Objective: Primary care is the base in many health care systems, and to identify the most registered diagnoses in primary care is a way to identify the overall health care use and needs in society. We estimated the rates of the 30 most common diagnoses in primary health care and their male to female ratio. Research design and methods: This was a study including inhabitants 18 years and older out o
This thesis covers the estimation of the fracture behaviour of the European wood species Norway spruce and birch. The fracture behavior of wood can be quantified through three material parameters: the stiffness, the strength, and the specific fracture energy. In the present work, these parameters are characterized through two methods.The first method is purely experimental and only estimates one pThis thesis covers the estimation of the fracture behaviour of the European woodspecies Norway spruce and birch.

Barn som upplever våld i hemmet har innan 2021 inte haft ett straffrättsligt skydd i svensk lag. Det finns studier som visar att var tionde barn i Sverige någon gång har upplevt våld mellan närstående. Situationen där vuxna utövar våld i vad som ska vara barnets tryggaste zon, kan ge förödande konsekvenser, både fysiskt som psykiskt. Den 14 juni 2018 beslutade regeringen att tillsätta en särskildBefore 2021, children who experience violence in their homes have not had criminal protection in Swedish law. There are studies that show that every tenth child in Sweden has ever experienced violence between relatives. The situation where adults use violence, in what should be the child's safest zone, can have devastating consequences, both physically and mentally. On 14 June 2018, the govern

I november 2023 presenterades en SOU som skulle se över hur sexköpslagen kan appliceras på onlineköp av sex. SOU:n kommer till följd av att nya former av sexköp, där även helt digitala former av sexköp, blivit vanligare. För andra bestämmelser i 6 kap. BrB förekommer redan en begreppsbildning som möjliggör lagföring vid sexualbrott utan fysisk kontakt mellan parterna. Vid ny kriminalisering ska kIn November 2023, a SOU was presented which reviewed how the Sex Purchase Act could be applied on online purchases of sex. The SOU came after new forms of commercial sex, including purely digital sex, became common. In other sections in ch. 6 the Criminal Code, concepts allow for prosecution of sex crimes without physical contact between the involved parties. In case of new criminalization, crim
Novelty is a core value in science, and a reliable measurement of novelty is crucial. This study proposes a new approach of measuring the novelty of scientific articles based on both citation data and text data. The proposed approach considers an article to be novel if it cites a combination of semantically distant references. To this end, we first assign a word embedding–a vector representation o
Inhaling radon and its progeny is associated with adverse health outcomes. However, previous studies of the health effects of residential exposure to radon in the United States were commonly based on a county-level temporally invariant radon model that was developed using measurements collected in the mid- to late 1980s. We developed a machine learning model to predict monthly radon concentrations
OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether surveillance of pulmonary nodules detected with low-dose CT (LDCT) impacted health-related quality of life and psychosocial consequences in the Swedish population-based study, Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS).DESIGN: A prospective cross-sectional study.SETTINGS AND PARTICIPANTS: This multicentre (five sites) observational study, which included a co
The near zero liquid discharge (NZLD) approach, by recovering water and dissolved valuable salts, is the most attractive clean solution for the valorisation of brines from seawater desalination reverse osmosis (SWD-RO) plants. In this perspective, a key aspect is calcium removal/recovery, to avoid scaling problems in the successive advanced separation units for recovering other valuable salts. In
Objectives: The overall aim of the Swedish Breast Reconstruction Outcome Study was to investigate national long-term outcomes after mastectomy with or without breast reconstruction. The current report evaluates breast reconstruction (BR) patterns in Sweden over time. Materials and methods: This is a cross-sectional, registry-based study where all women operated with mastectomy 2000, 2005, 2010 wer
Models where dark matter is a part of an electroweak multiplet feature charged particles with macroscopic lifetimes due to the charged-neutral mass split of the order of pion mass. At the Large Hadron Collider, the ATLAS and CMS experiments will identify these charged particles as disappearing tracks, since they decay into a massive invisible dark matter candidate and a very soft charged Standard-
Customers are important stakeholders for any company; yet, they seem not to be widely discussed in merger and acquisition research. This chapter synthesizes the current body of research on customers in mergers and acquisitions through presenting a systematic literature review. The chapter is based on a systematic literature review resulting from a search in EBSCO Host for any research item that re
Objectives: The aim of this study was to explore the prevalence of eating difficulties and malnutrition among persons in hospital care and in special accommodations. Design: The cross-sectional observational study was performed in Nov. 2005. Setting: Hospitals and special accommodations. Participants: Out of 2945 persons, 2600 (88%) agreed to participate (1726 from special accommodations and 874 f
Purpose: To test various ways of combining creatinine and cystatin C in equations to predict glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Material and methods: Performance of the following expressions to predict GFR was compared with measured GFR (iohexol clearance, mL/min/1.73 m(2)) in 857 patients: (i) Lund-Malmo creatinine equation, (ii) Grubb cystatin C equation, (iii) arithmetic mean of (1) and (2), (iv
The thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase ResA from Bacillus subtilis fulfils a reductive role in cytochrome c maturation. The pK(a) values for the CEPC (one-letter code) active-site cysteine residues of Ill are unusual for thioredoxin-like proteins ill that they are both high (> 8) and within 0.5 unit of each other. To determine the contribution of the inter-cysteine dipeptide of ResA to its redox and a
Background. To study group B streptococcus (GBS) colonisation in parturients and infants in relation to obstetric outcome and to define serotypes and antibiotic resistance in GBS isolates acquired. Methods. A population-based, national cohort of parturients and their infants was investigated. During 1 calendar week in 2005 all women giving birth (n=1,754) were requested to participate in the study
Previous research has shown a male bias in the media. This study tests this statement by examining how the pronouns She and He are used in a news media context. More specifically, the study tests whether He occurs more often and in more positive semantic contexts than She, as well as whether She is associated with more stereotypically and essential labels than He is.
