Improvement of structural efficiency in metals by the control of topological arrangements in ultrafine and coarse grains

Improvement of structural efficiency in various materials is critically important for sustainable society development and the efficient use of natural resources. Recently, a lot of attention in science and engineering has been attracted to heterogeneous-structure materials because of high structural efficiency. However, strategies for the efficient design of heterogenous structures are still in th

Professionals’ expectations and preparedness to implement knowledge-based palliative care at nursing homes before an educational intervention : A focus group interview study

The provision of knowledge-based palliative care is rare in nursing homes. There are obstacles to practically performing this because it can be difficult to identify when the final stage of life begins for older persons. Educational interventions in palliative care in nursing homes are a challenge, and joint efforts are needed in an organisation, including preparedness. The aim was to explore prof

Heparin-binding protein is significantly increased in acute pancreatitis

BACKGROUND: Most patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) experience mild, self-limiting disease with little or no need for hospital care. However, 20-25% of patients develop a more severe and potentially life-threatening condition with progressive systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and multiorgan failure, resulting in high morbidity and mortality rates. Predicting disease severity at an

Prurigo Simplex or "Itchy Red Bump" Disease : Review and Case Series

Prurigo simplex or "itchy red bump" disease is a pruritic papular eruption. The objective of this study was to delineate the diagnostic criteria for this disease. A PubMed search was performed for: "prurigo simplex", "prurigo simplex subacuta", "subacute prurigo", "chronic papular dermatitis in adults" and "itchy red bump disease". Medical charts of patients with prurigo diagnoses in a university

Child suicides in Sweden, 2000–2018

Although child mortality is decreasing in Sweden, an increase in suicide rates has been previously observed among children and adolescents collectively. To increase knowledge about trends, demographics, and means in child suicides, data including all child (< 18 years) suicides in Sweden in 2000 through 2018 were retrieved from the Swedish National Board of Forensic Medicine. In all, a total of 41
