  2. 1. Improving efficiency, access to and quality of the rural health extension programme in Tigray, Ethiopia : the case of malaria diagnosis and treatment

    Author : Hailemariam Lemma; Miguel San Sebastian; Curt Löfgren; Wakgari Deressa; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Health extension programme; Malaria; Rapid diagnostic test; Acess health care; Efficiency; Cost-effectiveness; Adherence; Community health worker.; folkhälsa; Public health;

    Abstract : Introduction: Ensuring universal access to primary health care (PHC) is a key component of the Ethiopian nationalhealth policy. The policy also emphasises promoting and enhancing national self-reliance in health development bymobilizing and efficiently utilizing resources including community participation. READ MORE

  4. 2. Materials Handling from a Value-Adding Perspective

    Author : Birgitta Öjmertz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ergonomics; value-adding; improvement; performance measurement; materials flow system; activity analysis; materials handling; efficiency;

    Abstract : The keen competition in industry puts a great deal of pressure upon all parts involved, and in addition to demands on the physical product, there are demands on the service aspects, such as an increased demand on the configuration of the delivered materials and their packaging, on throughput time, timeliness, and increased cost efficiency. The performance of the materials flow systems, in which materials handling constitutes an important part, therefore plays a crucial part in the strive for competitive advantage. READ MORE

  5. 3. An Event-Reconstructing Silicon Detector for 1 µm Resolution Spectral Computed Tomography

    Author : Christel Sundberg; Mats Danielsson; Julia Herzen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; photon-counting; silicon detector; spectral computed tomography; subpixel resolution; dose efficiency; coincidence tracking; event reconstruction; fotonräknande; kiseldetektor; spektral datortomografi; subpixelupplösning; doseffektivitet; koincidensspårning; händelserekonstruktion; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Computed tomography (CT) is a medical imaging modality in which cross-sectional images of the human body are created using x-rays. Commercial CT scanners utilize energy-integrating detectors to measure the x-ray attenuation. However, photon-counting detectors with energy-discriminating abilities have started to emerge.

  6. 4. Single-Proton Irradiation of Living Cells - Development of New Tools for Low-Dose Radiation Research

    Author : Natalia Arteaga; Kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lithography; UVL; EBL; SeACell; human hepatoma cells HepG2 ; reactive oxygen species ROS ; bystander effect; SU-8; cell recognition; cell irradiation; Single-Ion Hit Facility; low-dose; Fysicumarkivet A:2010:Arteaga Marrero;

    Abstract : A Single-Ion Hit Facility (SIHF) consists of a custom-build facility based in particle accelerators which offers irradiation controlling the number of delivered particles with a precise targeting localization. The irradiation spot can be confined down to the nanometre scale allowing the irradiation of subcellular compartments with a single particle. READ MORE

  7. 5. Furosemide dosage input : consequences for diuretic effect, tolerance and efficiency

    Author : Monique Wakelkamp; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : furosemide; drug input rate; pharmacokinetics; pharmacodynamics; tolerance; efficiency; probenecid;

    Abstract : The development of new dosage forms raises the question of how the pharmacokinetic pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) profile of a drug is influenced by the drug input rate. Furosemide was used as a model drug to study the relationship between drug input rate and effect. READ MORE
