Microsoft Word - Hur pålitliga är olika gratisappar för artbestämmning av växter.docx Hur pålitliga är olika gratisappar för artbestämning av växter? Bakgrund Växter skiljer sig stort åt beroende på dess art, men något som de alla har gemensamt är att de utvecklats från encelliga alger, de har alltså en gemensam föregångare. Man har delat upp växterna i olika grupper baserat på egenskaper, utseend
Background: Two new pneumococcal conjugate vaccines were licensed to immunize infants and young children against pneumococcal disease. Objectives: The objective of this study was to estimate the expected health benefits, costs, and incremental cost-effectiveness of routine vaccination with the 10-valent pneumococcal nontypeable hemophilus influenza protein-D conjugate vaccine (PHiD-CV) compared wi
Objectives: The aim of this study was to estimate the cost-effectiveness of rituximab in patients not responding adequately to the first tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor using a model constructed to predict resource consumption and health outcomes in a population-based registry of biological treatments in Southern Sweden (SSATG). Methods: The model was developed as a discrete event simulation
To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of an additional 12-week treatment with varenicline for abstainers who had successfully completed an initial 12-week treatment. The Benefits of Smoking Cessation on Outcomes simulation model was used to simulate both direct and indirect effects of smoking cessation. All calculations were performed in 2003 Swedish prices. Sweden in 2003. The modelled cohort consis
Rationale and Objectives. The purposes of this study were to retrospectively identify various etiologies underlying intracranial hemorrhages (ICHs) in term infants aged <2 years and their respective prevalence in this population and to describe the long-term clinical outcomes in these patients. Materials and Methods. A retrospective review of the medical records and computed tomographic studies of
This chapter reassesses the modernization processes at work in Republican China during the Warlord period between 1911 and 1927 by focusing on corporate, public action by non-state interest groups and organizations. In particular, it looks at modes of corporate governing at the interface of business/economy and education: the realm of vocational education. The chapter examines a particularly illum
This text is an analysis of the reception of Steven Spielberg´s film Schindler´s List in the Czech Republic. Being a Sudeten German, Oskar Schindler, the hero of the film and the rescuer of hundreds of Jews from the Nazi destruction machinery, made Czechs aware not only or primarily of the atrocities of the Holocaust, but of several Czech-German troublespots of the past, including those related to
OBJECTIVES: To estimate the total direct medical costs to society for patients with type 2 diabetes in Sweden and to investigate how different factors, for example diabetic late complications, affect costs. DESIGN: Cross-sectional data regarding health care utilization, clinical characteristics and quality of life, were collected at a single time-point. Data on resource use cover the 6-month perio
This paper presents a deep learning algorithm for tomographic reconstruction (GANrec). The algorithm uses a generative adversarial network (GAN) to solve the inverse of the Radon transform directly. It works for independent sinograms without additional training steps. The GAN has been developed to fit the input sinogram with the model sinogram generated from the predicted reconstruction. Good qual
Background: Previous research has revealed a clear relationship between weight gain of persons and their metabolic diseases developing later. These studies have covered only short periods lasting 4–8 years. Our goal was to collect decades’ old and often life-long anthropometric data and correlate the figures with the presence of hypertension and diabetes or both. Methods: A retrospective internat
Aggregates cytotoxie for human cells in vitro were produced when adenovirus type 5 was mixed with homotypic rabbit antiserum against whole virus particles at a certain restricted virus-antibody ratio. The same degree of cytotoxicity was obtained with mixtures of the virus and an antiserum against purified fibres of adenovirus type 5 at a certain proportion. The cytotoxicity could be neutralized by
Peer support workers are increasingly considered an essential ingredient in recovery-oriented mental health services. While research continues to point to promising results concerning the ability of these workers to positively impact service users’ experience of hope, quality of life and even health, peer support workers have only recently been introduced in Sweden and the aim of this study was to
Climate during the Last Interglacial period (LIG, Marine Isotope Stage 5e) was on average warmer than the present, with a higher global sea level but also more unstable conditions. Today, the Baltic Sea interacts strongly with conditions in the North Atlantic region, and this interaction was likely even stronger during the LIG. We here present a reconstruction of seawater conditions during the LIG
Wildfires in wildland-urban interface (WUI) areas present significant threats, especially to populations unprepared for emergency situations. Effective emergency strategies must consider human behaviour, and decision-making processes. Tourists, often unfamiliar with wildfire risks, face unique challenges in evacuation, requiring tailored strategies. Cross-border regions with diverse cultures and l
To overview banks, repositories and registries of stem cell lines in Europe excluding bone marrow and cord blood banks; to concisely discuss the most important scientific, regulatory and ethical aspects of stem cell banking in a manner understandable to a layperson, but remain detailed enough not to compromise thoroughness of information. Review of scientific publications, laws and ethical guideli
