OBJECTIVES: To evaluate whether suicidality was documented prior to suicide in patients in contact with specialised somatic healthcare providers for physical conditions and to identify factors related to such documentation.DESIGN AND SETTINGS: Retrospective cohort study in which medical records from specialised somatic (non-psychiatric) healthcare services (internal medicine, infectious disease, s

The interaction between water and land greatly affected the change of the riparian ecosystem service value (ESV) under the background of rapid regional development. In order to analyze the change of ESV, this study combined the Logarithmic Mean Divisia Index (LMDI) and the P (pressure)-S (state)-R (response) framework to exploring its driving factors based on the ESV accounting method improved by

The standard of proof at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) is a central, yet underexplored, aspect of its judicial decision-making. Although central in shaping both fact-establishment and judicial outcomes, the articulation and application of the standard of proof by the Court are marked by inconsistency and a lack of transparent justification. This inconsistency is often linked to an assum

Human adenovirus (HAdV) type F41 has been identified as a possible cause of the non-A-to-E hepatitis outbreak. This study uses wastewater monitoring to track HAdV F40 and F41, supporting clinical investigations and providing insights into the pathogen's role in the outbreak. Given the limited clinical monitoring in Sweden of HAdV-F40/41, this approach also helps estimate the true infection burden

BACKGROUND: Early-life exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) may impact the developing lungs and immune system and increase the risk of childhood asthma, but no studies have been conducted in a high-exposed population. The objective of this study was to estimate associations between prenatal PFAS exposure and childhood incidence of asthma and wheeze in Blekinge County, Sweden, whe

Background and aims: We examined whether the excess cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk among adults with steatotic liver disease (SLD) subtypes could be reduced or eliminated through joint control of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP). Methods and results: This prospective cohort study included 291,995 participants f

Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is invariably fatal but there are large variations in the rate of progression. The lack of predictability can make it difficult to plan clinical interventions. This includes the requirement for gastrostomy where early or late placement can adversely impact quality of life and survival. Methods: We designed a model to predict the timing of gastrostomy

Bygg- och fastighetsbranschen är en av EU:s största konsumenter av naturresurser och producenter av avfall vilket gör en skyndsam omställning till ett mer cirkulärt byggande högst nödvändig. För att lyckas krävs en grundläggande förändring av produkt- och materialflöden i branschen, med fokus på att förebygga avfall, minska uttaget av naturresurser och förlänga produkters livslängd.Återbruk av bygThe construction industry remains one of the largest contributors to resource consumption and waste generation in the EU, making the transition to circular construction both urgent and essential. However, the transition towards a circular construction and real estate industry requires a fundamental shift in material flows, prioritising waste prevention, reducing extraction of natural resources, an

As decolonization transformed world geopolitics, various Eastern Europeanauthoritarian ultranationalist groups sought to instrumentalize anti-imperialism in their attempts to launch a violent overthrow of the socialist regimes of the Soviet bloc. As the USSR underwent a transformation from the radical anti-imperialism of the 1920s to certain imperial attributes following the announcement of the Br

A central assumption of theories of the ecology and evolution of immunological defence is that defence has not only benefits (in the form of resistance against parasites), but also costs. The aim of my studies was to investigate the nature and magnitude of costs of the vertebrate immune system, and to examine some of the consequences of these costs. First, I investigated the energetic cost of the

Lithostratigraphy and chronostratigraphy of samples from 18 deep boreholes in Vendsyssel have resulted in new insight into the Late Weichselian glaciation history of northern Denmark. Prior to the Late Weichselian Main advance c. 23-21 kyr BP, Vendsyssel was part of an ice-dammed lake where the Ribjerg Formation was deposited c. 27-23 kyr BP. The timing of the Late Weichselian deglaciation is well

BACKGROUND: It is widely accepted that DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) and their misrepair in stem cells are critical events in the multistage origination-of various leukemias and tumors, including gliomas. OBJECTIVES: We studied whether microwaves from mobile telephones of the Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) and the Universal Global Telecommunications System (UMTS) induce DSBs or aff

This article focuses upon 28 Swedish foster parents and their experience of working in a manual-based treatment program - Multidimensional Treatment Foster Care (MTFC) - focusing on treating troubled youth. Using interviews and questionnaires, the study addresses how foster parents perceive the components and core terms specific to MTFC. Both quantitative and qualitative analyses were conducted. I

The double helicity asymmetry in neutral pion production for p(T) = 1 to 12 GeV/c was measured with the PHENIX experiment to access the gluon-spin contribution, Delta G, to the proton spin. Measured asymmetries are consistent with zero, and at a theory scale of mu 2 = 4 GeV2 a next to leading order QCD analysis gives Delta G([0.02,0.3]) = 0.2, with a constraint of -0.7 < Delta G([0.02,0.3]) < 0.5
