    Sammanfattning : Community acquired pneumonia (CAP) is the most commonly occurring infectious disease that requires hospital admission. CAP affects mainly, the youngest, the oldest, the poorest and the sickest. Annual incidence is 5-12 per 1000 adults. Between 20% and 40% of patients with CAP need in-hospital treatment. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Children at risk Securitization theory and special education reforms

    Författare :Helen Dwyer; Anders Gustavsson; Ingrid Hårsman; Ulf Fredriksson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Securitization theory; Special education reform; Education reform; Education policy; specialpedagogik; Special Education;

    Sammanfattning : Special education is to a significant extent based on special education programmes and support to children who are identified as children at risk. These programmes and support are often framed in educational reforms that aim to reduce risk and barriers to equal opportunities for learning and wellbeing. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Dignity in the end of life care : what does it mean to older people and staff in nursing homes?

    Författare :Lise-Lotte Dwyer; Britt-Marie Ternestedt; Lennart Nordenfelt; Ingegerd Fagerberg; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Caring sciences; Vårdvetenskap; Vårdvetenskap; Nursing Science;

    Sammanfattning : The discussion of a palliative care and a dignified death has almost exclusively been applied to people dying of cancer. As people are getting older and are living longer, nursing homes have become an important place for end-of-life care and death. Dignity is a concept often used in health care documents but their meaning is rarely clarified. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Sensors for Water Contamination in Lubricating Grease

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this dissertation is to summarize the research carried out that led to the development of measurement techniques which measure the water content of lubricating grease. Calcium sulphonate complex (CaS-X) grease was used in all experiments for Papers A through E, with some additional greases used in Paper D. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Combustion Valve Wear : A Tribological Study of Combustion Valve Sealing Interfaces

    Författare :Peter Forsberg; Staffan Jacobson; Rob Dwyer-Joyce; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Combustion valves; wear; tribofilm; test rig; combustion residue; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot tribomaterial; Engineering Science with specialization in Tribo Materials;

    Sammanfattning : The exhaust valve system of combustion engines experiences a very complex contact situation of frequent impact involving micro sliding, high and varying temperatures, complex exhaust gas chemistry and possible particulates, etc. In addition, the tribological situation in the exhaust valve system is expected to become even worse due to strict future emission regulations, which will require enhanced combustion and cleaner fuels.
