Social stratification of men and women in Sweden 1880-2015

I describe changes in the social structure of the Swedish workforce over the long term. Occupational coding from nine full count censuses from 1880 until 1990 and 2001-2016 occupational registers is aligned to comprehensively map social stratification for birth cohorts born 1820-1985. We show occupational upgrading for working women and men over the past 150 years. The male andfemale workforce con

A Schumpeter Hotel? Surname Status Persistence in Sweden 1880-2016

Conventional social mobility research misses substantial inequalities of opportunity. To capture intergenerational persistence of family social status we need to move beyond parent-child associations in occupation or income. Models that incorporate surname group belonging show that families do not regress to a population mean at the speed implied by parent-child associations. Their mobility is fur

The impact of mothers. Intergenerational mobility in Sweden 1865-2015

How does parental social status affects child status attainment across time? Social mobility studies have traditionally studied parent-child associations using one ‘dominant’ parent to reflect social origin. However, the institutions of family and work have changed substantially over the past 150 years, in Sweden as elsewhere. These changes are associated with changes in intergenerationalstatus mo

Resources Shifting Values : Online and Offline Resources in Swedish Civil Society

Resources have always been at the heart of civil society theorizing. While many earlier theories have focused on resources in the forms of money, people, ideas, or personnel, recent debates highlight the Internet and social media as new environments for resource mobilization. This chapter contributes to current research by comparing the human, economic, and political resources accumulated both offResources have always been at the heart of civil society theorizing.

Development and validation of a patient-reported outcome measure for systemic sclerosis : the EULAR Systemic Sclerosis Impact of Disease (ScleroID) questionnaire

OBJECTIVES: Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are important for clinical practice and research. Given the high unmet need, our aim was to develop a comprehensive PROM for systemic sclerosis (SSc), jointly with patient experts. METHODS: This European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR)-endorsed project involved 11 European SSc centres. Relevant health dimensions were chosen an

Binocular mirror–symmetric microsaccadic sampling enables Drosophila hyperacute 3D vision

Neural mechanisms behind stereopsis, which requires simultaneous disparity inputs from two eyes, have remained mysterious. Here we show how ultrafast mirror-symmetric photomechanical contractions in the frontal forward-facing left and right eye photoreceptors give Drosophila superresolution three-dimensional (3D) vision. By interlinking multiscale in vivo assays with multiscale simulations, we rev

Two Randomized Phase 3 Studies of Aducanumab in Early Alzheimer’s Disease

Background: Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive, irreversible, and fatal disease for which accumulation of amyloid beta is thought to play a key role in pathogenesis. Aducanumab is a human monoclonal antibody directed against aggregated soluble and insoluble forms of amyloid beta. Objectives: We evaluated the efficacy and safety of aducanumab in early Alzheimer’s disease. Design: EMERGE and ENGAG

The gap in life expectancy and lifespan inequality between Iran and neighbour countries: the contributions of avoidable causes of death

BackgroundHealthcare system and intersectoral public health policies play a crucial role in improving population health and reducing health inequalities. This study aimed to quantify their impact, operationalized as avoidable deaths, on the gap in life expectancy (LE) and lifespan inequality (LI) between Iran and three neighbour countries viz., Turkey, Qatar, and Kuwait in 2015–2016.MethodsAnnual

Inclusive conservation and the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework : Tensions and prospects

The draft Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework commits to achievement of equity and justice outcomes and represents a “relational turn” in how we understand inclusive conservation. Although “inclusivity” is drawn on as a means to engage diverse stakeholders, widening the framing of inclusivity can create new tensions with regard to how to manage protected areas. We first offer a set of tensions

Postcardiotomy Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation With and Without Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump

Objectives: To compare the outcomes of patients with postcardiotomy shock treated with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) only compared with VA-ECMO and intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP). Design: A retrospective multicenter registry study. Setting: At 19 cardiac surgery units. Participants: A total of 615 adult patients who required VA-ECMO from 2010 to 2018. The patients we

Generation of intense phase-stable femtosecond hard X-ray pulse pairs

Coherent nonlinear spectroscopies and imaging in the X-ray domain provide direct insight into the coupled motions of electrons and nuclei with resolution on the electronic length scale and timescale. The experimental realization of such techniques will strongly benefit from access to intense, coherent pairs of femtosecond X-ray pulses. We have observed phase-stable X-ray pulse pairs containing mor

Single-particle states and parity doublets in odd- Z Ac 221 and Pa 225 from α -decay spectroscopy

Low-lying states in the odd-Z isotopes Ac13289221 and Pa13491225 have been studied using α-particle and αγ-coincidence spectroscopy in the Pa225→Ac221→Fr217 decay chain. Ground-state spin and parity assignments of Iπ = 5/2- are proposed for both Ac221 and Pa225, with the odd proton occupying the ω = 5/2 orbital of the quadrupole-octupole deformed shell model in both nuclei. In Ac221, excited state

The Prognostic Relevance of PMCA4 Expression in Melanoma : Gender Specificity and Implications for Immune Checkpoint Inhibition

PMCA4 is a critical regulator of Ca2+ homeostasis in mammalian cells. While its biological and prognostic relevance in several cancer types has already been demonstrated, only preclinical investigations suggested a metastasis suppressor function in melanoma. Therefore, we studied the expression pattern of PMCA4 in human skin, nevus, as well as in primary and metastatic melanoma using immunohistoch

Diclofenac for acute postoperative pain in children

Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To assess the efficacy and safety of diclofenac (any dose) for acute postoperative pain management in children compared with placebo, other active comparators, or diclofenac administered by either different routes (e.g. oral, rectal, etc.) or strategies (e.g. as needed versus as scheduled).

Crisis preparedness of hospitality managers : evidence from Malaysia

Purpose: Crisis planning and improvements to business resilience are increasingly significant aspects of hotel management. This study investigates the crisis preparation of hotel managers in Malaysia and how their perceptions affect crisis planning and preparation. Design/methodology/approach: A qualitative research method of semi-structured interviews with 24 hospitality managers in Malaysia was

Arctic amplification modulated by Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation and greenhouse forcing on multidecadal to century scales

Enhanced warming in the Arctic (Arctic amplification, AA) in the last decades has been linked to several factors including sea ice and the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO). However, how these factors contributed to AA variations in a long-term perspective remains unclear. By reconstructing a millennial AA index combining climate model simulations with recently available proxy data, this wor

Comorbidities in osteoarthritis (ComOA) : a combined cross-sectional, case-control and cohort study using large electronic health records in four European countries

Introduction Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the leading chronic conditions in the older population. People with OA are more likely to have one or more other chronic conditions than those without. However, the temporal associations, clusters of the comorbidities, role of analgesics and the causality and variation between populations are yet to be investigated. This paper describes the protocol of a

Sleep duration and risk of cancer incidence and mortality : A pooled analysis of six population-based cohorts in Japan

Sleep duration is emerging as an important modifiable risk factor for morbidity and mortality. We assessed the association between sleep duration and cancer incidence and mortality among Japanese adults using data from six population-based cohorts with 271 694 participants. During a total follow-up period of about 5.9 million person-years, we identified 40 751 incident cancer cases and 18 323 canc

Banach-Valued Multilinear Singular Integrals with Modulation Invariance

We prove that the class of trilinear multiplier forms with singularity over a one-dimensional subspace, including the bilinear Hilbert transform, admits bounded L p-extension to triples of intermediate operatorname UMD spaces. No other assumption, for instance of Rademacher maximal function type, is made on the triple of UMD spaces. Among the novelties in our analysis is an extension of the phase-
