Background: Patients living under better socioeconomic circumstances often receive more active treatments after an acute myocardial infarction ( AMI) compared to less affluent patients. However, most previous studies were performed in countries with less comprehensive coverage for medical services. In this Swedish nation- wide longitudinal study we wanted to evaluate long- term survival after AMI

Background: Upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) is rare, and contemporary data on real-world healthcare resource utilisation and costs are limited. The objective of this study is to describe long-term healthcare resource utilisation among patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) and to identify clinical and treatment-related drivers of costs. Methods: We conducted a retrospective,

En wollastonitförekomst vid Stor Hulta gruvor i närheten av Nora har undersökts. I den nedlagda gruvan har tidigare skarnjärnmalm tillhörande leptitformationen brutits. I jämförande syfte har även wollastonit från Akatjvare i Tjåmotisområdet undersökts. Detta är LKAB:s prospekteringsobjekt och är beläget i Jokkmokks kommun. Resultaten för detta material, som utgörs av fyra stuffer av dubbel knytnäThe wollastonite occurrence at Hulta is a skarn deposit associated with iron ore within the Leptite Formation of central Sweden. Wollastonite is found in carbonate layers within the leptite and the rocks have been subject to regional metamorphism. These layers are normally approximately 10 cm thick. Corelogging, microscopic studies and X-ray diffraction show a varied composition of the rock, with

HTML clipboard Numerical analysis of partial admission in axial turbines is performed in this work. Geometrical details of an existing two stage turbine facility with low reaction blades is used for this purpose. For validation of the numerical results, experimental measurements of one partial admission configuration at design point was used. The partial admission turbine with single blockage had

Abstract in Finnish Arvioinnin kohteena oli vuosien 2008–2011 ja 2012–2015 aikana toteutettu pitkäaikaisasunnottomuuden vähentämisohjelmakokonaisuus, Paavo I ja Paavo II. Arvioinnissa keskityttiin ohjelmakokonaisuuteen ja sen eri osa-alueisiin näkökulmana asunto ensin -mallin toteuttaminen suomalaisessa yhteiskunnassa. Arviointiraportissa on kuvattu Iso-Britannian, Ruotsin ja USA:n asunnottomuustyThe review covered the whole of the programme to reduce long-term homelessness implemented during 2008–2011 and 2012–2015, Paavo I and Paavo II. The review focused on the programme as a whole as well as its different aspects from the point of view of implementing the Housing First model in Finnish society. The review report described work on homelessness done in the United Kingdom, Sweden and the

Eddy covariance measurement of species that are co-emitted with carbon dioxide (CO2), such as carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen oxides NO and NO2 (NOx), provides an opportunity to attribute a net flux to individual source or sink categories. We present eight months of continuous simultaneous measurements of fluxes (F) of CO2, CO, NOx, methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) from a tall tower (112 m

Nanoplastics are emerging environmental contaminants that increasingly threaten soil ecosystems, yet their effects on microbial behavior remain poorly understood. This is mainly due to the lack of experimental tools capable of directly observing microbial dynamics in situ under realistic soil-like conditions. Here, we present a proof-of-concept system that enables real-time, high-throughput monito

Background Labels for neck pain after a motor vehicle crash (MVC) influenced recovery expectations and management preferences. Research is needed to understand why these expectations and preferences varied based on the label given. Aim To explore how people perceive different labels for neck pain after an MVC. Methods We performed a content analysis of qualitative data from a randomised controlled

Estimating and monitoring migratory bird populations involves significant challenges, even in the most well-studied and easily-counted species, and can be further complicated by long-held but unverified assumptions and by shifting distributions in changing flyway conditions. We illustrate these challenges using Bar-tailed Godwits Limosa lapponica on the East Atlantic Flyway. The subspecies L. l. l

Background Hypochondriasis, or health anxiety disorder, is associated with increased mortality, mainly from potentially preventable causes. Substance misuse is a well-known contributor to premature death, yet its relationship with hypochondriasis remains unclear. We assessed the risk of broadly defined substance-related problems in individuals diagnosed with hypochondriasis. Methods This Swedish r

Questions: Earth observation is an important tool in biological monitoring. Previous studies have shown that variation in grassland canopy reflectance can explain gradients in plant community composition. However, there is a need for methods that allow the interpretation of the overall spectral signal of complex grassland vegetation in terms of existing knowledge about individual species' habitat

In this paper, we investigate a Multi-layer Aerial system for GenAI inference at the Edge (MAGE). Therein, ground user equipments (UEs) request image synthesis services from a remote base station (BS) that leverages the Latent Diffusion Model (LDM) for image generation. Multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are deployed to serve the UEs for relaying their images and prompts to the BS. To reduce

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det övergripande syftet för denna avhandling är att bland patrullerande poliser undersöka förekomst och karaktär av en yrkeskultur, som går utöver eller står i motsättning till polisens officiellt sanktionerade samhällsmandat bl.a. i termer av den inriktning, de prioriteringar och det regelverk som omger polisarbetet. Begreppet yrkeskultur står här för kollektiva mönsteUsing ethnographical methods, this thesis examines the prevalence and character of an occupational culture among patrolling police in terms of frames of reference, conduct and attitudes, a culture which overrides or is in opposition to the official mandate of the police force. It is suggested that the occupational culture of the patrolling police should not be regarded as a homogenous culture but

Popular Abstract in Swedish Blodbildande stamceller förekommer i mänsklig benmärg i en frekvens på ca 1/100 000 celler. Med hjälp av cellytemarkörer, t.ex. CD34, kan man rena fram cellpopulationer som är anrikade på stamceller, men det saknas exakt kunskap om hur enskilda stamceller ser ut. De blodbildande stamcellerna har förmåga att vid celldelning antingen förnya sig själva eller att mogna ut. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have the capacity to maintain hematopoiesis throughout life. HSCs are ideal targets for permanent gene transfer, as the transgene will be expressed in all the progeny of the gene-modified stem cells. The aim of this thesis was to optimize conditions for retroviral gene transfer to human candidate HSCs and to study mechanisms interfering with efficient gene transfer.

This dissertation has three cornerstones: * Haptics * Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) * Blind Users Haptics deals with controlling human movements and getting feedback through the sense of touch. A haptic interface transmits forces to a person’s hand or fingers in a way that mimics the sensation of touching real objects. Virtual haptic touch can be particularly useful for people with visual i

This is the first annual report for the Swedish Butterfly Monitoring Scheme, a new national monitoring programme coordinated by Lund University for the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency. The programme was initiated in 2010, and is a partnership between the Entomological Society of Sweden, the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency, Lund University, the Swedish University of Agricultural Sci

Popular Abstract in Swedish Akut mellanöreinflammation (akut otitis media, AOM) är en av barnaålderns vanligaste sjukdomare och en av dem som oftast föranleder antibiotikabehandling. De flesta barn får bara någon enstaka AOM, men cirka 5% av dem som insjuknar drabbas sedan av upprepade infektioner (s.k. otit-benägna barn) och blir till ett problem både för patienten, dennes familj och samhället. DAcute otitis media (AOM) is one of the most common childhood diseases and the most common causes of antibiotic treatment in small children. Most children will experience one or two episodes of AOM during preschool age but some will suffer from repeated attacks, they will become otitis-prone. Complications with severe, sometimes fatal infections such as acute mastoiditis and meningitis are nowadays
