Background and hypothesis: KDIGO recommends proteinuria <1 g/d as a treatment target in patients with immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) because of high risk of progression to kidney failure. However, long-term kidney outcomes in patients with low-grade proteinuria remain insufficiently studied. Methods: We enrolled patients with biopsy-proven primary IgAN from the Swedish Renal Registry and anal

Aerosolised Polystyrene Latex (PSL) nanoparticles are, due to their well-defined size, spherical shape, and inert surface, useful in many experimental applications, including studies of particle deposition in the human lung. Aerosolising nanoparticles entails added challenges, and nanoparticles can potentially be more hazardous than otherwise equivalent microparticles. The objective of this work w

Conventional dairy sections are often small and most customers pass through them quickly. Arla saw this as an under-utilisation and launched a new concept called Dairy Square. This is a store within the store where the temperature is lower, the environment more pleasant for the customer and the interior specially designed to increase sales. The concept has so far been a success. Arla have complet

Jag kommer med denna uppsats behandla den juridiska konflikten vid distansförsäljning av alkohol i Sverige med koncentration på det rättsfall vars utgång kan komma att förändra Sveriges alkoholpolitik ännu en gång. Sedan Sverige trädde in i EU har de kvoter på den mängd alkohol som får föras in vid så kallad resandeinförsel höjts. Idag finns inga egentliga kvoter utan mängden bestäms utifrån begre

PURPOSE: There is a dearth of research on coping strategies of patients with malignant lymphoma. The aim of this article is to explore how these patients cope with cancer in everyday life.METHOD: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine patients in Sweden. A thematic analysis was made, inspired by Antonovsky’s theory of sense of coherence. The SRQR checklist was used.

In this paper we address the problem of resource allocation for alarm traffic in industrial Internet of Things networks using massive MIMO. We formulate the general problem of how to allocate pilot signals to alarm traffic such that delivery is guaranteed, while also minimising the number of pilots reserved for alarms, thus maximising the channel resources available for other traffic, such as indu

The Nordic countries have been described as generous front-runners in their development assistance, making observers suggest the existence of a ‘Nordic Model’. They have been claimed to play a leadership role in a European and global context.

Introduction/Objectives: The meta-analytical prevalence of paternal postnatal depression (PPND) is 8.4% (Cameron et al., 2016). However, measures for PPND are scarce and the commonly used Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) has low sensitivity, as many men express depression with somatization and/or externalizing symptoms. Recent studies show higher prevalences, indicating that affected me

In the last decade, the idea of total defence – a whole-of-society approach integrating civilian and military capabilities – has gained renewed prominence in Europe, including within the European Union (EU). Concurrently, the concept of strategic autonomy – the EU’s ability to act independently – has emerged as a central feature in its security policy, driving ambitions for ‘a quantum leap forward

Context. The nuclear stellar disc (NSD) of the Milky Way is a dense, rotating stellar system in the central ~200 pc. The NSD is thought to be primarily fuelled by bar-driven gas inflows from the inner Galactic disc. Aims. As part of the LEGARE project, we aim to construct the first chemical-evolution models for the NSD using a Bayesian approach tailored to reproducing the observed metallicity-dist

Retrospective, propensity-score-adjusted (PSA) studies have indicated to practitioners in the field that contrast-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) after contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) is of minor importance or even non-existent. This has led to controversies between clinicians demanding CECT not to miss any diagnoses and radiologists reluctant or even refusing CECT in risky patients. A critical revi

This article is an attempt to provide a very rough outline of the historical interaction between punk rock and the Muslim world. For the most part, the antino- mian youth culture of punk rock was relatively slow to reach Muslims outside of Europe and North America. When it did reach Muslim youth (from Europe to Asia to the Middle East), it tended to initially manifest in secular and antireligious

The transition to a low-carbon economy requires enabling technologies including energy-efficient lighting products. It is increasingly recognized that a sustainable economy is not only low-carbon and energy efficient, but also resource efficient. Previous research has highlighted the importance and need for increased collection and recycling of lamps, to reduce mercury emissions, to avoid unnecess

Critical scholarship on the intersection of development pathways and climate change responses highlights the roles of power, agency, social difference, intersecting inequalities, and social justice in shaping people's resilience in a rapidly transforming world. Yet, how to precisely increase the spaces in which people experiencing marginalisation can address power asymmetries and strengthen their

While it is widely acknowledged that entrepreneurial processes are embedded in an institutional framework, understanding exactly how institutions impact Entrepreneurial Ecosystems (EEs) remains a challenge. This is especially the case for informal institutions, and in particular those not directly related to entrepreneurship support. This paper contributes to this gap by addressing the question: H

Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture is crucial to reach global and regional climate targets. However, the efficiency of unilateral climate policies aimed at taxing emissions might be hampered by carbon leakage. One way to eliminate leakage is to implement a global carbon tax.
