Digitaliseringen är inte bara en teknikfråga, utan bör handla om hur verktygen ska användas. Det menar Carola Aili, lektor i pedagogik vid Lunds universitet, i en kommentar till Darja Isaksson som tidigare intervjuats i Curie. Studenterna behöver kompetens att hantera frågor om IT-stöd i sin kommande yrkesutövning.
Background: Long waiting times have been a significant problem in theSwedish health care system. A lack of matching of pathways of care has ledto long waiting times for patients, increasing medical risk and contributingtowards less effective capacity utilisation. There are different pathways into theelective healthcare system in Sweden, some via referral from a physician andothers via referral wri
This dissertation firstly produces new financial series on money and bankassets which are consistent with current definitions for the UK for the crisisrich period 1840-80 and new monetary aggregates for Ireland from prefamine to independence (1840-1921). By employing the new data, cyclicaland seasonal analysis are conducted to shed light on the business cyclesand financial crises of the period. Se
The mechanical failure of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) components may cause cracks with consequences such as gas leakage, structure instability and reduction of cell lifetime. A comprehensive 3D model of the thermal stresses of an anode-supported planar SOFC is presented in this work. The main objective of this paper is to get an interconnect optimized design by evaluating the thermal stresses of
A mechanical failure of a single component is sufficient to cause a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) breakdown. As an unfavorable issue for interfering the stable operation of SOFCs, thermal stress stemming from temperature gradient and mechanical mismatch can result in crack damage. Therefore, it is strongly significant to clarify the relationship of mechanical properties of the cell materials with dA mechanical failure of a single component is sufficient to cause a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) breakdown.

The PEFC has emerged as the most viable fuel cell type for automotive and some portable applications, and also has potential back-up power unit applications due to its low operating temperature, comparative simplicity of construction, high power density, and ease of operation. In spite of tremendous scientific advances, as well as engineering progress over the last few decades, the commercializati
Floran i den sydvästligaste delen av Västaustralien är idag internationellt utmärkt somen Biodiversity Hotspot, dvs. ett område som måste bevaras för omvärlden på grundav sin unika artrikedom och höga andel endemiska arter.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Diabetes is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this review is to discuss possible mechanisms through which diabetes can contribute to a more aggressive atherosclerotic disease process with a particular focus on the role of innate and adaptive immunity. RECENT FINDINGS: The observation that adaptive immune responses to oxidized LDL modula
Major intrinsic proteins (MIPs) facilitate the passive transport of small polar molecules across membranes. MIPs constitute a very old family of proteins and different forms have been found in all kinds of living organisms, including bacteria, fungi, animals, and plants. In the genomic sequence of Arabidopsis, we have identified 35 different MIP-encoding genes. Based on sequence similarity, these
The Variation Ontology (VariO) is used for describing and annotating types, effects, consequences and mechanisms of variations. To facilitate easy and consistent annotations, the online application VariOtator was developed. For variation type annotations VariOtator is fully automated, accepting variant descriptions in Human Genome Variation Society (HGVS) format, and generating VariO terms, either
Although the clinical manifestations of type 2 diabetic nephropathy and decline in kidney function are similar to those in type 1, the clinical course and the renal structural changes are more heterogeneous in type 2 diabetic patients. Previous studies have shown that an increased urine IgM excretion in patients with type 1 diabetic nephropathy was associated with poor outcome. In the present foll
The modified Graeb Scale (mGS) is a semi-quantitative method to assess the extension of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The mGS has been shown to prognosticate outcome after ICH in cohorts derived from convenience samples. We evaluated the external validity of mGS in supratentorial ICH-patients from an unselected cohort.
OBJECTIVE: To use self-reported disability (Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire [RMDQ]) to assess the criterion validity of straight leg raising (SLR) test and flexion range of motion (ROM) (fingertip-to-floor test) before and after stratification by sex and presence/absence of radicular pain. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. SETTING: Outpatient physical therapy clinic. PARTICIPANTS: Subjects wit
