Accurate and up-to-date estimates of stroke burden are important for planning stroke prevention and management in younger adults. Objectives: This study aims to estimate prevalence, mortality and disability-adjuste

The Euro50 is a proposed optical telescope with an equivalent aperture of 50 m. It will have a segmented primary mirror and full adaptive optics. To study the interaction of the telescope structure, the control system and the optics, an integrated simulation model has been formulated. The mechanical model is a modal version of an Ansys finite element model. The optics model is based on ray tracing

Power consumption is an important design parameter for battery operated devices, and an especially sensitive issue in embedded Java systems. This paper presents a solution to reduce leakage power consumption of the heap memory characteristic of Java processors. By partitioning the heap into several memory banks and taking advantage of a compacting garbage collector, our method dynamically powers o

Syftet med denna studie är att lyssna på föräldrars berättelser om hur familjen uppfattat, begripliggjort och hanterat sin situation sedan sexuella syskonövergrepp avslöjats. Vi mötte fem föräldrar med sådan erfarenhet för semistrukturerade intervjuer med öppna frågor, transkriberade i helhet och analyserade med inteThere is a lack of understanding what happens to and within a family after a disclosure of sibling sexual abuse. The aim was to study the unique experience of parents who experienced this kind of disclosure. We interviewed five parents using semi-structured interviews with open-ended questions. The interview was transcribed in whole and analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Six

Children undergoing surgery for posterior fossa tumours (PFT) may experience postoperative language and communication difficulties, regardless of whether they develop cerebellar mutism syndrome (CMS) or not. While these language difficulties are increasingly recognised in current research, children’s own experiences of everyday communication remain limited. In this presentation, we share findings
This chapter examines elite polarisation as a challenge to governance in parliamentary democracies. We emphasise the distinction between ideological polarisation based on substantive policy disagreements from affective polarisation, characterised by identity-based animosity that creates barriers to cooperation even when policy compromise might otherwise be possible. While parliamentary regimes hav
This position paper examines the growing dominance of health economics in Swedish healthcare governance and argues that its elevated epistemic authority produces significant risks for the sustainability and ethical integrity of care systems. Drawing on feminist theories of care and critical political economy, the paper interrogates the assumption that care can be adequately represented, valued, or
There are no known estimates of the prevalence, severity and impacts from breathlessness in low- and middle-income countries. This study aimed to explore the prevalence, severity, self-attributed underlying conditions and impacts of breathlessness limiting exertion in community-dwelling adults in India. This exploratory, population-based online survey recruited a pre-planned sample of 3,000 adult
BACKGROUND: Patients with oesophageal and gastric cancer have a low likelihood of being cured and suffer from a broad spectrum of symptoms and problems that negatively affect their quality-of-life (QOL). Although the majority (67-75%) of patients at the time of diagnosis suffer from an incurable disease, research has primarily focused on the pre- and postoperative phase among patients treated with
