Understanding the role of diabetes in the osteoarthritis disease and treatment process : A study protocol for the Swedish Osteoarthritis and Diabetes (SOAD) cohort

Introduction Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis and a leading cause of disability worldwide. Metabolic comorbidities such as type II diabetes occur with a higher rate in people with OA than in the general population. Several factors including obesity, hyperglycaemia toxicity and physical inactivity have been suggested as potential links between diabetes and OA, and have been

Renewing the subterranean energy regime? : How petroculture obscures the materiality of deep geothermal energy technology in Sweden

Social visions to replace fossil fuels with renewable energy sources have motivated unprecedented growth in global renewable energy manufacturing. Previous literature shows that people committed to realizing such visions have difficulties reconciling with the negative social-ecological impacts of this mass production even if it presents a formidable challenge to a socially just and ecologically su

Dealing with Economic Stress Through Migration: Lessons from Nineteenth Century Rural Sweden

Preindustrial society was characterised by vast uncertainties due to harvest failures and fluctuations in prices of basic commodities. These economic fluctuations had severe effects on the standard of living, especially for the poorer segments of the population, as shown for instance, by the increased mortality following economic crises. This article examines the extent to which migration could be

Estimation of Short-Term Effects of Air Pollution on Stroke Hospital Admissions in Southern Sweden.

Background: Short-term exposure to high levels of air pollution can increase stroke risk. In this study we investigated the short-term effects of air pollution on hospital admissions for stroke in a setting where pollutant levels are rather low. We also addressed methodological issues in evaluating the short-term effects of air pollution. Methods: Daily admissions of ischemic (n = 11,267) and hemo

Estimation of leaf area index in southern Sweden with optimal modelling and Landsat 7 ETM+Scene

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Satelliter används ofta för att studera markanvändning och vegationsutbredning. För att öka satelliternas möjlighet att kvantifiera vissa parameterar hos vegetationen har en strålningsmodell utvecklats. Dessa modeller simulerar den reflekterade strålningen som satelliten registrerar. På grund av att reflektansprocessen är så kompliserad kräver modellen en stor m
