Incidence of Dermatitis Herpetiformis in Sweden 2005 to 2018 : A Nationwide Retrospective Cohort Study

Dermatitis herpetiformis has been investigated in the past; however, only a limited number of studies have reported its incidence based on validated nationwide population-based registries. To address this gap, the aims of this study are to estimate the incidence of dermatitis herpetiformis in Sweden and to validate the National Patient Register (NPR) for diagnosis of dermatitis herpetiformis. A po

Degrowth beyond the metropole: theory and praxis for a revolutionary degrowth

This chapter brings the Global South to the centre stage of degrowth debates to envision what a truly global and anti-colonial movement towards degrowth could look like. To do so, we first bring the varying definitions of the term ‘Global South’ to the forefront and consider the Global South not as an undynamic and apolitical cate- gory, but as a site of resistance and independent critical thinkin

Övergångsställens vara eller icke vara : kunskapsöversikt

De relevanta faktorerna för val av övergångsställe eller gångpassage samt för deras utformning på huvudgator beskrivs baserat på litteraturstudie utifrån forskning och handböcker. Några kommuners arbete med översyn av övergångsställen beskrivs och det belyses på vilka grunder som åtgärderna är gjorda och vilket tillvägagångsätt kommunerna har haft. Det görs en sammanställning av olika sätt att öka

Latent sibling violence

This article analyses latent violence to highlight important aspects of our empirical data: qualitative interviews with women who have been subjected to violence by their siblings. The concept points to the fear experienced by victims in close relationships, and the adaptations they make to avoid violence. Although the concept has been applied to family and intimate partner violence, it is also us

Inventory of best practices to prevent incursions into work zones : Literature review

The report reviews the literature to identify existing best practices used to prevent incursions into work zones and improve safety of road users and road workers. A systematic literature search was conducted and various available sources referred to by knowledgeable experts in the field were considered. Best practices found in the literature review comprise both regulatory/management issues and t

Deferred cord clamping, cord milking, and immediate cord clamping at preterm birth : a systematic review and individual participant data meta-analysis

Background: Umbilical cord clamping strategies at preterm birth have the potential to affect important health outcomes. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of deferred cord clamping, umbilical cord milking, and immediate cord clamping in reducing neonatal mortality and morbidity at preterm birth. Methods: We conducted a systematic review and individual participant data meta-anal

Risk of developing psychiatric disease among adult patients with skin disease : A 9-year national register follow-up study in Norway

Background: The existing association between skin disease and psychiatric comorbidity has gained attention during the last decades. Stress and mental illness can directly or indirectly affect skin disease, while dermatological conditions, known to impair life quality and mental well-being, can promote psychiatric conditions. Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the risk of developing ps

Prompt Thrombo-Inflammatory Response to Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury and Kidney Transplant Outcomes

Introduction: In kidney transplantation (KT), the role of the intravascular innate immune system (IIIS) in response to ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is not well-understood. Here, we studied parallel changes in the generation of key activation products of the proteolytic cascade systems of the IIIS following living donor (LD) and deceased donor (DD) transplantation and evaluated potential assoc

Periodontitis is associated with airflow obstruction in the Malmö Offspring Dental Study

AIM: To investigate the association between periodontitis and lung function in the Malmö Offspring Dental Study.MATERIALS AND METHODS: In all 1001 individuals (49.9% female, mean age: 44.6) from Malmö Offspring Dental Study were included. Periodontitis was assessed by a full-mouth examination protocol including bleeding on probing and classified according to the American Academy of Periodontology/

Temporary Partial Weight-Bearing Restriction in Elderly Patients Treated With a Plate Fixation After a Distal Femur Fracture had a Negative Long-Term Impact on Gait Recovery

Background: Restricted weight-bearing is still used after lower extremity fracture surgery in elderly patients. The long-term effect on gait recovery in elderly patients with distal femur fractures (DFF) and their ability to comply with the restrictive weight-bearing regime is unknown. This study aimed to investigate the effect of restricted postoperative weight-bearing on gait recovery (actual we

Unravelling strong temperature-dependence of JHD in transition metal hydrides : solvation and non-covalent interactions versus temperature-elastic H-H bonds

A number of transition metal hydrides reveal intriguing temperature-dependent JHD in their deuterated derivatives and possibly the temperature dependent hydrogen-hydrogen distance (r(H-H)) as well. Previously, theoretical studies rationalized JHD and r(H-H) changes in such compounds through a “temperature-elastic” structure model with a significant population of vibrational states in an anharmonic

Accumulation of advanced glycation end products in skin and increased vascular ageing in the general population : The Malmö Offspring Study

OBJECTIVES: Advanced glycation end product (AGE) is an established risk marker for diabetic vascular disease, and associated with the degree of diabetes complications, renal failure, and atherosclerosis in middle-aged and older individuals. The relationship between AGEs and aortic stiffness has not been thoroughly examined in the younger general population. We aimed to evaluate the association bet

Economic development during the height of colonialism, c. 1920-1960

During the colonial era, economic strategies and policies were shaped by both the colonisers and the colonized, from the imperial offices in the metropoles to the African farmers in the rural communities. Negotiations and interactions, within and between groups, impacted the outcomes at both the state and the individual levels. While we try to highlight this complexity and diversity, it is impossi
