Children’s exposure to violence in their home is portrayed as a direct consequence of violence committed by adults, but when the perpetrator is the child's sibling it does not seem to acquire the same recognition. With this study, we want to draw attention to the victims of sibling violence by investigating the views of professionals who come in contact with children on the boundary between si

Children who come into contact with social services often have prior experiences of trauma. While Social Services aim to provide protection and support, research shows that encounters with authorities may also entail a risk of secondary victimization, particularly when children are not listened to, informed, or involved in decisions concerning their lives. Despite growing attention to children'

Background:Serious illness conversations are an iterative, interprofessional, team-based process that includes recommendations about medical care.

AIM: This retrospective observational cohort study aimed to investigate the prevalence of suspected lateral lymph node metastases (LLNM), as diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and its impact on local recurrence (LR) and overall survival (OS). Patients who underwent dissection of suspected lymph nodes were evaluated in subgroup analysis.METHOD: Patients diagnosed with rectal cancer in S

Background/Aim: Circumferential resection margin (CRM) has been shown to be a strong predictor of risk of local recurrence (LR) and distant metastases (DM) in patients with rectal cancer treated with total mesorectal excision (TME). However, not all patients with a CRM of zero develop LR or DM. This study aimed to identify factors associated with disease-free survival (DFS) despite non-radical exc

Purpose: High-risk colon cancer may benefit from preoperative chemotherapy (preCHT), but evidence on its short-term safety and outcome is limited. Population-based evidence before its incorporation into national guidelines is lacking.

Calorie labeling is a popular policy to address the obesity epidemic, but it has had little empirical success. Under the premise that willful avoidance of information plays a role in this result, we propose a novel approach—pre-nudges—to make consumers more receptive to calorie information. Unlike nudges, which are used to directly influence a choice, pre-nudges are used to directly influence how

Kan vi veta något om den historiske Johannes genom att läsa evangelierna och kan det vara så att han såg sig som en av de två messias som vi möter i texter från den hebreiska bibeln och i dödahavsrullarna? I evangelierna framställs Jesus som messiaspretendenten och Johannes alltid bara som hans förelöpare. Båda har kopplingar till profettraditionen och även till annan symbolik i den hebreiska bibe
