BACKGROUND: Several rating scales assessing stress-related symptoms of exhaustion have emerged in recent years. However, more knowledge is needed about the performance of these rating scales in patients with stress-related disorders as well as in other patient groups. With the recently developed Karolinska Exhaustion Disorder Scale (KEDS), we compared symptoms of exhaustion in different patient gr

Background: Arterial hemodynamic parameters derived from reservoir-excess pressure analysis exhibit prognostic utility. Reservoir-excess pressure analysis may provide useful information about an influence of altered hemodynamics on target organ such as the kidneys. We determined whether the parameters derived from the reservoir-excess pressure analysis were associated with the reduction in estimat

Vast amounts of resources extracted through the times are in today’s built environment, with only an estimated 20-30% of building material recycled or reused and the sector accounting for over 35% of the EU’s total waste generation. Buildings are also responsible for 25-40% of all global carbon dioxide emissions. Circular Economy (CE) refers to the better management of resources and waste by closi

Knowledge of how biodiversity sustains ecosystem function comes predominantly from studies focused on small spatial scales. Thus, we know relatively little about the role of biodiversity at larger scales of space and time where habitats become increasingly heterogeneous. Efforts to upscale the relationship between biodiversity and function have yielded inconclusive results. Given that increasing h

OBJECTIVE: Although injury burden prompts elite athletics (track and field) athletes to engage in injury management, little is known about their health literacy. We investigated musculoskeletal (MS) health literacy in world-leading athletics athletes and associations with prechampionship injury acknowledgement by reduction of training load in different socioeconomic environments.METHODS: Adult and

BACKGROUND: Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are at increased risk of developing TB, but the best screening algorithm for early detection and treatment of TB remains unknown. Our objective was to determine if combining routine chest X-ray screening could have a better yield compared with symptom-based screening alone.METHODS: We conducted this cross-sectional study between September 2020 and S

Background: Problem gambling is a public health issue affecting both the gamblers, their families, their employers, and society as a whole. Recent law changes in Sweden oblige local and regional health authorities to invest more in prevention and treatment of problem gambling. The economic consequences of gambling, and thereby the potential economic consequences of policy changes in the area, are

This paper presents a picoliter sample preparation technique utilizing the flow-through principle, allowing on-line coupling of chromatographic systems to be made. The work was performed in order to investigate the characteristics and the physicochemical properties of the sample preparation using typical mobile phase conditions from μ-CLC (column liquid chromatography) separations. The device pres

Background: Residual air accumulated air in the pulmonary veins constitutes a challenge to achievment of complete de-airing in open left heart surgery. To adress this problem, a conceptual method for de-airing was developed in Lund comprising bilateral opening of the pleurae to induce pulmonary collapse and a strategy with gradual pulmonary reperfusion and ventilation at weaning from cardiopulmona

The relation between use of sunscreens, different host factors and malignant melanoma was investigated in a population-based, matched case-control study of malignant melanoma in the South Swedish Health Care Region, which has the highest risk for melanoma in Sweden, between 1 July 1988 and 30 June 1990. In total, 400 melanoma patients and 640 healthy controls aged 15-75 years answered a comprehens

I Sverige finns inget direkt förbud mot att bränna religiösa skrifter, vilket det däremot finns i Finland. Att bränna religiösa skrifter är en form av hädelse, och det är en sådan typ av lagstiftning som Finland har. Att häda innebär att kränka Gud eller ett annat religiöst föremål. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hädelselagstiftningens historia i Sverige och Fin-land. FrågeställningarnaIn Sweden, there is no direct prohibition against burning religious scriptures, which however exists in Finland. Burning religious scriptures is a form av blasphemy, and it is this type of legislation Finland has. Blasphemy means insulting God or another religious object. The purpose of this essay is to examine the history of blasphemy legislation in Sweden and Finland. The research questions are

In the highly mediated and algorithmic landscape of contemporary Chinese social platforms, identity construction has increasingly shifted from open-ended self-exploration to templated, label-based performance. This study explores the cultural practices of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) on Xiaohongshu, a Chinese social media platform, as a case of “labeled identity.” As traditional sources

Outsourcing and contract manufacturing have developed as effective business strategies for electronics manufacturing services in the recent years. Most Consumer Electronic brand firms do not actually make the consumer products they sell but hire contract manufacturers, mostly in the developing world. Asia is currently the major production base of mobile phones for instance, with China and ASEAN ac

När någon går bort försvinner inte det den avlidne efterlämnar sig automatiskt. Ett dödsbo bildas som omfattar den avlidnes tillgångar och skulder. Normalt sett kommer dödsboet att förvaltas av dödsbodelägarna, det vill säga de som på något sätt kommer ha del av det som ingår i dödsboet genom arv eller genom testamente. Det ska eventuellt göras en bodelning mellan efterlevande make och dödsboet. DWhen a person passes away, an estate takes form which includes all the deceased’s assets and liabilities. Normally the estate is being taken care of by the parties to the estate. The parties to the estate is everyone who has a rightful claim on the estate, either by heritage according to Swedish law or according to a will from the deceased. Sometimes a division of the joint property between the sp

Uppsatsen presenterar de två vanligaste fallen av konkurrerande kollektivavtal. I avsaknad av lag har fråga om konkurrerande kollektivavtal främst reglerats genom rättspraxis. Uppsatsen presenterar hur gränsdragningsavtal tillsammans med prejudicerande domar till viss del har skapat en förutsägbarhet inom rättsområdet konkurrerande kollektivavtal. Det uppstår frekvent frågor om konkurrerande kolleThe essay presents the two most common cases of competing collective agreements. In the absence of law, the legal field of competing collective agreements is primarily regulated through case law. The essay presents how boundary agreement together with precedents produced by the labour court, to some extent has created a predictability in the legal field of competing collective agreement. There are

In the previous decades, mm-Wave frequency bands have largely been ignored for cellular communication because of the high free space attenuation as well as the cost and complexity of mm-Wave RF circuits. However, with the improvement of RF and antenna technologies over the last decade, it has become feasible to con- sider mm-Wave bands for cellular communications. With the large bandwidths availab
