The objective was to investigate the validity and reliability of a new instrument assessing sexual harassment at a public university in Sweden. In-depth interviews and focus group discussions resulted in a 10-item instrument, the ‘Lund University Sexual Harassment Inventory’ (LUSHI). A survey was sent to all staff, including PhD students, and students, with a response rate of 33% (n = 2736) and 32

MHC genes play a fundamental role in immune recognition of pathogens and parasites. Therefore, females may increase offspring heterozygosity and genetic diversity by selecting males with genetically compatible or heterozygous MHC. In birds, several studies suggest that MHC genes play a role in mate choice, and recent evidence suggests that olfaction may play a role in the MHC-II discrimination. Ho

We introduce the concept of a k-dimensional matrix product D of k matrices (Formula presented.) of sizes (Formula presented.) respectively, where (Formula presented.) is equal to (Formula presented.). We provide upper bounds on the time complexity of computing the product and solving related problems of computing witnesses and maximum witnesses of the Boolean version of the product in terms of the

Various concepts guide discussions on global literature, not least ›transnational‹. The presenttext advocates, however, for the term trans-imperial, as offering a more correct definitionof world literature, or global literature, both in pre-modern and modern times. Imperialspheres build up worlds of strong interconnections, and the languages they employ becomeprivileged languages that may last bey

Background: It is unclear whether peripheral arterial cannulation is superior to central arterial cannulation for postcardiotomy veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). Methods: A systematic review was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar to identify studies on postcardiotomy VA-ECMO for the present individual patient data (IPD) meta-analysis. Analysis was perfor

The purpose of this article is to develop more fully the notion of the international identity of the European Union (EU) in world politics. We will attempt to balance our previous focus of work on the "active dimension' of the EU' s attempts to "assert its identity on the international scene'; by looking at the "reflexive dimension'; of the EU's international identity from a more sociological pers

This chapter focuses on recent policies adopted by the Swedish government in its management of unaccompanied children, and asks what the implications are for the concerned children’s rights. Focusing on conditions for rights, the chapter identifies three tensions which illustrate spaces for rights claiming: the boundary between who is a child and who is an adult, the division of responsibility bet

Background In sub-Saharan Africa, high HIV incidence rates in adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) persist despite extensive HIV prevention efforts. Methods A prospective cohort of 2,710 HIV-negative AGYW (15–24 years) in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa were interviewed at baseline and followed-up approximately 18 months later (2014–2017). Associations between HIV seroconversion and socio-demograph

Det är sommar 2016 och tv-programmet Uppdrag granskning sänder ett uppmärksammat avsnitt om åldersbedömningar i asylprocessen: Ålder: okänd. Reportaget utgår från flera fall där vuxna sagt sig vara barn och som en följd av det placerats med barn som de sedan utsatt för grova övergrepp. Dessa avskyvärda händelser kunde ske, låter journalisterna påskina, därför att läkare och tandläkare avstått från

Introduction: This study examined the emotional impact that parents experience when confronted with an increased genetic risk of type 1 diabetes (T1D) in their child. Population-based screening of neonates for genetic risk of chronic disease carries the risk of increased emotional burden for parents. Methods: Information was collected using a well-being questionnaire for parents of infants identif

In this chapter I will offer some critical reflections on the British Presidency of the EU in a way which promotes comparison with other Presidencies in the period 1997 to 2002. In particular I will try to develop ways of thinking about the evaluation and comparison of Presidencies which takes into account both formal and informal factors. In order to achieve this I will use the framework adopted

Abstract in SpanishPresentamos en este artículo los fragmentos de la primera traducción completa conocida del Corán, acompañados de una introducción y notas. Esta traducción al griego, realizada algún tiempo antes de 780 d.C., no ha sido hasta ahora reconocida en los estudios coránicos ni en los bizantinos, sin que sus principales rasgos hayan sido advertidos. En el artículo argumentamos que la trIn this article the fragments of the first known complete translation of the Qur’ān are presented with introduction and notes. This translation into Greek, produced sometime before 870 CE, has not previously been recognized in Qur’ānic or Byzantine studies, and its main traits have not been noted. In the article it is argued that the translation attempts to render the Qur’ānic text closely and in

BACKGROUND: Studies suggest that a hybrid indocyanine green (ICG)-99mTc-nanocolloid tracer improves sentinel node (SN) identification compared to conventional dynamic sentinel node biopsy (DSNB). OBJECTIVE: To investigate hybrid tracer-guided SN identification in a multicentre setting and determine false-negative (FN) and complication rates. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: A total of 130 patien

The steel industry is responsible for 8% of all anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions and is the second largest user of coal after the power sector. The main emission source in steel production is the blast furnace, which converts iron ore and metallurgical coal into pig iron that is then further refined into steel. Past efforts to reduce emissions from steel have focussed on increasing energy ef
