BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Identifying the haemodynamic mechanism of autonomic syncope is the essential pre-requisite for effective and personalized therapy aimed at preventing recurrences. The present study assessed the diagnostic efficacy of a two-step assessment.METHODS: Multicentre prospective, cross-sectional, observational study. Patients affected by severe autonomic syncope underwent a two-step a
Controlling the surface morphology and chemical interaction is necessary for the development of advanced quantummaterials, particularly in low-dimensional systems. As the research increasingly focuses on miniature and nanoscaletechnologies, a fundamental understanding of localized or interface states becomes essential for successful integrationinto functional devices. This thesis investigates atom
The relationship between Church of Sweden’s diocese of Lund and the Evangelical Church of the Church Province of Saxony in the German Democratic Republic started in 1983 and came to an end with the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989. The exchange-based relationship between the two churches started with a request from the church in East Germany, searching for allies and ecumenical contacts in Western
Rekryteringen och användandet av barnsoldater regleras bland annat i TP I och II och i barnkonventionen med tillhörande fakultativa protokoll. Dessutom finns en mängd resolutioner från säkerhetsrådet på området. Tillsammans ger dessa instrument barn i väpnad konflikt ett visst skydd. Men fortfarande utnyttjas barn i stor utsträckning i konflikter, både av stater och av icke-statliga grupper. I uThe recruitment and use of child soldiers is regulated in, among other instruments, TP I and II and in the child convention and it’s optional protocols. There are also various resolutions from the security council on the topic. Together these instruments provide children in armed conflict with some protection. Unfortunately, despite the regulations in international law, children are used in confli
Abstract Author: Magnus Andersson Title: Burnout: A study of manager’s comprehension on the subject of burnout Supervisor: Anders Olsson Assessor: Mats Hilte The aim of this study was to examine the unit manager’s comprehension on the problem of burnout. I conducted a qualitative study in which I interviewed five unit managers from different parts of a local municipality. Seven themes were identif
Liberalisation and deregulation of public utility sectors has been introduced in several European countries. In 1994 Swedish municipalities were instructed to reorganise waste collection routines by enlarging the number of fractions to be able to reuse waste fractions in an environmental benign way. The public waste sector have to a considerable extent been diversified and deregulated. At the same
Purpose The research presented is the initial part of a project with the aim of increasing the use of end-user requirement through out the construction process. This initial part maps how Swedish real estate companies manage end-user requirements and evaluate the outcome. Methodological approach The focus of the study was on methods for capturing and managing end-user requirements and for measur
BackgroundThe Externalizing Spectrum Inventory-Brief Form (ESI-BF) [1] is a 160-item self-report instrument designed for the assessment of externalizing psychopathology, yet few studies to date have evaluated its psychometric properties, structural fit, and criterion validity in forensic psychiatric settings.MethodsHere, we investigated these aspects in a sample of forensic psychiatric inpatients
Framväxten av digitala plattformar håller för närvarande på att förändra hur kulturarbete förmedlas och utförs. Trots detta finns det en brist på forskning, inte minst i en svensk kontext, som studerar kulturarbete som ett typexempel på det som kommit att kallas gigarbete. Den här avhandlingen analyserar frilansande kulturarbetares erfarenheter av att navigera den digitala plattformsekonomin för aCultural industries are currently being transformed by processes of platformization and precarization. Despite being among the sectors where platformization has already had the most pronounced effects, there remains a lack of research on cultural work as a prototypical example of so-called gig work. This dissertation analyzes the working experiences of what I call digital freelancers — solo self-e
Background: Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is a rheumatic disorder that causes chronic joint inflammation beginning before the age of 16 years. Pharmacological treatment necessary to prevent joint destruction and functional impairment includes non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), intra-articular corticosteroids, conventional synthetic (cs) disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (D
The purpose of this paper has been to examine the ways in which professionals describe their work with pregnant drug-addicts. The paper raises the following questions; · How does the deviant behavior, that using drugs during pregnancy can be described as, affect the professionals in their work with pregnant drug-addicts? · How do the professionals experience their own role, and the roles of othe
Problem formulation: Traditional accounting and financial reports do not provide sufficient information today. New reports like the Intellectual Capital Statements are one answer to this problem. They systematically report on Intangible Assets that create value in the company. We found that external stakeholders do not use Intellectual Capital Statements in their evaluation processes. This made us
Purpose: This paper aims to focus on academic library managers’ learning practices in the context of cooperative work supported by computational artefacts. Academic library managers’ everyday work is mainly cooperative. Their cooperation is supported predominantly by computational artefacts. Learning how to use the computational artefacts efficiently and effectively involves understanding the chan
Popular Abstract in Swedish Gränsen mellan uppsåt och oaktsamhet har gäckat rättsvetenskap och praktiker under 1900-talet. Åtskilliga gånger har uppsåtsdebattens vågor även gått höga i massmedia. Ett exempel är uppståndelsen över hovrättens dom i det så kallade Klippanmålet. Sedan några år finns också ett förslag från den statliga utredningen, "Straffansvarets gränser", att lösa problemet med lagsThe description and explanation of the determination of mens rea, or fault, in this thesis begins so to speak, at the “shop-floor” of criminal law. The analysis is based on a survey of judgements of the Swedish courts of first instance for the years 1989-1992 in cases involving intentional killing, causing death through recklessness/negligence as well as gross assault, where such offences constitu
We present a new methodology, which we call Single Pair of Observations Technique with Eddy Covariance (SPOT-EC), to estimate regional-scale surface fluxes of 222Rn from tower-based observations of 222Rn activity concentration, CO2 mole fractions and direct CO2 flux measurements from eddy covariance. For specific events, the regional (222Rn) surface flux is calculated from short-term changes in am
Positive pressure ventilation (PPV) has been used by the fire service for a number of years as a procedure to remove smoke and hot gases from a building on fire. PPV is a procedure where air is pushed into a building exposed to fire with the help of fans, consequently pushing hot air and smoke out of the building. This paper summarizes a large number of studies on PPV, draws conclusions from these
