The lowermost Silurian of Jamtland, central Sweden: conodont biostratigraphy, correlation and biofacies

The Late Ordovician-Early Silurian succession in Jamtland includes the marine Kogsta Siltstone, which is unconformably overlain by the shallow-water Ede Quartzite that grades into the open-marine Berge Limestone. A Hirnantia shelly fauna dates the uppermost Kogsta Siltstone as Hirnantian, and shelly fossils indicate an Aeronian age for the Berge Limestone. Biostratigraphically highly diagnostic co

Swedish-Lithuanian telemedicine Litmed project in otolaryngology

Telemedicine is becoming a reality as a result of improvements in technology and telecommunications. The task of the otolaryngological part of the pilot international telemedicine Litmed project was devoted to the establishment of telemedicine training and demonstration facilities in cooperation between the Departments of Otolaryngology of the Kaunas University of Medicine (Lithuania) and the Lund

Utilisation of antibiotics in young children: opposite relationships to adult educational levels in Danish and Swedish counties.

Background. Antibiotic utilisation varies profoundly among and within countries, and the extent of antibiotic utilisation correlates with the frequency of bacterial resistance, particularly among children. Hence, it is important to assess which factors may influence prescribing. In addition to variations in morbidity, health-care organisation, drug regulatory and supply systems, prescriber's attit

Increased occurrence of hepatitis A with cyclic outbreaks among drug addicts in a Swedish community

Abstract in German Zur Bestimmung der Prävalenz vonHepatitis A Virus-Antikörpern (anti-HAV) bei Drogenabhängigen wurden Seren von 234 Drogenabhängigen mit akuter Hepatitis B, die in einer schwedischen Stadt während zehn Jahren gesammelt worden waren, auf anti-HAV getestet. Zum Vergleich wurde eine normale Bevölkerungsgruppe herangezogen, bei der nur 3,8% der nach 1950 Geborenen und 8,2% der Jahrgä

Health-health analysis - An alternative method for economic appraisal of health policy and safety regulation Some empirical Swedish estimates

Health-health analysis (HHA) focuses on statistical lives themselves as a numeraire. The underlying principle is that the expected gains in health and safety of reduced risks in one area may result in increasing risks somewhere else in society. By reducing one risk other risks may increase due to changed individual behaviour. In addition to this direct effect, another indirect effect will also be

Are associations between socio-economic characteristics and exposure to air pollution a question of study area size? An example from Scania, Sweden

BACKGROUND: Numerous studies have shown that exposure to air pollutants in the area of residence and the socio-economic status of an individual may be related. Therefore, when conducting an epidemiological study on the health effect of air pollution, socio-economy may act as a confounding factor. In this paper we examine to what extent socio-economic status and concentrations of NO2 in the county/
