Much contemporary critical infrastructure research has been devoted to studies of the effects of risks stemming from interdependencies between critical infrastructures, here referred to as interdependency-related risks. However, this research has placed limited emphasis on infrastructure actors’ efforts to manage such risks in practice, and it remains unclear to what extent and how critical infras
One may indicate the potentials of an MT system by stating what text genres it can process, e.g., weather reports and technical manuals. This approach is practical, but misleading, unless domain knowledge is highly integrated in the system. Another way to indicate which fragments of language the system can process is to state its grammatical potentials, or more formally, which languages the gramma
Objective: For patients undergoing radical cystectomy for bladder cancer, a procedure requiring complex urinary tract reconstruction prone to major postoperative complications, the timing and quality of the surgery have been associated with outcomes. Patients and methods: This study investigated if radical cystectomy for bladder cancer performed during holiday periods had worse disease-specific (D
BackgroundThe incidence of community-acquired pleural empyema is increasing. Knowledge of the bacterial aetiology is important in order to base recommendations on empirical antimicrobial treatment. The primary aim of the present study was to describe the bacterial aetiology of adult patients with culture proven and/or 16S rRNA-positive community-acquired pleural infection.MethodsWe performed a ret
Objective The aim of this study was to assess associations between endostatin levels and short-term mortality in unsorted acute hospitalised dyspnoea patients with or without congestive heart failure (CHF), adjusted for common cardiovascular risk factors.Design, setting and participants In this prospective observational study, 723 hospitalised patients who visited the emergency department at Skåne
Background: Pediatric atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common chronic disease. For assessing treatment outcomes, the concept of controlled and uncontrolled AD has been introduced. Objectives: The aim of the study was to estimate healthcare resource use in terms of visits, treatments and costs in children with controlled and uncontrolled AD. Materials & Methods: The study utilised administrative dat
Despite extensive efforts through various international initiatives to reduce global warming, it has been determined that human induced climate change is here, that the present scale of disruption of the climate is unprecedented and will continue. Increasing weather volatility can be expected, which will most likely increase exposure to weather related hazards, e.g. wildfires, flooding.

Introduction The role of global health and sustainable development in medical education is often debated. However, research regarding medical doctors' views on the application of their global health knowledge in the clinical setting remains scarce. This study aimed to explore junior doctors' perceptions of global health and sustainable development, the education they have received on these issues
Viral infections in the first year of life are associated with islet autoimmunity and type 1 diabetes risk. The Anti-Viral Action against Type 1 Diabetes Autoimmunity (AVAnT1A)- study is a clinical phase IV investigator initiated, randomised, controlled, multicentre, primary prevention trial conducted to determine whether vaccination against COVID-19 from 6 months of age reduces the cumulative inc
1911 beslöt stadsfullmäktige i Malmö enhälligt och utan debatt att införa en kommunal bostadsinspektion.

Undersökningen visar att urbana aktörer som delv
BACKGROUND: Despite improvements in short-term survival for Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA) in the past two decades, long-term survival is still not well studied. Furthermore, the contribution of different variables on long-term survival have not been fully investigated.AIM: Examine the 1-year prognosis of patients discharged from hospital after an OHCA. Furthermore, identify factors predict
