Popular Abstract in Swedish Dekompressionssjuka (DCS) är ett tillstånd som kan uppkomma när man utsätts för en hastig sänkning av omgivningstrycket. Bakgrunden till tillståndet är att vävnadslagrad gas frisätts till blodbanan och där på olika sätt kan ge upphov till symptom från lätta hudbesvär till livshotande påverkan på det centrala nervsystemet. Vid atmosfärstryck är gasinnehållet i kroppens vReductions in ambient pressure liberates gas in various tissues and can result in decompression illness. In this thesis the patophysiological implications of a blood gas interface resulting from decompression was investigated with reference to the influence on biochemical mediators of inflammation. In a series of experiments, animals and human subjects have been exposed to hyperbaric trauma of dif

Purpose : This study aimed to describe the development of Arabic and Swedish lexical organisation in bilingual children with language impairment (BLI).

Any perceived human activity is, by definition, also a complex informing system. Human activity systems must continually adapt to their dynamic environments in order to survive. There is therefore a role for deutero-lerning through human sense-making and multiple levels of reflection in bringing this about.

There is a need to identify factors that affect the result of empirical studies in software engineering research. It is still the case that seemingly identical replications of controlled experiments result in different conclusions due to the fact that all factors describing the experiment context are not clearly defined and hence controlled. In this article, a scheme for describing the participant

Based on a survey of research concerning outcomes of sensitivity training and group relations conferences five pre-conditions for menaingful research on outcomes of group relations conferences are presented and discussed.
