BACKGROUND: This study sought to characterize a cohort of talar neck and body fractures, focusing on fracture characteristics, associated injuries, treatment and outcome.METHODS: We reviewed adult patients registered in the Swedish Fracture Register 2011-2021 with talar neck and body fractures. A minimum 2-year follow-up was conducted for treatment outcomes.RESULTS: We included 313 patients (318 f

Many scholars have claimed that the stone battle axes of the Battle Axe Culture were status objects with a social rather than a pratical function. One way of investigating this is to study the context in which the battle axes were manufactured, and by whom. If any object is to serve as a mark of status, it must be possible for someone who wishes to assert his/her superiority over other community m

Popular Abstract in Swedish Huvudsyftet med min avhandling är att visa hur klass konstruerades språkligt i Svensk Damtidning i början av 1900-talet. Teoretiskt efterlyser jag en förnyelse av studier av klass, och skriver därmed in mig i de post-marxistiska och feministiska traditionerna. Ett viktigt mål på vägen är också att klarlägga dampressens status som historisk källa, inte minst genom en anaThe aim of my thesis is to demonstrate how class was constructed linguistically in Svensk Damtidning (Swedish Woman's Magazine) at the beginning of the 20th century. Theoretically, I call for a renewal of studies of class, thus joining the traditions of post-marxism and feminism. Research into language and class, strongly coloured by modernism, suggests that from the 19th century onwards people i

The finite element method has been used to analyze three topologies of iron-powder electrically magnetized synchronous machines. The first topology has the field winding placed in magnetically conducting end-plates, eliminating the need of slip-rings. In the second topology this is achieved by placing the winding above the outer rotor, and the third topology corresponds to the more conventional de

The global anti-doping effort in sport is based upon perceptions of the system as desirable, proper and appropriate and thus considered legitimate. The legitimacy of the anti-doping system has earlier been studied bottom-up, based on the views of athletes. In order to gain greater understanding of legitimation processes, it is also important to study legitimation strategies top-down, used by decis

This thesis estimates the long-run impacts of a desert locust plague, which lasted from 1986 to 1989. It considers the effect of in utero exposure and during young ages for both men and women. The analysis is based on DHS surveys from the Sahel countries Senegal, Mali and Chad and data on locust infestations to derive the impact of the plague on adult education and height outcomes. The focus of th
