Therefore, it is important to learn what has changed and how to handle the change in t

Objectives This study evaluates the cost-effectiveness of rechargeable (RC) and nonrechargeable, primary cell (PC) traditional and multimodal spinal cord stimulation (SCS) systems in combination with conventional medical management (CMM) compared with CMM alone in patients with persistent spinal pain syndrome type 2 (PSPS-2) with low back/leg pain that remains despite surgery. Material and Methods

This Bachelor’s thesis examines the individual motivations behind shaping an ethnic identity in order to become interesting to oneself and others. Through understanding how people shape an ethnic identity, what values lie beneath, and placing it into the context of postmodern demands on the identity, this study argues that an ethnic identity may serve a purpose of generating cultural capital and s

The main focus of this case study was to assess ecological succession and restoration success after the removal of Rosa rugosa. Plant species composition and moss presence, bare ground cover, and biodiversity indices were analysed to identify patterns and differences within and between the restored and an invaded adjacent area. The complete absence of R. rugosa in restored plots confirms the effec

Urban form strongly influences sunlight access, a critical factor for well‐being in Nordic cities where low solar altitude and short winter days limit natural light.

Based on a population-based cohort study, Olsson et al. [1993] found significant evidence for elevated incidence of breast and ovarian cancers among female first-degree relatives of men with breast cancer. Using an extension of logistic regressive models we investigate whether, after allowing for multifactorial familial correlations, single locus segregation could be the cause of the elevated inci
