Background: An accurate medication list at hospital admission is essential for the evaluation and further treatment of patients. The objective of this study was to describe the frequency, type and predictors of errors in medication history, and to evaluate the extent to which standard care corrects these errors.Methods: A descriptive study was carried out in two medical wards in a Swedish hospital
Background: Early-life physical fitness has rarely been examined in relation to type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) in adulthood because of the lengthy follow-up required. Elucidation of modifiable risk factors at young ages may help facilitate earlier and more effective interventions. Objective: To examine aerobic capacity and muscle strength at age 18 years in relation to risk for type 2 DM in adultho
Background: Mortality among critically ill COVID-19 patients has varied globally. In Sweden, geographic differences in mortality have also been observed. The current study aimed to determine whether mortality differences persist after adjusting for differences in case-mix, and to identify potential independent factors contributing to regional variations in mortality. Methods: We conducted a multic
Introduction: Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) may cause stress-induced transient acute cardiac dysfunction through myocardial stunning, in the form of exacerbation-triggered Takotsubo syndrome (referred to as Takotsubo stunning). Although prior studies suggest an association between AECOPD and transient cardiac dysfunction, existing evidence is limited to retro
Estimation of kidney function is often part of daily clinical practice, mostly done by using the endogenous GFR-markers creatinine or cystatin C. A recommendation to use both markers in parallel in 2010 has resulted in new knowledge concerning the pathophysiology of kidney disorders by identification of a new set of kidney disorders, selective glomerular hypofiltration syndromes. These syndromes,
The parents’ attitude toward vaccinating children and adolescents against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) remains inconsistent and needs further elucidation. The high rates of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region require intensive research to understand the determinants of this phenomenon. This study aimed to validate a version of the Parent Attitudes ab
Purpose: Acute trauma-related rotator cuff tears are believed to have better healing potential than chronic tears due to less degenerative changes of the tendons. However, the histopathological condition of tendons from trauma-related tears is not well investigated. The purpose of this study was to explore specific histopathological features in tendons from acute trauma-related full-thickness rota
ObjectiveMepolizumab proved to be an efficacious treatment for eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) at a dose of 300 mg every 4 weeks in the randomized, controlled MIRRA trial. In a few recently reported studies, successful real-life experiences with the approved dose for treating severe eosinophilic asthma (100 mg every 4 weeks) were observed. We undertook this study to assess the
Objectives:This thesis aims to provide an overview of the epidemiology of AAV in southern Sweden, to evaluate different classification criteria in AAV. In addition we study if infection is a risk factor for later development of AAV comparing patients with AAV with a matched population cohort and to examine the occurrence of severe infections as an outcome in AAV. Methods:All adult patients diagnos
Rationale & Objective: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is complicated by abnormalities that reflect disruption in filtration, tubular, and endocrine functions of the kidney. Our aim was to explore the relationship of specific laboratory result abnormalities and hypertension with the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria CKD staging framework. Study Design: Cross-sectional in
Background: Adolescent depression is a common mental health problem and there is an urgent need for effective and accessible treatments. Internet-based interventions solve many obstacles for seeking and receiving treatment, thus increasing access to effective treatments. Internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy (ICBT) for adolescent depression has demonstrated efficacy in previous trials. In o
Introduction: In a cold,wet, or windy environment, cold exposure can be considerable for an injured or ill person. The subsequent autonomous stress response initially will increase circulatory and respiratory demands, and as body core temperature declines, the patient’s condition might deteriorate. Therefore, the application of adequate insulation to reduce cold exposure and prevent body core cool
Objective: To explore the risk of colorectal cancer in family members of patients with colorectal cancer, with an emphasis on subtypes of second degree relatives, especially half siblings, which were lacking in the literature. Design: Ambidirectional cohort study. Setting: Nationwide Swedish Family Cancer Data (record linkage). Participants: All people residing in Sweden and born after 1931, with

En tillförlitlig non-invasiv metod bHeart diseases in children cause different combinations of myocardial hypertrophy, increased intra-ventricular pressures, volume overload and decreased oxygen saturation. This may affect basal coronary flow and the ability of the heart to maximally increase coronary flow. Transthoracic and intracoronary Doppler techniques were used to register coronary flow and coronary flow reserve (CFR) in norma
Popular Abstract in Swedish Proteinkinas C i nervcellsutveckling Under fosterutvecklingen ska en enda cell, den befruktade äggcellen, ge upphov till alla de högt specialiserade celler som människokroppen består av.

Integration management in Finland and Tampere is broad task including multiple actors and departments. To manage integration, is to coordinate the cross organizational cooperation of multiple service structures that support migrants with different kinds of services. Although integration work has traditionally been provided through the Employment & growth services,the other relevant services fo
I denna studie görs en livscykelanalys på en solfångare som Kristianstads Industri Service AB (KISAB) utvecklar. Även en mindre jämförelse görs med en solfångarstudie från Battisti, R (2005). KISAB:s solfångare har inga absorbatorflänsar utan den fungerar liknande en integrerad vattentank men med väldigt lite medium i den. KISAB:s solfångare består till 80 % av aluminium eftersom både absorbatorn This paper reports the result of a life-cycle analysis done on a solar thermal collector in Sweden. Kristianstad Industri Service AB (KISAB) is developing a solar thermal collector with a framework and absorbing plate made out of aluminium and no flow tubes. The aluminium is instead hollow and the whole area of the absorbing plate is therefore in contact with the coolant. The solar thermal collect

This thesis aims at comparing the differences between Chinese welfare system and Swedish welfare system in respects of maternity insurance, parental leave and childcare. The reason comparing welfare system in these specific aspects is because they have intense relations with the mothers’ and children’s benefits. They also influence the mothers’ will of pregnancy. Selecting these two countries as t
