Background: Cognitive deficits such as difficulties with attention, memory, and executive functions are frequently reported during remission from depression and relates to adverse functioning in daily life and risk of relapse. There is therefore a need for interventions targeting cognitive deficits after depression. However, few randomized controlled trials have investigated the efficacy of interv
Objective: Women with current or previous drug use (WCPDU) have an increased risk of poor cervical and breast cancer outcomes, and low participation in screening for these cancer forms. The aim of this study was to assess self-reported barriers to and facilitators of cervical and breast cancer screening, among WCPDU. Methods: A survey based on results from a previous qualitative study about WCPDUs
Dysfunctional water, sanitation and hygiene (WaSH) systems are mainly determined by poor water governance, exacerbating inequalities and poverty. Multi-stakeholder partnerships provide an approach to more flexible and adaptive governance to explore these problems. In this article, national commitments made to improve WaSH, made through the Sanitation and Water for All (SWA) partnership’s Mutual Ac
Rapporten sammanfattar fjärilsinventeringar utförda 2022 inom Biogeografisk uppföljning som drivs av Naturvårdsverket. I fjällområdet kunde totalt 35 ytor inventeras. Sammanlagt noterades 38 högnordiska blåvingar på 12 av 16 inventerade ytor, 34 dvärgpärlemorfjärilar på 14 av 17 ytor och 3 fjällsilversmygare noterades på 2 av 3 inventerade ytor. Svartfläckig blåvinge observerades på 23 av 56 inven
This paper is based on a study where four go-along interviews with a total of sixteen participants were conducted in three Swedish cities. The purpose of this study was to find out how different aspects and qualities of the built environment affected different persons in terms of experiences of inclusion and exclusion and strategies used to deal with obstacles in the environment. The study highlig
Background and purpose: Radiation therapy treatment planning is a manual, time-consuming task that might be accelerated using machine learning algorithms. In this study, we aimed to evaluate if a triplet-based deep learning model can predict volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) dose distributions for prostate cancer patients. Materials and methods: A modified U-Net was trained on triplets, a co
Background: To become a parent of a child who is born small for gestational age can lead to challenges in addition to the newly acquired parenting role. There is currently a lack of knowledge regarding parents' experiences of having a child born small for gestational age. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe the experience of becoming a parent of a child small for gestational age Des
BACKGROUND: There are multiple options for the treatment of thumb carpometacarpal joint osteoarthritis (CMC1 OA), with evidence for pain relief and improved function. Although simple trapeziectomy has the lowest complication risk, tendon suspension of the first metacarpal and interposition is still the most commonly used surgical procedure in patients with CMC1 OA. Although there are several repor
BACKGROUND: Patients undergoing hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery are typically preoperatively assessed using the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification, which is also used for case-mix adjustment when comparing centre outcomes. Studies determining the inter-rater variability of the ASA classification within hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery are currently lacking.METHODS: An inte
Drought is a climate risk that affects access to safe water, crop development, ecological stability, and food production. Therefore, developing drought prediction methods can lead to better management of surface and groundwater resources. Similarly, machine learning can be used to find improved relationships between nonlinear variables in complex systems. Initially, the standardized precipitation
BACKGROUND: Anastomotic leaks are associated with significant risk of morbidity, mortality and treatment costs after oesophagectomy. The aim of this study was to evaluate international variation in unit-level clinical practice and resource availability for the prevention and management of anastomotic leak following oesophagectomy.METHOD: The Oesophago-Gastric Anastomosis Audit (OGAA) is an interna
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate genetic outcomes, analyze the family experience, and describe the process of implementing genetic sequencing for children with profound sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) at a tertial audiological center in southern Sweden. Design: This is a prospective pilot study including eleven children with profound bilateral SNHL who underwent cochlear impl
The European external action service (EEAS) is a new player on the international diplomatic scene. Created through the 2009 Lisbon Treaty, it sought to streamline European diplomacy and strengthen the EU’s position on the global arena. However, not much has been written on the actual diplomatic content of the EEAS. The purpose of this thesis it therefore to investigate the particularities of th
