PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Delayed awakening after targeted temperature management (TTM) and sedation is frequent among cardiac arrest patients. Differentiating between prolonged coma and irreversible cerebral damage can be challenging, therefore the utilization of a multimodal approach is recommended by international guidelines. Here, we discuss indications and advantages/disadvantages of available modal

The presence of paralytic shellfish poisoning toxins (PSTs) in drinking water resources has urged the development of simple and fast screening tools for drinking water surveillance. This article aims to validatea quick test kit for freshwater PSTs detection. Preliminary estimates of the limit of detection (LODs)were done for 5 PSPs variants, namely C1 toxin (a “C” toxin); GTX5(a Gonyautoxin); and

This study attempts to apply computational methods to the Twitter Election Integrity Datasets in order to derive a basic descriptive overview of this disinformation data, and to suggest some possible routes for developing these methods to address future research questions. The results indicate substantial variations in tweet frequency over time and geographical regions, as well as differences in r

BAKGRUND: Hos den äldre befolkningen är det vanligt med minnessvårigheter som påverkar uppmärksamhet och andra kognitiva funktioner. Detta kan vara tecken på utveckling av mild kognitiv svikt (MCI), vilken kan leda till demens. Motivation till förändring har visat sig vara betydelsefull för rehabilitering. Ett formulär som mäter denna är “Motivation for Change Questionnaire (MCQ). Formuläret har

Den inre marknaden i EU karaktäriseras av ett antal friheter. Onlinespel faller under etableringsfrihet och friheten att tillhandahålla tjänster. Medlemsstaterna har med stöd av ett fördragsundantag, tenderat att vilja förbehålla sig rätten att erbjuda speltjänster inom respektive land. Internets framfart har dock lett till ett paradigmskifte på spelområdet där nu öppnare licenssystem ersätter monThe European internal market is characterised by a number of freedoms. Online gambling is the subject of the freedom of establishment and freedom to provide services. Member states tend to invoke an exception of the free movement, granting them exclusive rights to provide gambling services. The growth of the internet and its impact on the gambling industry has however created a shift in paradigm.

Design, as a principal function for innovation in business, governments, and other social units, can play a critical role in creating sustainable solutions. While current debates acknowledge expanding design scope and continuing competencies that distinctively qualify design professionals for undertaking sustainability challenges, design schools in higher education institutions are struggling to m

The purpose of this study is to quantitatively investigate the moderating effect of consumers' need for uniqueness (NFU) in the relationship between perceived brand stereotypes, brand emotions, and perceived customer value. The study follows a quantitative research method with a sample-survey research design, where hypotheses have been developed supported by a theoretical framework. Data was c

The terms “gender” and “sex” are central to feminist concerns. In English scholarship “gender” is disputed within and outside of feminism, despite its seemingly political correctness as an alternative to “sex” (Olson 2012; Gunnarsson 2011). This thesis aims to describe how “gender”, multi-word expressions with “gender”, and the derivative “gendered” are translated into Arabic target texts (TTs) by

Sustainable development requires collaboration between governments, businesses, and citizens. However, economic models, sustainability practices, and global policies are currently not fit-for-purpose to maintain global temperatures to 1.5 degrees centigrade within the timescales required to maintain a safe space for humanity to thrive. This study maps the alignment of business values and practices

The VUCA world we face today, proposes challenges for individuals with a high Need for Closure (NFC) as they may experience decreased well-being when faced with uncertainty and ambiguity. This in turn creates a problem for organizations as their employees with a high NFC may struggle to come up with innovative solutions to the complexity they are facing, making it difficult for the organization to

Formativ bedömning (FB) är ett arbetssätt som bidrar till både främjandet av elevers lärande och utveckling av undervisningen. Tidigare forskning har rapporterat om bland annat missuppfattningar kring FB och såväl förtjänster som utmaningar med implementering av FB. I denna studie undersöker vi matematiklärares uppfattningar om och upplevelser av FB och utgår från Black och Wiliams modell för impl

With the growing integration of renewable energy sources into the power grid, new challenges for system stability have emerged. To address this, the European Union has introduced a regulation called Requirements for Generators (RfG). This regulation sets specific performance standards, one of which is a minimum critical clearing time related to faults. Some production facilities with low inertial
