Mellan kulturpolitisk anpassning och estetiska objektivitetsideal : musikkritik och musikpolitik i dagsposten 1941 till 1945
What factors are important to patients when assessing treatment response : An international cross-sectional survey
This study investigated the perspective of international patients on individual symptoms of atopic dermatitis (eczema) in determining treatment response. A questionnaire was developed to evaluate the importance of symptoms from the patient’s perspective. Patients were asked: “How important are these features in deciding whether or not a treatment is working?”, and rated symptoms on a 5-point Liker
Resilience and Risk for Alcohol Use Disorders : A Swedish Twin Study
Background: Resilience has been shown to be protective against alcohol use disorders (AUDs), but the magnitude and nature of the relationship between these 2 phenotypes are not clear. The aim of this study was to examine the strength of this relationship and the degree to which it results from common genetic or common environmental influences. Methods: Resilience was assessed on a 9-point scale du

Hepatic DPP4 DNA methylation associates with fatty liver
Hepatic DPP4 expression is elevated in subjects with ectopic fat accumulation in the liver. However, whether increased dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) is involved in the pathogenesis or is rather a consequence ofmetabolic disease is not known. We therefore studied the transcriptional regulation of hepatic Dpp4 in young mice prone to diet-induced obesity. Already at 6 weeks of age, expression of hepa
Writing, stitching, inking : Different modes of creating historical narratives
This article presents an analysis of different ways of producing historical narratives in the Swedish football environment. The examples are based on the activities around AIK, a top league football club from Stockholm. In the article I present a tifo and a tattoo, stitching and inking, as actual modes of writing history. Big clubs like AIK not only attract many fans, but also stimulate creative e
Special issue of the Journal of Electrocardiology to commemorate Dr. Galen Wagner (1939–2016)
Cord blood transplantation, a cost-effective alternative : a health-economic analysis of the National Swedish Cord Blood Bank
Applications of Signal Processing to Microphone Node Calibration and Medical Signal Classification
Localization is an important enabling technology for many applications, such as wireless sensor networks, emergency rescue services, civil defense and transportation. Suppose that a room is equipped with several microphones (or sensors), and one person is making a sound while moving around in the room. Can one find microphone and sound source positions as well as reconstruct a room geometry? The a
Delayed cochlear implantation in post-meningitic deafness and hereditary complement C2 deficiency
We report the case of an adolescent with post-verbal severe/profound sensorineural hearing loss, occurring as a consequence of two bouts of pneumococcal meningitis at 12 and 32 months of age. A possible immunodeficiency was investigated, revealing hereditary complement C2 deficiency (C2D). Given the insufficient benefit from high-power hearing aids, the boy received a cochlear implant (CI) at age
Galen Wagner, M.D., Ph.D. (1939–2016) as international mentor of young investigators in electrocardiology
This paper describes a substantial part of the international mentoring network of students and young investigators in electrocardiology that developed around Dr. Galen Wagner (1939–2016), including many experiences of his mentees and co-mentors. The paper is meant to stimulate thinking about international mentoring as a means to achieve important learning experiences and personal development of yo
Survey shows large differences between the Nordic countries in the use of less invasive surfactant administration
Aim: Less invasive surfactant administration (LISA), namely surfactant instillation through a thin catheter in the trachea during spontaneous breathing, is increasingly used for premature infants. We surveyed the use of this technique in the Nordic countries in autumn 2015. Methods: A link to a web-based survey of surfactant administration methods was emailed to the directors of all neonatal units
Probing Atomic Scale Structure and Catalytic Properties of Cobalt Oxide Model Catalysts
Catalysts are used to produce a large fraction of the materials we use in our modern society. Avery famous example is the highly efficient catalysts that are used to fix nitrogen from the air intoartificial fertilizer salts. Without this catalytic process, it is difficult to imagine that we could feedthe current population of earth. Artificial fertilizers are, however, not the only product that usCobalt oxides are known to be active catalysts for a number of chemical reactions, but very little is known about the atomic scale processesresponsible for the activity. The research presented in this thesis is focused on obtaining an atomic scale understanding of the chemistry of wellcharacterizedcobalt oxide model catalyst surfaces consisting of pristine and defective CoO and Co3O4 thin films wi
Authors' reply re: Abnormally invasive placenta - Prevalence, risk factors and antenatal suspicion: results from a large population-based pregnancy cohort study in the Nordic countries
En MOOC om akademiskt skrivande - studentstöd och lärarresurs
In this paper we present a recently launched MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) on academic writing, addressing students in higher education. We describe the course and, in addition, discuss how it may be used as a resource to support subject content teachers in their communication teaching.
