interests I have come to focus on offender rehabilitation. In this short paper I shall present the

PURPOSE: To confirm the findings from uncontrolled studies that aggressive cytoreduction in combination with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is superior to standard treatment in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis of colorectal cancer origin.PATIENTS AND METHODS: Between February 1998 and August 2001, 105 patients were randomly assigned to receive either standard treatment co

This chapter proposes a novel offline text dependent writer verification method based on Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM). The method is used to combine the result of Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transforms (DT-CWT) and GLCM features to enhance the GLCM feature performance. The texture is a very important characteristic, which is used to verify the known writer from unknown writers. We have use

Bildandet av blodceller, hematopoesen, utgår från ett litet antal av de så kallade hematopoetiska stamceller som sitter i vår benmärg. Dessa celler har förmågan att ge upphov till alla mogna blodcellstyper av de tre hematopoetiska linjerna, samtidigt som de genom celldelning bibehåller sin egna mängd. Det har uppskattats att vi endast har några tusen hematopoetiska stamceller, men trots deras rela

Pixel classification of watershed satellite image is a challenging task in remote sensing. Uses of Particle Swarm Optimisation and Cellular Automata are significant methods in watershed image segmentation. This paper proposes a method of pixel classification using a new hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization-Cellular Automata approach. The proposed unsupervised method identifies clusters using 2-Dimen
