This study investigates the effects and policy lessons from the surge of capital inflows that the Baltic countries experienced during the period 2004-2008. We discuss the main risks and policy challenges involved with such an episode and assess what scope there was for policy makers to face these challenges. We also devote some attention to the area of measuring exchange rate pressure by applicati
This paper examines the impact of Germany’s 9-Euro-Ticket and itssuccessor, the German Ticket (49 €), on public transportation usage,environmental benefits, and social equity, while exploring the feasibility ofimplementing a similar model in Sweden. The 9-Euro-Ticket, introduced in2022 as a temporary measure to alleviate economic strain from rising energycosts, significantly increased public trans
Hard-to-heal wounds are a growing human and financial concern, constituting approximately 1–3% of the healthcare budget. Wound care is not a medical specialty and is often not prioritized within healthcare. A large portion of the cost and suffering caused by wounds has the potential to be mediated through improved knowledge and effectivised workflows. One potential way to achieve this is through t
We aimed to investigate a hypothesised association between daily mean temperature and the risk of surgery for acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD). For the period of 1 January 2005 until 31 December 2019, we collected daily data on mean temperatures and date of 2995 operations for ATAAD at 10 Nordic cities included in the Nordic Consortium for Acute Type A Aortic Dissection (NORCAAD) collaborati
Denna artikel presenterar en kritisk läsning av litteraturvetaren Robert McRuers Crip Theory: cultural signs of queerness and disability (2006), i vilken författaren utforskar gemensamma beröringspunkter mellan funktionshinderforskning och queerteori. Artikelns syfte är tvåfaldigt. Inledningsvis analyseras vilka konsekvenser McRuers val av empiri har för det ramverk han utvecklar: cripteorin. DäreTHIS ARTICLE PRESENTS a critical reading of Robert McRuer’s Crip Theory: cultural signs of queerness and disability (2006), in which the author, a professor of English, explores common ground between disability studies and queer theory. The conjunction of the two has been rare (Grönvik 2008:48; Kafer 2009:291) but does ap- pear in a special edition of the magazine GLQ: A Journal of Lesbian and Gay
The plasma proteome is maintained by the influx and efflux of proteins from surrounding organs and cells. To quantify the extent to which different organs and cells impact the plasma proteome in healthy and diseased conditions, we developed a mass-spectrometry-based proteomics strategy to infer the tissue origin of proteins detected in human plasma. We first constructed an extensive human proteome
Introduction Mild traumatic brain injury is common in children and it can be challenging to accurately identify those in need of urgent medical intervention. The Scandinavian guidelines for management of minor and moderate head trauma in children, the Scandinavian Neurotrauma Committee guideline 2016 (SNC16), were developed to aid in risk stratification and decision-making in Scandinavian emergenc
Introduction: Equity in access to and utilization of health services is a common goal of policy-makers in most countries. The current study aimed to evaluate the distribution of need and access to health care services among Iran's rural population between 2006 and 2009. Methods: Census data on population's characteristics in each province were obtained from the Statistical Centre of Iran and Natio
Obesity is associated with increased triacylglycerol (TAG) storage in adipose tissue and insulin resistance. The mobilization of stored TAG is mediated by hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) and the recently discovered adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL). The aim of the present study was to examine whether ATGL and HSL mRNA and protein expression are altered in insulin-resistant conditions. In addition,
Heckscher published in 1915 a book on the economics of World War I in Swedish. He analyzed the costs and the finances of war along similar lines as his contemporary Pigou (1916). Heckscher reached farther by making a distinction between the short and the long-run costs of war. He also provided a comprehensive theoretical and empirical analysis of the sources of funds for war finance, including a p
Purpose – This chapter presents a framework for an action research based intervention to develop and transform sustainable healthcare in a regional context. The framework is illustrated by the case of the Regional Cancer Centre (RCC) West in western Sweden. Design/methodology/approach – The framework draws upon and develops Pettigrew’s context-content-process model of strategic change and applies
Abstract—This article have been written in cooperation with The Swedish Defense Research Agency (FOI). The article proposes a method to calibrate hydrophone positions for improved underwater survailence in The Baltic Sea. The idea with the method is to use the sound of a powerboat and a novel beamforming algorithm for array element localisation (AEL). There are strategic military advatages to this
Syftet med denna studie är att generera en kunskap kring hur fysiska butiker idag parerar den alltmer digitaliserade konsumenten samt hur de arbetar för att bibehålla sin position på marknaden. Studien har skett på butiksnivå och forskningsansatsen är kvalitativ där insamlingen av empiri skett i form av nio stycken djupintervjuer med både butikschefer och regionchefer från modeföretag som verkar p
Ett av de hetaste ämnen inom dagens IT-industri är SOA – Service Oriented Architecture – . Många av de aktiva debatterna handlar om hur SOA bidrar till att öka organisationernas flexibilitet och känslighet för förändring, något som historiskt har varit svårt att uppnå. Men hur många kan påstå sig veta vad SOA egentligen är? Termen har blivit ett så kallat ”buzzword”, dvs. ett imponerande ord som n
BACKGROUND: Gout is the most common inflammatory arthritis with a rising prevalence around the globe. While educational inequalities in incidence and prevalence of gout have been reported, no previous study investigated educational inequality in mortality among people with gout. The aim of this study was to assess absolute and relative educational inequalities in all-cause and cause-specific morta
