Purpose: The aim was to report cumulative incidence and time of onset of postoperative glaucoma in a paediatric early cataract surgery cohort. Methods: Data were retrieved from the Pediatric Cataract Register (PECARE), a prospective register of Swedish cataract operations before 8 years of age. All eyes with surgery between January 2007 and December 2014 and a registered follow-up were included. C

Noninvasive methods for the characterization of shallow subsurface have been used routinely for some 20–30 years. The growth in these methods has been driven by a variety of breakthroughs in the use of electrical, electromagnetic, and seismic methods, to mention only the most common techniques. Increasing field capabilities and computational power have yet to yield all their potential fruits. In t

Volatile compounds emitted by bacteria are often sensed by other organisms as odours, but their ecological roles are poorly understood1,2. Well-known examples are the soil-smelling terpenoids geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB)3,4, which humans and various animals sense at extremely low concentrations5,6. The conservation of geosmin biosynthesis genes among virtually all species of Streptomyces

Purpose: Age and etiology play a crucial role in success of endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) as a treatment of obstructive hydrocephalus. Outcome is worse in infants, and controversies still exist whether ETV is superior to shunt placement. We retrospectively analyzed 70 patients below 2 years from 4 different centers treated with ETV and assessed success. Methods: Children < 2 years who rec

Objective: To investigate the cross-sectional associations between depression in people with dementia and both caregiver burden and quality of life in 8 European countries, and to test these associations compared with the presence of other neuropsychiatric symptoms. Design: Cross-sectional study. Setting and Participants: In total, 1223 dyads comprised of informal caregivers and people with dement

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
