Mortality from Musculoskeletal Disorders Including Rheumatoid Arthritis in Southern Sweden : A Multiple-cause-of-death Analysis, 1998-2014

OBJECTIVE: To assess mortality related to musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), specifically, among adults (aged ≥ 20 yrs) in southern Sweden using the multiple-cause-of-death approach.METHODS: All death certificates (DC; n = 201,488) from 1998 to 2014 for adults in the region of Skåne were analyzed when mortality from MSK disorders and RA was listed as the underlying and

Massive MIMO for 5G: Theory, Implementation and Prototyping

This chapter presents a flexible platform that supports prototyping up to 20 MHz bandwidth 128-antenna multiple input, multiple output (MIMO). It devotes theory, design, implementation, and prototyping of Massive MIMO for 5G communication systems. The chapter overviews the principles and theory of Massive MIMO. It describes the channel modeling system with a focus on specific phenomena of large sc

A Measurement Based Multilink Shadowing Model for V2V Network Simulations of Highway Scenarios

Shadowing from vehicles can significantly degrade the performance of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication in multilink systems, e.g., vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs). It is thus important to characterize and model the influence of common shadowing objects like cars properly when designing these VANETs. Despite the fact that for multilink systems it is essential to model the joint effects on t

The Performative, Sensory, and Embodied Experiences of Heritage: Spatial Changes and Heritage Construction in Rural and Urban China

This paper is inspired by recent literature that emphasise the performative, sensory, and embodied experiences of heritage practices, as well as by the recent “spatial” turn in China studies. Both rural and urban China has undergone dramatic spatial changes since 1949 that at first were brought about by ideological and political movements and later by market economic reforms. These changes have de

Deep foot infections in patients with diabetes and foot ulcerL An entity with different characteristics, treatments, and prognosis

We report findings in 223 consecutively included people with diabetes, foot ulcer and a deep foot infection treated by a multidisciplinary diabetic foot care team at the University Hospital in Lund, Sweden. The aim of the present study was to evaluate type and characteristics of deep foot infections and their relation to choice of treatment and outcome. Three different groups of deep foot infectio

Clinical characteristics and outcome in 223 diabetic patients with deep foot infections

Clinical characteristics and outcome in 223 consecutive diabetic patients with deep foot infections are reported. Patients were treated by a multidisciplinary diabetic foot-care team at the University Hospital, Lund, Sweden, and were prospectively followed until healing or death. About 50% of patients lacked clinical signs of infection, such as a body temperature > 37.8°C, a sedimentation rate > 7
