UppdragArbetet med kunskapssammanställningen definierades av Myndigheten förarbetsmiljökunskap till att omfatta den psykosociala arbetsmiljöns inverkanpå den seniora arbetskraften1 i en svensk kontext, det vill säga effekten påindividen utifrån den mentala arbetsmiljö och den arbetssociala miljö somhen befinner sig i. Dock samvarierar olika faktorer i individers arbetssitua-tion. För att fånga in

Recombinant protein-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccines are needed to fill the vaccine equity gap. Because protein-subunit based vaccines are easier and cheaper to produce and do not require special storage/transportation conditions, they are suitable for low-/middle-income countries. Here, we report our vaccine development studies with the receptor binding domain of the SARS-CoV-2 Delta Plus strain (RBD-DP

Dihydropyrimidinase (DHPase) is a key enzyme in the pyrimidine pathway, the catabolic route for synthesis of β-amino acids. It catalyses the reversible conversion of 5,6-dihydrouracil (DHU) or 5,6-dihydrothymine (DHT) to the corresponding N-carbamoyl-β-amino acids. This enzyme has the potential to be used as a tool in the production of β-amino acids. Here, the reaction mechanism and origin of ster

BACKGROUND: Public health policies and healthcare quality play a pivotal role on the health outcome level and disparities across sociodemographic groups. However, there is little evidence on their role on disparities in life expectancy (LE) and life disparity (LD) in low and middle income countries. The present study aimed to assess the contributions of avoidable mortality, as a measure of inter-s

The state-of-the-art in development tools today provides users with a large number of both syntactic and semantic services, such as syntax highlighting, name completions and refactorings. Preferably, every language should have sophisticated tool support, but unfortunately, the manual task of tool development is both time-consuming and error-prone, making it too costly for small language communitie

Background: There is limited evidence regarding the provision of home-based postnatal care, resulting in a weak evidence-base for policy formulation and the further development of home-based postnatal care services. Aim: To explore the structure and organisation of public hospital home-based postnatal care in Victoria, Australia. Methods: An online survey including mostly closed-ended questions wa

In 2003 Newmont has signed an investment agreement with the government of Ghana that resulted in the inauguration in 2006 of the large, gold-producing project at Ahafo. The challenge for Newmont has been to resolve the initial conflict resulting from a land dispossession that brought communities close to famine and address the lingering tensions by working towards sustainable solutions. This artic

Tape-lifting has since its introduction in the early 2000′s become a well-established sampling method in forensic DNA analysis. Sampling is quick and straightforward while the following DNA extraction is more challenging due to the “stickiness”, rigidity and size of the tape. We have developed, validated and implemented a simple and efficient direct lysis DNA extraction protocol for adhesive tapes

We report a solid smectic phase that exhibits dodecagonal global order. It is composed of axially stacked hexagonally ordered particle layers, and its 12-fold rotational symmetry induced by the 30° rotation of adjacent layers with respect to each other. A quasicrystal was produced in a molecular-dynamics simulation of a single-component system of particles interacting via a spherically-symmetric p

Objective: High fractions of inspired oxygen (FIO2) used in acute lung injury (ALI) may promote resorption atelectasis. The impact of derecruitment related to high FIO2 in ALI is debated. We evaluated derecruitment with 100% vs. 60% FIO2 at two levels of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). Patients: Fourteen consecutive patients with ALI were studied. Interventions: Recruited volume at two PE

Research in avian blood parasites has seen a remarkable increase since the introduction of polymerase chain reaction-based methods for parasite identification. New data are revealing complex multihost-multiparasite systems which are difficult to understand without good knowledge of the host range and geographical distribution of the parasite lineages. However, such information is currently difficu

The 40 in thick Untersberg section (Salzburg, Austria) of the Northern Calcareous Alps comprises the Palaeocene-Eocene transition and spans the upper part of calcareous nannoplankton zone NP9 and the lower part of zone NP10 (subzone NP10a). These zones are equivalent to planktonic foraminifera zone P5 and the lower part of zone P6 (sub-zone P6a). The succession was deposited in a lower bathyal slo

Background Estimation of skin diseases in the community is challenging because we do not easily have access to the nonhealthcare-seeking population. A potential tool is a questionnaire asking for self-reported skin complaints. Such an instrument has not yet been developed. Objectives To validate a simple instrument assessing skin morbidity in the general adult population, to predict clinical skin

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hjärtats skrifter är en undersökning av brevet som kommunikationsform under 1700-talet. Brevkulturen i 1700-talets Tyskland betraktas som ett av startskotten för vad som brukar kallas den moderna tiden. I denna studie granskas brevkulturens funktion och betydelse för det epistemiska skifte som äger rum under senare hälften av 1700-talet. Undersökningens utgångspunkt ärThis dissertation examines the correspondence of the 18th-century German authors Anna Louisa Karsch and Johann Wilhelm Ludwig Gleim. The main emphasis of the present study is to demonstrate how readings of Karsch's and Gleim's correspondence shed light on epistolary culture. Particular attention is paid to the notion of epistolary culture as a relatively unrestrained ?experimental setting? for bou

The study aimed to find out the influence of sweating on footwear insulation with a thermal foot model. Simultaneously, the influence of applied weight (35 kg), sock and steel toe cap were studied. Water to 3 sweat glands was supplied with a pump at the rate of 10 g/h in total. Four models of boots with steel toe caps were tested. The same models were manufactured also without steel toe. Sweating

Popular Abstract in Swedish Elektrolyter är ämnen som sönderdelas i ett lösningsmedel och därvid ger upphov till positivt och negativt laddade joner. De starka elektrostatiska krafter i lösningen som detta i sin tur orsakar är typiska för elektrolytlösningar. Redan vid små tillsatser av en elektrolyt till ett lösningsmedel kan lösningens egenskaper förändras kraftigt. Lösningar av elektrolyter speA thermodynamic model for electrolyte solutions has been derived for binary and multicomponent solutions up to very high molalities. The model was extensively tested on 163 binary aqueous electrolyte systems up to very high molalities, and the results show that the model represents mean ionic activity coefficients and osmotic coefficients very accurately. The model parameters vary significantly be

This paper presents a novel method for the analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) during exercise stress testing enhanced with respiratory information. The instantaneous frequency and power of the low frequency (LF) and high frequency (HF) bands of the HRV are estimated by parametric decomposition of the instantaneous autocorrelation function (ACF) as a sum of damped sinusoids. The instantaneous

Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur tvångsvård av alkoholmissbrukare upplevs av den som döms till det. Majoriteten av dessa personer är negativa till tvångsvård. I studien har också tagits hänsyn till att resultaten ses utifrån ett bredare perspektiv. Det som också undersökts är alkoholmissbruk generellt, varför klienterna dricker i den utsträckning de gör samThe aim of this study was to investigate how compulsary treatment of alcohol abuse is experienced by persons forced to submit to it, the majority of whom are negative in their attitude toward treatment of this sort. The importance of considering the resluts obtained not in isolation but within a larger context is emphasized. Among the elements of this context examined are alcohol abuse generally,
