1. 1. Fixed mandibular retainers : a controlled 12-year follow-up

   Författare :Ulrike Schütz-Fransson; Malmö universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Irregularity Index; Long-term stability; Relapse; Orthodontic retainers; Adolescent; Child; Device Removal; Female; Follow-Up Studies; Humans; Incisor; Male; Malocclusion; Mandible; Orthodontic Retainers; Recurrence; Risk Factors; Treatment Outcome;

   Sammanfattning : Fixed retainer after orthodontic treatment is an increasing retention appliance. For the mandibular incisors there are two different fixed retainers that are commonly used, either a canine-to-canine retainer bonded only to the canines or a twistflex retainer bonded to each of the mandibular incisors and canines.

4. 3. Internal fixation of femoral neck fractures

   Författare :Leif Hernefalk; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Femoral neck fracture; osteotomy; internal fixation; device; technical principles; scintimetry; radiography; biomechanics; malposition; malreduction; complications; bone necrosis; revascularization; segmental collapse; non-union; elderly; osteoporosis; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Sammanfattning : The incidence of femoral neck fractures in elderly people is rising requiring large health care resources. Internal fixation of the fracture is the treatment of choice in Scandinavia, but in 20-40% of the cases a late complication such as a segmental collapse of the femoral head after initial bone necrosis, or a non-union of the fracture because of non-healing, will occur.

5. 4. Acoustic modelling and testing of advanced exhaust system components for automotive engines

   Författare :Sabry Allam; Hand Bodén; Antonio Torregrosa; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Theoretical physics; acoustic modelling; testing; two-port; diesel particulate filter; after treatment device; Teoretisk fysik; Physics; Fysik;

   Sammanfattning : The increased use of the diesel engine in the passenger car, truck and bus market is due to high efficiency and lower fuel costs. This growing market share has brought with it several environmental issues for instance soot particle emission. LÄS MER

7. 5. Inhaled pharmacological treatment and critical inhaler technique errors in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

   Författare :Johanna Sulku; Elisabet I. Nielsen; Alf Tunsäter; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; COPD; critical inhaler technique error; pharmacological treatment; ICS; inhaled corticosteroid; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

   Sammanfattning : Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an inflammatory lung disease characterised by persistent respiratory symptoms and a high risk of exacerbations. Preventive and maintenance pharmacological treatment is primarily administered through handheld inhalers, which are available in several different device-drug combinations. LÄS MER
