Background and purpose - Assessment of potential disparities in access to care is a vital part of achieving equity in health and healthcare. We have therefore studied the effect of socioeconomic status (SES) on the rates of knee and hip replacement due to osteoarthritis. Methods - This was a cohort study in Skåne, Sweden. We included all residents aged ≥ 35 years with consultations between 2004 an

The industrial exploitation of high value nanoparticles is in need of robust measurement methods to increase the control over product manufacturing and to implement quality assurance. InNanoPart, a European metrology project responded to these needs by developing methods for the measurement of particle size, concentration, agglomeration, surface chemistry and shell thickness. This paper illustrate
BackgroundCytoreductive surgery is central to the management of advanced ovarian cancer. As the extent of surgery varies widely, assessment of postoperative risk is challenging. The Karolinska Surgical Extent and Complexity Score (K-SECS) was developed to quantify surgical extent and has previously been associated with survival. This study evaluated whether K-SECS is also associated with major pos
Electric buses are increasingly popular in public transport systems globally, and in many European contexts, this transition takes place through public procurement. While previous research argues that electrification challenges existing procurement practices and strategies, the aim of the paper is to contribute new knowledge on the role of public procurement in the transition to electric buses andElectric buses are increasingly popular in public transport systems globally, and in many European contexts, this transition takes place through public procurement.

Highly glazed buildings are often considered to be airy, light and transparent with more access to daylight than traditional buildings, but their energy efficiency is often questioned. This article deals with energy and indoor climate simulations of single skin office buildings in Sweden using a dynamic energy simulation tool. Different building alternatives were studied with 30%, 60% and 100% win
Meta Isæus-Berlin at Skissernas museum Many visitors will surely remember Ett vattenhem (A Water Home), five strikingly ambiguous furnished rooms set out on a low podium in the middle of the main walkway at the Bo01 Housing Fair in Malmö in 2001. The Hall and the Bathroom, at opposite ends of the long and narrow, windowless pavilion, were open to the world and visible from outside. The Bathroom
The 14th edition of International Telecommunications Network Strategy and Planning Symposium (shortly: Networks 2010) held in Warsaw, Poland. Networks 2010 was a four-day professional and scientific event organized by Warsaw University of Technology in co-operation with Polish Association of Telecommunication Engineers (SIT). The conference was focused on network design and planning methods includ
Printed almanacs in the Danish language are preserved from the sixteenth century. The production of almanacs increased from the 1570’s just as that of news sheets, pamphlets, and chapbook stories. From the beginning the almanac covered a sheet of paper consisting of 16 leaves, or 32 pages. As a supplement, four or eight leaves of paper contained the Practica Astroligica. This form – 40 or 48 pages
This thesis describes experiments involving laser-plasma-based acceleration of electrons and protons, using the techniques of laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) and target normal sheath acceleration (TNSA). By using extremely high accelerating field strengths, up to the order of TV m-1, it is possible to reach high kinetic particle energies over very short distances.The multi-terawatt laser syste
MODELING LAND-COVER USING BIO-CLIMATE VARIABLES Vegetation (land-cover) is an inherent part of the climate system (M.-J. Gaillard et al. 2010). Natural, primarily climate-driven, vegetation and ecosystem processes interact with human land-use to determine vegetation patterns, stand structure and their development through time (e.g. Vitousek et al., 1997). The resulting land surface properties feed
Denna uppsats behandlar det svenska naturskyddets rättsutveckling från de första naturskyddslagarnas tillkomst i början av 1900-talet fram till idag. Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka naturskyddslagstiftningens utveckling vad gäller innehåll, motiv och bakomliggande miljöetisk natursyn. Undersökningen påvisar en rättsutveckling där lagstiftningen fått en ökad omfattning och högre ambitioner. Från
Environmental awareness increases, with demands for environmental certifications of new communities and buildings as a result. The introduction of climate friendly energy solutions is an important part of this sustainability development. Some examples of such solutions are solar collectors and heat pumps, which is why E.ON wants to investigate ways to combine small-scale, local solar collectors or
Forskare, jägare, kolonisatör examines Tierleben, German naturalist Alfred Brehm's magnum opus, with the purpose of discussing the work's relationship to colonial attitudes towards Africa prevalent in Europe at the time of its writing. The focus has been in examining how the nature of Africa, the European colonial presence and the relationship between European, African and animal are depic
The purpose of this essay is to study what people in Sweden today request regarding funerals. I want to investigate what people request and which of these requests can be met and which cannot. The material used are fifteen interviews I made with funeral officiants. Ten of those were with priests from The Church of Sweden, one with a vicar from the Catholic Church, one with a minister from a Serbia
Cambodia continues to experience a high prevalence of intimate partner violence (IPV) across the country. This may be attributed to the deeply embedded patriarchal customs that emphasize the subservience of women and authority of men. Previous literature has found that IPV may lead to negative health implications among victimized women, such as impaired well-being, unintended pregnancies, and HIV/
