Background: It is mandatory for staff in Swedish community services for people with intellectual disabilities to report incidents of error or malpractice. Aim: The aim is to study if incident reports contribute to developing quality in services for people with intellectual disabilities who present with challenging behaviours. Method: 159 reports on incidents from group homes and daily activities s

Homografts have long been used for right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) reconstruction. Tissue banks struggle to meet the clinical demand of tissue, with insufficient donor availability and strict recommendations on tissue quality with high proportions of discards. This study analyzes the long-term outcome of patients receiving a homograft with small fenestrations of the cusps or other structura

E-handeln ökar snabbare än någonsin vilket medför en mängd hållbarhetsutmaningar för hela samhället. För att nå de globala målen råder inget tvivel om att vi behöver transformera e-handel till ett hållbart system. Likaså vet vi att kunskap och innovation är avgörande för att ge sig på denna komplexa samhällsutmaning. Men vilka områden behövs förändras för att åstadkomma stor effekt på hela systeme

Background. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex heterogeneous disorder affecting multiple organs. Gene expression studies in organs central to T2D, such as pancreatic islets and skeletal muscle will help elucidate and disentangle molecular mechanisms underlying T2D. Deep phenotyping using commonly measured clinical variables allows for the identification of clinically relevant T2D subgroups, repres

A long line of contemporary studies of religion in South East Europe links resurgent nationalism together with the revival of religion. These studies argue that the new nations and the nationhood of these states are grounded on an ideological use of religion and especially the Orthodox Churches. This type of argument has become a key feature of social scientific studies of religion, as Daniela Kal

One of the central linages in Turkish Sufism was the Ottoman promoted Bektashi Order, closely connected to the Janissary corps. Nowadays the tradition is often labeled as a ‘popular Sufism’, without any discussion of what that concept means and the contradictions between folk religion and Sufism in general. This article concerns the question of what constitutes popular Sufism and how it is express

In this paper, we extend the generalized SPICE estimator to the multichannel case, illustrating the resulting performance gain for direction of arrival estimation. The resulting estimator is found to offer improved estimation performance and robustness to the presence of correlated sources.

The Danish religious landscape has been significantly transformed, especially during the last three decades. This transformation is marked by the shift from near religious hegemony towards a much more diverse religious population. Originally, the Danish Lutheran state church was closely intertwined with the governmental administration of the country after the reformation in Denmark of 1536 and the

Vertical nanowire MOSFETs exhibit asymmetric gate capacitances, allowing for their independent engineering to improve device high frequency performance. Minimizing gate-drain parasitic capacitance with the use of a vertical sidewall spacer enables universal feedback neutralization and a unilateral circuit design. For vertical spacer thickness above 20 nm, the gate-drain capacitance variability is

In the post-communist era from 1989 onwards, Eastern Europe has seen a number of conflicts between various national, political, and, to a large extent, religious groups. A common theme throughout all of these conflicts has been the crucial role that religion—often Eastern Orthodox Christianity—and nationalism have played (see Merdjanova, 2000; Payne, 2007).

BACKGROUND: Healthcare environment can affect health. Adverse events (AEs) are common because rapid changes in the patients' status can suddenly arise, and have serious consequences, especially in intensive care. The relationship between the design of intensive care units (ICUs) and AEs has not been fully explored. Hence, an intensive care room was refurbished with cyclic lightning, sound absorben

ObjectiveTo explore critical care nurses’ lived experiences of transferring intensive care patients between hospitals.MethodsA phenomenological hermeneutic approach using data generated through individual interviews with 11 critical care registered nurses.SettingTwo general intensive care units in Sweden.FindingsFive themes were identified: it depends on me; your care makes a difference; being exp

The healthcare environment may seem frightening and overwhelming in times when life-threatening conditions affect a family member or close friend and individuals visit the patient in an ICU. A two-bed patient room was refurbished to enhance the well-being of patients and their families according to the principles of evidence-based design (EBD). No prior research has used the Person-centred Climate

Purpose: This discussion paper aims to contribute to a greater understanding of the state of the art of research engaged with conceptual matters of space and place for health and care. Method: The authors, who represent a variety of academic disciplines, discuss and demonstrate the conceptual recognition of space and place in research in health and caring sciences building upon own work and experi
