The aim of the Malmö Preventive Project was to find high-risk individuals for preventive intervention on cardiovascular risk factors, alcohol abuse, impaired glucose tolerance, and breast cancer. The risk factor screening included a physical examination, a panel of laboratory tests, a glucose intolerance test, and a mammography for women. In addition, every participant filled in a self-administere

Objective Menopausal transition, brings significant changes to various aspects of health and well-being, including sexuality. These changes are influenced by hormonal changes, psychological factors, and societal perceptions. Historically, research on menopausal transition has predominantly focused on pharmacological treatments, to address symptoms. However, these studies often neglect the inclusio
This thesis quantifies how everyday window opening habits affect indoor climate and heating demand in Swedish multi-family dwellings. Minute-by-minute data was analyzed that was collected for one year from 15 dwellings in northern and southern Sweden, logging window angle, air-quality indicators and temperatures indoors and outdoors. More than 17 000 discrete airing events were detected and charac

Uppsatsen behandlar tillståndsprocessen för landbaserad vindkraft, med fokus på vilka krav som ställs på beslutsunderlaget, gränsdragningen mellan avvisning och komplettering samt det kommunala vetots tillämpning. Syftet är att undersöka om det finns anledning och rättsligt utrymme att öppna upp för en alternativ prövningsprocess, samt att undersöka hur en sådan process kan utformas på ett mer ändThis thesis discusses the permit process for onshore wind power, focusing on the requirements for the decision-making basis, the distinction between rejection and requests for additional information, and the use of the municipal veto. The purpose is to examine whether there are reasons and legal possibilities to introduce an alternative review process, and how such a process could be designed in a
Although India has an extensive healthcare system, there are still significant quality gaps between the country’s rural and urban regions as well as between the country’s public and private healthcare sectors. Despite this, India is becoming an increasingly attractive destination for medical tourists due to the comparatively cheap rates and good quality of its private institutions. Students from o
MOTIVATION: Missing data present a pervasive challenge in data analysis, potentially biasing outcomes and undermining conclusions if not addressed properly. Missing data are commonly classified into Missing Completely at Random (MCAR), Missing at Random (MAR), and Missing Not at Random (MNAR). While MCAR poses a minimal risk of data distortion, both MAR and MNAR can seriously affect the results of
Background: Opioid substitution treatment (OST) populations are aging and have increased mortality and somatic morbidity compared to general populations internationally. While OST patients have poor self-rated physical health and unmet healthcare needs, documented healthcare utilization has been sparsely investigated. The aim of this study was to assess registered healthcare utilization for somati
There is limited knowledge about the associations between intakes of different foods and inconsistency in the literature of the relation between the quality of food intake and bodyweight in adolescents. The aim of this study is to explore how healthy self-reported food intakes are associated with each other and with overweight/obesity in adolescents. This is a cross-sectional study of seven cohort
Battery thermal management (BTM) plays a significant role in the safety and reliability of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) at higher speeds. In this study, a nanoparticle/phase change material (nano-PCM) composite is proposed for the BTM of an AUV. The effects of nanoparticle loading percentage (φ = 5, 10, and 15%) and nanoparticle filling range (α = 30, 60, 90, and 120°) on the battery tempe
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of two alternative chemotherapy regimes on the quality of life (QoL) of patients with advanced breast cancer. In a multicentre trial, 283 patients were randomised to receive either docetaxel (T) or sequential methotrexate and 5-fluorouracil (MF). QoL was assessed at baseline and before each treatment using the European Organization for Research
Aims: Information on standards including structure- and process-based metrics and how exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation (EBCR) is delivered in relation to guidelines is lacking. The aims of the study were to evaluate standards and adherence to guidelines at Swedish CR centers and to conduct a cost analysis of the physiotherapy-related activities of EBCR. Methods and Results: EBCR standards at
Background: Septic arthritis (SA) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is a rare yet severe complication. The samples in previous studies have been small and without nationwide coverage, making analysis uncertain with a risk of bias. Conclusions to recommend preventive measures are therefore difficult to draw, and it has not been possible to perform a comprehensive risk factor an
PurposeDrylands account for 47.2% of land area and contain 15.5% of global carbon (C). However, the variation in organic and inorganic C stocks across latitudinal gradients in arid and semiarid shrubland ecosystems remains understudied, and we lack in-depth understanding of the main drivers of C variation at this spatial scale.MethodsHere, we sampled soils from 95 sites across a latitudinal gradie
Demographic changes in Sweden, including an increasing number of older people and a shrinking workforce, have created challenges for municipal home care services. To meet rising care needs alongside limited resources and staff shortages, digital home care has been introduced as a potential solution. This study examined how leaders in municipal home care perceived and experienced the implementation
Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) used in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) are dose-reduced in elderly and patients with impaired renal function. Only reduced dose dabigatran is concluded as having similar stroke risk reduction and lower risk of major bleeding than warfarin in the pivotal studies. In clinical practice, reduced dose is prescribed more often than expected making this an impor
Background: The use of life stories in dementia care has been described as a way of seeing every person as an individual, looking beyond their dementia. Life stories have become synonymous with high-quality care, while in Sweden their mere existence in dementia care settings is taken to indicate quality in national comparisons. Such life stories are often standardised, generated by a family member
Clinical infertility is the inability of a couple to conceive after 12 months of trying. Male factors are estimated to contribute to 30–50% of cases of infertility. Infertility or reduced fertility can result from testicular dysfunction, endocrinopathies, lifestyle factors (such as tobacco and obesity), congenital anatomical factors, gonadotoxic exposures and ageing, among others. The evaluation o
Background: Given the national shortage of palliative care specialists relative to the need for their services, engaging nonspecialists is important to ensure patients with serious illness have an opportunity to share their goals and values with their providers. Hospital medicine clinicians are well positioned to conduct these conversations given they care for many medically complex patients. Yet,
