- This study identifies the use of capacity planning methods and analyzes the characteristic modes of application among satisfied users. It is based on data collected from 84 Swedish manufacturing companies. Capacity planning using overall factors and capacity requirements planning are the most common planning methods in Swedish manufacturing industries. Capacity bills is the method with lowest average level of applicability. Satisfied users base capacity requirement determination on objective data and up-date the plans more frequently than dissatisfied users.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We carried out a randomised, prospective, multicentre clinical trial of the treatment of Colles' fractures. A total of 339 patients was placed into two groups, those with minimally displaced fractures not requiring manipulation (151 patients) and those with displaced fractures which needed manipulation (188 patients). Treatment was by either a conventional Colles' plaster cast (a control group) or with a prefabricated functional brace (the Aberdeen Colles' fracture brace). Similar results were obtained in both groups with regard to the reduction and to pain scores but the brace provided better grip strength in the early stages of treatment. This was statistically significant after five weeks for both manipulated and non-manipulated fractures. At the tenth day the results were statistically significant only in manipulated fractures. There was no significant difference in the functional outcome between the two treatment groups. However, younger patients and those with less initial displacement had better functional results.
