The purpose of this article is to highlight the importance of appropriate management of acute orbital trauma, in order to prevent permanent impaired vision and double vision. Orbital blowout fractures with entrapment, so-called trapdoor fractures, occur more often in children than in adults, and require immediate surgical intervention. A blowout fracture with impingement, so-called open door fract

Local coexistence of bees has been explained by flower resource partitioning, but coexisting bumblebee species often have strongly overlapping diets. We investigated if light microhabitat niche separation, underpinned by visual traits, could serve as an alternative mechanism underlying local coexistence of bumblebee species. To this end, we focused on a homogeneous flower resource—bilberry—in a he

Abstract in GreekΠερίληψηΟ Μηχανισμός των Αντικυθήρων αποτελεί ένα μοναδικό εύρημα. Η έρευνά του απασχολεί επιστήμονες προερχόμενους από ένα ευρύ φάσμα ειδικοτήτων και τα αποτελέσματά της φανερώνουν τον ανεπτυγμένο βαθμό της επιστημονικής εξέλιξης της εποχής, που κατασκευάστηκε ο Μηχανισμός, ξαναγράφοντας την ιστορία της τεχνολογίας. Μετά από έναν και πλέον αιώνα από την εύρεση του, αρχαιολόγοι επ

Well-designed block copolymers with a controlled co-continuous microphase morphology can be applied as efficient anion exchange membranes (AEMs) for fuel cells and water electrolyzers. In the present work, we have prepared and studied a series of BAB triblock copolymers consisting of a central cationic polyfluorene A block with flanking hydrophobic polystyrene B blocks, where the fluorene units of

The Antikythera Wreck represents a unique example of implementation and development of technological methods and systems aiding archaeological research. Since 1900, when the wreck was discovered, the challenges posed by the underwater environment and the variety of archaeological data hidden in the multifarious artifacts has been yielding great opportunities for technological innovation. Research

For more than a century the research on the Antikythera Mechanism engaged scientists from a widerange of scientific disciplines searching for clues, in order to solve the mystery that this unique ar-chaeological find poses. The results so far have been spectacular enough to re-write the History ofTechnology providing new aspects on the degree of technological sophistication and scientific de-velop

Shakespeare's Hamlet has been retold in children's versions several times in Sweden in recent years. It was the subject of the first episode of the children's television programme På teatern [At the Theatre], written and directed by Christina Nilsson for SVT in 2001–2002, where Shakespearean actors meet their child or grandchild backstage after a performance to tell and partly enact the story of t

For the first time in the latest Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), water has been the focus of dedicated chapters in both Working Group 1 (Chapter 8) and 2 (Chapter 4). Nevertheless, we argue here that water has not yet received the full attention it deserves from both scientists and policymakers for several reasons. Firstly, the historical focus on tempera

I rapporten underlaget presenteras grundläggande utgångspunkter och verktyg för studier som baseras på kvantitativa metoder. Avsikten är i första hand att komplettera kurslitteraturen på området och visa hur kvantitativa analysmetoder kan nyttjas i samband med socialpolitiskt inriktade studier. Syftet är också att öka kunskapen och förmågan att bearbeta och värdera statistik om sociala förhållande

BACKGROUND: Influenza is a contagious viral airborne disease that adds to the clinical and economic burden on the healthcare system. It could be prevented substantially by seasonal influenza vaccination. Seasonal influenza vaccine effectiveness (SIVE) varies a lot and should therefore be monitored. This report aims to update age-stratified SIVE estimates among patients hospitalized due to severe a

Immigrants from the Middle East to Sweden have a twice as high prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity as native-born Swedes. Both obesity and T2D have been linked to increased incidence of cancer, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality (ACM); however, data on differences between ethnicities are scarce. In a population-based cohort we aimed to study the impact of Middle Easte

The successful management of a childbirth emergency will be dependent on the decision-making of involved obstetricians and gynecologists. Individual differences in decision-making may be explained through personality traits. The objectives of the present study were (I) to describe personality trait levels of obstetricians and gynecologists and (II) to examine the relationship between obstetricians
