Hip fractures are of major concern worldwide, but even if literature isabundant, there are still gaps to fill. The global outcome needs to be betterunderstood, including patient-reported outcome. Many studies focus onimproving surgical outcome, with less focus on medical complications. Thetrue number of adverse events after hip fracture surgery is unknown. Femoralneck fractures (FNFs), constitutin

Resistivity measurements in marine environments have already been tested in Norwegian landscapes in in the detection of subsea fracture zones (Lile et al. 1994; Dalsegg, 2012). Yet, most of the produced data have been processed without taking into account the special conditions created by the presence of seawater. Similar studies outside of Norway (Tsourlos et al., 2001; Satriani et al., 2011; Ruc

Ethyl 2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane-2-acetate (CAS # 6413-10-1) was evaluated for genotoxicity, repeated dose toxicity, reproductive toxicity, local respiratory toxicity, phototoxicity/photoallergenicity, skin sensitization, and environmental safety. Data show that ethyl 2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane-2-acetate is not genotoxic. Data from ethyl 2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane-2-acetate show that there are no safety conce

Blixtar. Svarta prickar, spindelben och dimmoln. Rörliga grumlingar framför ögat och liknade symptom drabbar varje dag många svenskar. Oftast är symptomen helt ofarliga men de kan också tyda på begynnande näthinneavlossning, vilket i värsta fall kan leda till blindhet.Näthinneavlossning börjar i de flesta fall med en s.k glaskroppsavlossning. Detta tillstånd innebär att glaskroppen, den geléartadeBlindness and visual disability are common following vitreoretinal pathologies such as open globe injury, proliferative diabetic retinopathy, and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). These conditions often necessitate surgical intervention using vitrectomy with a tamponading vitreous substitute. However, current tamponades are all associated with complications such as inflammation, cataract, g

Every type of reality belongs to the semiotic realm and this means that every being is in constant need of translation and interpretation. What we mostly translate are signs and that is why this book envisages interpreting the morphotic nature of signs. In spite of Roman Jakobson having outlined the impossibility of full equivalence between code-units, the same theoretician admitted to paraphrasin

This paper elucidates a disciplinary context for an emergent buildingtype dubbed Accessory Dwelling Unit, or ADU. Today, ADU developmentsadd density to metropolitan Los Angeles by undermining the low densityprinciples of single-family residential zoning. Surfacing withinthe jurisdiction formally known as the City of Los Angeles, the ADUsupplements city planning in the transformation of suburbia. T

The overall system performance of massive MIMO is improved by equipping user terminals with multiple antennas. In this paper, we investigate transceiver designs for the case of a single downlink stream and in particular, we study the uplink pilot design. Moreover, we study the consequences of channel estimation errors at the base-station, and to what extent a dual-antenna terminal can get access t

Most patients with anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease present with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis with or without pulmonary haemorrhage; however, there are several variants and vigilance is necessary to make a correct diagnosis. Such variants include overlap with anti-neutrophil cytoplasm antibodies-associated vasculitis and membranous nephropathy as well as anti-GBM occu

BACKGROUND: Women with history of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) are at increased risk of early onset cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes (T2D). We aimed to investigate the extent to which HDP is also associated with midlife development of T2D and hypertension above and beyond established risk factors.METHODS: We included parous women who attended population-based structured clin

“Mixing Metaphor” is a compilation of 12 chapters by prominent researchers, introduced by Raymond Gibbs, one of the main actors in the eld of metaphor studies. It is a highly timely contribution that lls a gap between the pre-theoret- ical notion of ‘mixed metaphors’, largely known to the (English-speaking) pub- lic as something to be avoided as it re ects poor style or even sloppy thinking, and s

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune bullous disease, associated with autoantibodies directed against the hemidesmosomal components BP180 and BP230. In this study for the first time different laboratories have analyzed the autoantibody profile in the same group of 49 prospectively recruited BP patients. The results show that: 1) disease severity and activity correlated with levels of IgG again

Jag vill gärna avsluta med att citera psykiatrikern David Eberhard som i sin bok ”Det stora könsexperimentet" förklarar problemet med klagomålen kring Hesslow mycket väl: ”I dagens genusteoretiska värld tycks inte ens biologi existera. Man har helt enkelt valt bort den”.A debate article on the discussions at Lund University regarding Professor Germund Hesslow and his lecture regarding sexuality.

Both animal and human data indicate that reproductive events taking place early in reproductive life may have an important influence on growth characteristics and reproductive hormone regulation in both normal tissue and neoplastic tissue investigated later in life.
