En hållbar småhusbeskattning?

Fastigheter anses på grund av dess unika egenskaper att vara en av de bästa skattebaserna, och i takt med globaliseringens acceleration blir betydelsen av skatteintäkter från denna skattebas allt större. I Sverige har skatteuttaget från denna skattebas trendvis minskat med åren, något som sticker ut på ett internationell plan. Syftet med rapporten är att jämföra olika fastighetsbeskattningsmodell

Klimatanpassning av förskole- och skolmiljöer

Det är i början av sommaren och solen steker, asfalten ångar av värmen. Med snabba steg springer barnen in under den stora eken och i skuggan är det svalt och skönt. Träd och buskar hjälper till att hålla temperaturen nere på gården samtidigt som det ger skugga över både gården och huset. Barnen fortsätter in bakom trädet, här finns små stigar och buskar där de brukar leka. Gården är stor, det gårIncreased average temperatures, rising sea levels and heat waves are some examples of the consequences of climate change. Cities are particularly vulnerable to climate-related events due to their structure and lack of green and blue spaces causing negative impacts on both the environment and public health. Children are one of the most sensitive groups to heat waves and they spend plenty of time in

Exploring Science-Based Targets: Initial Insights from Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises

Lärdomar från småföretag som minskar sina utsläpp med Science Based Targets Vi vet alla hur viktigt det är att stoppa klimatförändringarna som sker, men ansvaret kanske inte alltid ligger på dig eller mig. Ofta fokuseras det på vad vi kan göra som individer, men alla problem hade inte löst sig även om vi slutade flyga eller åt mer vegetariskt. Omställningen måste även göras av företagen som stårWith climate change resulting from a history of uncontrolled greenhouse gas emissions, all parts of society now need to take action - maybe most importantly the private sector. Since 2015 the Science Based Targets (SBT) initiative has committed over 5000 companies worldwide to heavily reduce their total emissions at a pace that scientists deem necessary for average global temperature rise to stay

Existentiella utmaningar hos unga på HVB : Frihet, ångest och livets grundvillkor

Att placeras på HVB är en av de mest ingripande insatserna inom socialt arbete. För ungdomar innebär den ofta att tillvaron blir präglad av förändring och en känsla av att framtiden är osäker. Licentiatuppsatsen fördjupar kunskapen kring existentiella utmaningar som kan uppstå i denna process. Studien har en teoretisk utgångspunkt i existentiell filosofi och fokuserar på hur grundläggande livsvillWhen young people are placed in residential care (HVB) it is one of the mostfar-reaching interventions in social work, often involving significantdisruptions to their everyday lives, future outlook, and sense of self. Whilesuch placements frequently raise questions about meaning and freedom thesechallenges remain largely unexplored from an existential perspective in bothresearch and practice. This

Variations in pain induced by venous cannulation on repeated time-points : An observational cohort study

BACKGROUND: Catheterization of the vein is frequently a painful procedure. Assessing venous cannulation induced pain (VCP) before surgery have been used to predict the intensity of postoperative pain and postoperative opioid consumption. The aim of this study was to investigate the intra-individual variation in venous cannulation induced pain at three consecutive time points and factors influencin

Epigenetic differences at immune and type 1 diabetes susceptibility genes in blood from young children after COVID-19 infection

Background: Viral infections, including COVID-19, are associated with an increased risk for type 1 diabetes (T1D), but potential underlying mechanisms remain unexplored. We evaluated whether COVID-19 or influenza A infection is characterized by differential DNA methylation at immune and T1D susceptibility genes in young children at risk for T1D. Methods: Epigenome-wide association analysis using t

Exploring potential sex differences in Hirschsprung disease : a national cohort study of diagnostic patterns and early postoperative outcome

Purpose: There are limited data to show how sex impacts the early clinical course of patients with Hirschsprung disease (HSCR). This study aimed to explore potential sex related disparities in the preoperative, surgical, and early postoperative course of HSCR patients. Methods: This retrospective study analyzed data of HSCR patients who underwent pull-through surgery at pediatric surgery centers i

Trichotillomania and Risk of Alcohol- and Drug-Related Problems

Background: Trichotillomania is an understudied psychiatric disorder characterized by repeated hair-pulling resulting in hair loss. Little is known about the risk of problematic substance use in this patient group. In this nationwide matched cohort study, we investigated the association between trichotillomania and substance-related problems. Methods: We linked various nationwide administrative an

Association of fever and infections with the subsequent risk of atopic diseases in children with genetic susceptibility for T1D : Results from the TEDDY cohort study

Background: The increased prevalence of atopic diseases may be due to lifestyle changes affecting our exposure to microbes. We investigated the association between infections, fever, and atopic diseases in a large international birth cohort setting. Methods: 3842 children at genetic risk for type 1 diabetes were followed prospectively for the first 10 years for the occurrence of infections and ato

From prevalent to personal: how social exposure predicts attitudes toward non-suicidal self-injury and what prevalence reveals

Introduction: Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is often met with stigma, which can deter individuals from seeking help. While most research on NSSI stigma has focused on clinical settings, the attitudes of those most likely to receive an NSSI disclosure, such as peers, friends, and family, remain underexplored. Building on qualitative findings that positive disclosure experiences can foster support

Pregnancy blood pressure trajectories in relation to high PFAS exposure : A longitudinal study from the Ronneby Mother-Child Cohort

INTRODUCTION: Maternal blood pressure (BP) is crucial for the health of both mother and fetus, with long-term implications for the child's health. Studies exploring the link between perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy often yield inconsistent results, frequently focusing on a single BP measurement rather than longitudinal measurements. This study chara

Outcome of patients scheduled for CRS and HIPEC yet only undergoing explorative laparotomy

BackgroundSome patients scheduled for cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) only undergo explorative laparotomy (open/close procedure) due to extensive tumor spread or challenges in achieving complete cytoreduction (CC0). This study aimed to evaluate the surgical outcomes and overall survival in patients with peritoneal surface malignancy (PSM) who only

Depth of Anaesthesia Measured by Patient State Index (PSi) Does Not Correlate With Increased Seizure Duration During Electroconvulsive Therapy

BACKGROUND: Seizure duration during electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) correlates with treatment efficacy and may be influenced by depth of anaesthesia. The Patient State Index (PSi), derived from processed EEG, offers a potential method to monitor depth of anaesthesia during ECT. This study examined the correlation between pre-ictal PSi and EEG-seizure duration.METHODS: In this prospective observati

Ethical challenges and action alternatives: Case reflections in ambulance care

BackgroundAmbulance clinicians regularly encounter medical, caring, existential and ethical challenges. Meeting patients with complex medical presentations underscore the need for holistic decision-making and actions as ambulance clinicians struggle to strike a balance between addressing medical and caring needs.AimThis study aimed to explore action alternatives considered and discussed during eth

Islet autoantibodies as precision diagnostic tools to characterize heterogeneity in type 1 diabetes: a systematic review

Background: Islet autoantibodies form the foundation for type 1 diabetes (T1D) diagnosis and staging, but heterogeneity exists in T1D development and presentation. We hypothesized that autoantibodies can identify heterogeneity before, at, and after T1D diagnosis, and in response to disease-modifying therapies. Methods: We systematically reviewed PubMed and EMBASE databases (6/14/2022) assessing 10
