Increased incidence of narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) was observed following Pandemrix®‐vaccination, initiated as a preventive measure against the 2009 Influenza pandemic. Here, single cell analysis was conducted to suggest a lower number of CD8+CD27+ T cells among these patients. These findings provide understanding into the autoimmune pathogenesis of NT1.

Post-fracture care (PFC) programs evaluate and manage patients with a minimal trauma or fragility fracture to prevent subsequent fractures. We conducted a literature review to understand current trends in PFC publications, evaluate key characteristics of PFC programs, and assess their clinical effectiveness, geographic variations, and cost-effectiveness. We performed a search for peer-reviewed art

Patient participation and the environment are critical factors in achieving qualitative healthcare. We conducted a systematic scoping review using Arksey and O’Malley’s framework to identify instruments intended to measure patient participation. We assessed those instruments’ characteristics, which areas of the healthcare continuum they target, and whether environmental factors are considered. Ins

Hans Henrik Lidgard enligt delegation Abstract: Konkurrensverkets undersökningar på plats innebär en stor belastning på företagen som normalt torde ha all anledning att försöka korta ner konkurrensverkets vistelse på företaget av i stort sett samma skäl som konkurrensverket av effektivitetsskäl önskar genomföra undersökningen i verkets egna lokaler när så är möjligt. Det förefaller därför sannolik

Dopamine replacement therapy with L-DOPA is the most efficacious symptomatic treatment for Parkinson's disease, but its utility is limited by a development of motor fluctuations and abnormal involuntary movements (dyskinesia) in the majority of patients. These complications are attributed to the combined effects of dopaminergic degeneration and non-physiological reinstatement of dopamine transmiss

Background: Swedish Emergency Departments (EDs) see 2.6 million visits annually. Sweden has a strong tradition of health care databases, but information on patients’ pathways to the ED is not documented in any registry. The aim of this study was to provide a national overview of pathways, degree of medical acuteness according to triage, chief complaints, and hospital admission rates for adult pati

How are bribes supposed to be given or taken? In this article, we study how individuals from countries with low tolerance of corruption learn, teach others and present themselves as knowledgeable about the etiquette of bribes. This involves the social practices of everyday corruption and petty bribes when working as ’strangers’ in countries where such exchanges are more common. Previous interviews

The transition from fossil jet fuel to biojet fuel is an important step towards reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from aviation. To enable such a fuel shift, the Swedish Government introduced a GHG emission reduction mandate of 27% by 2030 for aviation fuel sold in Sweden, forcing fuel suppliers to blend in biojet fuel in fossil jet fuel. A similar policy instrument is being discussed within

Edinburgh was an Enlightenment city of regional, national and global influence. But how did the people of Enlightenment Edinburgh understand and order their world? How did they encounter, compare and produce different kinds of spaces, from the urban to the world scale? And how did this city set the universal standards by which other places should be judged and transformed?The Geographies of Enligh

BACKGROUND: The recent systematic adoption of intracameral antibiotic injection during cataract surgery in Sweden, India, and the US serves as a model for the successful transitioning of local quality improvement initiatives to organization-wide implementation. Although the delivery of eye care in the 3 countries is distinctly organized with differing governances and technological infrastructure,

Konsumtionen är en stor samtidsfråga, men trots att fler handlar allt mer medvetet är svenskarna fortfarande bland världens sämsta när det gäller överkonsumtion. Två forskare vid Lunds Universitet ser hur anti-konsumtionen växer sig allt starkare. Men kommer också näringslivet att förändras?

Hur tusan blev det då så här och hur kan vi bryta det? Tänk om vi slutade skryta om våra nya inköp på sociala medier och berömma andra för deras saker.

Factorization methods are frequently used for structure from motion problems (SfM). In the presence of noise they are able to jointly estimate camera matrices and scene points in overdetermined settings, without the need for accurate initial solutions. While the early formulations were restricted to affine models, recent approaches have been show to work with pinhole cameras by minimizing object s

Drag torque in a disc brake is the residual torque when the brake is not activated. This torque can adversely influence the total energy consumption, life of the brake components, and level of airborne wear particles from vehicles. Drag torque is of special interest for long haul trucking since it could have an effect of the total energy consumption. Drag torque performance of a disc brake is usua
