Background: Denmark and Sweden are considered to be countries of rather similar socio-political type, but public health policies and smoking habits differ considerably between the two neighbours. A study comparing mechanisms behind socioeconomic inequalities in tobacco smoking, could yield information regarding the impact of health policy and -promotion in the two countries. Methods: Cross-section
Ericsson India is looking into the possibility to enter a new business in the country. The business is a “telecom site leasing” service which would be included in Ericsson’s service portfolio. Services are an increasingly important part of the company’s total revenues. Demand for so called turn-key services, meaning full implementation and control over a customer’s network, is an example of a serv
Background: The Influenza – Monitoring Vaccine Effectiveness in Europe (I-MOVE/I-MOVE+) and Vaccine Effectiveness, Burden and Impact Studies (VEBIS) hospital networks have conducted seasonal multicentre, test-negative, case–control studies in Europe to measure influenza vaccine effectiveness (IVE) since 2015/16. We measured the effect of chronic conditions on VE of influenza A subtypes among older
Background: Early evidence suggests beta-blockers may have a disease-modifying effect in hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). We aimed to assess the efficacy of oral propranolol is reducing severity of HHT-related epistaxis. Methods: A randomised, double blind, placebo controlled clinical trial was conducted in adults with HHT experiencing epistaxis. Subjects were randomly assigned to rec
Incretin-based therapy is associated with low risk of hypoglycemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) possibly due to its glucose-dependency in stimulating insulin secretion and a sustained glucagon response during hypoglycemia. This is of special relevance when it is combined with insulin or given to elderly patients since both insulin therapy and high age are associated with impaired glucagon co
AbstractBackground: Non-communicable diseases are the number one killer worldwide and the leading one,cardiovascular disease (CVD), is responsible for more than 30% of all deaths. CVD is a progressive disease whichalso makes it economical, easy and effective to prevent. There are many stages of CVD that ultimately can lead tocoronary atherosclerosis, measurable as coronary artery calcification (CA
Importance: Preterm delivery has been associated with future cardiometabolic disorders in women. However, the long-term risks of chronic hypertension associated with preterm delivery and whether such risks are attributable to familial confounding are unclear. Such knowledge is needed to improve long-term risk assessment, clinical monitoring, and cardiovascular prevention strategies in women. Objec
The general rule in EC law is that a holder of an intellectual property right is not obliged to license the use of that right to others. However, situations exist where intellectual property rights suffer some limitations because of the prevalence of other conflicting interests. A dominant firm can, as the holder of an intellectual property right, be forced to grant a license to one or more undert
Urbanisation is causing densification of cities and more and more facilities are being placed in the underground to utilise the urban space as efficiently as possible. Access to the underground is obtained by constructing vertical access shafts. By constructing the shaft with a circular plan geometry, an effective construction is obtained which can carry large earth pressure loads by utilising the
Sverige har historiskt sett haft ett generöst konsolideringssystem för koncerner med stora avdragsmöjligheter. Avdragsmöjligheten för bland annat ränta har dock begränsats i allt större utsträckning på grund av viktigare samhällsintressen, så som ett förhindrande av skatteflykt och aggressiv skatteplanering. Ett resultat av detta är att det år 2019 trädde i kraft nya generella ränteavdragsbegränPreviously Sweden has had a generous consolidation system for groups with large deduction possibilities. However, the possibility of interest deductions, among other things, has increasingly been limited due to more important societal interests, such as preventing tax evasion and tax avoidance practices. As a result, new general interest limitation rules were put into practice in 2019 affecting
Background: Routine oxygen therapy has for a long time been used as part of the standard treatment for myocardial infarction (MI), despite a lack of randomized controlled trials (RCT) to support the use. A recent Cochrane review on oxygen treatment for normoxic MI patients found no evidence supporting the use, rather the trend pointed towards possible harm for oxygen. The SOCCER-study (Supplementa
För att möta behovet av en åldrande befolkning måste den svenska vården förändras, effektiviseras och struktureras om. Den svenska sjukvården måste flytta närmare patienten och därmed kommer hemsjukvården att bli allt viktigare. Hemsjuksköterskan har en samordnande och viktig roll inom hemsjukvården. Syftet med examensarbetet var att undersöka kommunikationen, informationsflödet och olika digitalaTo meet the needs caused by an aging population, Swedish healthcare must change to become more efficient. The healthcare system needs to be reconstructed, and the care needs to shift to become more patient centered. Therefore, home healthcare will become increasingly important. The homecare nurse has a coordinating, and therefore an important, role in home care. The purpose of this master thesis w
In this exam paper the question of the meaning of 1 Cor 7:36-38 is addressed, a passage containing one case in which marriage is recommended and one in which it is not. To answer the question linguistic, literary and historical analyses are performed within the framework of an evaluation of eight proposed interpretations of the passage. In the first interpretation, labeled (A), the unspecified mal
The profound impacts on human rights brought about by international and regional trade agreements have increasingly been recognized by scholars in the fields of human rights and trade, as well as international organizations and civil societies. Most notably, the intersection between human rights and trade has been reaffirmed by the United Nations, evidently in the reports by the United Nations Hig
BACKGROUND: Cerebral dopamine neurotrophic factor (CDNF) is an unconventional neurotrophic factor that protects dopamine neurons and improves motor function in animal models of Parkinson's disease (PD).OBJECTIVE: The primary objectives of this study were to assess the safety and tolerability of both CDNF and the drug delivery system (DDS) in patients with PD of moderate severity.METHODS: We assess
At a geological time-scale, seas rise aloft and mountains crumble. We are currently in the middle of a debate on whether—in order to acknowledge the pervasive and geologically significant traces of human action on the planet—our present era should be labelled the “Anthropocene”, and if so, what would be the cut-off date for the commencement of that era. At the same moment, we are already contempla
