Abstract in Spanish A pesar de que el mercado laboral sueco ha permanecido relativamente intacto durante la crisis económica en los últimos seis años, la integración de personas con capacidad laboral reducida a causa de discapacidades es significativamente menor que la de otros grupos sociales. La legislación sueca sobre discapacidad y trabajo cubre varios aspectos en medidas de integración, antidEven though the Swedish labour market has been more or less intact during the financial crisis in the past six years, persons with reduced working capacity due to disabilities are significantly less integrated in the labour market than other groups in society. Swedish legislation on disability and work provides for a number of different aspects of integrative measures, anti-discrimination and prov

Context: MicroRNAs (miRNA) are noncoding RNAs that post- transcriptionally regulate gene expression. Their altered expression and function have been observed in most urologic cancers. MiRNAs represent potential disease biomarkers and novel therapeutic targets. Objective: To review and evaluate the evidence implicating miRNAs in the pathogenesis of prostate cancer (PCa), bladder cancer (BCa), and r

Previous fracture is a well-documented risk factor for future fracture. The aim of this study was to quantify this risk on an international basis and to explore the relationship of this risk with age, sex, and bone mineral density (BMD). We studied 15259 men and 44902 women from 11 cohorts comprising EVOS/EPOS, OFELY, CaMos, Rochester, Sheffield, Rotterdam, Kuopio, DOES, Hiroshima, and two cohorts

Type 1 diabetes is characterized by autoimmurte destruction of pancreatic beta-cells in genetically susceptible individuals. Triggers of islet autoimmunity, time course, and the precise mechanisms responsible for the progressive beta-cell failure are not completely understood. The recent escalation of obesity in affluent countries has been suggested to contribute to the increased incidence of type

Background: Although widely used, the validity and reliability of the Clavien classification of postoperative complications have not been tested in urologic procedures, such as percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Objective: To validate the Clavien score and categorise complications of PCNL. Design, setting, and participants: Data for 528 patients with complications after PCNL were used to create

Context: Newly discovered biomarkers ideally should prove clinical usefulness, provide additional detection, staging, and prognosis information to improve individual risk assessment, and potentially permit targeted cancer therapy. Objective: To review, display, and evaluate the current evidence regarding the biologic and analytic approach of urinary prostate cancer gene 3 (PCA3) in prostate cancer

"Härdelin the Hymnist" Alf Härdelin (1927–2014) was a Swedish theologian and medievalist. In addition to a large academic output, he wrote eleven original hymns and translated 213 from Latin or German into Swedish. This article begins by showing how integrated this activity was with Härdelin’s theological work: both as an academic and as a hymnist he followed the Dominican adage, contemplata alii

Objective Two functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the PTPN22 gene (rs24746601 and rs33996649) have been associated with autoimmunity. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of the R263Q SNP for the first time and to re-evaluate the role of the R620W SNP in the genetic predisposition to systemic sclerosis (SSc) susceptibility and clinical phenotypes. Methods 3422 SSc pati

The incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) promotes glucose homeostasis and enhances -cell function. GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, which inhibit the physiological inactivation of endogenous GLP-1, are used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Using the Metabochip, we identified three novel genetic loci with large effects (30-40%) on G

Aim. The aim of this paper was to evaluate short-term outcome of the use of endoanchors to secure the primary migrated endograft and additional extender cuffs to the aortic wall in patients with previous failed endovascular aortic aneurysm repair. Methods. Consecutive patients who needed proximal repair of a primary failed endograft due to migration (with or without type IA endoleaks) were treated

The importance of prioritising requirements is widely recognised. A number of different techniques for prioritising requirements have been proposed, some based on an ordinal scale, others on a ratio scale. Some measurement scales provide more information than others, i.e. the ratio scale is richer than the ordinal scale. This paper aims to investigate the differences between the scales used in pri

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are blood cancers that are characterized by the excessive production of mature myeloid cells and arise from the acquisition of somatic driver mutations in haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Epidemiological studies indicate a substantial heritable component of MPNs that is among the highest known for cancers1. However, only a limited number of genetic risk loci ha

Anthropogenic activities such as intensification of agriculture, animal husbandry and expansion of cities can negatively impact wildlife through its influence on the availability of high-quality food resources and pathogen transmission. The house sparrow (Passer domesticus), an urban exploiter, is undergoing a population decline. Nutritional constrains and infectious diseases has been highlighted

Tau neurofibrillary tangle (NFT) pathology in the medial temporal lobe (MTL) is closely linked to neurodegeneration, and is the early pathological change associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). To elucidate patterns of structural change in the MTL specifically associated with tau pathology, we compared high-resolution ex vivo MRI scans of human postmortem MTL specimens with histology-based patho

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) for medicine and health care is rapidly evolving. However, the automation, scale and data dependency of AI-driven decision-making and decision-support calls for a reassessment of principal ethical and legal norms of transparency, in the light of these novel methodologies. The quality of AI-driven health care, we argue, is depending on it. In this cha

Purpose: Previous studies using FLASH radiotherapy (RT) in mice showed a marked increase of the differential effect between normal tissue and tumors. To stimulate clinical transfer, we evaluated whether this effect could also occur in higher mammals. Experimental Design: Pig skin was used to investigate a potential difference in toxicity between irradiation delivered at an ultrahigh dose rate call

Uppsatsen undersöker hur den danske 1400-talsöversättaren av Thomas à Kempis’ Quattuor libri de imitatione Christi transformerar latinets genitivkonstruktioner till gammaldanska. Särskilt intresse vigs åt omskrivande översättningsförsök, i synnerhet dem medelst preposition. Det konstateras ett samband mellan omskrivning medelst preposition och latinska verbalsubstantiv resp. gerundier böjda i geni

I denna uppsats jämförs de svenska häktnings- och restriktionsreglerna med motsvarande norska och danska regler. Uppsatsens syfte är att, utifrån skillnader mellan regelverken, undersöka vilka rättspolitiska argument som kan göras gällande för att de svenska häktnings- och restriktionsreglerna borde ändras. I uppsatsen används två metoder, komparativ metod och rättsanalytisk metod. Den komparativaIn this paper, the Swedish law regarding pre-trial detention and restrictions against detained persons are compared with equivalent Norwegian and Danish laws. On the basis of differences between Swedish law compared with Danish and Norwegian law, the survey’s purpose is to study which justice political argument that can be made for a change of the Swedish law regarding detention and restrictions a

En delägare som innehar kvalificerade andelar i ett fåmansföretag omfattas av de s.k. 3:12-reglerna som innebär att utdelning och kapitalvinst till viss del ska beskattas i inkomstslaget tjänst i stället för i inkomstslaget kapital. Om delägaren ska överlåta företaget kan han eller hon inom lagens gränser vidta en rad åtgärder för minska och senarelägga skatten som ska betalas för kapitalvinsten. A shareholder who holds qualified shares in a closely held company is subject to a special set of tax rules named the 3:12 rules. These rules lead to shareholders’ dividends and capital gains to some degree being taxed as labor income instead of capital income. If the shareholder should transfer the company, it is possible – within the boundaries of the law – to make some arrangements to reduce an
