- Construction and Demolition Waste (CDW) accounts for approximately 25-30% of all waste generated across Europe each year. However, Waste Framework Directive 2008/98/EC requires from all EU member states to achieve at least 70% re-use, recycling or other recovery of non-hazardous CDW by 2020. In response, the Horizon 2020 RE4 Project (REuse and REcycling of CDW materials and structures in energy efficient pREfabricated elements for building REfurbishment and construction) consortium was set up. Its main aims are to assess the quality of various CDW fractions (e.g. mineral aggregate, timber, plastics, silt & clay), improve the quality of mineral aggregates and develop different building elements/components which contain at least 65% of CDW. Innovative building concepts will also be developed in an effort to improve recycling rates of future buildings through the use of prefabrication and modular design. The developed products and technologies will be assessed in a number of test sites by building 2-storey demonstration houses.

- The EU Waste Framework Directive 2008/98/EC states that all member states should take all necessary measures in order to achieve at least 70% re-use, recycling or other recovery of non-hazardous Construction and Demolition Waste (CDW) by 2020. In response, the Horizon 2020 RE4 project consortium (REuse and REcycling of CDW materials and structures in energy efficient pREfabricated elements for building REfurbishment and construction) consisting of 12 research and industrial partners across Europe, plus a research partner from Taiwan, was set up. For its success, the approach of the Project was manifold, developing sorting technologies to first improve the quality of CDW-derived aggregate. Simultaneously, CDW streams were assessed for quality and novel applications developed for aggregate, timber and plastic waste in a variety of products including structural and non-structural elements. With all products considered, innovative building concepts have been designed in a bid to improve future reuse and recycling of the products by promoting prefabricated construction methods and modular design to ease future recycling and increase value of the construction industry. The developed technologies and products have been put to the test in different test sites in building a two-storey house containing at least 65% of CDW. © 2019, © 2019 The Author(s)..

Antibiotika vid parodontala behandlingar

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Inom parodontalvården kan systemisk behandling med lämpligt antibiotikum i vissa situationer vara indicerad som ett tillägg till konventionell behandling, till exempel vid akuta infektioner, snabbt progredierande former av parodontit (inkluderande juvenil parodontit) och hos patienter med komprometterat immunsystem. Denna terapeutiska ansats grundas på uppfattningen att den marginala parodontiten i dess olika former kan anses vara en endogen polymikrobiell opportunistisk infektion där en ekologisk obalans uppstått, varvid vissa så kallade parodontitpatogena bakteriearter kommit att dominera. Eftersom det är näst intill omöjligt att kliniskt diagnostisera en pågående parodontal destruktion kan diagnostiken lämpligen kompletteras med en mikrobiologisk analys. Val av antibiotikum görs på basis av dessa diagnostiska kriterier. Då infektionerna är att betrakta som endogena kan vi inte räkna med att eliminera dessa parodontitpatogener, däremot kan vi med antibiotika hämma deras aktivitet och kontrollera deras tillväxt. För att uppnå en bestående parodontal hälsa krävs att de parodontala vävnaderna efter behandling åter kan anses vara fria från inflammation och uppvisa ett reducerat, men friskt, fäste. Lokal behandling med olika antibiotika finns som behandlingsform men det saknas alltjämt studier som övertygande visar bättre kliniska långtidseffekter när subgingival depuration kombineras med lokal antibiotikabehandling än de resultat som kan uppnås med enbart konserverande parodontal behandling.

- Objectives To assess the 1-year outcome after shunt surgery in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH). Methods Patients (n = 142) were prospectively included in the European multicentre study by 13 centres. Diagnoses were based solely on clinical and radiological findings. All received a programmable ventriculoperitoneal shunt. Re-examinations, 12 months after surgery, were performed in 115 patients, and the outcome was assessed by the modified Rankin scale (mRs) and a new iNPH grading scale. Improvement was defined as =1 step on the mRs and =5 points on the iNPH scale. Results The scores on both scales were significantly improved after 1 year of shunt treatment (Ps < 0.001). Sixty-nine per cent of the patients were improved according to the mRs and 84% according to the iNPH scale. The proportion able to live independently (scores 02 on the mRs) was increased from 53% before to 82% 12 months after surgery (P < 0.001). Neither classification (typical or questionable) nor comorbidity affected the level of improvement. Patients not completing the study were worse off with regard to their clinical condition at entry than completers. Twenty-eight per cent of the patients experienced complications and were either conservatively (13%) or surgically (15%) treated. Conclusion The results of this prospective multicentre study on patients with iiNPH diagnosed solely on clinical and radiological criteria support shunt surgery in patients presenting with symptoms and signs and MRI findings suggestive of iNPH.
