Skyddsrum ska tillgodose civilbefolkningens behov av fysiskt skydd vid väpnat angrepp. Det har inte byggts några nya skyddsrum sedan 2002 men befolkningen har ökat. Totalförsvarsplaneringen har återupptagits med anledning av att den säkerhetspolitiska situationen i Europa har förändrats. Ett väpnat angrepp mot Sverige kan inte uteslutas. Av 3 kap. 9 § MB framgår att de prioriterade områdena för dThe purpose of shelters is to provide protection to the civilian population in case of war. Any new shelters have not been built in Sweden since 2002 but the population has increased. The national defense planning has been resumed because of changes in the security policy situation Europe. War against Sweden cannot be ruled out. According to the 3rd chapter 9 § The Swedish Environmental Code (MB)

Background High-dose aspirin (>= 500 mg daily) reduces long-term incidence of colorectal cancer, but adverse effects might limit its potential for long-term prevention. The long-term effectiveness of lower doses (75-300 mg daily) is unknown. We assessed the effects of aspirin on incidence and mortality due to colorectal cancer in relation to dose, duration of treatment, and site of tumour. Methods

BACKGROUND: Because hemodilution decreases the oxygen-carrying capacity of blood, it was hypothesized that severe hemodilution would decrease the tolerance to alveolar hypoxia. METHODS: Hemodynamics, oxygen transport, and blood lactate concentrations were compared in ten pigs with normal hematocrit (33 +/- 4%), and ten hemodiluted pigs (hematocrit 11 +/- 1%; mean +/- SD) anesthetized with ketamine

Popular Abstract in Swedish I den boreala och tempererade klimatzonen är växternas fenologi synkroniserad med årstidsväxlingar i temperatur och dagslängd. För lövträd påverkar tidpunkten för knoppsprickning och lövfärgning både tillväxt och risktagande. En förlängd växtsäsong till följd av ett varmare klimat innebär sannolikt högre produktivitet inom skogsbruket, men kan också leda till ökad risk Plant phenology in the boreal and temperate climate zones is synchronised with seasonal changes in temperature and photoperiod. For deciduous trees, timing of budburst and leaf colouring define the growing season length and express adaptations to trade-offs in growth and risks. An extended growing season due to climate warming will likely increase forest productivity, however these potential benef

Assessment of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in haemophilia is important in order to provide information for clinical decision making and to verify the impact of haemophilia on patients and their families. Advances in haemophilia care and prophylactic treatment have improved HRQoL for the patients and where treatment is available, patients with haemophilia have almost reached the same life

Background The perception of surgery as expensive and complex might be a barrier to its widespread acceptance in global health efforts. We did a systematic review and analysis of cost-effectiveness studies that assess surgical interventions in low-income and middle-income countries to help quantify the potential value of surgery. Methods We searched Medline for all relevant articles published betw

Popular Abstract in Swedish Utbredningen av besvär som attribueras till elektrisk utrustning respektive kemikalielukter och andra odörer är ännu ej till fullo fastställd. Vidare saknas kunskap om eventuella bakomliggande faktorer för dessa besvärs uppkomst. Syftet med avhandlingen var att undersöka utbredningen av besvär som attribueras till elektriska faktorer, kemikalier och lukter, samt undersSelf-reported annoyance from electrical equipment has been in evidence since the mid-eighties, and the first reports of illness from everyday chemicals arose already in the 1960?s. However, the extent of the problem or the mechanisms behind the development of environmentally related annoyance has not yet been fully established. Increased vulnerability to stress has been suggested to be a possible

With the increased occurrence of climate extremes, there is an urgent need to better understand how management strategies affect the capacity of the soil microbial community to maintain its ecosystem functions (e.g. nutrient cycling). To address this issue, intact monoliths were extracted from conventional and ecological managed grasslands in three countries across Europe and exposed under common

Aims. We study the dynamics and growth of dust particles in circumstellar disks of different masses that are prone to gravitational instability during the critical first Myr of their evolution. Methods. We solved the hydrodynamics equations for a self-gravitating and viscous circumstellar disk in a thin-disk limit using the FEOSAD numerical hydrodynamics code. The dust component is made up of two

Background: Chronic pain patients frequently suffer from psychological symptoms. There is no consensus concerning the prevalence of severe anxiety and depressive symptoms and the strength of the associations between pain intensity and psychological distress. Although an important aspect of the clinical picture is understanding how the pain condition impacts life, little is known about the relative

Objective: Needle acupuncture in small children has gained some acceptance in Western medicine. It is controversial, as infants and toddlers are unable to consent to treatment. We aimed to assess its efficacy for treating infantile colic. Design: A systematic review and a blinding-test validation based on individual patient data from randomised controlled trials. Primary end-points were crying tim

We present inverse modelling (top down) estimates of European methane (CH4) emissions for 2006–2012 based on a new quality-controlled and harmonised in situ data set from 18 European atmospheric monitoring stations. We applied an ensemble of seven inverse models and performed four inversion experiments, investigating the impact of different sets of stations and the use of a priori information on e

Background: Hyperuricemia (HU) is in the causal pathway for developing clinical gout. There are few population-based assessments of the absolute and relative risk of clinically diagnosed incident gout in subjects with HU. We aimed to explore the long-term risk of developing incident gout among asymptomatic adults with different levels of serum urate (SU). Methods: Malmö Preventive Project was a po

Background: Dementia with Lewy Body (DLB) is a neurocognitive disorder with core features, such as Parkinsonism, visual hallucinations, and fluctuating cognition/ excessive daytime sleepiness, and supportive features, such as rapid eye movement sleep behaviour disorder. DLB is often misdiagnosed and unrecognized in elderly individuals. A diagnosis of DLB is important because of the risk of hyperse

The thesis aims to compare two approaches to psychosocial rehabilitation – day centres and clubhouses – and to explore if either appears better suited to support people in mental health recovery. The recovery focus is on opportunities for engaging in meaningful daily occupations, accessibility to social interaction and factors pertaining to perceived health and well-being. The thesis consists of f

BACKGROUND: Opioids are still widely prescribed to long-term pain patients although they are no longer recommended for long-term treatments due to poor evidence for long-term efficacy, risks of serious side effects, and the possibility of inducing opioid hyperalgesia. In a Cochrane study from 2017, the authors identified an urgent need for more randomized controlled trials investigating the effici

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To date, large studies comparing mortality and functional outcome of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) during oral anticoagulant (OAC), antiplatelet, and nonantithrombotic use are few and show discrepant results. METHODS: We used data on 13 291 patients with ICH registered in Riksstroke between 2012 and 2016 to compare 90-day mortality and functional outcome following OAC-rela

Objective: To investigate the association of different aspects of cognitive impairment, depression and anxiety with walking difficulties in daily life in persons with mild PD.Background: Walking difficulties in daily life are common among persons with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and may cause falls and near falls, limitations in activity, restrictions in participation and decrease in quality of life.

Background: The impact of air pollution and road traffic noise on depression remains inconclusive. This study examined long-term residential exposure to air pollutants and road traffic noise in relation to dispensed antidepressant medications. Methods: A cohort study was conducted using the Swedish Malmö Diet and Cancer Study, with the outcome defined as a first dispensed antidepressant (ATC: N06A
