I november 2021 beslutade den dåvarande regeringen att tillsätta en utredning för att göra en översyn av regleringen om frihetsberövande påföljder för unga. I augusti 2023 publicerades utredningen som ställer sig positiv införandet av s.k. ungdomsfängelser. Den frihetsberövande påföljd som i nuläget finns för unga lagöverträdare (15–17 år), utöver fängelse, är sluten ungdomsvård (och stadgas i 32 In November 2021, the Swedish government at the time decided to appoint an inquiry to review the regulations on custodial sanctions for young people. In August 2023, the investigation was published, which is in favor of juvenile prisons. The custodial sanction that currently exists for young offenders (15-17 years old), in addition to imprisonment, is "closed youth care" (and is stipulat

The purpose of this study was to investigate men's experiences of being subjected to domestic violence by their female partners, identify the consequences of this violence, and analyse barriers to seeking help or leaving the relationship. The goal is to understand the nature of the violence and its impact on the men involved. Two theories have been used to analyse the results: Goffman’s theory

BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious complication after major surgical procedures. We examined the incidence, risk factors, and mortality of patients who sustained AKI after abdominal surgery in a large population-based cohort.METHODS: All patients who underwent open and laparoscopic abdominal surgery (excluding genitourinary and abdominal vascular procedures), between 2007 and 2014

Aiming for the sixth generation (6G) wireless communications, distributed massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems hold significant potential for spatial multiplexing. In order to evaluate the ability of a distributed massive MIMO system to spatially separate closely spaced users, this paper presents an indoor channel measurement campaign. The measurements are carried out at a carrier

Detection of genotype-specific human papillomavirus (HPV) capsid antibody in serum suggests past HPV infection. Also, these antibodies appear to correlate with vaccine-induced protection against infection, at least in animal models. However, each laboratory defines a reactive result differently and there is no agreed definition of what level of response indicates sero-reactivity. Standardization o

Bipolar disorder has long been associated with increased risks for suicidality; though factors associated with dying by suicide remain obscure. Here, we retrospectively examine the associations between the different phases of bipolar illness and other common comorbidities with death by suicide in the 120 days following each discharge for Swedes first admitted as inpatients for bipolar disorder dur

Popular Abstract in Swedish Artiodactyla (partåiga hovdjur) är uppdelad i tre underordningar, Suiformes (grisar och flodhästar), Tylopoda (kameler och lamor) och Ruminantia (kor, hjortar, antiloper och giraffer). Studien syftade till att analysera släktskapen mellan de olika underordningarna och ordningen Cetacea (valar) genom att sekvensera mitokondrie DNA och jämföra sekvenserna. I våra släktskArtiodactyla (eved-toed ungulates) and Cetacea (whales) are two mammalian orders that are commonly recognised as sistergroups. Recently it has been suggested that Cetacea originated within Artiodactyla, but the relationships among the different artiodactyl lineages and Cetacea have not been conclusively established. In the present study the mitochondrial genome of the pig (Sus scrofa), the hippopo

BACKGROUND: Lynch syndrome is a rare familial cancer syndrome caused by pathogenic variants in the mismatch repair genes MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, or PMS2, that cause predisposition to various cancers, predominantly colorectal and endometrial cancer. Data are emerging that pathogenic variants in mismatch repair genes increase the risk of early-onset aggressive prostate cancer. The IMPACT study is prospect

Background and purpose — Reported revision rates due to dislocation after hemiarthroplasty span a wide range. Dislocations treated with closed reduction are rarely reported despite the fact that they can be expected to constitute most of the dislocations that occur. We aimed to describe the total dislocation rate on the national level, and to identify risk factors for dislocation. Patients and met

To preserve biodiversity and ecosystem services, company engagement is crucial. However, available data on manager views and perceptions regarding nature conservation in particular is rare. The presented survey data gives insights into current levels and forms of business commitments for nature conservation. The data contributes to understanding business attitudes towards voluntary conservation ac

We investigate here populations of cataclysmic variables (CVs) in a set of 288 globular cluster (GC) models evolved with the MOCCA code. This is by far the largest sample of GC models ever analysed with respect to CVs. Contrary to what has been argued for a long time, we found that dynamical destruction of primordial CV progenitors is much stronger in GCs than dynamical formation of CVs, and that

The field of molecular phylogenetics is being revolutionized with next-generation sequencing technologies making it possible to sequence large numbers of genomes for non-model organisms ushering us into the era of phylogenomics. The current challenge is no longer how to get enough data, but rather how to analyse the data and how to assess the support for the inferred phylogeny. Here, we focus on o

Uncertainty quantification (UQ) tasks, such as sensitivity analysis and parameter estimation, entail a huge computational complexity when dealing with input-output maps involving the solution of nonlinear differential problems, because of the need to query expensive numerical solvers repeatedly. Projection-based reduced order models (ROMs), such as the Galerkin-reduced basis (RB) method, have been

In what ways can various perspectives, aims, circumstances, and directives influence music students and music teachers in different educational contexts such as primary school, Schools of music and performing arts (SMPA), folk high school, and upper secondary school, viewed from a Nordic perspective?A common characteristic for all these types of schools is that they can be part of an educational a

Introduction Individual cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) with exposure and response prevention is an effective treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). However, individual CBT is costly and time-consuming, requiring weekly therapy sessions for 3-4 months. A 4-day intensive version of CBT for OCD delivered in group format has been recently developed in Norway (Bergen 4-day treatment, B

TP53 is the most frequently mutated gene in human cancer. This gene shows not only loss-of-function mutations but also recurrent missense mutations with gain-of-function activity. We have studied the primary bone malignancy osteosarcoma, which harbours one of the most rearranged genomes of all cancers. This is odd since it primarily affects children and adolescents who have not lived the long life

The traditional multiscale approach couples two models operating at different scales. An alternative modelling strategy, called peridynamics originally developed by [1], is to continualize the molecular dynamic models, thus replacing inhomogeneities present on smaller length scales by an enhanced continuum description on larger length scales resulting in a nonlocal reformulation of continuum mecha

Purpose: To report a family affected by familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) in which more severe disease phenotypes segregated with digenic rather than monogenic variants in FEVR-related genes. Methods: Phenotype was documented with high-resolution imaging of retinal structure and wide-field fundus photography. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) of known genes involved in FEVR was performed.

Reducing the prevalence of mastitis caused by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is essential to improve animal health and reduce economic losses for farmers. The clinical outcome of acute mastitis and risk of progression to persistent mastitis can, at least to some extent, be related to genetic variants of the strain causing the infection. In the present study we have used microarrays to investiga

To estimate the incidence and extension of visceral organ infarction, and to evaluate potential causes, in patients with autopsy-verified nonocclusive mesenteric ischaemia (NOMI) and transmural intestinal infarction. In Malmo, Sweden, the autopsy rate between 1970 and 1982 was 87%, creating possibilities for a population-based study. Amongst 23 446 clinical autopsies, 997 cases were coded for inte
