OBJECTIVE: To evaluate psychometric properties of newly developed hand and wrist proprioception tests.DESIGN: Cross-sectional and test-retest comparisons.SUBJECTS/PATIENTS: Twenty-six individuals (mean age 40 years) with wrist disability (> 3 months) due to traumatic injury or general instability.METHODS: Pointing acuity (with eyes open and closed), active joint position sense (in extension, flexi

Introduction The Problematic Experience of Therapy Scale (PETS) identifies barriers to home-based exercise programs but has not been validated in hand therapy populations. This study aimed to translate the extended PETS into Swedish and evaluate its content and construct validity in patients undergoing early sensory relearning following peripheral nerve injury.Methods The PETS was translated into

BACKGROUND: Fever is associated with brain injury after cardiac arrest. It is unknown whether fever management with a feedback-controlled device impacts patient-centered outcomes in cardiac arrest patients. This trial aims to investigate fever management with or without a temperature control device after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. METHODS: The TEMP-CARE trial is part of the 2 × 2 × 2 factoria

A search for pair production of vector-like leptons coupling to first- and second-generation Standard Model leptons is presented. The search is based on a dataset of proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1. Events are categorised depending on the flavour and multiplicity

A search is performed for light, spin-0 bosons decaying into two photons in the 66 to 110 GeV mass range, using 140 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV produced by the Large Hadron Collider and collected by the ATLAS detector. Multivariate analysis techniques are used to define event categories that improve the sensitivity to new resonances beyond the Standard Model. A model-independent

This paper presents a search for supersymmetric particles in models with highly compressed mass spectra, in events consistent with being produced through vector boson fusion. The search uses 140 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data at s = 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Events containing at least two jets with a large gap in pseudorapidity, large missing tran

Violence against women is a major public health concern. Comparative research on outcomes across different service providers remains limited. Method: Women seeking support from social welfare units or women's shelters were recruited from six organizations in Sweden. A pre–post design was applied, with structured interviews and questionnaires at baseline and 1-year follow-up. Fifty-one women partic

Introduction Endometriosis is a chronic, inflammatory and oestrogen-dependent disease frequently causing infertility. Assisted reproductive technologies (ART) are often required to achieve pregnancy, especially in women with advanced endometriosis. To date, there is no randomised controlled trial (RCT) exploring reproductive outcomes after first-line surgery followed by ART versus first-line ART i

In 2020, Covid-19 was declared a global pandemic, which’s effects caused a crisis for society, individuals as well as the multiprofessional teams in Swedish healthcare. The aim of this thesis was therefore to explore the experience of healthcare social workers, doctors, and nurses in multiprofessional teams during the covid-19-pandemic and how this crisis has affected their collaboration. The stud

In this paper, we study the effect of raising the fee for non-attendance on non-attendance rates in health care from a Swedish perspective. We do this by using a difference in difference design and exploiting a natural experiment in Sweden, where one county increased non-attendance fee to the double and the other county had a constant fee. Data on individual level allows us to investigate a genera

Young people with intellectual disabilities in Indonesia face difficulties living up to the financial and social independence criteria of social adulthood. Many will need care- and livelihood support throughout their adult lives. This case study aims to examine how formal and informal social protection for persons with intellectual disabilities is organized in a semi-urban city in Central Java. So

Organisations increasingly adopt digital technologies in order to assist and improve the efficiency of their decision-making processes. Industries, including banking, need to increasingly adapt to the world of digitalization. The amount of data that has to be processed in the banking industry is increasing exponentially, and digital technology represents valuable solutions to processing this data

This paper investigates the labour force participation among Jordanian women. Although most indicators, such as the country’s political economy and relatively high HDI scores, the high percentage of female students at universities and encouragement from the Royal family, signal that the situation ought to be different, Jordanian women’s labour force participation is below the Middle Eastern averag

This study aims to scrutinise Serbia’s adaptation to the Copenhagen criteria between 2017 and 2024, by examining the country’s progress and challenges in its path toward EU membership. By using Andrew Moravcsik’s Liberal Intergovernmentalism as the theoretical framework, the research analyses how domestic political preferences, institutional dynamics and international bargaining have shaped Serbia

This thesis is motivated by the aim of ascertaining whether the ECtHR is limiting the ECHR’s potential, if any, to contribute to the curbing of child welfare disproportionality rates in CoE MSs. It provides a critical analysis of ECtHR jurisprudence on child protection interventions involving minority children – namely, children belonging to ethnic, religious, or linguistic minority groups or whos
