  1. 1. Managing the contradictions : Recovery from severe mental disorders

    Author : Alain Topor; Anders Bergmark; John Strauss; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychosis; severe mental disorder; schizophrenia; recovery; users perspective; Social work; Socialt arbete; Social Work; socialt arbete;

    Abstract : One of the assumptions made when mental problems are defined as a medical problem is that certain problems, certain diagnoses, are chronic.

    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; anorexia nervosa; adolescent onset; long-term follow-up; outcome; causes; recovery; perfectionism; patient perspectives; Child and adolescent psychiatry; Barn- och ungdomspsykiatri;

    Abstract : Anorexia Nervosa is a psychiatric illness with peak onset in ages 14-17. Most cases recover within a few years, but the illness can have a fatal outcome or long duration. Multifactor causes of anorexia nervosa include genetics, personality, family, and socio-cultural factors. READ MORE

  3. 3. Anorexia nervosa - The journey towards recovery : A randomized controlled treatment trial: assessment, prediction, treatment outcome and clinical change

  4. 4. Acoustical Measurements of Material Nonlinearity and Nonequilibrium Recovery

    Author : Kristian Haller; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nonlinear acoustics; nondestructive testing; activation density; slow dynamics; nonequilibrium recovery; resonance frequency; nonlinear wave modulation spectroscopy; harmonic generation; trapped modes; open resonator; sweep rate; constant strain sweep;

    Abstract : A damaged material or a material with non perfect atomic geometry, dislocations or cracks, exhibits two types of characteristic responses to acoustic excitations. First is the fast nonlinear dynamics response that is present as long as the material is excited. As soon as the excitation stops the response disappear. READ MORE

  5. 5. Evaluation of and recovery from impairment after Colles' fracture : A physiotherapeutic approach

    Author : Christel Lagerström; Uppsala universitet; []

    Abstract : Colles' fracture is one of the most common fractures and is particularly frequent in middle-aged and elderly women. Following acute surgical interventions and immobilization, many of the patients are referred for physiotherapy; but physiotherapy has not been shown to have a beneficial effect on the rate of functional recovery and on residual impairment.
