Objective: To explore strategies that persons with persistent shoulder pain after stroke use to manage their pain in daily life. Design: A qualitative study using semi-structured face-to-face interviews, analysed by content analysis. Setting: A university hospital. Subjects: Thirteen community-dwelling persons (six women; median age: 65 years; range 57–77) with shoulder pain after stroke were inte

Denna rapport analyserar kommunala brukarråd rörande missbruks- ochberoendevård, äldreomsorg samt frågor kring psykiska och fysiskafunktionshinder. Rapporten utgår från en enkätundersökning av brukarråd i allaSkånes kommuner. Tjänstemän med ansvar för de kommunala brukarråden ficksvara på frågor om förekomst av brukarråd, vilka organisationer som medverkar ide olika kommunala brukarråden, vilka er

Object: Many patients with Ewing sarcoma (ES) of the mobile spine present with neurologic symptoms leading to emergency decompressive surgery. Only rarely is optimal treatment involving neo-adjuvant chemotherapy followed by en bloc excision possible. The purpose of this study was to study treatment, neurologic and oncologic outcome in patients with ES of the mobile spine. Methods: Twenty-four pati

Fishing access agreements with developing countries have been widely criticized, for example for contributing to overexploiting fish resources and threatening food security. However, there is littlequantitative evidence of their economic effects. We investigate how European Union (EU) fishing access agreements affect African partner countries’ fishery exports to OECD countries. We find that:• Fish

Infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (IHPS) is a disorder of young infants with a population incidence of ∼2/1000 live births, caused by hypertrophy of the pyloric sphincter smooth muscle. Reported genetic loci associated with IHPS explain only a minor proportion of IHPS risk. To identify new risk loci, we carried out a genome-wide meta-analysis on 1395 surgery-confirmed cases and 4438 controls

Relapse of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains a significant clinical challenge due to limited therapeutic options and poor prognosis. Leukemic stem cells (LSCs) are the cellular units responsible for relapse in AML, and strategies that target LSCs are thus critical. One proposed potential strategy to this end is to break the quiescent state of LSCs, thereby sensitizing LSCs to conventional cytos

Photoionization time delays are measured with two-color (XUV+IR) interferometric techniques. The combination of attosecond temporal resolution and high spectral resolution from narrowband harmonics allows the study of ultrafast dynamics in both time and frequency domain.

Due to increased urbanisation, and climate change, there have been calls for a more sustainable management of stormwater. Blue-green measures have been recognised as a sustainable solution and a necessary complement to pipe-bound approaches. The aim of this study is to identify barriers and drivers in the implementation of blue-green measures in a Swedish context, to increase the understanding of

A literary manifesto is not a program. Even so, many are irritated by the doctrinal constraints of any manifesto or by its imprecision. There is confusion between the theoretical reinforcement of the manifesto, which has rather a conative function (to use a term in linguistics), of conviction. Predictive and limitative is the program. Politically speaking, the former proves "creative political ind

This article investigates how donation behavior to charitable organizations and helping intentions toward begging European Union (EU)-migrants are related. This question was tested by analyzing survey responses from 1,050 participants sampled from the general Swedish population. Although the overall results suggested that donations to charitable organizations were positively related to helping int

Statistical techniques exist for inferring community assembly processes from community patterns. Habitat filtering, competition, and biogeographical effects have, for example, been inferred from signals in phenotypic and phylogenetic data. The usefulness of current inference techniques is, however, debated as a mechanistic and causal link between process and pattern is often lacking, and evolution
