Studien syftade till att undersöka hur frikända personers medvetenhet förstås i domstolens motivering till att medvetenhetskravet inte är uppfyllt, hur dessa aspekter förhåller sig till psykologisk förståelse av förändrade medvetandetillstånd samt jämföra hur informationen som ligger till grund för rättsliga motiveringar förhåller sig till den rättspsykiatriska bedömningen. Studiens genomfördes i The aim of the study was to investigate how Swedish courts perceive the consciousness of acquitted individuals whose grounds for acquittal were lack of consciousness, and how such perceptions relate to psychological understandings of altered states of consciousness. Another aim was to explore how the information that forms the basis for the courts' reasoning corresponds with the content of the

The interest of implementing automated production has grown over the years in the industry of manufacturing. Replacing manual tasks with automated solutions has several advantages, such as improved efficiency, increased safety and better quality standards. Alfa Laval raised the challenge to find an automated solution for a currently manual process. The master thesis addresses the problem with the

Många svenskar upplever just nu en ekonomiskt ansträngd situation. Att ha privatekonomiska problem har i tidigare forskning visat sig ha kopplingar till psykisk ohälsa och suicidalt beteende. Mot denna bakgrund är det angeläget att vidare undersöka de faktorer som är associerade med privatekonomiska problem. Syftet med denna tvärsnittsstudie var att undersöka om finansiell förmåga, psykisk ohälsa,Many Swedish people are living under the weight of a financially precarious situation. Previous research has illuminated the steep cost of experiencing financial difficulties, finding relationships to psychological distress and even suicidal behaviors. Against this background, it is important to further examine the economic and psychological factors associated with financial difficulties. The pres

Depression, ångest och stress är närliggande former av psykisk ohälsa som ofta uppvisar betydande symtomatisk överlappning. Föreliggande studie undersökte hur enskilda frågor inom självskattningsinstrumenten PHQ-9, GAD-7 och PSS-10 relaterade till respektive skala samt till varandra bland universitetsstudenter, med fokus på vilka frågor som framstod som mest centrala och indikativa för variation iDepression, anxiety, and stress are closely related forms of psychological distress that often exhibit substantial symptomatic overlap. The present study examined how individual items within the self-report instruments PHQ-9, GAD7, and PSS-10 were related to their respective scales as well as to each other among university students, with a focus on which items appeared most central and indicative

In order to counteract the ongoing climate change, fossil fuels must be replaced with renewable alternatives in all sectors of society. The transport system is one of Sweden’s most important fossil dependent branches to redirect in this regard. Research suggests that biogas is a renewable alternative that in comparison with other biofuels seem to have a substantial potential and environmental adva

AimsThe absence of stent implantation when using drug-coated balloons (DCBs) may decrease the required duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). In the light of this, this study aimed to evaluate outcomes for patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACSs) treated with abbreviated vs. standard DAPT after DCB-only percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods and resultsPatients enrolled in th

North Sea-Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy (NS-PME) is a progressive neurological disorder, initially only associated with the homozygous GOSR2 founder mutation (c.430G>T; p.Gly144Trp). Clinical symptoms include untreatable early-onset ataxia, cortical myoclonus and epilepsy. Recently, the spectrum of GOSR2 mutations and associated phenotypic variability has expanded. To improve care and to facilita

Objectives: Endometriosis and Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are two common diseases with overlapping symptomatology, causing confusion and delay in the diagnostic process. The objective of this study was to identify differences between endometriosis and IBS diagnosed according to Rome IV, by comparing sociodemographic factors, lifestyle habits, and gastrointestinal symptoms.

Stratigrafiska analyser har utförts på en kustklint vid Ålabodarna i västra Skåne, vilken exponerar en skärning genom en liten dödisbassäng. Syftet med undersökningen var bl a att studera vegetationsutvecklingen i ett område som, i förhållande till övriga Skandinavien, tidigt blev isfritt. Fördelen med att arbeta med sediment i en öppen skärning i stället för i en borrkärna är att sedimentens latePopular abstract: A study of sediments from a small ancient lake basin in the cliffs at Ålabodarna, western Skåne, Sweden has revealed important information about the arrival and expansion of vegetation in the area. Western Skåne is a very important area for studies of this type, as the ice streams from the final episode of glaciation during the Late Weichselian retreated from this area early rela

Summary: This is an investigation of Early Holocene water level changes based on the sediments in two bays, Sörevik and Norrevik on Senoren, an island in the Karlskrona archipelago in eastern Blekinge southeastern Sweden. This area has experienced a number of transgressions and regressions since the last deglaciation at approximately 12,600 BP. The history of the Baltic is characterized by many dr

CT-based radiostereometric analysis (CT-RSA) is a method of measuring implant micromotion using low-dose CT scans. We evaluated the precision, accuracy, and observer reliability of CT-RSA for measuring femoral stem translation in THA in vitro. A cementless femoral stem was implanted in a synthetic femur mounted on a calibrated micrometer platform. Controlled translations were applied along each or

The digestion of food is known to have significant hemodynamic and metabolic effects where many have not been fully investigated. The potential effect of food intake could be interesting both from a physiological point of view and from a methodological point of view, as it could affect when blood samples are collected. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of food intake on 143

Background: Following the results of the MANDARA trial, this real-life study aimed at comparing the effectiveness and safety profile of mepolizumab versus benralizumab in a European EGPA cohort. Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational comparative study including EGPA patients, who received mepolizumab or benralizumab at the asthma dose. Patients were matched 1:1 by sex, age, BVAS and o

The nucleotide sequence coding for the beta chain of murine C3 was determined from cloned cDNA and genomic DNA fragments. Sonicated subfragments were randomly inserted into the bacteriophage M13 and sequenced using the dideoxynucleotide technique. Each nucleotide was sequenced on average six times in these studies. The derived amino acid sequence includes a signal peptide and a tetra-arginine sequ

Although antihypertensive drugs are known to reduce mortality in individuals with hypertension, the effects of different cardiovascular pharmacotherapies on mortality among patients with hypertension and atrial fibrillation (AF) have been less thoroughly explored. To study mortality rates in men and women separately with hypertension and AF prescribed different cardiovascular pharmacotherapies. A

Aim: Using a high-resolution 3D endoanal ultrasound, we have observed that some perianal fistulas show a hypoechogenic fistula tract surrounded by a well-defined hyperechogenic area with a thin hypoechogenic edge outside characterized fistulas in patients with Crohn's disease ("Crohn's Ultrasound Fistula Sign" (CUFS)), unlike conventional fistula tracks.. The study aimed to determine the prevalenc

Previous studies indicate that calcium and its regulating hormones, i.e. parathyroid hormone (PTH) and vitamin D, might affect breast cancer risk. Evidence also suggests that this relationship could be influenced by menopausal status and BMI. We examined breast cancer risk related to pre-diagnostic serum levels of vitamin D (25OHD(2) and 25OHD(3)), PTH and calcium using a nested case-control desig

Objectives: To determine whether the 5HTTLPR serotonin transporter polymorphism is associated with delusions and hallucinations in people with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Parkinson disease dementia (PDD). Design: Prospective cohort study. Participants: A total of 187 individuals, recruited from centres in Norway, Sweden, and the United Kingdom were included in this study; 97 with clinicall

Background: The spectrum of disorders of the brain is large, covering hundreds of disorders that are listed in either the mental or neurological disorder chapters of the established international diagnostic classification systems. These disorders have a high prevalence as well as short- and long-term impairments and disabilities. Therefore they are an emotional, financial and social burden to the
