In my Ph. D. project, I study semantic change as it is described in the Swedish Acad-emy dictionary (SAOB). The starting point is five semantic labels that are established and highly frequent in the dictionary definitions, namely: bildlig (‘figurative’), oegent-lig (‘un-actual/non-factual’), överförd (‘transferred’), utvidgad (‘extended’) and all-männare användning (‘more general use’). These labe
Cataract surgery is the most commonly performed surgery worldwide. However, there is significant variation in practice both within and among countries. The European Registry of Quality Outcomes for Cataract and Refractive Surgery was established in 2007 to address this variation and improve the quality of care. Based on registry data from more than 500,000 surgeries, the registry developed the fir
Introduction: Investigation of bone marrow (BM) trephine biopsies and/or clot sections by CD34 immunohistochemistry (IHC) testing has been used by pathologists for several decades, and its clinical value has been well established with QBEND10 being the most frequently used primary antibody (Ab) clone. However, most other parameters related to the IHC protocol as well as the readout vary widely bet
Interdisciplinary research and education on human-environment relations has a natural place in many Anglo-American geography and anthropology departments. In Sweden, however, critical scholarship across the socio-natural divide has largely been outsourced to the interdisciplinary field of human ecology. Since the 1970s, Swedish human ecologists have sought to integrate perspectives from the social
Recognising the increasing complexities posed by climate challenges to urban environments, it is crucial to develop holistic capabilities for urban areas to effectively respond to climate-related risks, forming the backbone of sustainable urban planning strategies and demanding a comprehensive understanding of urban climate justice. It requires a thorough examination of how climate change exacerba
At the onset of the pandemic, Brazil’s Federal government approved an emergency basic income to be transferred to a variety of groups that had not earlier received any of the established welfare programs. Its implementation was however riddled with challenges. With a large informal economy, many Brazilian citizens were missing from the Federal Government’s registry and, even if registered, many di
The operational management of offshore wind farms includes inspection and maintenance (I&M) of the wind turbine support structures. These activities are complex and influenced by numerous uncertain factors that affect their costs. The uncertainty in the I&M costs should be considered in decision value analyses performed to optimize I&M strategies for the turbine support structures. In
An experimentally based prediction model of road abrasion wear due to studded tyres is available in Sweden and has been found to work well. However, it has not been validated since 2007, and since then road surfaces and tyre design have developed, and the question has arisen regarding the model’s current validity. The abrasion wear model is used in the NORTRIP emission model (NOn-exhaust Road Traf
Due to advances in technology, sampling procedures and short lag times between successive sampling, autocorrelation among the measured data has become common in most applications. Neglecting autocorrelation leads to a poor false alarm performance. In the current paper, the effect of the autocorrelation on the performance of a variable-parameters multivariate single control chart is investigated in
Variable parameters (VP) schemes are the most effective adaptive schemes in increasing control charts' sensitivity to detect small to moderate shift sizes. In this paper, we develop four VP adaptive memory-type control charts to monitor multivariate multiple linear regression profiles. All the proposed control charts are single-chart (single-statistic) control charts, two use a Max operator and tw
Objective: This retrospective, multicentre, observational study analysed patients who underwent endovascular repair for blunt traumatic aortic injury (BTAI) at four tertiary trauma referral centres over twenty years. It aimed to determine early and long term survival, to analyse aortic and device related complications, and to assess the re-intervention rate after endovascular repair for BTAI. Meth
This article focuses on teachers’ and principals’ experiences of aggressive emails in home–school collaborations with parents. Semi-structured interviews with 31 teachers and principals from primary, lower and upper secondary schools in Sweden were conducted. Three categories were identified in the material which illuminate the phenomenon of cyberaggression towards principals and teachers from par
In the plant-based beverage industry, a residue called okara, is generated in large quantities in the liquid-solid separation step. Despite the high nutritional value of okara from soy and oat beverages with respect to fiber and protein content, these residues are generally discarded or used as animal feed or compost. It would be more sustainable to utilize okara for human consumption, however, th
BACKGROUND: Recent advances now allow detection of brain-specific proteins in blood, including neurofilament light chain (NfL), a marker of axonal pathology, and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), indicative of astrocytic activation. Given the evidence of astroglial pathology and neuronal dysfunction in bipolar disorder, and ongoing debates on neuroprogression, we investigated plasma NfL and
Background: The existence of a “minority tax,” defined as the burden of extra responsibilities placed on minorities relative to non-minorities of the same position, has been documented across various fields, including and beyond medicine. This study sought to quantify the types and extent of the minority tax faced by minority orthopaedic surgeons, as well as evaluate the degree to which this work
PurposeThe purpose is to increase the understanding of when a heritage in the non-profit category becomes a part of the established heritage sector, and how this can be understood with regard to the rising awareness of climate change in heritage management and recent theories within the field. The case is Hindås Ski Jumping Hill in Hindås, Sweden, which since 2022 is a listed building in Sweden.De
