The aims of this study was to review the practical of the immediate vaginal diagnosis by Gram staining in the gynecological practice. The elucidation and characterization of the vaginal microorganisms is important for providing a better understanding of the women’s health and diseases, as well as the search for adequate diagnosis and treatment. Here we described the processes about the appr
För att beskriva lagarna som styr den fysiska världen, behöver vi studera materiens struktur och hur dess olika delar växelverkar. Den grundläggande byggstenen för all känd materia i universum är atomen, vilken består av elektroner som rör sig runt en atomkärna. Atomen är ett kvantiserat mångkropparsystem, vars struktur karakteriseras av de diskreta och för ämnet unika energinivåer. Växelverkan meThis thesis deals with the relativistic modeling of atoms and ions. To interpret the stellar spectra and gain more insight from astrophysical observations, the underlying processes that generate the spectra need to be well understood and described. Examples of such processes are the interactions of atomic electrons with internal and external electromagnetic fields and with the nucleus.By exploring
Background and aims: Gut transit time is a key modulator of host-microbiome interactions, yet this is often overlooked, partly because reliable methods are typically expensive or burdensome. The aim of this single-arm, single-blinded intervention study is to assess (1) the relationship between gut transit time and the human gut microbiome, and (2) the utility of the a € blue dye' method as an inex
Novel methods to characterize the plasma proteome has made it possible to examine a wide range of proteins in large longitudinal cohort studies, but the complexity of the human proteome makes it difficult to identify robust protein-disease associations. Nevertheless, identification of individuals at high risk of early mortality is a central issue in clinical decision making and novel biomarkers ma
As no one symptom can predict disease severity or the need for dedicated medical support in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), we asked whether documenting symptom time series over the first few days informs outcome. Unsupervised time series clustering over symptom presentation was performed on data collected from a training dataset of completed cases enlisted early from the COVID Symptom Study
This article explores municipal variation in the implementation of a Danish educational reform. The aim of the reform was to increase the assimilation of immigrants, and removing mother-tongue training for first- and second-generation immigrants was believed to increase their proficiency in Danish. This article uses a difference-in-differences method to explore the effect of this removal on childr
Warriors and warfare have become common themes within Bronze Age archaeology the past 10 -20 years. Recent reporting of Neolithic and Bronze Age massacres and battlefields in Germany supports endemic violence in these regions. But what about in southern Scandinavia? This paper explores the evidence of violence related skull trauma from a pooled sample of 257 individuals from 40 different localitie
Nätläkare, vårdgivare som tillhandahåller sjukvårdstjänster via smartphoneappar, har gått från att vara perifera inslag i den svenska sjukvården till att på allvar utmana det konventionella sättet att bedriva sjukvård. Den tillgänglighet som nätläkare erbjuder är oöverträffad men alla patientgrupper har inte sett sin tillgång till vård förbättras i samma utsträckning tack vare nätläkare.Syftet medOnline doctor services, healthcare provided via smartphone apps, have gone from being peripheral to seriously challenging the conventional Swedish way of providing healthcare services. The accessibility of online doctors is unsurpassed but all patient groups have not gotten better access to healthcare thanks to online doctors.The aim of this study was to investigate how perceptions of the online d
Estimating age distributions, or star formation histories, of stellar populations in the Milky Way is important in order to study the evolution of trends in elemental abundances and kinematics. We build on previous work to develop an algorithm for estimating the age-metallicity distribution which uses the full age-metallicity probability density functions (PDFs) of individual stars. No assumptions
γ-CoV2O6 is a quasi-one-dimensional spin-3/2 magnet that possesses two distinct magnetic orders at low temperatures with propagation vectors k1=(½,0,0) and k2=(¼ + δh, δk, - ¼ + δl), respectively. Here we use muon spin relaxation and rotation to reveal the thermodynamics of the magnetic phase separation in this compound. In the paramagnetic (PM) region, short-range correlated spin clusters emerge
The concept of “Sustainable water use” (SWU) aims to assure three pillars of sustainability related to the water sector: the social, environmental, and economical. Industrial development, especially in developing countries, requires an adequate response, as industrial activities are recognized as one of the major sources of water pollution, what leads to deterioration of environmental safety and w
A numerical method is utilized in this paper to study the effects of varying divider inclination angle on the flow structure and heat transfer characteristics in a ribbed two-pass channel for Reynolds number varying from 10,000 to 50,000. The studied divider inclination angles are −3°,−2°,−1°,0°, +1°, +2° and +3°. The ribs have an orientating angle of 45°. The results show that the heat transfer i
This chapter provides a reassessment of the waste ‘crises’ in the so-called Land of Fires in Italy and highlights the contribution of local social mobilizations in advancing environmental justice and sustainability concerns. It is based on the long term collaboration between a social scientist and two activists, and it draws from a dialogue of academic and activist knowledge in the tradition of En
Purpose: The purpose of the paper is to theorize how to develop student entrepreneurs' ability to reflect by means of a learning activity called the entrepreneurial diary, which seeks to develop self-regulated learners capable of intelligent entrepreneurial action. The importance of self-regulation in entrepreneurship is linked to the individual's ability to make judgments under conditions of unce
For the perennial herb G. fastigiata on the Baltic island of Oland, there were significant correlations between electrophoretic variation at the PGI-2 locus and fine-scale gradients of compositional change in the limestone grassland plant communities occupied by G. fastigiata. Variation at the AAT-3 and IDH loci and in seed phenotype showed no significant correlations with plant community composit
The changing landscape of science and science education has provided an impetus to re-imagine how science can be taught in schools. The dawn of the Big Data era, especially in astronomy, and the notion of “Science as Practice” are some of the developments driving this need for a re-imagination of science education. This current work contributes to this agenda by exploring the features an education
Background: Management of cancer-related pain relies on the access to opioids. When regular opioids as morphine are not tolerated or are insufficient, adjuvant opioids as methadone are an affordable and effective analgesic. Aim: The aim of the project was to describe the pattern of use and clinical experiences of methadone in patients with cancer-related pain at a low-resource hospital in Hyderaba
Advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) may contribute to liver carcinogenesis because of their pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidative properties. Diet is a major source of AGEs, but there is sparse human evidence on the role of AGEs intake in liver cancer aetiology. We examined the association between dietary AGEs and the risk of hepatobiliary cancers in the European Prospective Investigation into Canc
Denna studie kretsar kring pheriwale, en grupp egenföretagare inom Indiens stora informella ekonomi. Pheriwale har livnärt sig på handel i Delhi under nästan ett sekel och sysslar med handel med begagnade kläder. De är en av de mest tydligt kvinnodominerade grupperna av gatuhandlare och -försäljare i staden. Genom att knacka dörr hos invånare i staden och förorten sysslar de med byteshandel och saThis study revolves around the working lives of pheriwale, a group of self-employed traders within India’s vast informal economy. Pheriwale have been trading in Delhi for nearly a century and are involved in the second-hand clothing trade. Among the wide variety of street vendors and traders in the city, pheriwale are one of the most visibly women-dominated. They offer a door-to-door service, coll
