The article aims at making visible new orders of encyclopaedic knowledge by means of an ethnographic study carried out during eight months at the editorial office of the leading commercial encyclopaedia in Sweden, Nationalencyklopedin. The investigation is framed in a socio-technical understanding of how people, technologies and practices relate to each other. Three themes were identified during t

Early or delayed onset of oral anticoagulant therapy in patients with acute ischemic stroke with atrial fibrillation is an unsolved issue. Retrospectively, 294 patient records at two hospitals were scrutinized according to a protocol consisting of 20 items regarding choice of therapy (warfarin or NOAC), time for onset of therapy, CT findings of bleeding, capacity to swallow, and occurrence of clin

comparatively stringent mathematical frame has been developed, where the behaviour of physical dimensions (like ``length'', ``mass'', and ``time'') and physical units (like 1 m [1 metre], 1 kg [1 kilogramme], and 1 s [1 second]) is modelled. Easy-to-apply conditions for additivity and multiplicativity of physcial matrices are presented. Precise meanings of physically dimensional random variables,

The use of this material under current use conditions is supported by the existing information. This material was evaluated for Genotoxicity, Repeated Dose Toxicity, Developmental Toxicity, Reproductive Toxicity, Local Respiratory Toxicity, Phototoxicity, Skin Sensitization potential as well as Environmental assessment. Reproductive toxicity was based on the Threshold of Toxicological Concern (TTC

BACKGROUND: The first aim of this study was to analyze whether self-reported satisfaction with one's sexual life was associated with ethnicity (Swedish and Assyrian/Syrian) in patients with type 2 diabetes. The second was to study whether the association between satisfaction with one's sexual life and ethnicity remained after controlling for possible confounders such as marital status, HbA1c, medi

The clinical onset of type 1 diabetes or autoimmune diabetes occurs after a prodrome of islet autoimmunity. The warning signals for the ensuing loss of pancreatic islet beta cells are autoantibodies against insulin, GAD65, IA-2, and ZnT8, alone or in combinations. Autoantibodies against e.g. insulin alone have only a minor risk for type 1 diabetes. However, progression to clinical onset is increas

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur hade vår värld sett ut utan den teknologiska revolutionen som skett de senaste decennierna? Inget internet, inga mobiltelefoner, inga surfplattor? Drivkraften bakom att det hela är en väldigt liten beståndsdel som sitter i nästan all elektronik, den så kallade transistorn. En transistor kan se lite olika ut men är i stora drag en elektrisk komponent där man styr strThis thesis explores several novel material systems and innovative device concepts enabled by nanowire technology. State-of-the-art fabrication techniques such as electron beam lithography and atomic layer deposition are utilized to achieve high control and quality in the device fabrication. The devices in this thesis are based on two main types of design geometries, lateral and vertical, each of
