During two consecutive years 607 individuals with lower limb fractures were diagnosed. Half of the individuals, 315, were women and only 14 of them had an earlier registration for alcoholism. In the 292 men, however, 73 men or 25%, had been registered at the Department of Alcohol Diseases at least once during the 13 years of observation, the highest registration frequency (30%) was noted in the ma

With a new surgical instrument, a haemostatic dissecting tool driven by ultrasonic energy, different surgical procedures is described within the neck, the chest, and abdomen both for open and laparo- and thoracoscopic procedures. Also orthopedic procedures are described. I also wrote the chapter 5: Esophageal resection with the Ultracision blade and shears.
In recent years, there has been growing interest in stabilized index reduction techniques for differential-algebraic equations (DAE) of multibody dynamics. A number of the proposals which incorporate the idea of a projection onto the constraint manifold are discussed. The methods are divided into classes based on whether the projection is performed on the residuals of the discretized DAE or on the
Fuel cells are promising for future energy systems, since they are energy efficient and, when hydrogen is used as fuel, there are no emissions of greenhouse gases. Fuel cells have during recent years various improvements, however the technology is still in the early phases of development, this can be noted by the lack of dominant design both for singe fuel cells, stacks and for entire fuel cell sy
Stochastic processes are indispensable tools for development and research in signal and image processing, automatic control, oceanography, structural reliability, environmetrics, climatology, econometrics, and many other areas of science and engineering. Suitable for a one-semester course, Stationary Stochastic Processes for Scientists and Engineers teaches students how to use these processes effi
The influence of supranational regimes has dramatically increased in the last decades. How this influence is manifested and which consequences it has had and continues to have on education is discussed in this paper. More specifically, the paper highlights lifelong learning and the Bologna process seen as projects, the explicit aims of which starkly contrast to their effects on such vital issues a
Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling beskriver tillverkning av partiklar av metaller och halvledare samt dessas användning i nya typer av elektroniska komponenter och nanostrukturer. Partiklarna tillverkas med aerosolteknik, dels med kända metoder och dels med nyutvecklade. Partiklarna är mellan 5 och 80 nanometer (miljarddels meter) i diameter, och deras bildning, struktur och sammansättnAerosol technology was used to develop new methods for fabrication of size-selected, nanometer-sized particles of metals and semiconductors. Such particles were used to realize different types of quantum devices and nanometer-sized structures. The thesis contains an introduction, five papers on particle fabrication, and five papers on particle-based quantum devices. Size-selected gallium and indi
Purpose To explore the effect of high-dose ifosfamide in first-line treatment for patients <= 40 years of age with nonmetastatic osteosarcoma of the extremity. Patients and Methods From March 1997 to September 2000, 182 patients were evaluated. Primary treatment consisted of two blocks of high-dose ifosfamide (15 g/m(2)), methotrexate (12 g/m(2)), cisplatin (120 mg/m(2)), and doxorubicin (75 mg/m(
A Surprisingly high degree of structural and compositional dynamics is observed in the system LiBH4-LiCl as a function of temperature and time. Rietveld refinement of synchrotron radiation powder X-ray diffraction (SR-PXD) data reveals that Cl- readily substitutes for BH4- in the Structure of LiBH4. Prolonged heating a sample of LiBH4-LiCl (1:1 molar ratio) above the phase transition temperature a
