Background The underlying mechanisms of thrombosis in Lemierre's syndrome and other septic thrombophlebitis are incompletely understood. Therefore, in this case-control study we aimed to generate hypotheses on its pathogenesis by studying the plasma proteome in patients with these conditions. Methods All patients with Lemierre's syndrome in the Skåne Region, Sweden were enrolled prospectively duri

A new wave of encroachments is unfolding in Northern Sweden on the lands of Indigenous Sámi reindeer pastoralists. Even if the State and corporations may accept that landscape transformations represent threats to reindeer pastoralists' cultural and livelihood practices, attempts to redress these grievances often involve money to cover costs associated with feeding practices or mechanized transport

The COVID-19 pandemic has jolted the health system globally and a paucity of specific drugs and/or vaccine hesitancy led clinicians to indiscriminately use antibiotics. Furthermore, during the early waves of the COVID-19 pandemic, several studies showcased the anti-SARS-CoV-2 efficacy of few antibiotics which further catapulted the idea of using them after emergency approval by the Food and Drug A

7 October is one of the bloodiest days in Jewish history, excluding the Holocaust. It is a day that many generations will remember with sadness and horror. Israel should note this day on its calendar as a Memorial Day.7 October was a game changer for Israel, for Hamas, for Gaza and for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The reality after the horrific 7 October attack has changed dramatically.

BACKGROUND: Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is a potentially severe complication of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT). However, the relationship between the incidence and severity of ICH and vascular occlusion location is not well described.OBJECTIVE: To present a comprehensive analysis of subtypes of ICHs and their relationship to the occlusion site following EVT in the anterior circulation.METHODS:

There is currently a lack of studies exploring how transport investments and school admission policies in a city can affect the distribution of accessibility to schools. The aim of this study is to investigate if, for whom, and the ways in which, accessibility to schools can change following (1) a change to the city’s public school admission policy and (2) investments in public transport infrastru

Today the UGR tabular method according to CIE 117-195 and CIE 190-210, is practically the only one used for evaluation of glare in the lighting design process. It is important to investigate if the method is in line with the subjective perception of glare (SGI). The objective of the study was to investigate whether the perceived discomfort glare from commonly used lighting systems for workplaces i

A search for new phenomena has been performed in final states with at least one isolated high-momentum photon, jets and missing transverse momentum in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of s = 13 TeV. The data, collected by the ATLAS experiment at the CERN LHC, correspond to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1. The experimental results are interpreted in a supersymmetric model in

The aim of this study was to investigate how hospital counselors in specialized palliative care reason about their discretion and their professional role in the multi-professional team, in order to deepen the understanding of their professional role as well as the psychosocial work that is carried out within the medical context. The methodology was based on a qualitative approach using seven semi-

Objectives: To assess the antiviral effect, clinical outcomes, and safety of the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) fusion inhibitor rilematovir in non-hospitalized RSV-infected adults. Methods: This phase 2a, double-blind, multicentre study randomly assigned RSV-positive adult outpatients ≤5 days from symptom onset 1:1:1 to receive rilematovir 500 mg, 80 mg, or placebo once-daily for 7 days. Antiv

This chapter begins by providing a general contextualisation of hate speech and the controversies around it. It then asks two questions: Is Holocaust denial a form of hate speech? If the answer is positive, should Holocaust denial be banned?The second section explains what is hate speech. The third section is concerned with the relationship between hate speech and hate crime. The fourth section di

This paper, by highlighting the experiences and reflections of experts and practitioners, aims to increase knowledge of how social impact assessment is managed and handled at various stages of the planning process in major infrastructure investments in Sweden. Interviews were conducted with nine experts and practitioners working with issues of transport planning and social sustainability. The info

In response to growing criticism of new public management reforms, the Nordic countries have introduced so-called trust reforms aimed at transforming public sector management and leadership.

This thesis explores the under-recognised yet symptomatic visual motif of two women, a recurring theme within a vast array of pictorial examples. Its primary objective is to construct a theoretical and methodological framework capable of comprehending the multiplicity of images in the form of an image collection: The Atlas of Two Women. This inquiry primarily draws on Walter Benjamin’s concept of

Proteins are one of three macro-components of a diet. An increasing demand for products that can be a complete protein source exists. The vulnerability of the current food system towards environmental impacts and the inability to keep up with the rising population has shifted the focus on valorising underutilised by-products of the food industry. The rapeseed cake (a leftover from rapeseed oil pro
