Objective This study aims to investigate whether oral fluoroquinolone use is associated with an increased risk of aortic and mitral valve regurgitation. Design A nationwide cohort study based on linked healthcare register data encompassing patient characteristics, prescription data and cases of aortic and mitral valve regurgitation. Setting Sweden, 2006–2018. Participants Study participants were a

BackgroundAs primary health care forms the basis of the health care system, it is regarded as an efficient way to address main causes of, and risk factors for, poor health. In the Swedish health care system, general practitioners play a role in facilitating access to specialized health care and in coordinating care from other parts of the health care system. In Sweden, recent marketization efforts

Background: Many patients with psychotic disorders have persistent paranoid ideation and avoid social situations because of suspiciousness and anxiety. We investigated the effects of virtual-reality-based cognitive behavioural therapy (VR-CBT) on paranoid thoughts and social participation. Methods: In this randomised controlled trial at seven Dutch mental health centres, outpatients aged 18–65 yea

Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of relapse prevention (RP) as a treatment for internet gaming disorder (IGD). Design: Randomized controlled trial. Setting: Three child and adolescent psychiatry (CAP) units in Region Skåne, Sweden. Participants: Children aged 13–18 years, coming for their first visit to CAP during 2022, were screened for gaming behavior. Those who met the proposed DSM-5 c

BACKGROUND: European guidelines recommend that well-informed men at elevated risk of having prostate cancer (PCa) should be offered prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing with risk-stratified follow-up. The Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare recommends against screening for PCa but supports regional implementation of organised prostate cancer testing (OPT).OBJECTIVE: To report the proce

In practice, the catchment hydrologist is often confronted with the task of predicting discharge without having the needed records for calibration. Here, we report the discharge predictions of 10 modellers - using the model of their choice - for the man-made Chicken Creek catchment (6 ha, northeast Germany, Gerwin et al., 2009b) and we analyse how well they improved their prediction in three steps

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling utvecklar nya tekniker för analys av kointegrationssamband i paneldata. Det första kapitlet är en introduktion medan de resterande sex innehåller avhandlingens huvudsakliga bidrag. Det andra kapitlet behandlar estimering av kointegrationssamband när regressorerna är endogena, vilket medför att minsta kvadratmetoden inte längre är väntevärdesriktig om dThis thesis develops new techniques for analyzing cointegrated relationships in panel data. The first chapter is introductory while the remaining six contain the main contributions. The second chapter is concerned with the estimation of a cointegrated panel relation with endogenous regressors, in which case the least squares estimator is biased unless it is conditioned on the lags and leads of th

This thesis investigates parking in residential areas, in the context of today’s car dependent society. The aim is to study the demand for parking in residential areas and to contribute to the knowledge of how this kind of parking can be used for changing travel behavior towards less car use, by investigating the demand for parking and the importance parking facilities in residential areas on hous

Ett takeover-erbjudande är ett offentligt erbjudande till aktieägarna i ett noterat aktiebolag (målbolag) om att förvärva samtliga eller en del av deras aktier. Styrelsen i målbolaget intar en viktig roll vid förhandlingarna med köparen (budgivaren). Härigenom kan styrelsen potentiellt influera avgivandet eller genomförandet av ett takeover-erbjudande. Denna uppsats undersöker hur styrelsens handlA takeover bid is a public offer to the shareholders of a listed limited liability company (target company) to acquire all or some of their shares. The board of directors of the target company assumes an important role in the negotiations with the buyer (bidder). Hereby, the board can plausibly influence the launching and implementation of a takeover bid. This thesis examines how the board’s discr

I litteraturen vilken behandlar bevisvärdering går att finna två övergripande uppfattningar om bevisvärdering. Den ena är holistisk bevisvärdering, vilken utmärks av att bedömaren ser till helheten. Den andra är atomistisk bevisvärdering, vilken utmärkas av att bedömaren värderar varje bevis enskilt. Till båda dessa uppfattningar kan hänföras olika bevisteorier. Till holistisk bevisvärdering kan bIn the literature, which deals with the evaluation of evidence, two broad types of evaluating evidence can be identified. One of them is the holistic approach, which is characterized by the assessor engages in a global assessment of the evidence. The other is the atomistic approach, which is characterized be the assessor, evaluates each piece of evidence individually. For both of these two types,

Scientific abstract Soil moisture (rainwater accumulated over a period of time in soil) is considered one of the most important factors on vegetation growth in Sahel as the agriculture droughts usually associated with soil moisture deficiency. This thesis study investigates the correlation relationship between soil moisture and vegetation greenness in the Sahel region from 1982 to 2008 at differen

Purpose –The documenting and administration of society is becoming increasingly digital. In analogue preservation the archival material´s physical properties is instrumental in determining authenticity. Digital material on the other hand, is more dependent on intellectual control and metadata in order to maintain authenticity. It is the aim of this thesis to examine in which ways this digital auth

Background: With an increased life expectancy for the general population as well as for those ageing with chronic diseases, there are major challenges to the affected individuals and their families, but also to health care and societal planning. Most important, an increasing proportion of older people remain living in their ordinary homes despite health decline and disability. However, little is k

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Kvävekoncentrationen i den gröna biomassan hos vegetation är involverad i många olika biokemiska processer i det terrestra ekosystemet. Till exempel så påverkar den fotosyntesen, förmultning och evaportanspirationen, för att nämna några. Därför är den också ofta en av grundparametrarna och drivkraften i olika ekosystem-modeller. Att mäta kvävehalten hos blad/barNitrogen in the green biomass of vegetation plays an important role in many biochemical processes in the terrestrial ecosystems, and often used as an input parameter to ecosystem models. It strongly influences photosynthetic rate, decomposition, and evaportanspiration, to name a few. Measuring nitrogen in field involves a lot of time and money, and it would be valuable if this part of the data col

Introduction: Fast-track referral pathways for patients with nonspecific, serious symptoms have been implemented in several countries. Our objective was to analyze time intervals in the diagnostic routes of patients diagnosed with cancer at Sweden’s first Diagnostic Center (DC) for nonspecific symptoms and compare with time intervals of matched control patients. Methods: Adult patients with nonspe
