OBJECTIVE: The time after birth is a crucial period for women, involving both physical recovery and emotional challenges. Previous research indicates that postnatal care is a neglected area of maternity care. The aim of this study was to explore women's suggestions for health care improvements, based on their experiences during the first year after birth.METHODS: This study is based on data from a

The spatial organisation of shopping and retail has been transformed significantly since the 1980s, commonly being conceptualised as ‘retail decentralisation.’ This shift involves the displacement of retail from town centres to out-of-town establishments and, more recently, to digital platforms, creating a noticeable vacuum. Consequently, the topic of the ‘death of town centres’ has become a signi

Aims: To study the characteristics, contexts and implications of drinking stories among young drinkers. Methods: Ethnographic fieldwork was conducted among Danish youth at a beach resort in Bulgaria. The fieldwork included three months of participant observation and 45 semi-structured interviews with a total of 104 tourists and 11 guides. The participants in the study were aged between 16 and 26 y

Today, almost three percent of all babies born in Sweden are conceived with the help of in vitro fertilization (IVF). Nonetheless, studies indicate that IVF is underproduced by society and the Rand Corporation concluded in a recently published report that IVF has the potential to increase fertility rates in Europe. If IVF is considered as a method to improve fertility rates, reimbursing IVF could

This study examined longitudinal, age-related and intra-individual variation in Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) in regular menstruating women and correlated the hormonal levels to the antral follicle count (AFC). The impact of variations on an algorithm for calculation of follitropin-dose for ovarian stimulation were also tested. The study was carried out at a fertility clinic of a tertiary universit

Due to a rising concern for the climate, more industries are becoming controversial due to their greenhouse gas intensive production. This study has looked into one of these industries, the agricultural industry in Denmark, and the controversy surrounding this industry. By adopting a critical discourse analysis (CDA) perspective, this study investigates the discursive construction of (de)legitimat

Innovation is emphasized as an engine of growth and as the driving force of the 21-century. The innovation capacity of companies is centered around human capital where the lack of qualified employees is seen as one of the biggest barriers to innovation. Therefore, this study aims to explore how popular companies work to attract and retain innovative employees, and what attracts and motivates innov

OBJECTIVES: To determine what constitutes normal changes in the uterine cervix visible at transvaginal ultrasound examination from 24 gestational weeks until delivery in nulliparous women delivering at term. DESIGN: Cervical length and width were measured using transvaginal ultrasound, and the inner cervical os was assessed as being closed or open every 2 weeks from gestational week 24 until deliv

High biogenic silica (BSi) concentration occurs sporadically in lake sediments throughout the world, however, the processes leading to high BSi concentrations varies. While BSi formation and preservation is expected to occur in silica-rich environments with high dissolved silicon (DSi) concentrations such as volcanic and hydrothermal inputs, the factors and mechanisms explaining high DSi and BSi c

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hantering av avlopp och avfall är en del av alla människors vardag. Vår hälsa och miljö påverkas av metoderna vi tillämpar för att ta hand om rester från hushåll och industrier. Genom teknikens utveckling används idag bakterier i vattenreningsverk där avloppsvatten renas från alla skadliga föremål och föreningar. Med hjälp av matematiska uttryck och analyser, i samspel Biofilms are compact, sessile microbial communities that attach to surfaces in aqueous environments. In wastewater treatment, they are especially important for removal of phosphorus and nitrogen, which, if released into a receiving water body, can cause severe eutrophication. Mathematical models of biofilms in wastewater are used to understand the underlying processes and to describe and analyze b

Purpose: To verify the accuracy of clinically used cardiac MRI T1 mapping sequences for measuring extracellular volume fraction (ECV) throughout the spectrum of pathologic values using an independent reference standard. Materials and Methods: Acute myocardial ischemia was induced in six pigs using endovascular balloon occlusion in the left anterior descending artery between October 2018 and Novemb

Despite significant efforts to reconstruct the Holocene glacial history in Scandinavia, evidence of glacier fluctuations in Sweden has mostly been limited to palaeoclimatic proxies, while dating of direct geological evidence from glacier forelands is still rare. This is the first study in Sweden that has attempted to fully reconstruct dynamics, chronology and palaeoclimate of a glacier throughout

Biogas är ett förnybart bränsle som tillverkas genom att organiskt avfall bryts ner utan syre. På St1 Biokrafts anläggning i Södertörn används avfall som matrester, gödsel och slakteriavfall för att producera biogas och biogödsel. Innan det organiska materialet förvandlas till biogas genom rötning kan avfallet förbehandlas för att påskynda processen och för att producera en rötrest som kan användaBiogas production plays an important role in the transition toward renewable energy systems by converting organic waste into methane and nutrient-rich biofertilizer. This study developed two process models to describe and predict the behaviour of the pre-treatment facility at St1 Biokraft’s biogas plant in Södertörn, Sweden. An annual model was constructed to reproduce the mass balance of input ma

Recent studies show how patterns and trends in social mobility look substantially different when both parents are considered rather than one. Using Swedish census and register data covering cohorts born 1865–1985 and their parents, I describe social mobility among both male-breadwinner and dual-earner family types, each reflecting a work-life context common globally today. This rich longitudinal d

Human babesiosis is an emerging disease as more cases are being reported worldwide. Most cases in Europe are caused by Babesia divergens, whereas most cases in North America are due to Babesia microti. While B. microti is also found throughout Europe, it appears to be less pathogenic. We generated high-quality nuclear and organellar genome assemblies of two B. divergens and two B. microti isolates

BACKGROUND: If lungs from subjects dying of heart attacks could be used for transplantation, the lung donor shortage could be radically reduced. The aim of this study was to investigate, in an experimental survival model, the results of lung transplantation using lungs from non-heart-beating donors. METHODS: The left lung, topically cooled to 25 degrees C for 2 hours in situ after 5 minutes of cir

Natural hybridization occurs commonly in plants and blurs their interspecific delimitation. It is unclear whether spontaneous hybridization occurs in natural populations of Primula in China. In this study we examined natural hybridization between P. secundiflora and P. poissonii based on morphological and molecular analyses of individuals with intermediate morphology. Most morphological characters
