Most products are developed while adapting to requirements from industrial production and logistics. To break that trend and design for people, we suggest focusing on those who put the strongest demands on the final solution. They cannot compensate for bad design solutions and are thereby, like sniffing dogs, guiding designers to meet peoples’ needs. We always use a combination of empathic modelli
Utveckling av bakteriella lyseringsbuffertar för snabbdiagnostik Bakteriella infektioner utgör ett stort hot till den allmänna folkhälsan. Därför krävs det en snabb och korrekt diagnostik som är tillgänglig i olika miljöer. Traditionella metoder är ofta långsamma och opålitliga, medan molekylära metoder så som PCR erbjuder precision men är kostsamma och komplexa. Efterfrågan för en användarvänlig
Purpose: To identify a specific factor that can support the decision for prophylactic fixation in unilateral slipped capital femoral epiphysis. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included a total national population of 379 children diagnosed with slipped capital femoral epiphysis from 2007 to 2013. Regression analysis used information on slip severity, clinical classification of the index hi
Background: In today’s business climate, companies need to make sure they have efficient resource management and that the quality of product and services fulfills the customers constant changing expectations, potential regulations, and global environmental policies. Possible approaches for companies to address this is through more strategic purchasing and earlier involvement of purchasers in proc
Background: A reproducible standard for a graded allergen response in allergic rhinitis is lacking. The aim was to evaluate basophil allergen threshold sensitivity, CD-sens, as a diagnostic complement to nasal allergen challenge. Methods: Twenty-six patients with a history of allergic rhinitis due to grass pollen were intranasally challenged and nasal symptom score and peak nasal inspiratory flow
Background: Vasa previa is a rare but potentially dangerous fetal condition that may occur during pregnancy. Ideally, all cases such cases are detected antenatally, but many present as late vaginal hemorrhaging. At the current time, there is no test for fetal hemoglobin (HbF) in general use. Methods: A modified method of identifying HbF is presented. Five milliliters of 0.14 M NaOH was combined wi
Medical research generates a large number of publications with the PubMed database already containing >35 million research articles. Integration of the knowledge scattered across this large body of literature could provide key insights into physiological mechanisms and disease processes leading to novel medical interventions. However, it is a great challenge for researchers to utilize this informa
This project is an collaboration with Höganäs AB, with the goal to design a light vehicle that meets the demands of the modern commuter, in function as well as in quality and sustainability. The result of the project is a light scooter using Höganäs E-Drive system, with Hydrogen Fuel Cells as the power source. The vehicle is designed to be adaptable to the user, while still being comfortable and e
Background and aim: The MY PD-CARE digital tool is intended to empower people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and care partners to actively identify and track changes in key symptoms of advancing PD and to facilitate discussions with healthcare professionals (HCPs). MY PD-CARE was adapted from MANAGE-PD, a validated, web-based tool that helps HCPs identify patients with inadequate symptom control. T
