I Helsingborgs stad genomfördes 2016 till 2017 ett projekt som syftade till att förbättra samverkan mellan skola och HVB-hem för att gynna integrationsarbetet.Integration ska, enligt svensk politik, kännetecknas av invandrares och flyktingars rätt till välfärdstjänster. Personer som kommer som invandrare eller flyktingar har också rätt att bejaka och uttrycka sin egen kulturella identitet och ska

Human-induced climate change is expected to cause major biotic changes in species distributions and thereby including escalation of novel host-parasite associations. Closely related host species that come into secondary contact are especially likely to exchange parasites and pathogens. Both the Enemy Release Hypothesis (where invading hosts escape their original parasites) and the Novel Weapon Hyp

Background: Little research has been conducted regarding the relationship between sleep disorders and different pain types in Parkinson's disease (PD). Objective: To explore the influence of the various pain subtypes experienced by PD patients on sleep. Methods: Three hundred consecutive PD patients were assessed with the PD Sleep Scale-Version 2 (PDSS-2), King's PD Pain Scale (KPPS), King's PD Pa

Breast cancer patients with BRCA1/2-driven tumors may benefit from targeted therapy. It is not clear whether current BRCA screening guidelines are effective at identifying these patients. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the prevalence of inherited BRCA1/2 pathogenic variants in a large, clinically representative breast cancer cohort and to estimate the proportion of BRCA1/2 carriers not d

Background: Portal vein occlusion (PVO) is an established method to increase the volume of the future liver remnant (FLR). The main reasons for not proceeding to radical hepatectomy are lack of volume increase and tumor progression due to a wait-time interval of up to 8 weeks. The hypothesis was that the increase in FLR volume is not linear and is largest during the first weeks. Methods: Patients

Background: Aortic valve stenosis (AVS) and coronary artery disease (CAD) have a significant genetic contribution and commonly co-exist. To compare and contrast genetic determinants of the two diseases, we investigated associations of the LPA and 9p21 loci, i.e. the two strongest CAD risk loci, with risk of AVS. Methods: We genotyped the CAD-associated variants at the LPA (rs10455872) and 9p21 loc

The ongoing emission of greenhouse gases (GHGs) is triggering changes in many climate hazards that can impact humanity. We found traceable evidence for 467 pathways by which human health, water, food, economy, infrastructure and security have been recently impacted by climate hazards such as warming, heatwaves, precipitation, drought, floods, fires, storms, sea-level rise and changes in natural la

En hemgjord ask av näver -- vad behöver man? Ett stycke ny samhällsvetenskaplig kunskap -- vad behöver man? Den här texten är ett föredrag om akademiskt hantverk och dess material, verktyg, åskådliggörande, ändamål och estetik.
