During the last decades, there has been continuous development of nationwide quality registries to assess healthcare and to do research in Sweden. An important background motive is the demographic transition resulting from an increasingly ageing population as one of the most important challenges of our time and a growing concern in many European countries and elsewhere. One condition for meeting t

OBJECTIVE: Genome-wide association studies have begun to elucidate the genetic architecture of type 2 diabetes. We examined whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) identified through targeted complementary approaches affect diabetes incidence in the at-risk population of the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) and whether they influence a response to preventive interventions. RESEARCH DESIGN

Since 1970s the development and introduction of heat pumps have been supported as a strategy to improve energy efficiency in Sweden and Switzerland. Several policy instruments have been applied, such as R&D, subsidies/electricity price incentives, labelling and quality test centres. The justification of introducing heat pumps as an energy-efficient end use technology was, in general, to decrea

Design is often described as a profession where the result of the work is future oriented. Herbert Simon defined it as work that aims at “changing existing situations into preferred ones” . This may refer to a design process where the result can be very unpredictable even if the goal is thoroughly outlined. David Pye has portrayed this performance as “workmanship of risk” which differs from “workm

Several sea duck species in Europe face dwindling population numbers with following increased conservation focus. Shot gun practices may put extra pressure on populations not only by direct hunting mortality but also crippling and lead poisoning from ingestion of pellets. In this study, we examined three sea duck species breeding in the Swedish Archipelago of the Baltic Sea by x-raying trapped inc

Two electrotechnologies: pulsed electric fields (PEF) and moderate electric field (MEF) in combination with vacuum impregnation of glycerol as cryoprotectant were used to increase the freezing tolerance of rocket leaves. Rocket leaves were treated with PEF using a nominal field strength of 1200 V/cm or MEF at different combinations of voltage and frequency. Leaves were then immersed in a glycerol

The COVID-19 pandemic has drawn attention to food insecurity in developed countries. Despite adequate levels of agricultural production, consumers experienced demand-induced scarcity. Understanding the effects on nutrition and the environment is limited, yet critical to informing ecologically embedded mitigation strategies. To identify mitigation strategies, we investigated wheat flour and egg ret

This is the first report comparing EULAR and national treatment recommendations for PsA patients across Europe, and the first this decade to compare ASAS-EULAR and national treatment recommendations in axSpA patients. An electronic survey was completed from October 2021–April 2022 by rheumatologists in 15 European countries. One and four countries followed all EULAR and ASAS-EULAR recommendations,

A combination of searches for the single production of vectorlike top quarks ((Formula presented)) is presented. These analyses are based on proton-proton collisions at (Formula presented) recorded in 2015-2018 with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of (Formula presented). The (Formula presented) decay modes considered in this combination ar

Endovascular therapy (EVT) has proven benefit for patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (LVO) strokes with moderate-to-severe deficits, but its value in patients presenting 6-24 hours after onset with mild symptoms (NIH Stroke Scale score ≤5) remains unclear. This journal club article examines a retrospective analysis of CLEAR registry data comparing EVT with medical management

This paper presents a search for physics beyond the Standard Model targeting a heavy resonance visible in the invariant mass of the lepton-jet system. The analysis focuses on final states with a high-energy lepton and jet, and is optimised for the resonant production of leptoquarks — a novel production mode mediated by the lepton content of the proton originating from quantum fluctuations. Four di

This article reports on a search for dijet resonances using 132 fb−1 of pp collision data recorded at (Formula presented) ¼ 13 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The search is performed solely on jets reconstructed within the ATLAS trigger to overcome bandwidth limitations imposed on conventional single-jet triggers, which would otherwise reject data from decays of sub-TeV dij

This study examines the use of directives in Swedish Physical Educa-tion and Health classes, focusing on their application for native Swedish speakers and newly arrived second language learners. It investigates the types of directives used and how they differ when addressing L1 versus L2 students, as well as how teachers utilize directives to simultaneously instruct physical activities and teach s

Landslide is one of the most important natural hazards that make numerous financial damages and life losses each year in the worldwide. Identifying the susceptible areas and prioritizing them in order to provide an efficient susceptibility management is very vital. In current study, a comparative analysis was made between combined bivariate and AHP models (bivariate-AHP) with a logistic regression
