INTRODUCTION: Tourette syndrome (TS) and chronic motor or vocal tic disorder (CTD) are neurodevelopmental disorders associated with functional impairment and reduced quality of life. Behavioral therapy (BT) is an effective treatment, but lack of experienced practitioners makes it hard for patients to receive appropriate help. One approach to bridge the gap between demand and availability is to off

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: The incidence of type 1 diabetes increased during the pandemic in various countries. SARS-CoV-2 infections may trigger the development of type 1 diabetes, but the evidence is inconclusive. This study aimed to assess trends in type 1 diabetes incidence between 2007 and 2023, and to quantify the association between SARS-CoV-2 infections and the risk for developing type 1 diabetes.ME

Background and aim: Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in the intestines activates leukocytes and reactive oxygen species (ROS) and leads to lipid peroxidation and DNA damage. Rosehips have a high content of polyphenols and might prevent lipid peroxidation. Some Lactobacillus species are capable of degrading polyphenols to simpler and non-toxic constituents, sometimes with enhanced antioxidative capacity.

BACKGROUND: Nimodipine improves outcome after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) through mitigation of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). Most studies are based on a treatment duration of 21 days. At our institution, clinical practice is to administer nimodipine for 14 days, regardless of bleeding severity. Treatment is prolonged if signs or symptoms of DCI occurs. The present study aims to r

The polar lipids in oat grains are crucial due to their biological functions, nutritional quality, potential use in food flavour and processing, the protection they provide against biotic and abiotic stresses, and their ability to act as cellular signalling molecules. In this study, we present novel findings about the impacts of fertilization and field management on oat polar lipid and fatty acid

Objective: To design a dynamic prediction model for estimating the time of progression from a single glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibody (GADA) to multiple islet autoantibodies and type 1 diabetes in children, exploring different longitudinally measured risk variables. Research Design and Methods: GADA-positive children (n = 379) participating in The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in

I en tid då verkningarna av den tredje industriella revolutionens utveckling av informationsteknologi utmanar vårt beskattningssystem har den fjärde industriella revolutionen redan inletts. Parallellt med de svårigheter som följer av att försöka fastställa var en digital närvaro ska beskattas står vi inför en samhällsomdanande strukturomvandling, där ökad automatisering pådriven av artificiell int

Syftet med denna rapport är att belysa potentialen i offentlig upphandling, för att främja ett mer inkluderande och jämställt näringsliv, genom att stärka kvinnors företagande i Sverige. Offentlig upphandling är ett betydande verktyg för den offentliga sektorn, inte bara för att anskaffa varor, tjänster och entreprenader, utan också som ett potentiellt styrmedel för att uppnå samhällspolitiska mål

This paper concerns the development of thin films from lignocellulosic biopolymers using deep eutectic solvents (DES). The primary objective is to modify the lignin component and alter material properties, through inclusion of ethylene glycol in a previously proven choline chloride based DES. Additionally, citric acid-based systems are investigated as a greener alternative to more conventional DES

"Gabriel Karlssons utställning Kvarnämne förhåller sig till kvarnens malande som en bild för tanken och materialens ständiga förändring. Att utställningen visas i ett av rummen på Arnstedt Östra Karup som är en gammal vattendriven kvar och att Karlssons ateljé även den ligger i en gammal industrikvarn har blivit utgångspunkten för projektet. I utställningen visas skulpturer installerade i ett rums

At CHART 2025, Arnstedt Östra Karup will present a collaboration between renowned Swedish artists Peter Frie (b. 1947) and Lars Englund (b. 1933), each with a unique artistic path. Frie will exhibit new paintings, while Englund will showcase one or two of his signature sculptures. Despite their different styles, both artists explore timelessness, where history, present, and future merge. Alongside

I takt med att generativ AI har blivit både bättre och mer lättillgänglighar skriftliga examinationsformer såsom uppsatser och hemtentamenbörjat ifrågasättas. Med stöd i den traditionella synen på generativ AIsom ett otillåtet hjälpmedel, där studenten genom tekniken inte självformulerar de skriftliga inlämningarna som ska bedömas, beklagar siglärarkollegor över hur skrivuppgiften urholkas och ris

As international cross-border tax planning increasingly tests domestic legal frameworks,Sweden has relied on a patchwork of different provisions to combat treaty abuse. Throughthe dynamic interplay between its domestic anti-avoidance rules and international treatyprovisions, Sweden has occasionally deployed its targeted Specific Anti-Avoidance Rules(SAARs) and even discussed the possibility of app

This study examines how atypical employment conditions influence safety reporting behaviours among commercial European pilots, focusing on the cognitive and systemic factors that shape reporting practices within Safety Management Systems (SMS). Using narrative inquiry, the research identifies how precarious/atypical employment arrangements foster workplace anxiety, misattributed as fear. This misa

I denna avhandling undersöks opinionsundersökningens introduktion i Sverige under mitten av 1900-talet. Fokus ligger på Svenska Gallupinstitutet AB, som 1941 etablerades som landets första opinionsinstitut och som introducerade den urvalsbaserade enkätundersökningen som ett nytt medium genom vilket den allmänna opinionen kunde representeras. De hade i princip monopol på området till 1950-talets miThis thesis examines the introduction and impact of opinion polling in Sweden during the mid-twentieth century, focusing on the activities of the Swedish Gallup Institute (Svenska Gallupinstitutet). Established in 1941 as the country’s first polling organization, the institute introduced sample surveys as a new means of representing public opinion and had a near-monopoly on polling until its decli

This paper provides novel evidence of the impact of temperature fluctuations on retirement behavior and underlying mechanisms, combining 30 years of rich longitudinal survey data with granular daily weather information. Exposureto cold and hot temperatures accelerates transitions into retirement, particularly among individuals unaccustomed to such conditions, and the effects are strongest among vu

In the software industry, the drive to add new features often overshadows the need to improve existing code. Large Language Models (LLMs) offer a new approach to improving codebases at an unprecedented scale through AI-assisted refactoring. However, LLMs come with inherent risks such as braking changes and the introduction of security vulnerabilities. We advocate for encapsulating the interaction
