To complete a new Swedish railway line in a much shorter timeframe than today, alter natives to the traditional methods need to be explored. One option is the use of prefabricated concrete slabs elevated on piers, analogous to the concept used in China for building new railways in record time (He et al., 2017). The method has the advantage of directly tackling the barrier effects exhibited by trad
When I intend to J, I may be wrong about what I intend but not about who intendsit. In this sense, action intentions appear immune to error. A standard explanationof this immunity is that the subject of the intention is not represented in the contentof the intention in the first place. When I think that we intend to J, it seems obviousthat I can misjudge who ‘we’ are. This may seem to indicate tha
Across the world, so-called warlord democrats (WDs) – former military or political leaders of armed groups who subsequently enter formal electoral politics – strongly influence the dynamics and trajectory of post-civil war politics. However, scholarship on war-to-peace transitions and post-conflict politics have often failed to pay attention to the agency of these important actors. This article re
Denna studie undersöker hur äldreboenden presenterade sina verksamheter på Instagram under covid-19-pandemins första år, genom kvalitativ analys av fyra intervjuer med företrädare för äldreboenden, samt 1748 bilder från två Instagramkonton.Resultatet visar att medan boendenas företrädare i intervjuerna beskrev år 2020 som kaosartat, presenterades livet på äldreboendena på Instagram som aktivt och
BackgroundThe problem with substandard and falsified (SF) medical products may grow in high-income countries when e-commerce of medicines increases. Unauthorized websites offer medicines of insufficient quality. This underscores the importance of evaluating how the problem with SF medical products can be prevented from escalating. However, little is known about what knowledge and experience profes
How may a “craft-orientation” facilitate a shift toward an ecologically sustainable economy that does not perceive the pursuit of economic growth as a self-evident good? Responding to this question, this paper is rooted in the argument that efforts to increase economic growth collide with ecological sustainability goals and pose a substantial threat to human prosperity. Drawing on key insights fro
Ensuring that the existing social inequalities of the current energy system are not transferred to the new system is crucial for the transition towards a low-carbon economy. This is the domain of energy justice—a normative and evaluative framework that has been applied extensively throughout the past decade for understanding the perspective of disadvantaged energy users. However, less attention ha
Money is central to capitalism and to our many sustainability crises. Could we remake money so as to advance sustainable economies and fair societies? A growing number of scholars, politicians, and activists think we can, and they are doing it from the bottom up. This book examines how grassroots groups, municipalities and radical crypto-entrepreneurs are remaking money by designing and organising
Magnetic susceptibility can be assessed by quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM), based on measured magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) phase data. The QSM reconstruction process is, however, mathematically challenging and still not fully robust. A signal-generating holmium [Ho(III)] aqueous solution with air-equivalent magnetic susceptibility was prepared, and used as a surrounding medium in a w
Purpose: This article aims to illustrate diffractive vignettes as a methodology to extend current communicative and performative approaches. We engage with the critical ethical- onto-epistemological underpinnings of diffraction and explore how it can sensitize communicative research (in particular within the Montréal School (TMS) of CCO scholarship) to processes of materialization - what comes to
Based on a review of the correspondence between Swedish diplomats in the Baltic States and the Swedish Foreign Ministry for the years 1938–1940, the purpose of this article is, firstly, to elaborate a framework for the analysis of intelligence reporting in times of crisis, secondly, to investigate how the Swedish diplomats in the Baltic States went about to report intelligence, and thirdly, to tryBased on a review of the correspondence between Swedish diplomats in the Baltic States and the Swedish Foreign Ministry for the years 1938–1940, the purpose of this article is, firstly, to elaborate a framework for the analysis of intelligence reporting in times of crisis, secondly, to investigate how the Swedish diplomats in the Baltic States went about to report intelligence, and thirdly, to try
Importance: Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) with acquired pathogenic variants in myeloid leukemia driver genes is common in older adults but of unknown prognostic value. Objective: To investigate the prevalence of CH and the utility of the CH risk score (CHRS) in estimating all-cause and disease-specific mortality in older adults with CH. Design, Setting, and Participants: This population-based prospect
Purpose: To report on the occurrence of postoperative visual axis opacification (VAO) in children younger than 5 years of age operated for cataract in Sweden, and to analyse correlations with age at surgery and surgical method. Methods: Data were derived from the Swedish Pediatric Cataract Register (PECARE). All children operated on between 1 January 2007 and 31 December 2020 were included. Follow
In a recent paper, Fack et al. (2019, American Economic Review) convincingly argue and theoretically demonstrate that there may be strong incentives for students to play non-truth-telling strategies when reporting preferences over schools, even when the celebrated deferred acceptance algorithm is employed. Their statistical test also rejects the (weak) truth-telling assumption in favour of another
Objective: The primary aim of this study was to examine the association between the different predicted phenotypes of the polymorphic CYP2D6 gene and the prevalence of adverse drug reactions in patients suffering from depressive disorders. The secondary aim was to investigate if comedication with CYP2D6 inhibitors resulted in more adverse drug reactions due to phenoconversion. Methods: Between Jan
OBJECTIVE To estimate the risk of all cause and cause specific mortality in people with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) compared with matched unaffected people from the general population and with their unaffected siblings. DESIGN Population based matched cohort and sibling cohort study. SETTING Register linkage in Sweden. PARTICIPANTS Population based cohort including 61 378 people with OCD a
