Efter alla försök att stoppa användandet av bengaler är svenska supportrar nu mer organiserade. Om polis och politiker planerar att slå till igen bör de fundera över hur folket bidrar till byggandet av fotbollstraditioner, skriver debattören.
Cutting tools are generally subjected to harsh environments, such as high temperatures and pressures, during machining operations. In recent years, the introduction of surface engineering methods on CVD-coated carbide tools has led to significant improvements in their machining performance. However, the interplay between surface engineering process parameters and the resulting surface integrity of
This study examined developmental trajectories of vertical jump performance in young female basketball and volleyball players using Bayesian multilevel modeling. Eighty-one Brazilian female athletes (basketball: n=[jls-end-space/]46; volleyball: n=[jls-end-space/]35) aged 11-18 years were assessed between 2016-2024 in a mixed longitudinal design. Models examined longitudinal age-related changes in
Background: Artificial ultraviolet radiation (UVR) from solarium use has been linked to melanoma in some studies, while others report lower overall mortality. Whether melanoma risk is due to solarium use itself or to associated behaviors indicating intermittent solar overexposure remains unclear. Methods: The Melanoma of Southern Sweden (MISS) cohort included ~ 29,000 women enrolled in 1990 and fo
Purpose: To determine the molecular cause of the two epithelial recurrent erosion dystrophies, Dystrophia Smolandiensis and Dystrophia Helsinglandica, and to identify phenotypic differences between the two conditions. Methods: DNA samples and clinical data from structured interview records were obtained from the Swedish families in which Dystrophia Smolandiensis and Dystrophia Helsinglandica were
Inadequate bowel preparation remains a major barrier to high-quality colonoscopy, with taste aversion representing a common yet under-recognized contributor to poor tolerability of the bowel preparation. Current strategies primarily aim to improve palatability through formulation changes or dosing regimens. This paper proposes a novel, hypothesis-driven approach: transient pharmacologic suppressio
Background: Cobalt is a well-established cause of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD), but data on the skin absorption, toxicity, and immunological effects of cobalt nanoparticles (CoNPs) remain limited. Given the increasing use of nanomaterials in industry and medicine, understanding how cobalt speciation affects skin immune activation is of growing clinical relevance. Methods: Fourteen cobalt-alle
Background: Optimal treatment of T1 rectal cancer (RC) remains to be determined. The aim of this study was to compare recurrence rates after transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) and surgical resection according to risk groups. Material and methods: This registry-based nationwide cohort study collected data on patients diagnosed with pT1 RC undergoing TEM or surgical resection (January 2009–Dece
Central parts of the debate between theories of consciousness concern the proposed mechanism rendering a previously unconscious state X conscious. Here, I introduce a question that comes immediately before, namely why it is X-rather than some other unconscious state Y-that gets to enter the mechanism and become conscious. This is the selection problem: accounting for the mechanism that selects whi
Purpose: The aim of this exploratory study was to investigate different aspects of attitudes to intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW) among university students in Sweden, and whether those attitudes are related to students´ willingness to intervene in cases of IPVAW. Gender differences related to IPVAW attitudes and willingness to intervene were examined. Methods: The study was based on
Introduction – Adolescent depression poses a major public health concern with substantial clinical and societal implications. Both internet-delivered cognitive behavioural therapy (ICBT) and internet-delivered psychodynamic therapy (IPDT) have shown efficacy, but questions remain regarding long-term efficacy and cost-effectiveness. The present study presents a 12-month follow-up and cost-compariso
The development of new radar systems operating at sub-THz and THz frequencies with high-resolution imaging has led to new applications and enabled remote sensing for shortrange applications, such as non-destructive testing or surfaceroughness analysis. Furthermore, these remote-sensing systems open an opportunity to study downscaled real-life scenarios that involve long-range remote sensing in a c
Introduction Tattooing is common in many populations, yet population-based data on side effects remain limited. We aimed to describe the occurrence of self-reported acute- and delayed-onset side effects following tattooing and investigate individual and tattoo-related determinants in a Swedish population.Methods The Swedish Tattoo and Body Modifications Cohort includes 13 049 participants, of whom
Focus herein is on hydrogenous gases interacting with porous-carbon materials on activated biochar at pressures ranging from 0 to 100 bar and temperatures from room (ambient) to cryogenic. Neutron radiography was conducted using a custom-made cell system to simultaneously image pure gas and gas interacting with the porous carbon. From neutron attenuation, the cross sections of methane and ethane a
Purpose: Across many countries, primary care is under growing strain. Primary care clinicians face increasing workloads, costs are rising, and ageing populations are driving up demand for care. In this context, corporate actors with a for-profit objective are spotting opportunities to enter the “healthcare market,” bringing new forms of organisation and delivery into primary care. This process of
Vaccine candidates are typically identified through characterization of microbial surface antigens expressed under laboratory conditions. Here, we studied the major human pathogen Streptococcus pyogenes and showed that Slr, a lipoprotein encoded by all strains, is not detected on the bacterial surface during growth in broth but nevertheless is targeted by protective antibodies in vivo, as demonstr
International law provides for the autonomy of the Åland Islands. The source of this law (“the Åland Islands Autonomy Regime”) is far from clear and much debated. A literature survey furnishes five possibilities. Thus, the Regime may have been created: (i) by the conclusion of a bilateral agreement; (ii) by unilateral declaration; (iii) by the conclusion of a bilateral agreement and the tacit acce
Objective: To describe the epidemiology, organ involvement, histopathological patterns, and clinical management of immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) in Stockholm County, Sweden. Method: Patients with an International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision, Swedish Edition (ICD-10-SE) diagnosis of IgG4-RD recorded between 2019 and 2023 were identified from the Swedish National Patient
