This chapter presents the results of a production study with twelve speakers of South Swedish. The results show that South Swedish has so-called two-peak contours in non-utterance-final nuclear accents and in phrase-initial accents (so-called initiality accents). The shape of the two-peak contours is reminiscent of contours reported from East Norway and West Sweden. These results contradict previo

Introduction: We investigated amyloid-burden quantification in a mixed memory clinic population. Methods: [18F]Florbetaben amyloid-PET (positron emission tomography) scans of 348 patients were visually read and quantified using the Centiloid (CL) method. General linear models were used to assess CL differences across syndromic and etiological diagnosis. Linear mixed models were fitted to assess th

For the past years, the national rhetoric in Sweden has changed. Due to the Russian actions in Ukraine and Crimea, efforts towards mobilizing military and civil preparedness increased. The concept of the ‘total defence’ was reintroduced and has led to shifting priorities in Swedish politics, serving as a happy object and remedy in times of security threat and social anxiety. The article critically

Arbetsgivarens rehabiliteringsansvar innebär, i samband med att en arbetstagare får nedsatt arbetsförmåga till följd av sjukdom, en skyldighet att utreda arbetsanpassnings- och rehabiliteringsmöjligheterna för att möjliggöra återgång i arbete. Rehabiliteringsansvaret regleras främst inom lagen om (1982:80) anställningsskydd, arbetsmiljölagen (1977:1160), socialförsäkringsbalken (2010:110) och kompThe employer's responsibility to rehabilitate is, in connection with an employee's reduced ability to work as a result of illness, an obligation to investigate work adaptation and rehabilitation possibilities to enable a return to work. The responsibility for rehabilitation is mainly regulated within the Employment Protection Act (LAS), the work environment act (AML), the social insurance

Den svenska entreprenadsektorn innehar en särställning inom obligationsrätten på så sätt att det saknas lagstiftning och att det ofta rör sig om komplexa avtalssituationer där den befintliga lagstiftningen inte är direkt tillämpbar. Entreprenaderna är ofta långa avtalsförhållanden som involverar flertalet parter och entreprenörer i flera led, samtidigt som hela entreprenaden i vissa fall kan vara The Swedish construction sector holds a special position in the law of obligations because there is no legislation and there are often complex contractual situations where the existing legislation is not directly applicable. The contracts are often long-term contractual relationships that involve several parties and contractors in several stages, while the entire contract in some cases is fully de

Den utbredda gängkriminaliteten har på senare tid blivit ett alltmer angeläget ämne i den politiska debatten i Sverige och antalet ökade dödsskjutningar i kriminella miljöer har föranlett starka reaktioner. Denna brottsutveckling har motiverat lagstiftaren till att vidta åtgärder i form av utökad lagstiftning som syftar till att möjliggöra effektivare verktyg inom den brottsbekämpande verksamhetenWidespread gang-related crimes have become an increasingly important topic of political debate in Sweden and the escalated number of shootings in criminal environments have caused strong reactions. This has motivated the legislator to extend legislation in a way that enables more effective tools within the law enforcement. A suggestion that has been presented by an investigator for such a measure

Det har länge varit känt att delar av läkares yrkesutövning är av sådan karaktär att den i objektiv mening uppfyller rekvisiten i vissa brottsbestämmelser. Eftersom sjukvården är en önskvärd verksamhet från samhällets sida finns det ett behov av en straffrättslig ansvarsfrihetsregel eller princip som motiverar tillåtligheten i läkares yrkesutövning. I denna uppsats undersöks läkares befogenheter oIt has long been recognized that the professional practice of doctors is of such a nature that in an objective sense it fulfills the requirements of certain criminal acts. Since healthcare is a desirable activity on the part of society, the professional practice of doctors needs to be covered by a discharge from liability that justifies the permissibility of medical practice. This paper examines t

BACKGROUND: There is rapid growth of older people in Low- and Middle- Income Countries (LMICs). The aim of this review was to assess the literature on prevalence of anxiety and depression in this demographic, which to our knowledge, has not yet been conducted.METHODS: Databases including Medline, PsychInfo, Embase, Scielo and African Journals Online were searched for terms including "mental disord

OBJECTIVES: To explore clustering of comorbidities among patients with a new diagnosis of osteoarthritis (OA) and estimate the 10-year mortality risk for each identified cluster.METHODS: This is a population-based cohort study of individuals with first incident diagnosis of OA of the hip, knee, ankle/foot, wrist/hand, or 'unspecified' site between 2006 and 2020, using SIDIAP (a primary care databa

Artificial lighting at nights (ALAN) affects behaviour in many animals, especially nocturnal species. However, its effect on frugivorous bats remains less explored, especially in the family Pteropodidae. Since they rely predominantly on vision and light-based cues, ALAN at roost sites could have consequences on their behaviour, activity, and the ecosystem services they provide. In a semi-urban sit

Objective: Meniscal calcifications are associated with the pathogenesis of knee osteoarthritis (OA). We propose a micro-computed tomography (μCT) based 3D analysis of meniscal calcifications ex vivo, including a new grading system. Method: Human medial and lateral menisci were obtained from 10 patients having total knee replacement for medial compartment OA and 10 deceased donors without knee OA (

The preparation of strongly emissive CsPbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals with robust surface passivation is a challenge in the field of lead halide perovskite nanomaterials. We report an approach to prepare polymer-capped CsPbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals by reacting oleylammonium/oleate-capped Cs4PbBr6 nanocrystals with poly(maleic anhydride-alt-1-octadecene) (PMAO). PMAO contains succinic anhydride un

Biometric signatures based on either the physiological or behavioural features of a person have been widely used for identification and authentication. However, few strategies have been developed that combine the two types of features in one signature. Here, we report a type of biometric signature based on the triboelectricity of the human body (TEHB) that combines these two types of features. Thi

En person med funktionsnedsättning kan stöta på olika hinder i arbetslivet, exempelvis i form av begränsningar på grund av nedsatt arbetsförmåga. I viss mån har arbetsgivaren en skyldighet att undanröja sådana hinder för att förhindra förekomsten av diskriminering på arbetsplatsen. Utifrån den rättsdogmatiska metoden syftar denna uppsats följaktligen till att redogöra för diskrimineringsförbudets A person with a disability may encounter various obstacles in working life, for example in the form of limitations due to reduced working ability. To some extent, the employer has an obligation to remove such obstacles to prevent the occurrence of discrimination in the workplace. Based on the legal dogmatic method, this essay consequently aims to explain the extent of the prohibition of discrimina

Malaria är en dödlig infektionssjukdom som kännetecknas av feber, huvudvärk, muskelvärk och kräkningar och år 2020 uppskattade WHO antalet dödsfall i malaria till 627 000, varav 96 % av fallen skedde i subsahariska Afrika. Sjukdomen orsakas av encelliga parasiter av släktet Plasmodium. Arterna som smittar människor är P. falciparum, P. vivax, P. malariae, P. ovale samt P. knowlesi, varav P. vivax Malaria is a life-threatening disease, but widespread antimalarial drug resistance has become a major obstacle when it comes to malaria treatment. Derivatives of existing drugs are potential drug candidates that can overcome this resistance and in recent years metal derivatives of chloroquine (CQ) have been of interest for their potential antimalarial activity. Three new organometallic complexes o
