The Effect of Birth Spacing on Child Mortality in Sweden, 1878-1926

A negative association between interval length and infant and child mortality has been consistently identified in modern developing countries. The reasons for this association are unclear, however. Leading hypotheses explain these differences as a result of sibling competition, maternal depletion, infection transmission, or unobserved maternal factors, but none has received overwhelming support. U

Tågerup - fifteen hundred years of Mesolithic occupation in Western Scania, Sweden: a preliminary view.

The slopes of the Tågerup promontory in western Scania contain one of the largest known Mesolithic settlements that has ever been excavated in Scandinavia. The Tågerup site displays a unique combination of huts and houses, graves and wooden implements, flints and bones which constitute a 1500-year-long Mesolithic occupation sequence, dated 6500–5000 cal BC. During that time, there were gradual but

COASTAL EROSION AND BEACH NOURISHMENT IN SCANIA AS ISSUES IN SWEDISH COASTAL POLICY

I den här artikeln diskuteras kustpolicyförändringar i Sverige och deras dynamik, med stranderosion ochstrandfodring som exempel. Analysen baseras på Multiple Stream – modellen, som är en teoretisk modell förpolicyutveckling och agendasättning, utvecklad av samhällsvetaren John Kingdon (1984, 2003). Kustskydd ärinte ett separat policyområde i Sverige; åtgärder för att skydda allmän kust är ofta en

CHANGING WIND PROPERTIES IN SOUTH SWEDEN SINCE THE DAYS OF TYCHO BRAHE

Den kände astronomen Tycho Brahe initierade meteorologiska observationer på ön Ven som noterades i endagbok, nästan oavbrutet från oktober 1582 till april 1597. Fastän observationerna huvudsakligen är kvalitativapå grund av dåtida brist på instrument och metoder kan en stor mängd användbar information erhållas fråndagboken beträffande molntäcke, nederbörd, vindhastighet och riktning, temperaturför

C-reactive protein concentrations and level of physical activity in men and women with normal and impaired glucose tolerance : A cross-sectional population-based study in Sweden

Background: We aimed to explore the association between self-reported leisure time physical activity (LTPA) and C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations in men and women with and without impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). Methods: In a cross-sectional study, a random sample (n = 2,816) was examined with an oral glucose tolerance test, CRP and information about LTPA. Those with IGT or normal glucose

Interacting factors associated with Low antibiotic prescribing for respiratory tract infections in primary health care - A mixed methods study in Sweden

Background: Prescribing of antibiotics for common infections varies widely, and there is no medical explanation. Systematic reviews have highlighted factors that may influence antibiotic prescribing and that this is a complex process. It is unclear how factors interact and how the primary care organization affects diagnostic procedures and antibiotic prescribing. Therefore, we sought to explore an
