Thomson REVIEW CURRENT OPINION Genetics and its potential to improve type 1 diabetes care Copyrig 1752-296X Copyright 2017 Wolte Stephen S. Rich Purpose of review The genetic basis of type 1 diabetes (T1D) is being characterized through DNA sequence variation and cell type specificity. This review discusses the current understanding of the genes and variants implicated in risk of T1D and how gene

During the 1980s, Sweden faced a substantial intelligence threat from Soviet and Warsaw Pact attempts at collection and infiltration. Despite this, Swedish counterintelligence managed to launch several effective responses, including early detection of recruitment attempts and expulsion of a number of hostile intelligence officers operating under diplomatic cover. One part of this was the willing c

At the same time as our dependence on IT systems increases, the number of reports of problems caused by failures of critical IT systems has also increased. Today almost every system or service, e.g., water, power supply, transportation, is dependent on IT systems, and failure of these systems has serious and negative effects on society. In general, governmental organizations are responsible for de

This article argues that despite the fact that “good governance” has acquired a very particular set of meanings within the international development community, this remains an inherently contested and political concept. It traces the emergence of a good governance agenda within international development—and particularly within the World Bank—and identifies the important shifts that have occurred i

Osteoporotic fractures are one of the major problems facing healthcare systems worldwide. Undoubtedly, fragility fractures of the hip represent a far greater burden in terms of morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs than other fracture sites. However, despite the significant impact on the health and quality of life of older adults, there is a general lack of awareness of osteoporosis, which re

It is important to provide scientific knowledge of wheelchairs as occupant-protecting seats in motor vehicles. This study aimed at examining the situation in Special Transportation Services (STS), an important mode of transport for wheelchair users in Sweden. The perceived safety levels were assessed and examined, and extensive field experience was gained. During the study in three Swedish cities

The colorimetric 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was standardized for direct detection of rifampin-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis in sputum samples. The sensitivity and specificity of the direct MTT assay matched those of the standard indirect susceptibility assay on 7H10 medium, and interpretable results were obtained for 98.5% of the samples within

When designing compensation payments for biodiversity conservation measures setting appropriate incentives so that landowners select spatially connected land parcels for conservation is of key importance for many species. The proposition of an agglomeration bonus, where landowners receive a homogeneous payment and a bonus on top if the spatial allocation of conserved land benefits biodiversity, ha

Organization theory and management studies tend to underrate the importance of material and technological resources in accomplishing organized activities. Given the pervasive influence of technology in everyday life in organizations, surprisingly little attention is paid to the entanglement of technologies and practices of organizing. In organizations, a wide variety of technologies, ranging from

This paper presents an approximation model for optimizing reorder points in one-warehouse N-retailer inventory systems subject to highly variable lumpy demand. The motivation for this work stems from close cooperation with a supply chain management software company, Syncron International, and one of their customers, a global spare parts provider. The model heuristically coordinates the inventory s

Behaviour management problems (BMP) are common among children (4-12%) and the prevalence seems to be rising. Persistent antisocial behaviour often leads to poor long-term psychosocial adjustment. Structured parent-training programmes have proven to be the most effective way of treating BMP in young children. The Incredible Years Series (IYS), which is a manual-based programme, was introduced in Sw

När man som ägare av ett företag i Sverige bedriver verksamhet är det av stor vikt att hålla koll på vad ens företagande innebär i inkomstslagens mening. Är man som ägare också verksam i sitt företag riskerar man att bli annorlunda beskattad på eventuella utdelningar, detta kan få förödande effekter om man inte är medveten vad man gör men om man lär sig reglerna kring fåmansföretag kan man i stor When you own a company in Sweden, you must be aware of certain rules which could result in devastating consequences if you are not careful. These rules regard companies where their owners take big part of the daily business and specifically the dividend, in short, they mean that part of the dividend over a certain amount will be considered income of service which in Sweden is affected by higher ta

Personal assistants experiences of their work situation – A qualitative study of stress and coping. The purpose of this study was to examine how personal assistants reflect upon their situation at work, which difficulties and stressful situations that can emerge at their work, and how they manage to handle these difficulties. This study is relevant for the field of social work because lots of soc

The community fire protection programs, FireWise from the United States and FireSmart of Canada, aim to help protect individuals and communities from wildfires crossing into urban areas and destroying structures. As wildfires increase in severity and intensity in Sweden, and are predicted to continue doing so, it is important to investigate the possibility of implementing a similar program in Swed

The purpose of this study was to illustrate which conditions people with a service users perspective considers important to leave and avoid reccurence to crime. The study was based on qualitative interviews with five people who earlier have been in jail and today live socialy integrated in the swedish society. The theoretical perspective was based on social psychology with a principally base of so

Water vapor sorption isotherms are essential data in models to predict the service life of the cement based structures. The knowledge about sorption isotherms in the presence of supplementary cementitous materials (SCMs) is limited. This study investigates the influence of water to cement ratio (0.4, 0.5 and 0.6), and the presence of two SCMs (70% slag and 10% silica fume) on sorption isotherm in
