A 38-year-old woman with type 1 diabetes, whose fasting plasma glucose levels were >500 mg/dL under 176 U/day of subcutaneous insulin injection, was admitted to Nippon Medical School Hospital, Tokyo, Japan. When insulin was administered intravenously, she was able to maintain favorable glycemic control even under 24 U/day of regular insulin, showing that she was accompanied by subcutaneous insulin
Mental health problems often appear at a young age. As the labour market places higher demands for education and competence, mental health services are focusing on young adults’ support needs for school and career opportunities. This study is a single case of an integrated supported education and employment unit in Sweden over an 18-month period. Multiple data sources illustrate the process of sup
Aim: Analysis of age at time of detection and surgery of dense unilateral cataract and investigation of best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in a nationwide register-based cohort study, based on the routine of maternity ward eye screening. Methods: Data were derived from the Paediatric Cataract Register (PECARE). All children (n = 54) diagnosed with dense congenital unilateral cataract between Janu
Ending the use of unabated coal power is a key climate change mitigation measure. However, we do not know how fast it is feasible to phase-out coal on the global scale. Historical experience of individual countries indicates feasible coal phase-out rates, but can these be upscaled to the global level and accelerated by deliberate action? To answer this question, we analyse 72 national coal power p
PURPOSE Heart failure (HF) is a potentially life-threatening complication of treatment for childhood cancer. We evaluated the risk and risk factors for HF in a large European study of long-term survivors. Little is known of the effects of low doses of treatment, which is needed to improve current treatment protocols and surveillance guidelines.METHODSThis study includes the PanCareSurFup and ProCa
De senaste åren har det kommit många prejudikat rörande medansvar vid kritisk kapitalbrist i 25 kap. aktiebolagslagen (ABL). I ett nytt prejudikat klargör Högsta domstolen när ett aktiebolags förpliktelse att lämna ersättning för rättegångskostnader ska anses ha uppkommit vid tillämpning av 25 kap. 18 § ABL. Trots den ofta upprepade utgångspunkten att reglernas ändamål är att verka handlingsdirige
I slutet av 1950-talet inledde Sveriges Scoutförbund utbildningssatsningen Stilskolan vid några av landets industri- och lärlingsskolor. Utbildningen utmynnade i ett samarbete med Svenska herrmoderådet, där organisationerna såg en möjlighet att utbilda ungdomar i frågor som rörde uppträdande och värderingar. I den här artikeln undersöker vi mer specifikt hur Stilskolan sökte väcka intresse bland uIn the late 1950s, Sveriges Scoutförbund (the Swedish Scout Association) launched courses for vocational schools called Stilskolan (lit. ”Style school”). A few years later, the Scout Association (from 1960 known as Svenska Scoutförbundet, the Swedish Guide and Scout Association) entered into a partnership with the Swedish Men’s Fashion Council, which provided material for the courses. The organisa
This article analyses sanctuary initiatives intended to change the situation of ‘irregularised residents’. Through fieldwork, three main activities are identified: assistance for welfare services, alternatives to inaccessible services, and inventing new ways of organising togetherness in the city. The role of activists in the initiatives links to discussions within Critical Human Rights literature
The politics of migration has become increasingly prominent as a site of struggle. However, the active subjecthood of people on the move in precarious situations is often overlooked. Irregular migration struggles raise questions about how to understand the agency of people who are marginalised. What does it mean to engage people produced as ‘irregular’ as active subjects of trans-border politics?
Transport and mobility systems need to be transformed to meet climate change goals and reduce negative environmental and social effects. Despite EU policies having targeted such problems for more than three decades, transitions have been slow and geographically uneven. For effective change to happen, transport and mobility research needs fresh perspectives and better integration of knowledge from
Background: Neurological injuries are frequent following Acute Type A Aortic Dissection (ATAAD) repair occurring in 4–30% of all patients. Our objective was to study whether S100B can predict neurological injury following ATAAD repair. Methods: This was a single-center, retrospective, observational study. The study included all patients that underwent ATAAD repair at our institution between Jan 19
Background: Women with current or previous drug use (WCPDU) have an increased risk of poor breast and cervical cancer outcomes. Screening is known to decrease the mortality of these common cancer forms, but screening participation has been sparsely investigated among women with drug dependency. The aim of this study was to assess participation in screening for breast and cervical cancer among WCPD
Treatment of bladder cancer patients depends on precise diagnosis. Molecular subtyping by gene expression profiling may contribute substantially to subclassification of bladder cancer. Several classification systems have been proposed. Most of these base their classification on whole biopsy features, and molecular subtypes are therefore often defined by a combination of features from the cancer ce
Introduction. Sleeping difficulties are common in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). A sleep intervention with weighted blankets was designed to increase current understanding of using weighted blankets to target children’s individual needs in connection with sleep and daytime functioning. Aim. To explore how children with ADHD and sleeping difficulties experience the u
Colorectal cancer (CRC), one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths in the western world, is the third most common cancer for both men and women. As a heterogeneous disease, colon cancer (CC) is caused by both genetic and epigenetic changes. The prognosis for CRC is affected by a variety of features, including late diagnosis, lymph node and distant metastasis. The cysteinyl leukotrienes (C
Although combined heat and power (CHP) production in Sweden is already largely decarbonised, this technology has further potential to alleviate pressing environmental concerns. Today, biobased CHP plants connected to district heating (DH) grids dominate the Swedish residential heating sector. The societal context in which CHP plants operate is, however, subject to continuous change. New aims and r
This chapter gives an introduction to the European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC) – a European Union (EU) policy tool introduced in 2009 with the purpose to set up and operate collaborative Research Infrastructures by granting them a legal personality and qualities of an international organization. The shared responsibility between the member states and the EU in the research and innova
Ionogels offer huge potential for a number of applications including wearable electronics and soft sensors. However, their synthesis has been limited and often relies on non-renewable or non-biocompatible components. Here we present a novel two-component ionogel made using just deep eutectic solvents (DESs) and cellulose. DESs offer a non-volatile alternative to hydrogels with highly tuneable prop
PURPOSE: The overall aim of this study was to describe experiences of discrimination due to inaccessibility among people using mobility devices.MATERIAL AND METHODS: We conducted a thematic qualitative analysis of 88 complaints about wheeled mobility device use, inaccessibility, and discrimination submitted to the Swedish Equality Ombudsman (DO) during 2015 and 2016.RESULTS: The analysis resulted
