Background and Purpose: Possibilities to age in place are increasingly important with the demographic shift toward aging populations. With the Person-Place Fit Measure for Older Adults (PPFM-OA), older adults self-assess how their home and community environments suit their needs. The aim of the study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Swedish version of PPFM-OA. Methods: Four hund
Aims and objectives:This article investigates naturalistic acquisition of a second dialect (D2), comparing the global accent of speakers of Brazilian Portuguese (BP) exposed to European Portuguese (EP), either as children or as adults (early vs late bilectals). The focus is on the predicted advantage of an early age of onset of the D2, as well as possible crosslinguistic influence from the D2 onto
Aims and background: Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) is increasingly applied in clinical practice and expected to replace standard-of-care (SoC) genetic diagnostics in hematological malignancies. This study aims to assess and compare the fully burdened cost (‘micro-costing’) per patient for Swedish laboratories using WGS and SoC, respectively, in pediatric and adult patients with acute lymphoblastic

It is commonly assumed that European integration empowers prime ministers at the expense of cabinet ministers and parliamentary actors. This article follows the suggestion that an increase in cabinet reshuffles indicates power shifts in favour of the PM, and studies reshuffles in two countries that have been involved very differently in the process of European integration, Germany and Sweden. It h
Background: The observation of differences in the way apparently similar patients are treated from one health care setting to another, i.e., practice variation, have been recognized in numerous studies. The variations across the health care settings have been shown to exist for different outcomes. However, any measurement of any system will reveal some form of variation and this normal inevitable
Popular Abstract in Swedish Folkligt deltagande är något av en paroll i dagens utvecklingstänkande. När människor deltar i beslutsfattande och samhällsplanering på lokal nivå blir resultatet bättre och mer anpassat till lokala behov, särskilt i jämförelse med expertorienterade och centraliserade utvecklingsstrategier. Samtidigt kräver detta att folk i allmänhet vill delta och de har ett intresse a
Objective To examine change in health-related quality of life in association with clinical outcomes of neuropsychiatric events in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods An international study evaluated newly diagnosed SLE patients for neuropsychiatric events attributed to SLE and non-SLE causes. The outcome of events was determined by a physician-completed seven-point scale and compared with

Linné glacier has retreated approximately 1.8 km since 1936 and 1 km between 1995 and 2019. Linné glacier is following the same trend as other glaciers around Svalbard. Linné glacier is a well-monitored glacier with a time series of air temperature, incoming solar radiation and snow height data since 2003. Annual recordings of the glacier margin from 2007, allows for an accurate reconstruction of
Torslandacontainern: An ethnological study of solidity on four wheels. In a modern social landscape where high technology progression changes human-material relationships, the way we value durability, lifespan and capacity of the objects we consume alters. When ordinary daily life centers towards digital spheres our contact with objects formerly valued as rigid and solid becomes increasingly alie
The purpose of this thesis is to examine if there is a cost, in terms of lower risk-adjusted returns, associated with using ESG factors in the portfolio creation process. The ability of using an ESG Smart Beta strategy, to outperform a passive cap-weighted index and a regular Smart Beta strategy in terms of risk-adjusted returns, was examined. By adopting a Smart Beta methodology, seven different
Research on InterStellar Objects (ISOs) has been done for several decades, however, the first observed ISO in the Solar system was only recently discovered in 2017. It was named 1I/'Oumuamua and was only passing though the Solar system, but this may not be the case for all objects of its kind. For instance, one could gain a bound orbit around the Sun if the right amount of nudge is acquired wh
Purpose: To evaluate whether ETFs have outperformed index mutual funds on the European market during the period 2009-2019. Methodology: The method is based on quantitative data acquired from Thomson Reuters Eikon as well as Bloomberg terminal. Historical returns are processed and analyzed using selected performance measures. Theoretical perspectives: Theories are applied to compare the returns o
In times of rising populism, this paper aims to study if deliberative democracy and deliberation in general, can function as a counteracting tool against populists movements. By discussing perspectives of both sides of the deliberative democratic debate, the paper illuminates both beneficial factors and potential drawbacks of the deliberative form of democracy when it comes to counteracting populi
Sugammadex shows a dose-response relationship for reversal of neuromuscular block (NMB) during propofol anaesthesia. Sevoflurane, unlike propofol, can prolong the effect of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs), increasing recovery time. This open-label, randomized, dose-finding trial explored sugammadex dose-response relationships, safety, and pharmacokinetics when administered for reversal of mo
Back-arc volcanism in the western Argentinian provinces of Mendoza and Neuquen has been widespread from the Miocene to historic times. We present a detailed investigation of profiles through two of the major Miocene volcanic areas of the region, the neighboring Huantraico and La Matancilla plateaus, including new Ar-40/Ar-39 age results of major and trace elements as well as Nd, Sr and Pb isotopic
A Driver Assistance System for Continuous Support continuously evaluates the status of the host vehicle as well as the surrounding traffic based on information from on-board sensors. When the system detects a hazard, it issues a warning to the driver, depending on the degree of the hazard. The effects of this system on driver behaviour and acceptance were evaluated in a field trial carried out in
Objective To determine the pharmacodynamic properties of a new oral lyophilisate formulation of desmopressin (in single doses of 30, 60, 120, 240, 360 or 480 mu g) in children with known primary nocturnal enuresis (PNE) and thus identify those dosages that could provide a duration of action corresponding to a typical length of night-time sleep in children with PNE; additional objectives were to de
Type and duration of fetal asphyxial insult affect the distribution of blood flow to the heart and brain. The purpose of this study was to describe dynamic and quantitative changes in regional myocardial and cerebral blood flow (CBF) during fetal asphyxia induced by total occlusion of the umbilical cord. Eleven exteriorized fetal sheep were subjected to total umbilical cord occlusion and five feta
