Objectives: To investigate women’s decision-making on induced abortion. Materials and methods: A multi-centre cross-sectional survey among 623 abortion-seeking women in Sweden (2021). The perceived difficulty to decide on abortion was measured using a 7-point Likert scale, and analysed with univariate and multivariate analysis (odds ratios [OR], 95% confidence intervals [CI]). Results: About half

This paper presents a topology optimization framework utilizing a deformation plasticity model to approximate the isotropic hardening von-Mises incremental elastoplasticity model under monotone proportional loading. One advantage of the model is that it is based on a yield surface allowing for precise matching to uniaxial elastoplastic isotropic hardening response. The deformation plasticity model

Plant species sometimes perform extraordinarily well when introduced to new environments, through achieving higher growth rates, individual biomasses or higher densities in their receiving communities compared to their native range communities. One hypothesis proposed to explain enhanced performance in species’ new environments is that their soil microbial communities may be different and provide

While knowledge theorists urge attention to knowing in practice, two common habits in the empirical literature, which we call knowledge inherency and skepticism, function to re-center certain practitioners. The sites in which we study knowing thereby remain limited, hindering a fuller practice turn. We argue that this enduring tendency is problematic because it inhibits our understanding of ‘commu

Digital human modelling (DHM) is commonly utilised for vehicle and workplace design in the automotive industry. More rarely are the tools applied in the health care industry, albeit having similar objectives for cost-efficiency and User-centred design processes. The paper illustrates how a DHM tool is modified and utilised to evaluate a bathing system design from caretakers' and caregivers' ergono

Background: Teachers are at high risk of stress-related disorders. This study aimed to examine the occurrence of burnout in a sample of Swedish school-teachers, to test a combined measure of three burnout dimensions on the individual level, to characterize associations between burnout and factors encountered during work and leisure time, and to explore any differences between the genders. Methods:

Aim To describe nurses' perceptions of conditions for patient education, focusing on organisational, environmental and professional cooperation aspects, and to determine any differences between primary, municipal and hospital care. Background Although patient education is an important part of daily nursing practice, the conditions for this work are unclear and require clarification. Method A strat

Two reactors, initially operated at 14 and 23 +/- 1 degrees C (RA and RB, respectively), were inoculated with a bacterial consortium enriched and acclimatized to the respective temperatures over 4 months. The biofilms, formed in the reactors, were studied using scanning electron microscopy, cultivation of the biofilm microflora, and physiological analysis of the isolates. Two bacteria able to mine

Clinical observation suggested to us that aphasia recovers relatively better than other deficits early after intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (IV-rtPA) treatment in stroke patients with minor deficits, while the reverse seemed the case in those with severe deficits. Retrospective analysis of acute ischemic stroke patients with aphasia admitted within 3hours from symptom onset a

Background: The clinical management of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) often involves a complex assessment of the extent and severity of changes in left ventricular (LV) myocardial perfusion, function and viability. We aimed to explore the feasibility of integrative quantitative representation of LV perfusion, function and viability in adjacent polar plots. In order to assess the clini

The feeling of being unsafe in the city creates restrictions in many people's lives. The urban environment has an impact on the perception of safety and the municipality can through their work with the urban design affect the safety. This thesis analyzes a form of citizen participation in urban development, called safety walks. The aim of the study is to examine in which ways safety walks may

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka i vilken utsträckning (fiktiva) rekryterare på grund av en arbetssökandes fysiska attraktivitet – här ansiktsattraktivitet – justerar sin bedömning och värdering av den arbetssökandes meriter så att specifika meriter hos en attraktiv arbetssökande uppvärderas för att motivera och rättfärdiga att just den personen väljs för anställning. I studien undersökteThe purpose of this study was to examine to what extent (fictitious) recruiters on the basis of a job applicant’s physical attractiveness—that is facial attractiveness—would adjust his/her assessment and evaluation of the job applicant’s merits so that specific merits of an attractive job applicant are upgraded in order to motivate and justify that that specific person is chosen for employment.

This thesis investigates the imbalances in the polycentric Region of Scania posed by the priorities made by infrastructural planning. Comparing the demographically and economically weaker southeastern municipalities of Scania with the much stronger growth poles located in southwest of the region. Further it looks at how the existing railway system contributes to cement a hegemonic structure within
