- This RCT study aimed to investigate if VIS-Ed (Visualization through Imaging and Simulation - Education) had the potential to improve medical student education and specialist training in clinical diagnosis and treatment of trauma patients. The participants' general opinion was reported as high in both groups (lecture vs. virtual patient (VP)). Face validity of the VIS-Ed for cervical spine trauma was demonstrated and the VP group reported higher stimulation and engagement compared to the lecture group. No significant difference in the knowledge test between both groups could be observed, confirming our null hypothesis that VIS-Ed was on par with a lecture.

- HUmic-LIke Substances (HULIS) have been identified as major contributors to the organic carbon in atmospheric aerosol. The term "HULIS" is used to describe the organic material found in aerosol particles that resembles the humic organic material in rivers and sea water and in soils. In this study, two sets of filter samples from atmospheric aerosols were collected at different sites. One set of samples was collected at the K-puszta rural site in Hungary, about 80 km SE of Budapest, and a second was collected at a site in Rondonia, Amazonia, Brazil, during the Large-Scale Biosphere-Atmosphere Experiment in Amazonia - Smoke Aerosols, Clouds, Rainfall and Climate (LBA-SMOCC) biomass burning season experiment. HULIS were extracted from the samples and their hygroscopic properties were studied using a Hygroscopicity Tandem Differential Mobility Analyzer (H-TDMA) at relative humidity (RH) < 100%, and a cloud condensation nucleus counter (CCNC) at RH > 100%. The H-TDMA measurements were carried out at a dry diameter of 100 nm and for RH ranging from 30 to 98%. At 90% RH the HULIS samples showed diameter growth factors between 1.04 and 1.07, reaching values of 1.4 at 98% RH. The cloud nucleating properties of the two sets of aerosol samples were analysed using two types of thermal static cloud condensation nucleus counters. Two different parameterization models were applied to investigate the potential effect of HULIS surface activity, both yielding similar results. For the K-puszta winter HULIS sample, the surface tension at the point of activation was estimated to be lowered by between 34% (47.7 mN/m) and 31% (50.3 mN/m) for dry sizes between 50 and 120 nm in comparison to pure water. A moderate lowering was also observed for the entire water soluble aerosol sample, including both organic and inorganic compounds, where the surface tension was decreased by between 2% (71.2 mN/m) and 13% (63.3 mN/m).

- Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of: i) a mobile phone supported family-centred intervention, F@ce, ii) the study design for evaluating the effects of the intervention on the perceived impact of stroke, perceived participation in everyday life, and self-efficacy in everyday activities among persons with stroke and their families in Uganda. Methods: A pre-post design with an intervention group (IG) and a control group (CG) (n¼30). The inclusion criteria were: confirmed stroke diagnosis, access to and ability to use a mobile phone, able to express themselves in English and/or Luganda, >18 years of age, resident in Kampala and its surroundings

- Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of using a person-centred ICT based intervention (F@CE) within multidisciplinary teams to increase the clients’ participation in everyday life after stroke in terms of study design and outcomes. The F@CE intervention was developed in collaboration with web developers and future users based on the Medical Research Council guidelines. A web-platform was created to provide a structure for the rehabilitation process and facilitate change by integrating a global problem solving strategy with SMS-reminders. Methods: 3 teams consisting of occupational therapists and physiotherapists working in neurological rehabilitation took part in 3 workshops including lectures, discussions and practical exercises. The participating teams then enrolled 10 clients with stroke that participated in the intervention. Goals were set using COPM and the clients scored their 3 goals each day during 8 weeks. Data was collected at inclusion, at 4 and 8 weeks using COPM, SIS, Self-Efficacy, LISAT-11, follow-up survey, daily ratings in the web-platform and by logbooks. Results: Response rates were 44–100% (mean 78%). Improvement was shown by COPM on both performance and satisfaction. In SIS 3.0 the items strength and ADL were those were the largest proportion of participants had improved at follow-up were strength and ADL/IADL (80 %) followed by memory, communication and mobility (70 %). Conclusion: All were satisfied with F@CE and the benefits of daily reminders of the goals which encouraged them to be more active. The only downside described was that they felt obligated to practice, although described as “a positive must”.

- BACKGROUND: Bleeding is a known and CO2 embolization a suggested risk factor for increased morbidity after laparoscopic liver resection. Devices for laparoscopic liver parenchymal transection must be evaluated for safety in this context. METHOD: Twelve piglets underwent laparoscopic surgery during CO2 pneumoperitoneum, each animal receiving three 6 cm long transections into the liver parenchyma made with ultrasonic dissector, ultrasonic shears and vessel sealing system, respectively. Endpoints were bleeding, operation time and gas embolization. The transections and embolization events, evaluated with transesophageal echocardiography, were video recorded. Bleeding and embolization were also assessed on video tapes and operating time measured. Arterial blood gases were recorded on line. RESULTS: The ultrasonic dissector was least advantageous in terms of bleeding and operation time. Gas embolization was more frequent with the vessel sealing system than with the ultrasonic dissector and ultrasonic shears. During two episodes of gas embolization, pCO2 increased and pO2 and pH decreased. CONCLUSIONS: Use of all three devices is feasible. Bleeding and operation time are greatest with the ultrasonic dissector. Gas embolization occurs during transection, though in most instances it is completely harmless. Laparoscopic liver surgery with these techniques used may pose a risk of gas embolization with clinical implications. Monitoring for such events is probably to be recommended.
