Aim: To investigate the prevalence of eating and drinking difficulties as classified with the Eating and Drinking Ability Classification System (EDACS) in a large population-based cohort of children with cerebral palsy (CP) at all levels of motor function, and how EDACS classifications relate to undernutrition. Method: This was a cross-sectional study based on data from the Swedish CP follow-up pr
Introduction The Problematic Experience of Therapy Scale (PETS) identifies barriers to home-based exercise programs but has not been validated in hand therapy populations. This study aimed to translate the extended PETS into Swedish and evaluate its content and construct validity in patients undergoing early sensory relearning following peripheral nerve injury.Methods The PETS was translated into
A particularly well-studied evolutionary model is the vinegar fly Drosophila melanogaster, a cosmopolitan insect of ancestral southern-central African origin. Recent work suggests that it expanded out of Africa ∼9,000 years ago, and spread from the Middle East into Europe ∼1,800 years ago. During its global expansion, this human commensal adapted to novel climate zones and habitats. Despite much w
Although capacity development has been a key aspect of global aid policy for decades, success is limited. Capacity development is defined as a process, based on a partnership, to develop capacity to achieve a goal. The purpose of this thesis is to increase our understanding of why capacity development does not work as intended, and to inform the discussion on addressing the challenges. Two researc
European Environmental Research Infrastructures (ENVRIs) on the ESFRI level are core facilities for providing data, research products and services from the four subdomains of Earth system science – Atmosphere, Marine, Solid Earth, and Biodiversity/Terrestrial Ecosystems. The ENVRI Cluster represents the core component of the European environmental research infrastructure landscape, with the ENVRI
Introduction: Haemophilia A care has changed with the introduction of emicizumab. Experience on the youngest children is still scarce and clinical practice varies between haemophilia treatment centres. Aim: We aimed to assess the current clinical practice on emicizumab prophylaxis within PedNet, a collaborative research platform for paediatricians treating children with haemophilia. Methods: An el
Rapid and adaptable diagnostic capabilities are of great importance in the face of emerging infectious diseases. In an outbreak, timely establishment of diagnostic routines is crucial to identifying cases and preventing the spread of the disease, especially when faced with high-consequence pathogens. In this article, we describe a multiagency exercise including the rapid deployment and diagnostic
Astrocytes are one of the major cell types in the central nervous system and are indispensable for brain development and function. The human brain and human astrocytes have unique structures and functions that are not present in other animal species. Studies of fundamental astrocyte biology in humans and their role in neurological disease have been hindered by shortage of native human astrocytes f
Long-term survival after childhood cancer often comes at the expense of late, adverse health conditions. However, survivorship care is frequently not available for adult survivors in Europe. The PanCareFollowUp Consortium therefore developed the PanCareFollowUp Care Intervention, an innovative person-centred survivorship care model based on experiences in the Netherlands. This paper describes the
OBJECTIVES: A growing body of evidence links age related brain pathologies to systemic vascular processes. We aimed to study the prevalence and interrelations between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) markers of cerebral small vessel disease and patterns of brain atrophy, and their association to carotid duplex ultrasound flow parameters.MATERIALS AND METHODS: We investigated a population based ran
There is a widely regarded issue in Sweden, where its residents are categorized based on both their racial- and foreign affiliation, which may contribute to an individual's social exclusion from society. The categorization is based on a social construction with two opposite poles, “Swedes” and “non-swedes”, which causes concern for individuals with a foreign background as they become victims o
Stellar streams around the Milky Way (MW) have been observed by wide sky surveys, and studied to understand the mass distribution of the MW. This is because streams are formed by a disruption of a globular cluster or a dwarf galaxy under the influence of the gravitational field of the MW. Moreover, the streams can provide an understanding of dark matter because they orbit in the far outer region o
The purpose of the study is to analyze how HR analysts understand their prerequisites for using HR analytics in a way that is perceived as legitimate. Today, there are expectations on HR to become a function that uses digital tools to analyze personnel key figures. In parallel, however, prevailing expectations on maintaining legitimacy by working with relational issues supporting more soft values,
