Sovereignty and Bureaucracy in the Official Public Theories of the "Refugee Crisis" of 2015 in Sweden

In 2017, the Swedish government published an official report entitled "Att ta emot människor på flykt: Sverige hösten 2015." The report describes how Swedish state agencies, municipalities, and civil society conceptualized and managed the refugee crisis of 2015. This chapter spells out the official public theories expressed in this report and in doing so unfolds two key findings. First, the govern

The Spanish version of the Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation outcome measure : Cross-cultural adaptation process, reliability, measurement error and construct validity

Background: The Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE) is a widely used measure of patient-reported disability and pain related to wrist disorders. We performed cross-cultural adaptation of the PRWE into Spanish (Spain) and assessed reliability and construct validity in patients with distal radius fracture. Methods: Adaptation of the English version to Spanish (Spain) was performed using translatio

Measuring the end-of-life premium in cancer using individual ex ante willingness to pay

For the assessment of value of new therapies in healthcare, Health Technology Assessment (HTA) agencies often review the cost per quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) gained. Some HTA agencies accept a higher cost per QALY gained when treatment is aimed at prolonging survival for patients with a short expected remaining lifetime, a so-called end-of-life (EoL) premium. The objective of this study is t

Tunable high-harmonic generation by chromatic focusing of few-cycle laser pulses

In this work we study the impact of chromatic focusing of few-cycle laser pulses on high-order-harmonic generation (HHG) through analysis of the emitted extreme ultraviolet (XUV) radiation. Chromatic focusing is usually avoided in the few-cycle regime, as the pulse spatiotemporal structure may be highly distorted by the spatiotemporal aberrations. Here, however, we demonstrate it as an additional

The core of sibling stem cell donation-A grounded theory study

Background: There is a lack of theoretical framework supporting stem cell transplant nurses in their assessment, judgment and caring interventions of sibling stem cell donors. Objective: The purpose of this study was to explore sibling stem cell donors’ main concerns and how they deal with them before and after donation. Method: Ten healthy sibling donors, 5 men and 5 women, with a median age of 5

Visual proteomics of the human pathogen Leptospira interrogans

Systems biology conceptualizes biological systems as dynamic networks of interacting elements, whereby functionally important properties are thought to emerge from the structure of such networks. Owing to the ubiquitous role of complexes of interacting proteins in biological systems, their subunit composition and temporal and spatial arrangement within the cell are of particular interest. 'Visual

Reality TV Crime Programs

Crime reality television is a significant origin story in understanding reality entertainment. In the 1980s, crime reality television captured the public’s imagination with cold cases, ongoing criminal investigations, surveillance feeds, and live appeals to the public for information to catch criminals. Early crime reality television borrowed from other factual genres, including news reportage, cr
