A rapid increase in the prevalence of Streptococcus pneumoniae with reduced sensitivity to penicillin (MIC > or = 0.12 microgram/mL) was noted among clinical isolates during a 15-month period in 1994-1995 in the city of Malmo, Sweden. All first-time clinical isolates (n = 178) were consecutively collected and investigated for genetic relatedness with BOX-A PCR and arbitrarily primed (AP) PCR. An i

Objectives. The aims were to develop auditing according to the APO (Audit Project Odense) method for measuring soft data, exemplified by a holistic view, and to test the instrument. Design. A descriptive study of the development of an APO chart and a test registration. Setting. Primary health care, Blekinge County, Sweden. Subjects.

The aim of the present Study was to make a 16-year follow-up of children of psychosocial risk mothers as concerns emotional/behavioural problems, self-esteem, life events, and academic grades. Forty-three teenagers (index group) and 61 reference teenagers were personally interviewed and asked to answer the Youth Self-report (YSR), the Self-image questionnaire I Think I Am, and a Life Event questio

The aim of this study was to investigate quality of life (QoL) and its association with sense of coherence (SOC), complaints, comorbidity, social resources, perceived economic situation and receiving help for daily living, investigating differences between women and men aged 75 and above with cancer and comparing women and men aged 75 and above without cancer. A further aim was to identify which o

There is general consensus that children of women with pre-existing diabetes mellitus (PDM) have an increased risk of malformations and neurodevelopmental problems. Whether this is also true for children of women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a matter of debate. This study investigated inpatient hospital care up to 10 y of age of children born to GDM and PDM women as a rough estimate

Aim: To assess experience of care, well-being of parents and children's development in a cohort of extremely premature infants born <24 weeks of gestation in Sweden from 2007 to 2018. Methods: A survey based on multiple questionnaires answered by 124/349 (35.5%) parents. Results: The median age of parents and children was 43 and 9 years, respectively; 74.2% were mothers. Parents expressed high hea

Purpose: To determine and compare the sensitivity, specificity, and proportion of patients eligible for discharge by the Brain Injury Guidelines and the Mild TBI Risk Score in patients with mild traumatic brain injury and concomitant intracranial injury. Methods: Retrospective review of the medical records of adult patients with traumatic intracranial injuries and an initial Glasgow Coma Scale sco

När åtal mer eller mindre enbart vilar på målsägandens utsaga, vilket är vanligt vid våldtäktsfall där bevisningen ofta hänförs till uttryck för bristande samtycke eller bristande uppsåt, är det domstolens ansvar att värdera utsagan och avgöra om den uppfyller beviskravet. Syftet med uppsatsen är att granska och analysera hur denna värdering bör utföras samt hur den går till i praktiken. Engelsk rWhen an indictment, more or less, depends on the complainant’s testimony, as it often is in the case of rape when the evidence relates to the issue of consent or mens rea, it is up to the court to evaluate the testimony and decide whether or not it meets the standard of proof. The purpose of this paper is to examine and analyse how that evaluation should be performed and how it is currently perfor

Early-life conditions may have long-lasting effects on life history. In color polymorphic species, morph-specific sensitivity to environmental conditions may lead to differential fitness. In tawny owls (Strix aluco), pheomelanin-based color polymorphism is expected to be maintained because the brown morph has higher adult fitness in warmer environments, while selection favors the gray morph under

Background and purpose: Dementia disorders predispose for lethal complications and decrease life expectancy. A more profound knowledge regarding end-stage conditions in dementia could therefore ameliorate treatment and care of these patients. Methods: Autopsy reports on 207 deceased individuals with clinically diagnosed neurocognitive disorder/dementia and on 200 neurocognitively healthy individua

Medication packaging is essential to provide patients with guidance and correct use of their medicines for effective treatment. This research aims to increase knowledge about the medication packaging innovation process and its uptake towards patient‐centered packaging design. The study applied a qualitative research approach based on data from 25 in‐depth interviews with stakeholders involved in m

Newly constructed building stocks have been decreasing in last decades; thus, renovation and retrofitting represent a large amount of opportunities to upgrade the building performance and energy efficiency of building assets in their life span, as well as to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. An overall assessment of a lighting retrofit project can support to judge the quality of a retrofit as good

Våld i nära relationer har under många år varit och är än idag ett stort samhällsproblem. Det är ett problematiskt område som troligtvis har ett stort mörkertal och därmed är svårt att upptäcka. I vissa fall kanske våld i nära relationer inte upptäcks förrän det är för sent. Vilka möjligheter har brottsoffer för våld i nära relationer att freda sig själv och sin familj? Syftet med denna uppsats ärDomestic violence has always been a major social problem and still is. This kind of crime is often characterized by hidden statistics which makes it difficult to detect in many cases. What possibilities do victims of domestic violence have to protect themselves and their families? The purpose of this thesis is to examine the possibility to use preventive self-defense in cases of domestic violence.

Tidigare forskning har uppmärksammat en ökning av stressrelaterade symtom hos svenska skolungdomar. Ur ett folkhälsoperspektiv finns det vinster i riktade insatser till denna grupp, inte minst för gymnasieelever som står nära inträde till arbetsmarknaden. Ett begrepp som har uppmärksammats i relation till långvarig stress är utmattningssyndrom. Ett liknande symtomkluster som beskrivs i konstruktetStress-related symptoms are increasing amongst Swedish youth. Long-term stress can give rise to clusters of symptoms, as illustrated by the constructs exhaustion disorderand mental fatigue. This study explored these clusters with self-assessment forms Karolinska Exhaustion Disorder Scale (KEDS) and Mental Fatigue Scale (MFS) in a non-clinical high school population to find out whether the forms mi

Nödvärnsrätten regleras i 24 Kap. 1 § BrB. Den typen som är relevant för uppsatsen är nödvärn i förhållande till ”ett påbörjat eller överhängande brottsligt angrepp på person eller egendom,” vilken regleras i punk 1. Nödvärn är en objektiv ansvarsfrihetsgrund som kräver att brukaren gör avvägningar mellan angrepp och försvar för att handlingen inte skall anses som uppenbart oförsvarlig. Detta krävThe right to self-defence is regulated in chapter 24 § 1 of the swedish Penal Code. The type which is relevant to this paper is the one concerned with current or imminent criminal attack on a person or property which is found in the first point of the paragraph. Self-defence is an objective ground for discharge of liability. For the act of self-defence to not be considered obviously unjustified th

Many theorists have argued that vision and geometry have been given too much precedence within architecture and architectural representation. This thesis uses feminist theory that criticizes the way that space and the future traditionally have been represented. It discusses how the tools that architects use to describe space and future, can affect the how they think. The starting point for the dis

1 Submitting to Objects: Fetishism, Dissociation, and the Cultural Foundations of Capitalism This article discusses how the way humans relate to material objects is a fundamental aspect of modern capitalism. The aim is to reconnect the discourse on “fetishism”, the main thrust of which has become largely restricted to exploring personal phenomenologies of aesthetic or sensuous experience (cf. Apte
