To assess burden in the caregivers of patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) 1 year postinjury, related to caregiver's demographic data and social network, patient's demographic data, injury severity, and functional status.

En bok om kvinnors kamp för myndighet under 1800-talet, gestaltad genom nio enskilda fall, i relief mot en större undersökning av myndighetsansökningar.

Vid nya Barnkliniken, Universitetssjukhuset i Lund provades fuktprofil och emissioner samtidigt i full skala på golvsystem med högaktuella material såsom linoleum, PVC- och gummimatta. Emissionsmätningarna utfördes vid Statens Provnings- och Forskningsinstitut, Borås medan fukt mättes vid LTH Byggnadsmaterial, Lund, 1999-2000. Provningsresultatet visar att det just nu saknas relevanta alternativ t

Encephalitis is one of the manifestations of infection with Epstein-Barr virus with clinical outcome varying from complete recovery to death. A 16-year-old boy with Epstein-Barr virus encephalitis with global cortical and subcortical gray matter involvement and a full clinical recovery is reported. The case inspired a literature review which yielded 100 cases of Epstein-Barr virus encephalitis sub

Med en enkel dynamisk modell analyseras nattsänkning. Författaren drar slutsatserna att nattsänkning ger små besparingar som också kan uppnås genom sänkning av framledningstemperaturen, vidare att nattsänkning och dag/nattaxa är i konflikt med varandra.

BACKGROUND: We still lack comparing data of the plasma volume (PV)-expanding effect of the most commonly used colloids including dextran 70. This study compares the PV-expanding effects of 6% dextran 70, 5% albumin, and 6% hydroxyethylstarch (HES) 130/0.4 after a standardized hemorrhage. METHODS: The prospective and randomized study on 33 anesthetized adult male guinea pigs involved three groups (

OBJECTIVES: To determine the ability to correctly identify Cesarean section scars, to estimate the prevalence of defective scars, and to determine the size and location of scar defects by transvaginal ultrasound imaging. METHODS: Two hundred and eighty-seven women underwent transvaginal ultrasound examination 6-9 months after delivery: 108 had undergone one Cesarean section, 43 had had two Cesarea

In a laboratory investigation using tunable picosecond lasers in a pump-probe configuration, lifetimes of the E (II)-I-1, v = O and v = 1 states of CO are experimentally determined. For E (II)-I-1, v = 1, the lifetime is found to vary significantly for the isotopomers. Combining the data with existing oscillator strengths, predissociation probabilities within the range of 93.6%-98.64% result for (

We develop an approximation for the optical potential in a solid, valid at intermediate energies, i.e. energies greater than 50 eV. The present approximation for the optical potential builds on the GW-expression. We separate the RPA polarization propagator into a core electron and a valence electron, and can then achieve a corresponding separation of the optical potential. We apply this method to
