Gender

My chapter gives an overview of gender and religion in Europe in the “long” 19th century based on developments in historical research since the 1980s. The focus is on Catholicism and Protestantism with some reflexions also on Judaism and Orthodox Christianity.

Protest i traditionens namn : Den katolska traditionalistiska rörelsen

Det finns en stark traditionalistisk rörelse inom katolska kyrkan. Bakgrunden är de reformer som genomfördes som ett resultat andra vatikankonciliet 1962-1965. Konciliet banade väg för en mer öppen form av katolicism, som av många konservativt sinnade katoliker uppfattades som ett avsteg från den katolska tron och traditionen. För att värna vad man uppfattar som den sanna katolicismen har dessa tr

The Importance of Owner Relationship in Shaping Hybrid Organizations

The focus of this chapter is the relationship between owners and hybrid organizations with focus on public-private hybrid constellation and corporations owned by local governments. These companies are hybrids since they are governed as private profit-oriented companies but provide public services and incorporate public values. The main takeaway from the analysis in the chapter is that two dimensio

Sweden’s engagement in global health : a historical review

Background: Sweden is a long-standing and significant contributor to overseas development aid. This commitment to global health and development is part of Sverigebilden, or the view of Sweden in the world that is formally promoted by the Swedish government. Sweden is seen by many in the global health community as leader on human rights and health and has traditionally been one of the most engaged

Functional Role of Glycosaminoglycans in Decellularized Lung Extracellular Matrix

Despite progress in use of decellularized lung scaffolds in ex vivo lung bioengineering schemes, including use of gels and other materials derived from the scaffolds, the detailed composition and functional role of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteoglycans (PGs) and their glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains remaining in decellularized lungs, is poorly understood. Using a commonly utilized detergent-base

Prognostic regression models of life expectancy after diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease – a 20-year follow-up.

Background: To determine characteristics that might affect survival times in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients treated with cholinesterase inhibitors (ChEI) in clinical practice, and create statistical models of estimated life-span after AD diagnosis. Method: The Swedish Alzheimer Treatment Study (SATS) is a prospective, observational, multicenter study to evaluate the use of long-term ChEI therap

High prevalence of hip and groin problems in professional ice hockey players, regardless of playing position

Purpose The prevalence of hip and groin problems in professional male ice hockey is unknown and suspected to differ between playing positions. The purpose of this study was to explore potential differences in the seasonal prevalence of hip and groin problems between playing positions in male elite ice hockey players and to explore the relationship between symptom duration and hip and groin functi

An optical power limiting and ultrafast photophysics investigation of a series of multi-branched heavy atom substituted fluorene molecules

A common molecular design paradigm for optical power limiting (OPL) applications is to introduce heavy atoms that promote intersystem crossing and triplet excited states. In order to investigate this effect, three multi-branched fluorene molecules were prepared where the central moiety was either an organic benzene unit, para-dibromobenzene, or a platinum(II)-alkynyl unit. All three molecules show

New modifications of Swedish ROP guidelines based on 10-year data from the SWEDROP register

Background/aims: During the last decade, improved neonatal care has resulted in increased survival of the most immature infants and improved health of more mature infants. We hypothesise that this has affected incidence and treatment of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), enabling guidelines for screening to be modified. Methods: In Sweden, all infants with gestational age (GA) at birth ≤30 weeks ar

On the political feasibility of climate change mitigation pathways : Is it too late to keep warming below 1.5°C?

Keeping global warming below 1.5°C is technically possible but is it politically feasible? Understanding political feasibility requires answering three questions: (a) “Feasibility of what?,” (b) “Feasibility when and where?,” and (c) “Feasibility for whom?.” In relation to the 1.5°C target, these questions translate into (a) identifying specific actions comprising the 1.5°C pathways; (b) assessing

Breathlessness, Anxiety, Depression, and Function–The BAD-F Study : A Cross-Sectional and Population Prevalence Study in Adults

Context: Breathlessness is associated with depression, but its relationship to anxiety or impaired function is less clear. Objectives: This study evaluated associations between chronic breathlessness and anxiety, depression, and functional status in the general population. Methods: This cross-sectional study of consenting adults (18 years and older) used an online survey. Quota sampling (n = 3000)

The Role of Complement in Transfusion-Related Acute Lung Injury

Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) is a life-threatening complication of acute respiratory distress occurring within 6 hours of blood transfusion. TRALI is one of the leading causes of transfusion-related fatalities and specific therapies are unavailable. Neutrophils are recognized as the major pathogenic cells, whereas T regulatory cells and dendritic cells appear to be important for p

The COMBS survey – I. Chemical origins of metal-poor stars in the Galactic bulge

Chemistry and kinematic studies can determine the origins of stellar population across the Milky Way. The metallicity distribution function of the bulge indicates that it comprises multiple populations, the more metal-poor end of which is particularly poorly understood. It is currently unknown if metal-poor bulge stars ([Fe/H]

Mining the Proteome Associated with Rheumatic and Autoimmune Diseases

A steady increase in the incidence of osteoarthritis and other rheumatic diseases has been observed in recent decades, including autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthropathies, systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, and Sjögren's syndrome. Rheumatic and autoimmune diseases (RADs) are characterized by the inflammation of joints, muscles, or other connective tis
