Cerebral palsy (CP) is present in about 200 children per birth-year cohort in Sweden. From 2001 to 2016, the annual number of immigrants to Sweden with CP enrolled at the (re)habilitation services increased from less than ten to 40-90 individuals per year; about 70 % came to Sweden as refugees. At a group level, children with CP born abroad had greater functional impairment than children born in S

INTRODUCTION: Risk stratification based on biochemical variables is a useful tool for monitoring ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA)-treated patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). Several UDCA response criteria and scoring systems have been proposed for risk prediction in PBC, but these have not been validated in large external cohorts. METHODS: We performed a study on data of 1746 UDCA-treated

We identified the first two cases of the Finnish new variant of Chlamydia trachomatis (F-nvCT) beyond Finland in two clinical urogenital specimens in Örebro County, Sweden. These Aptima Combo 2 assay-negative specimens were Aptima Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) assay positive and had the characteristic C1515T mutation in the 23S rRNA gene. From 22 March to 31 May 2019, 1.3% (2/158) of the CT-positive

The European birch sawfly Arge pullata (Zaddach) was found for the first time in Sweden in the early 2000s. According to a report in the local newspaper it was present on the Falsterbo peninsula, Skåne province, from 2000 at the latest, and in the following years a number of records were reported from the same restricted area. Subsequently it has expanded its range in southern Sweden. It is unusua

In acute mesenteric ischemia, early diagnosis should optimally be followed by either open or endovascular intestinal revascularization. All too often, diagnosis is delayed and diagnosis and treatment are performed at the same time during explorative laparotomy. The majority of patients will be diagnosed when transmural intestinal infarction has developed and at this time point damage control strat

Purpose: Postresuscitation neuroprognostication is guided by neurophysiological tests, biomarker measurement, and clinical examination. Recent investigations suggest that circulating microRNAs (miRNA) may help in outcome prediction after cardiac arrest. We assessed the ability of miR-574-5p to predict neurological outcome after cardiac arrest, in a sex-specific manner. Methods: In this substudy of

• 1-Octen-3-yl acetate; a safety assessment based on RIFM's criteria.• A safety assessment based on 7 human health endpoints plus environmental.• All endpoints were cleared using target data, read-across, and/or TTC.

Vi har tidigare tagit del av av flera olika inventeringar av lunglaven i södra Sverige. Nu har projektet gått in i en ny fas och man vill försöka förstå mikroklimatet vid förekomster av lunglaven. Läs mer om hur man vill gå tillväga.

Most present face recognition approaches recognize faces based on still images. In this paper, we present a novel approach to recognize faces in video. In that scenario, the face gallery may consist of still images or may be derived from a videos. For evidence integration we use classical Bayesian propagation over time and compute the posterior distribution using sequential importance sampling. Th

Even though each country is trying to follow its own monetary policy, it is affecting other countries which have, trade and capital flow links with each other. hence, the monetary policy of each individual country has an impact at the global level. The study analyses this interdependence. More specifically, this book discusses the emerging international financial structure, the liquidity crises, f
