The debate on the legislation on sexual offense has a long history regarding the current wording, which defines the circumstances of the crimes rape and sexual coercion should be removed and the line between criminal and unpunished deed should be drawn at the level of whether participation was involuntarily. In October 2016 the Sexual Offences Committee introduces a new SOU (Swedish Government Off
Previous reports and studies have found that gender, socioeconomic status, migration background and education are important factors in explaining reading amongst young people. A previous report from the Swedish Agency for Youth and Civil Society indicate that there are differences in reading depending on gender and birth country using confidence intervals. However, the report indicated that living

Popular Abstract in English Every year globally, an estimated 1.7 million women are diagnosed with breast cancer, while over half a million are killed by this disease. The principal cause of death is metastasis, which is the spreading of the cancer cells from the breast to other vital organs like the brain, liver or lungs, resulting in organ failure and subsequently death. Even though the past decMetastasis is a complex process that remains a major challenge in the clinical management of cancer, because most cancer-related deaths are attributed to disseminated disease rather than the primary tumor. Despite the significant advances in the prediction of prognosis, and therapeutic management of primary breast cancers, coupled with the substantial improvement in our understanding of the molecu
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a heterogenic non-Hodgkin lymphoma entity, with a median survival of about 5 years. In 2008 we reported the early based on the median observation time of 4 years results of the Nordic Lymphoma Group MCL2 study of frontline intensive induction immunochemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), with more than 60% event-free survival at 5 years, and no s

4 mars 2026 13:00 till 15:00 | Seminarium This seminar is organised by the research network CDR - Communication, Defense Willingness, and Democratic Resilience. AbstractThe genealogy of the concept of resilience is non-linear and complex. While it has been appropriated by various ideological discourses, it has also given rise to robust, paradigmatically new scientific approaches that convincingly

From an interdisciplinary approach, this study aims at analyzing self-reported animal fear, specifically large carnivore fear, in relation to public willingness to pay to fulfill a governmental policy on large carnivore-induced costs. In a survey in Sweden involving more than 2,000 respondents, it was found that people whose animal fear was directed particularly toward large carnivores were less l
Endoglin is a transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) accessory receptor recently identified as being highly expressed on long-term repopulating hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) However, little is known regarding its function in these cells. We have used two complementary approaches toward understanding endoglin's role in HSC biology: one that efficiently knocks down expression via lentiviral-dri
Today, we live in an age that is continually witnessing tension, strife and terrorism as a direct product of unequal distribution of wealth and opportunities for a good life. In Uganda for over two and half decades, war, insurgency and deprivation have been the realities of the people living in Northern Uganda. This evidently has lead to an imbalance in the Ugandan society with the North standing
Background: There are known associations between cardiovascular disease (CVD)-related plasma proteins and spirometry measures. Diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) measures gas exchange that can be impaired both by lung and heart diseases. We aimed to study the associations between DLCO and CVD-linked plasma proteins in a population-based cohort without airflow obstruction. Methods: 89 CV
OBJECTIVE: Emergency department length of stay (EDLOS) is linked to crowding and patient outcomes whereas worse prognosis in low socioeconomic status remains poorly understood. We studied whether income was associated with ED process times among patients with chest pain.METHODS: This was a registry-based cohort study on 124,980 patients arriving at 14 Swedish EDs between 2015 and 2019 with chest p
Background: Peripheral blood eosinophilia and lung mucosal eosinophil infiltration are hallmarks of bronchial asthma. IL-5 is a critical cytokine for eosinophil maturation, survival, and mobilization. Attempts to target eosinophils for the treatment of asthma by means of IL-5 neutralization have only resulted in partial removal of airway eosinophils, and this warrants the development of more effec
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is characterized by dysfunction of respiratory cilia and sperm flagella and random determination of visceral asymmetry. Here, we identify the DRC1 subunit of the nexin-dynein regulatory complex (N-DRC), an axonemal structure critical for the regulation of dynein motors, and show that mutations in the gene encoding DRC1, CCDC164, are involved in PCD pathogenesis.
