BACKGROUND: In select patients with heart failure, cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is the most common complementary treatment besides medical treatment. We aimed to assess the association between post CRT-implant changes in cardiovascular medication and cardiovascular mortality and heart failure hospitalization.METHODS: 211 patients on optimal medical therapy eligible for CRT were retrospe
Blood group antigens may be used as receptors by pathogens when infecting their hosts. Different blood groups therefore can be disease susceptibility factors. Thus, pathogens may have exerted a selection pressure on the evolution of blood group diversity. One aim of our study was to identify red blood cell (RBC) membrane structures that are bound by the common human pathogen. Streptococcus pyogene
Plants have developed complex molecular mechanisms to recognize and respond to the different microorganisms present in their surroundings. The most studied response mechanisms are plant defense responses. These defense response mechanisms share many similar components with the plant response mechanisms to beneficial microbes. Therefore, studying the defense response mechanisms against pathogens caPlants have developed complex molecular mechanisms to recognize and respond to the different microorganisms present in their surroundings.

The doctorate serves as the cornerstone for academic careers but has also gained importance in other societal sectors. Therefore, the gate-keeping function executed by examination committees is pivotal for the future of academia, as well as the development of the knowledge society. In a recently published study, we have delved into how the assessment practices of examination committees can be und

At the 100 years anniversary in 2020 of the Reunion around 650 memorials have been protected. The memorials are to be found all over Denmark, where they constitute the largest group. The time of their erection, the localization, design, inscriptions, pictures and initiators are relatively well known. The article investigates two main questions. Firstly, why have so many memorials for the Reunion bAt the 100 years anniversary in 2020 of the Reunion around 650 memorials have been protected.

Turistindustrin runt om i världen fick snabbt anpassa sig till de restriktioner för resor som tillkom i samband med COVID-19. Visit Sweden, Sveriges officiella organisation för turism, bestämde sig för att lansera en kampanj som använder strategier inom platsvarumärkning för att uppmuntra svenskar att agera turister i sitt eget land. Studiens syfte var att undersöka hur semiotiska resurser, visuelThe tourism industry worldwide had to adapt to the sudden travel regulations following COVID-19. Visit Sweden, Sweden's official organization for tourism, decided to launch a campaign using place branding strategies to encourage Swedes to explore and act as tourists in their own country. This study aims to examine how semiotic resources, visual framing and place identity are used to communicat

The purpose with this master thesis has been to reduce the number of accidents and incidents related to spillage and discharge of product. This has been done by assessing the safety culture and strategies have been proposed on how to act upon the shortcomings that have been revealed in the assessment. An adjusted model has been developed for the assessment of the safety culture. The adjusted model
The more globalized, dynamic and quickly changing society creates complexity and uncertainty that is challenging for many leaders of today's organizations. To handle this complexity it can be argued that the organizations of today are in need of more consciousness-developed leaders. In can also be argued that today’s formative leadership development programs, focusing on leaders acquiring the
Background: Dabigatran has been proved a valid medical substitute to warfarin in stroke preventing treatment of patients with atrial fibrillation. But cost-effectiveness analyses have shown that dabigatran, in comparison to warfarin, is not cost-effective at its current price. However, no existing studies are made in relation to cardio version. The object of this study was thus to evaluate whether
Syftet med projektet har varit att utveckla Certecklockan till ett bärbart tidshjälpmedel. Certecklockan är ett tidshjälpmedel som mäter tiden i längd, detta för att hjälpa personer med kognitiva funktionshinder att få en bättre tidsuppfattning. I början av projektet hade vi ett antal olika förslag så som armbandsur, något att hänga runt halsen, mobiltelefon mm. Men vi kom till slut fram till att The aim of this project was to develop the Certec Clock into a portable time aid. The Certec Clock measures time in length to help people with cognitive limitations gain a better perception of the concept of time. At the beginning of the project, we came up with a variety of ideas including a wristwatch, a necklace watch and a mobile phone. We reached the conclusion that a handheld computer was th
The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence and comorbidity of persisting attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adult psychiatric outpatients. Consecutive patients, first visits excluded, at a general psychiatric outpatient clinic were offered a screening for childhood ADHD with the Wender Utah Rating Scale (WURS). One hundred and forty-one patients out of 398 (35%) com
BACKGROUND: There are few data on how patients on maintenance treatment of reflux oesophagitis take their medication. This study was designed to investigate the dosing patterns of patients on on-demand treatment and to compare lansoprazole with omeprazole in this regard. METHODS: Patients with reflux oesophagitis, initially treated until absence of symptoms, took capsules of either lansoprazole (3
INTRODUCTION: In the ECG, significant ST elevation or depression according to specific amplitude criteria can be indicative of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Guidelines state that the ST amplitude should be measured at the J point, but data to support that this is the optimal measuring point for ACS detection is lacking. We evaluated the impact of different measuring points for ST deviation on the
This study estimates the causal effect of receiving additional paid vacation days on health. Using register data on the universe of central government employees in Sweden, I exploit an age-based rule stipulated in the collective agreement covering these employees. Identification is achieved by combining a regression discontinuity with a difference-in-differences design to control for time-invarian
