Objectives:This thesis aims to provide an overview of the epidemiology of AAV in southern Sweden, to evaluate different classification criteria in AAV. In addition we study if infection is a risk factor for later development of AAV comparing patients with AAV with a matched population cohort and to examine the occurrence of severe infections as an outcome in AAV. Methods:All adult patients diagnos

Future global temperature change will have significant effects on society and ecosystems. Earth system models (ESM) are the primary tools to explore future climate change. However, ESMs have great uncertainty and often run at a coarse spatial resolution (usually about 2°). Accurate high-spatial-resolution temperature dataset are needed to improve our understanding of temperature variations and for

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common chronic neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by symptoms of inattention, overactivity, and/or impulsiveness. The prevalence of ADHD varies in different settings and there have been voices raised to call for more objective measures in order to avoid over- and underdiagnosing of ADHD. Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) is a method where

Self-assembled nanolines are attractive to build the technological devices of next generation, but characterizing their electronic properties is often difficult to achieve. In this work we employ angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and density functional theory to clarify the electronic structure exhibited by self-assembled Bi nanolines grown on the InAs(100) surface. A surface resonance ass

Vilket utrymme är jag beredd att ge åt trosföreställningar och traditioner som inte är mina egna? Vad betyder mötet med människor av en annan tro för min egen tro? I ett alltmer mångreligiöst samhälle uppstår en mängd frågor i mötet med andra religioner – både teologiska och praktiska. Är exempelvis alla religioner likvärdiga vägar till Gud, och är det okej att delta i andra religioners ceremonier

Vertical graphene (VG) is a remarkable electrode material for supercapacitors due to its large specific area, open channel structures, and numerous exposed edges with high electrochemical activity. However, flexible supercapacitors with high rate performance based on VG have yet to be investigated. Here, we report flexible supercapacitors based on VG, carbon fabric (CF) current collector, and H2SO

I För världens skull – En festskrift till ärkebiskop Ante Jackelén reflekterar 20 forskare och författare över tro och teologi, gudstjänstglädje och pandemi, ledarskap och näthat, migration och religionsmöten. I dialog med Antje Jackeléns ärkebiskopsgärning utforskar de ämnen av avgörande betydelse för samhället och beskriver kyrkans uppdrag i en värld i behov av försoning. Boken inleds med en ski

In life, identity is based on many things. In death, people tend to be identified more on the basis of religion: separate cemeteries for Jews, Buddhists and the Plymouth Brethren, separate quarters for Muslims, Yezidis, Bahá’í and Orthodox Christians. However, it is not true that cemeteries are only a place for religious division. They are also public spaces and, as such, places where people from
