Despite increasing focus on the role of fathers in the face of changing societal norms, we still do not understand men’s transition to fatherhood and how it may be related to his and other family members’ well-being. Given evidence of an association between psychological parameters of this transition and postnatal depressive symptoms, we explored longitudinal paths between expectant fathers’ paren
This essay concerns the complementation of the English emotive verbs like, love, hate and prefer. In English, gerund-participial and infinitival complements often receive semi-synonymous semantic interpretations when complementing emotive verbs. All the while, both complement types supposedly convey separate semantic interpretations, resulting in that they commonly appear in contexts expressing ha
Objective : To determine the association between health-risk behaviors and a history of sexual coercion among urban Chinese high school students. Design : A cross-sectional study was performed among 109,754 high school students who participated in the 2005 Chinese Youth Risk Behavior Survey. Data were analyzed for 5,215 students who had experienced sexual intercourse (1,483 girls, 3,732 boys). Mul
The objectives of the present study were to estimate long-term risks of osteoporotic fractures. The incidence of hip, distal forearm, proximal humerus and vertebral fracture were obtained from patient records in Malmo, Sweden. Vertebral fractures were confined to those coming to clinical attention, either as an inpatient or an outpatient case. Patient records were examined to exclude individuals w
Traditional measures for improved traffic safety need to be complemented by modern technologies in the struggle to reduce the consequences of traffic accidents all over the world. This thesis introduces the Loyal Speed Adaptation (LSA) function based on recent developments in the area of Intelligent Transport Sys-tems to support the vehicle drivers in not using inappropriate or excessive speeds, w
The aim of this study was to demonstrate electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI) as a powerful tool in determining diffusion coefficients and partition coefficients for proteins in gels. ESPI employs a CCD camera instead of a holographic plate as in conventional holographic interferometry. This gives the advantage of being able to choose the reference state freely. If a hologram at the,re
Irritable bowel syndrome has a negative impact on a person's quality of life, but only a few existing studies have been based on patients' own perceptions. This study therefore aimed to collect information on the view of female patients with irritable bowel syndrome regarding what constitutes a good quality of life for them and to create a healthcare model for these patients. For the study, 30 wom
BACKGROUND: There are few data on how patients on maintenance treatment of reflux oesophagitis take their medication. This study was designed to investigate the dosing patterns of patients on on-demand treatment and to compare lansoprazole with omeprazole in this regard. METHODS: Patients with reflux oesophagitis, initially treated until absence of symptoms, took capsules of either lansoprazole (3
Abstract Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the key factors that contribute to the success of corporate apologies issued in response to a crisis. Methodology: This paper uses a qualitative research method. The primary data was collected in the form of case studies of 30 apologies across three decades and multiple industries. These cases were analyzed using relevant theories foun
With aging populations, unequal access to care, and shortages of staff, healthcare systems today are facing many challenges. Technology advancements, with artificial intelligence (AI) in particular, have been one of the main drivers of innovation in multiple industries. Although the healthcare sector is moving slower compared to other industries, there is great potential for relieving healthcare w
Det har sagts att alla arkitekturepoker brukar nå sitt bottenmärke någonstans runt 30 år. Under en praktik på ett arkitektkontor upplevde jag det på egen hand när jag arbetade med ett område i Stockholm. Strategin för området är att riva stora delar av dess bebyggelse från 80- och 90-talet. Jag uppfattar strategin som ett uttryck för en allmän impopularitet av arkitekturen från denna period — den
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore how consumers navigate and justify their consumption habits while striving for a more sustainable identity. The study examines the internal dilemmas that arise when sustainable values confront the realities of identity expression and social influence. Methodology: A qualitative research approach was adopted, in the form of in-depth interviews, invo
XXXX, 1–39 © De Gruyter YYYY Numerical Methods for Unsteady Thermal Fluid Structure Interaction Philipp Birken and Azahar Monge Abstract. We discuss thermal fluid structure interaction processes, where a simulation of the time dependent temperature field is of interest. Thereby, we consider partitioned coupling schemes with a Dirichlet-Neumann method. We present an analysis of the method on a mode

Objectives: To evaluate the impact of the 2018 switch from PCV13 to PCV10 in Sweden’s childhood immunisation programme on the serotype distribution of Streptococcus pneumoniae.MethodsRespiratory tract (RT) S. pneumoniae isolates (n=1615; 2020–2023) were serotyped, tested for antimicrobial susceptibility and compared with invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) isolates (n=397) and PCV13-era data (2016
The purpose was to study the prognostic and predictive roles of DNA protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs), Ku70/80 and p53 for the effect of radiotherapy in breast cancer patients. Protein expressions of Ku70/80, DNA-PKcs and p53 were examined using immunohistochemistry in tumours from 224 breast cancer patients, who were randomised to receive post-operative radiotherapy or adjuvant chemothe
A major challenge for a person with diabetes is to adapt insulin dosage regimens and food intake to keep blood glucose within tolerable limits during daily life activities. The early knowledge about the effects of inputs on glycemia would provide the patients with invaluable information for appropriate on-the-spot decision making concerning the management of the disease. Against this background, i
Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, inflammatory, and systemic disease with symptoms that limit activities and affect quality of life. RA is associated with an increased risk of developing comorbidities, some of which are also known to be associated with lifestyle habits such as physical activity, diet, smoking, and alcohol. There has been an augmented focus on the implementation
Infantile malignant osteopetrosis (IMO) is a rare, recessive disorder characterized by increased bone mass caused by dysfunctional osteoclasts. The disease is most often caused by mutations in the TCIRG1 gene encoding a subunit of the V-ATPase involved in the osteoclasts capacity to resorb bone. We previously showed that osteoclast function can be restored by lentiviral vector-mediated expression
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE—: Compared with ischemic stroke (IS), the association of atrial fibrillation (AF) with transient ischemic attack (TIA) is less well established. We aimed to assess the proportion of AF in patients with TIA, and these patients’ characteristics and secondary preventive treatment in comparison to patients with IS. METHODS—: Hospital-based data on TIA and IS events, registered f
