BACKGROUND: For 40 years cricoid pressure has been used to prevent regurgitation of gastric contents during induction of anaesthesia. Recent studies have emphasised use of more moderate force so as not to deteriorate ventilation or endotracheal intubation. This study was undertaken to assess the current practice and knowledge of cricoid pressure among anaesthesia personnel in southern Sweden. METH
Popular Abstract in English In Mozambique, many wild fruit species occur naturally in forest environments. Most of the wild fruits are consumed fresh because of their short shelf-life when ripe. Forests play an important role in rural communities as a source of food and medicinal and social/cultural services and also provide a source of income when fruits are sold at local markets. Some parts of MVangueria infausta (African medlar) is a wild fruit found in southern and central Mozambique. The ripe fruit has a leathery skin enclosing three to five seeds embedded in a soft pulp that tastes like apple. It plays an important role in the diet of the rural population and has the potential for commercial use. The fruit is mostly eaten fresh, and sometimes mixed with porridges, but in some parts
This thesis first and foremost analyzes and compares Hamas and Fatah's political documents from 2005 and 2009 respectively, and how Israel is portrayed as the enemy in these documents. The theoretical framework focuses on enemy images, but also includes concepts such as national identity, intractable conflicts, intergroup relations and the Other. These concepts are necessary to broaden my anal
The purpose of this study is to explore the effects of vertical brand extensions on consumer perceptions and brand equity. The aim of this study is to take a strategic brand management perspective in order to answer two research questions: How does a vertical brand extension affect the brand? How does a vertical brand extension affect consumer perceptions of the core brand? The main finding in thi
Artikeln utgår från Magnus Perssons studie av legitimeringar i svenska läroplaner i "Varför läsa litteratur" (2007) och gör motsvarande undersökning av de ryska läroplaner som publicerats sedan 1991. Legitimeringar har extraherats ur läroplaner från 1997 och 2004. Dessa delas sedan in i kategorierna individcentrerade, samhällscentrerade och litteraturcentrerade. Legitimeringarna fördelade sig förh
Syftet med uppsatsen är att belysa invandrade akademikers svårigheter på den svenska arbetsmarknaden och empirin består av sex intervjuer; varav fem arbetsförmedlare och en introduktionsförmedlare. Frågeställningen lyder: Vilka hinder finns och hur ser situationen ut på den svenska arbetsmarknaden för invandrade akademiker? Jag använder mig av empirin som består av intervjuer och belyser den med

Distinctive new features of the Egyptian bureaucracy have followed the process of economic liberalization and privatization that began in 1991. The Egyptian bureaucracy is excessively large and suffers from inefficiencies and low capacity, but dealing with prioritized policy areas, such as privatization, experts have been recruited to so called “Technical Offices” that are closely tied to the cabi
Scientific abstract: The study set out to investigate diurnal patterns in methane flux in a fen in Kobbefjord, Southwest Greenland and to link these to physical and biological parameters in the environment. Methane flux was measured using six chambers which recorded the flux every ten minutes from spring to autumn. Methane flux data from 2009 and 2010 were compared to photosynthetically active radA study of diurnal variations in methane flux in a fen in Kobbefjord in Southwest Greenland is presented. Four separate periods, each of one week, from the growing seasons of 2009 and 2010 were chosen. Methane flux data were compared to surface temperature, soil temperature and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). Regression tests between surface temperature and methane flux produced highly
This study compiles a total of five statistical models of how to predict the probable outcome in football games in the German football league, the Bundesliga. The models are based on quantitative historical data from 1683 games and estimate probabilities of the outcomes home win (1), draw (X) and away win (2). The purpose of the study is to test whether a more accurate prediction can be formulated
Abstract: Avian long-distance migration as an adaptation to spatiotemporally changing resources is a complex evolutionary trait shaped by various endo- and exogenous factors. Descriptive studies of migratory journeys provide direct investigations of migratory parameters and these often set the basis for fun-damental follow-up studies on the eco-evolutionary principles. In this study, male Great
According to the curriculum of the preschool, one of it's purposes is to work with equality, and to challenge traditional gender roles. Despite this, many preschools still lack active work with gender/equality – the difference amongst pre-schools is sometimes extreme. I tried to find elements that influence preschool teachers to choose to work with gender and equality. Some of these elements a
Den iranska staden Bam drabbades av en kraftig och ödesdiger jordbävning den 26 december 2003 som resulterade i att hela staden ödelades och tiotusentals av stadens invånare omkom. Det faktum att jordbävningen inträffade 05.26 på morgonen i kombination med traditionellt byggda bostadshus med lera som huvudmaterial var de främsta anledningarna till den höga dödssiffran och förstörelsen i staden. Ok
