The purpose of this study is to explore the enhancement of innovation in the public sector when municipalities use innovation hubs to meet global and social challenges. The study is aimed at examining the process of how the hubs implement innovation. This research contributes to the Swedish research of innovation and provides knowledge to managers about beneficial methods regarding managing change
Lunds Klimatallians har ambitioner att hjälpa sina medlemmar arbeta mot en hållbar utveckling och letar efter nya metoder för att förbättra sin insats. Lunds Klimatallians är en organisation som startades i initiativ av Lund Kommuns miljöstrategiska enhet i syfte att bidra till Sveriges genomförande av FN:s klimatmål. Målen ska leda världen mot en hållbar utveckling men i dagsläget finns hållbarheLund's Climate Alliance was initiated 2010 by the municipality of Lund, in southern Sweden, to support local climate adaptation and mitigation efforts. The purpose of this paper is to investigate what each member of Lund's Climate Alliance believes will be necessary to realize sustainability goals particular to their organization in the future. The study thereby points to new topics, activ
This paper uses the Spanish Christmas Lottery to provide new evidence about the relationship between wealth and health for adults and infants. Using a difference-in-difference design across provinces and time, I explore how overall health status, hospitalization rates, neonatal health, and alcohol consumption are affected by lottery outcomes. For adults, my results suggest no immediate effect on t
Overheating in buildings is becoming a major concern and cause for various health issues. Existing research and previous studies on the issue were examined to acquire relevant information about the definition of overheating, its possible causes, and the heath impacts it could have on human health. The review included data on the current status of thermal comfort and overheating regulations in Swed
Heart rate variability (HRV) is a measure of the variation in the time intervals between heartbeats. HRV can provide insights into the condition of the heart as well as the state and interaction of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. HRV can be measured over shorter periods (5 minutes) or longer periods (up to 24 hours). Similar to pulse, HRV is linked to respiratory rate. During
This paper examines long-run and short-term dynamics of real house prices in Sweden from the first quarter in 1986 to the last quarter in 2017. To understand this, multivariate co-integration and error correction modelling approach are used. More specifically, this paper examines whether fundamental factors of demand and supply can explain the real house price development in Sweden. Evidence shows
Popular summary The fate of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs The knowledge about distribution of drugs between sewage sludge, water phases and water living organisms is vital for predictions of the fate and transport routes of toxic substances to the environment. And the distribution of drugs in the environment can be used as a base for risk assessments and it also can be used to define desir
SummaryElevated HDL-C levels are generally regarded as prognostically favorable in cardiovascular disease. Our study shows that higher HDL cholesterol levels are prospectively associated with 18% increased risk of new-onset fractures in men but not in women. Higher HDL cholesterol may be a novel risk factor for developing fractures in men.PurposeIncreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-
Background Long-term pathological breathlessness is a life-limiting symptom that risks taking control of the individual’s life. We aimed to evaluate how locus of control (LOC), an individual’s perceived control of present and past life events, relates to breathlessness in a middle-aged general population. Methods A population-based, cross-sectional analysis of people aged 50–64 years was conducted
Background and objective: Although cardiovascular toxicity from modern systemic treatments in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) remains a concern, real-world data are limited. We aimed to characterise patients treated for mHSPC across multiple large cohorts and estimate cardiovascular adverse event (AE) risks. Methods: Leveraging PIONEER's Big Data platform, with databases stand
Aim Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a disorder with cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction where multiple and variable symptoms are common, including those from the peripheral and enteric nervous systems. We aimed to investigate subjective and objective signs of small and large fiber neuropathy in a Swedish POTS cohort compared with healthy controls. Secondly, we wanted to examin
Background: Alcohol intake increases recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF), but its relationship with cardiovascular outcomes is less well characterized. We aimed to study the association between different levels of alcohol intake and cardiovascular outcomes in a global cohort of patients with AF. Methods: This is a cross-sectional analysis of the RE-LY AF registry, including 15,400 patients with
Background: Influenza ranges from a mild and self-limiting infection to a life-threatening disease with high mortality despite intensive care. Conclusive data on the association between influenza type/subtype and mortality among adults treated at intensive care units (ICU) is lacking. Objectives: To investigate the mortality in adults admitted to ICU with laboratory-confirmed influenza during thre
Background: Although it has been suggested that the hippocampus and amygdala (HA) are involved in the neurobiology of obsessive– compulsive disorder (OCD), volumetric findings have been inconsistent, and little work has been undertaken on the volumetry of the heterogeneous anatomic units of HA, with their specific functions and cytoarchitecture, in OCD. We sought to explore potential sources of he
Purpose The EPHOR-NIGHT cohort was established to investigate how night shift work influences biological pathways and chronic disease risk using a comprehensive working-life exposome approach, focusing on cardiometabolic, mental health, cognitive and biological ageing outcomes. Participant The cohort includes 937 workers aged 20–65 years (88%female), primarily from the healthcare sector (96%) in S
Background: Escalating resistance among Gram-negative pathogens limits β-lactam options. Cefepime/enmetazobactam combines a fourth-generation cephalosporin with a class A β-lactamase inhibitor. We evaluated its activity against multidrug, extensive and pandrug-resistant war-wound isolates from Ukraine.Materials and methods: We tested 215 clinical samples (2022-2023) isolated from wounded patients
