Acute myocardial infarction occurring in versus out of the hospital: patient characteristics and clinical outcome
2000
OBJECTIVES We describe the baseline characteristics and clinical course of patients who had an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) during their hospital stay. BACKGROUND In comparison with patients who had an AMI outside of the hospital (prehospital AMI), the data on patients who had an AMI in the hospital are poorly described. METHODS Patients with an in-hospital AMI were prospectively registered in the Southwest German Maximal Individual TheRapy in Acute myocardial infarction (MITRA) study and compared with patients with prehospital AMI. RESULTS Of 5,888 patients with AMI, 403 patients (6.8%) had an in-hospital AMI. These patients were older, more often male and sicker as compared with the …
Depressive symptoms in older female carers of adults with intellectual disabilities
2010
Background This survey study aims to examine the prevalence and factors associated with depressive symptoms among primary older female family carers of adults with intellectual disabilities (ID). Method In total, 350 female family carers aged 55 and older took part and completed the interview in their homes. The survey package contained standardised scales to assess carer self-reported depressive symptoms, social support, caregiving burden and disease and health, as well as adult and carer sociodemographic information. Multiple linear regressions were used to identify the factors associated with high depressive symptoms in carers. Results Between 64% and 72% of these carers were classifi…
Disorders associated with burnout and causal attributions of stress among health care professionals in psychiatry
2008
Abstract This study, carried out among health care professionals in psychiatry, evaluates burnout (Maslash Burnout Inventory) in relation to other associated disorders: lower levels of self-esteem in different areas (Self-Esteem Inventory); the frequency of stress felt (Nursing Stress Scale); a lesser feeling of general control (Lumpkin); a more negative perception of the general state of health (Diagnostic Interview Schedule); job dissatisfaction and dissatisfaction with numerous aspects of life (Subjective Quality of Life Profile). Moreover, among these professionals, the fact of describing the causes of one's professional burnout as having a “global” impact on one's behavior (using the C…
Cardiac arrest in older adult patients
2021
Purpose of review To describe the epidemiology, prognostication, and treatment of out- and in-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA and IHCA) in elderly patients. Recent findings Elderly patients undergoing cardiac arrest (CA) challenge the appropriateness of attempting cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Current literature suggests that factors traditionally associated with survival to hospital discharge and neurologically intact survival after CA cardiac arrest in general (e.g. presenting ryhthm, bystander CPR, targeted temperature management) may not be similarly favorable in elderly patients. Alternative factors meaningful for outcome in this special population include prearrest functional sta…
Responses to ultraviolet radiation in larval pike, Esox lucius, of two origins and ages
2007
Ultraviolet radiation (UVR)-induced mortality and behavioural disorder were studied in larval northern pike of two origins and ages. Newly hatched larvae of two differently coloured populations and six-day-old larvae of one population were exposed to four fluence rates of UVR, resulting in total doses from 11.5 to 63 kJ m–2, and monitored for mortality and behaviour. The rate of mortality and the severity of behavioural disorder differed by origin and age of the animals, but the effect was fluence-rate dependent. Total melanin concentration of newly hatched larvae was measured to assess if sensitivity to UVR correlated with pigmentation, but no differences in melanin concentration between l…
Lisääntymissysteemin vaikutus metsäkurjenpolven (Geranium sylvaticum) patogeeniresistenssiin
2016
Lisääntymissysteemiltään gynodieekkisissa kasvipopulaatioissa on tavallisesti sukupuoleltaan kahdenlaisia yksilöitä, puhtaasti emikukkaisia kasveja sekä kaksineuvoisia kukkia tuottavia kasveja. Nämä eri sukupuolet eroavat toisistaan geneettisten, morfologisten ja fysiologisten piirteiden suhteen. Lisääntymissysteemi vaikuttaa myös yksilöiden resurssiallokointitapaan sekä siihen miten ja missä suhteessa gynodieekkisten populaatioiden yksilöt osallistuvat geenien siirtämiseen jälkeläisilleen. Emikasvit osallistuvat jälkeläistuotantoon siemenaiheita tuottamalla ja kaksineuvoiset kasvit siemenaiheita sekä siitepölyä tuottamalla. Edellä mainitut sukupuolisidonnaisten erojen vaikutukset voivat he…

Kotipoltto vs. tehdasviina : paloviinan koti- ja tehdaspolttoa koskeneet väittelyt 1800-luvun puolivälin suomenkielisessä lehdistössä
2014
Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tarkastella paloviinan kotipolton kieltämistä koskenutta keskustelua suomenkielisessä sanomalehdistössä, liittyen vuoden 1863 säätyvaltiopäiviin, joilla asia oli käsittelyssä. Tutkimusaineisto koostui 38:sta kirjeestä, jotka julkaistiin lehdistössä kymmenen vuoden aikajaksolla ennen ja jälkeen valtiopäivien vuosina 1857–1867. Kirjeet olivat maaseutu- ja vähemmässä määrin kaupunkikirjeenvaihtajien kirjoittamia, ja niiden kirjoittajat edustivat eri säätyjä – talonpoikia, aatelisia, pappeja ja porvareita. Tutkimuskysymykseni oli kaksijakoinen: Lähdin tutkimaan millaisia ominaispiirteitä tai mahdollisia kaavamaisuuksia keskustelusta oli löydettävissä, ja mitä näide…
Active compression-decompression cardiopulmonary resuscitation — Instructor and student manual for teaching and training
1996
In an attempt to standardize the teaching and training of active compression-decompression cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ACD-CPR), a group of leading emergency physicians, cardiologists, anesthesiologists, paramedics and nurses with practical, theoretical, educational, and scientific experience in the subject met in June 1995. The group was called The International Working Group of Teaching and Training Active Compression-Decompression CPR. The group was 'born' as a result of the first International Conference of Active Compression-Decompression CPR held in Copenhagen in March 1995. The following paper describes the background, development and text of and ACD-CPR course manual for both stu…
