Objective: High fractions of inspired oxygen (FIO2) used in acute lung injury (ALI) may promote resorption atelectasis. The impact of derecruitment related to high FIO2 in ALI is debated. We evaluated derecruitment with 100% vs. 60% FIO2 at two levels of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). Patients: Fourteen consecutive patients with ALI were studied. Interventions: Recruited volume at two PE

Research in avian blood parasites has seen a remarkable increase since the introduction of polymerase chain reaction-based methods for parasite identification. New data are revealing complex multihost-multiparasite systems which are difficult to understand without good knowledge of the host range and geographical distribution of the parasite lineages. However, such information is currently difficu

Background Estimation of skin diseases in the community is challenging because we do not easily have access to the nonhealthcare-seeking population. A potential tool is a questionnaire asking for self-reported skin complaints. Such an instrument has not yet been developed. Objectives To validate a simple instrument assessing skin morbidity in the general adult population, to predict clinical skin

There are accelerating trends for the implementation of electronic commerce(e-commerce) as an extra marketing channel for selling products globally via the access of the Internet. This is expected to in¯uence the shape of future cities and the conservation of natural resources. This paper critically reviews the current research work to date regarding the environmental implications of e-commerce. T

Bergslagens malmprovins är känd för att innehålla stora Zn-Pb-Ag- och Zn-Pb-Cu-Ag-sulfidförekomster med tillhörande järnoxidskarn och många studier har fokuserat på att förstå dessa förekomster. Cu-Co-förekomster som Vena-Dampetorp-förekomsten har emellertid fått mindre uppmärksamhet. Vena-Dampetorp-förekomsten är en disseminerad och åderstödd Cu-Co-mineralisering som förekommer i en 1,89 Ga ryoliThe Bergslagen Province is known for containing major Zn-Pb-Ag and Zn-Pb-Cu-Ag sulphide mineralizations with associated iron-oxide skarns and a lot of research have focused on understanding them. However, Cu-Co deposits like the Vena-Dampetorp deposit have received less attention. The Vena-Dampetorp deposit is a disseminated and vein Cu-Co mineralization hosted primarily in a 1.89 Ga rhyolitic to

Pollen Analytical Standard Batch 3862 June 2014 The Pollen Analytical Standard can be dissolved in water or in HCl. The standard has been prepared in a slightly different way compared to that described by Stockmarr (1971, 1973). It is based mainly on sodium carbonate, some polyethyleneglycol and traces of spores of Lycopodium clavatum . New for this batch is that the sodium bicarbonate has been re

The choice of which potential evapotranspiration (PET) model to use when estimating streamflow using a rainfall-runoff model have been the topic of many studies. The aim with this thesis was to assess the robustness of six different PET models using HBV-light as rainfall-runoff model over three catchments in Sweden. The robustness was evaluated by using a differential split sample test (DSST) base

In this article, the effects of conflict on the economic growth of neighboring countries (referred to as economic spillover effects of conflict) are studied for Asia, Africa and Latin America during 1990-2019. Compared to previous studies on the subject, this study accounts for the changing conflict climate over the years by starting the sample period 30 years later than other authors. The overall

Alt-Lit is a literary movement which first sprung up in The U.S in the middle of the first decade of the second millennia. Vaguely defined and led by aspiring writers belonging to the Y-Generation, also known as millennials, its presence and influence has become increasingly apparent. These are the first writers to use the internet, not only as a platform, but as an aesthetic and linguistic inspir

I detta examensarbete har tanken varit att få en ökad kunskap för hur chiafröet påverkar det glutenfria brödet. Orsaken till det glutenfria brödets uppkomst är sjukdomen celiaki. Samtidigt som forskning utförs inom området celiaki är det svårt för människor med denna diagnos att hitta bra glutenfria brödalternativ. Den sensoriska kvalitén, texturen och smaken i ett glutenfritt bröd kan tyckas vara

Initially, the subject of this paper was to investigate how the Swedish cultural heritage law (Kulturmiljölagen 1988:950) affects the church buildings of the Church of Sweden. When the parishes of the Church of Sweden wish to change their churches interiors to fit contemporary liturgical ideals they must first seek permission from the County Administrative Boards who ensures the preservation of th

This project aims to develop a kitchen bench, a classic Swedish furniture. e benches' purpose has been to function as a way to enable rooms to have multiple roles. is project aims to revive the bench, because of a personal connection to the bench as well as a need due to the covid-19 pandemic. We spend more time at home, and a multi-purpose storage solution is vital to give our homes more exib

Jordens invånarantal ökar med rasande fart vilket också leder till ett ökat behov av mat. Detta har resulterat i ett intensivt jordbruk som bland annat kan orsaka skada på de livsviktiga organismerna som lever i marken. Organismer som lever i marken kan bland annat vara bakterier, svampar och även större organismer såsom daggmaskar. Tillsammans utför dessa viktiga funktioner i marken som är avgöraThis field study was done to get an understanding of how the agricultural method called “structural liming” might affect soil organisms in a negative way. Soil organisms are crucial as they perform biological processes that improve good soil structure. This is important as it enables sustainable food production, today, and in the future. Structural liming is used on clay soils to improve soil stru

Måltidsplanering för storkök, så som skolor och äldreboenden, är en mödosam och tidsödande process. Då det finns många olika villkor och restriktioner som måste beaktas i planeringen, dessa kommer i form av en budget, näringsinnehåll, tillgängliga resurser för tillagning och förvaring etc. Detta leder ofta till en slumpartad "prova sig fram"-teknik när en ny matsedel ska skapas. Likväl fTraditional meal planning for large kitchens is a laborious and complex affair with multiple external constraints imposed on the meal plan, such as a healthy nutrition profile and a low environmental impact, which should be fulfilled while being under budget. This is a tough task for humans but by modelling the process with a Markov Decision Process and using Reinforcement Learning an agent can be
