Abstract Body:Starting out from a joint Nordic collaboration initiative in 2008 resulting in the development of a Nordic Master Program in Gerontology (NordMaG), followed by the establishment of graduate schools integrated with two national excellence centers for aging research in Sweden, in 2014 the Swedish National Graduate School for Competitive Science on Aging and Health (SWEAH) was establish

The physiological impacts and fitness costs of parasitism by an introduced ectoparasitic fly, Philornis downsi (Muscidae), were studied in nestlings of Darwin's Small Ground Finch, Geospiza fuliginosa (Geospizinae), on the Galápagos Archipelago. Whole blood haemoglobin (Hb) concentration was used to measure host response to ectoparasitism due to its high repeatability and validity, as well as for

Background: The prevalence of migraine with co-existing tension-type headache and neck pain is high in the general population. However, there is very little literature on the characteristics of these combined conditions. The aim of this study was to investigate a) the prevalence of migraine with co-existing tension-type headache and neck pain in a clinic-based sample, b) the level of physical acti

Objective:To determine viral load (VL) nonsuppression (VLN) rates, HIV drug resistance (HIVDR) prevalence, and associated factors among female sex workers (FSWs) in Ethiopia.Methods:A cross-sectional biobehavioral survey was conducted among FSWs in 11 cities in Ethiopia in 2014. Whole blood was collected, and HIVDR genotyping was performed. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify fa

Due to climate change, future weather conditions will become more extreme. During recent years, several severe damages have been caused by heavy rainfalls in combination with riverine events. Even though the effects of compound events are known to be influential for flood hazard, the method for investigating these types of events is a novel area of expertise. In this study, a methodology was devel

The European pharmaceutical industry uses the alleged efficacy of self-regulation to question the need for transparency laws similar to the US Physician Payment Sunshine Act. We conducted a comparative analysis of 20 large companies’ payment disclosures in seven European countries in 2017–2019. The data was extracted as part of eurosfordocs.eu, a novel transparency project that scrapes and integra

Glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies (GADAbs) are being increasingly used in clinical and research programs for the prediction and classification of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). A number of different assay formats for the measurement of GADAbs have been reported, but the degree of concordance between assays is unknown. In this study, GADAbs were measured on 16 coded sera in 34 ass

OBJECTIVE: To explore the associations between daily time in sedentary behaviour (SED) and physical activity (PA) with perceived physical capacity, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and fatigue in persons with post COVID-19 condition (PCC). An additional objective was to describe changes in SED and PA levels over three months.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Individuals with PCC self-reported on physic

In order to elucidate the multidimensional response mechanism for migration of antibiotics and spread of resistome in riverbed driven by river water level fluctuations, dynamic reactors were set up to simulate the variation of sulfamethazine vertical migration, biotransformation and resistance genes expression according to fluctuation direction and magnitude. The upward fluctuation of water level

In 1977, drunkenness in public spaces was decriminalized in Swedish law. The crime had its roots in royal decrees from the 18th century. The crime was first categorized in the former penalty law as an offense against decency but became later reclassified as a crime against the public order. The punishment was a fine and a person that was intoxicated in public spaces could be arrested and placed in

Användandet av s.k. kodifikationer som lagstiftningsmodell växte i popularitet som tydligast från och med upplysningstiden. Kodifikationen ämnar ge en fullständig, systematisk och tydlig bild av lagen. Modellen användes av flertalet framväxande nationalstater i 1800-talets Europa, där kodifikationen förstärkte och legitimerade centralstyret. I Sverige uppmärksammades behovet av en reformerad civilThe usage of the legislative model codification grew in popularity from the enlightenment on. The codification aims to present a complete, clear and systematic view of the law. The model was used by several emerging national states in 19th century Europe, where the codification was used to strengthen and legitimize the central power. In Sweden, the pressing need for a reformed civil law was recogn

Oilseed rape fields are a very common crop in the agricultural landscape of southern Sweden, and they can harbour surprisingly many insect species. Some of them are herbivores that feed on various parts of the oilseed rape plant, others are natural enemies of the herbivores, and even more species are tourists from the surrounding landscape. In my thesis I have studied these insects and how their pOilseed rape fields are a very common crop in the agricultural landscape of southern Sweden, and they can harbour surprisingly many insect species.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den här avhandlingen har behandlingsresultaten av permanent djupelektrod stimulering i hjärnan (Deep Brain Stimulation, DBS) undersökts ur såväl symptomminsknings som patients och närståendes perspektiv. DBS behandling innebär att en elektrod med fyra poler opereras in i hjärnan genom ett litet hål i skallbenet, och den kopplas till pulsgivardosa. Hela systemet är doltThe treatment related effects and personalized goal fulfilment of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) have been assessed in studies with different designs. The brain targets included the thalamus for medically intractable tremor in Parkinson's disease (PD) or essential tremor (ET) and the subthalamicus for reducing hypo-, bradykinesia, tremor, rigidity and dystonia in PD. A Swedish multi-center study sh

In 2019 there was a revision of the rental legislation in Chapter 12 of the Swedish Land Code. The amendment introduced new rules to solve several problems in the rental housing market. One of the main problems addressed were unreasonable rent levels in the sublease market, and a new rule was introduced to solve this problem. The rule is a reference framework for what constitutes a legal, acceptab
