Value Dimensions, Meaning, and Complexity in Human Occupation – A Tentative Structure for Analysis.
In occupational therapy and occupational science, it is important to clarify the perspective from which the analysis of occupation is addressed. The purpose of this paper is to present a tentative structure for describing occupation, allowing for analysis in a lifelong panorama as well as for the immediate experience a person acquires from performing a single occupation. The concept of occupationa
Long-term effects of inflammation-sensitive plasma proteins and systolic blood pressure on incidence of stroke.
Background and Purpose— The present study investigated the relationships between inflammation-sensitive plasma proteins (ISPs) and systolic blood pressure (SBP), as well as the joint long-term effects of ISP and SBP on incidence of stroke. Methods— BP and 5 ISPs (fibrinogen, {alpha}1-antitrypsin, haptoglobin, ceruloplasmin, orosomucoid) were assessed in 6071 healthy men 28 to 61 years of age. All

Rapid refocusing system for the Euro50 telescope aimed at removing the perspective elongation of laser beacons
To obtain full sky coverage, astronomical adaptive optics systemsrequire Na Sodium Beacons (SBs) (also referred to as Laser Guide Starsor LGSs) located at heights extending from 85 to 100 km. When viewed atthe edge of large telescopes these SBs appear elongated. For the Euro5050 meter aperture telescopes this elongation amounts to 6 to 9arcseconds when the laser is launched from a point on the tel
Fruit and vegetable consumption in relation to risk factors for cancer: a report from the Malmo Diet and Cancer Study
OBJECTIVE: To examine the associations between the consumption of fruit and vegetables and other markers of cancer risk. DESIGN: A cross-sectional survey within the population-based prospective Malmo Diet and Cancer (MDC) Study. Information on food habits was collected through the modified diet history method designed and validated for the MDC Study. Data on smoking and alcohol habits, leisure tim

Comparison between comparative tuberculin and gamma-interferon tests for the diagnosis of bovine tuberculosis in Ethiopia
A study to determine and compare the sensitivities and specificities of the comparative cervical tuberculin (CCT) and gamma-interferon (IFN-gamma) tests for the diagnosis of bovine tuberculosis was conducted on 30 zebu oxen. The results of the tests were compared with the presence of acid-fast bacilli found by bacteriological culturing and histopathological examinations. The sensitivity and specif
Effect of cinnamon on postprandial blood glucose, gastric emptying, and satiety in healthy subjects
Background: Previous studies of patients with type 2 diabetes showed that cinnamon lowers fasting serum glucose, triacylglycerol, and LDL- and total cholesterol concentrations. Objective: We aimed to study the effect of cinnamon on the rate of gastric emptying, the postprandial blood glucose response, and satiety in healthy subjects. Design: The gastric emptying rate (GER) was measured by using st

Assessment of groundwater vulnerability in the Rio Artiguas basin, Nicaragua
The Rio Artiguas basin in central Nicaragua shows a distinctive case of environmental deterioration due to anthropogenic activities. Heavy metals used in gold mining and other wastes are continuously released into the rivers, representing a threat to the water quality. This article aims to evaluate the groundwater intrinsic vulnerability in the Rio Artiguas basin and to provide information for sus

First measurement of the helicity-dependent (gamma)over-right-arrow(p)over-right-arrow -> p eta differential cross-section
The helicity dependence of the (γ) over right arrow(p) over right arrow -+ peta reaction has been measured for the first time at a center-of-mass angle theta(eta)*= 70degrees in the photon energy range from 780 MeV to 790 MeV. The experiment, performed at the Mainz microtron MAMI, used a 4pi-detector system, a circularly polarized, tagged photon beam. and a longitudinally polarized frozen-spin tar
Structural information for nanocomposites from measured optical properties
This paper is concerned with the estimation of the volume fraction and the anisotropy of a two- component composite from measured bulk properties. An algorithm that takes into account that measurements have errors is developed. This algorithm is used to study data from experimental measurements for a nanocomposite with an unknown nanostructure. The dependence on the nanostructure is quantified in

Factors influencing organic carbon recycling and burial in Skagerrak sediments
Different factors influencing recycling and burial rates of organic carbon (OC) were investigated in the continental margin sediments of the Skagerrak (NE North Sea). Two different areas, one in the southern and one in the northeastern part of the Skagerrak were visited shortly after a spring bloom (March 1999) and in late summer (August 2000). Results suggested that: (1) Organic carbon oxidation
