In this paper I discuss the methodological challenges that we will encounter continuing research on resource dilution in families. The most important challenge

Introduction: Complicated perianal disease (cPD) may be the sole presentation of Crohn’s disease (CD). The role of small-bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) in the diagnostic algorithm of cPD is unclear.

For example, if we want to remember the article a colleague recommended during the last lab-meeting, we may need to resolve interference from other article recommendations from the same colleague. This study investigates if the contextual features specifying the encoding episodes are incidentally

IMPORTANCE: Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most prevalent sustained arrhythmia, portends higher risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, and is associated with quantifiable impairment in quality of life. While physical activity is widely recognized for its cardiovascular benefits, recent evidence challenges its role in the development of AF. OBSERVATIONS: Emerging data suggest a U-shaped rel

Med vår forskning vill vi förstå och främja människors psykiska hälsa, aktivitet och delaktighet och bidra till att människor kan leva ett så meningsfullt liv som möjligt och delta i samhället trots psykisk ohälsa. Att utveckla, utvärdera och implementera återhämtningsinriktade insatser som ger stöd i olika livssituationer och miljöer är därför centralt. Vi vänder oss till olika målgrupper såsomWith our research, we want to understand and promote persons’ mental health, activity and participation and as a result help them to live as meaningful lives as possible and participate in society despite mental ill health.
