The accuracy of drainage network delineation as a function of environmental factors : A case study in Central and Northern Sweden

Drainage networks delineated from Digital Elevation Models (DEMs), are the basis for the modelling of geomorphological and hydrological processes, biogeochemical cycling, and water resources management. Besides providing effective models of water flows, automatically extracted drainage networks based on topography can diverge from reality to varying degrees. The variability of such disagreement wi

Widespread skeptic attitudes among people with epilepsy toward generic antiseizure drugs – A Swedish survey study

Purpose: To explore associations between the characteristics of people with epilepsy (PWE) and their attitudes toward generic substitution of antiseizure drugs (ASDs) in epilepsy. Methods: This was a cross-sectional survey study directed at adults with epilepsy using selected brand drugs: Keppra®, Lamictal®, Lyrica® or Topimax®. Symptoms of anxiety and depression, sense of self-efficacy, and belie

The ratio FEV1/FVC and its association to respiratory symptoms—A Swedish general population study

Chronic airflow limitation (CAL) can be defined as fixed ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) < 0.70 after bronchodilation. It is unclear which is the most optimal ratio in relation to respiratory morbidity. The aim was to investigate to what extent different ratios of FEV1/FVC were associated with any respiratory symptom. In a cross-sectional general populat

Explosive remnants in Swedish society : Standardization to visualize a complex risk picture

Explosive remnants from military activities imply a complex and costly risk to be dealt with in society. The problem involves different risks that are currently managed in isolation and by different stakeholders. For prioritization and ranking between all contaminated areas, a common risk picture needs to be presented and communicated to decision-makers. This chapter analyses the pros and cons of

Anthropometric measures and the risk of developing atrial fibrillation : a Swedish Cohort Study

Aims: Obesity is a risk factor for several cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), including atrial fibrillation (AF). However, it is less clear whether overall fat or abdominal fat distribution are most important for risk of developing AF. This study investigates how different anthropometric measures correlate to the risk of developing clinical AF in the Malmö Diet and Cancer cohort (MDC-cohort). Methods

Robust municipal decision making? A pilot study of applying robust decision making in three Swedish municipalities

The growing understanding of the increased frequency and severity of extreme weather events due to climate change demands action. Locally, measures to adapt must be taken without knowing exactly what will happen, where it will happen or what the consequences will be. To meet this need, a number of decision support tools have been developed and this article investigates how municipalities can imple

A preliminary validation of a dynamic speech motor assessment for Swedish-speaking children with childhood apraxia of speech

Objective: Children with speech sound disorders (SSDs) have difficulties affecting different levels of speech production. For treatment to be beneficial, it is important to differentiate between Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS)–a motor speech disorder with deficits in speech praxis–and other SSDs (nonCAS-SSD). We have previously developed a motor speech examination Dynamisk motorisk talbedömning
