Introduction/Objectives: The meta-analytical prevalence of paternal postnatal depression (PPND) is 8.4% (Cameron et al., 2016). However, measures for PPND are scarce and the commonly used Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) has low sensitivity, as many men express depression with somatization and/or externalizing symptoms. Recent studies show higher prevalences, indicating that affected me

Although adenoviruses (AdVs) possess advantageous features as vectors, several challenges remain. These include a high prevalence of neutralizing antibodies against certain AdV types and the inability to efficiently transduce CAR-deficient cells and tissues. We showed previously that lactoferricin (Lfcin) enhances CAR-independent HAdV-C5 infection of epithelial and T-cells. Here, we assessed the a

This thesis explores how contemporary Swedish Jews narrate their experiences of antisemitism. A central aim is to examine if and how the narrative norm of the cultural Holocaust memory – as formulated by Zoe Waxman – is reflected in present-day narratives of antisemitism. To make possible, the study employs a narrative discourse analysis. The findings suggest that the narrative norm of cultural Ho

The article analyses the climate policy of the German Trade Union Federation over the last 30 years. It defines a new form of eco social partnership unionism where unions use existing institutions to adapt to the challenges of climate change without embarking on more transformative avenues questioning the status quo. We show that unions climate policy has been subject to little change over the pas

Aim: This paper aims to describe what constitutes good-quality, accessible, affordable and acceptable primary care for migrants. This includes identifying system adaptations and offering evidence- and practice-based recommendations and guidance for primary care organizations and professionals on how to deliver such care.Background: Migration has significantly diversified European populations. Migr

The neoliberal turn in the cultural and creative industries has led to two distinct bodies of work. Global North scholars focus on the tension between the emphasis on the creative industries as an engine of growth and the unequal access to the means of cultural production and consumption that neoliberalism presents. Global South scholars face a different reality; the increasing inability of govern

Acute hemorrhage is a leading cause of death in trauma, and women are more susceptible to hypovolemic circulatory stress than men. The mechanisms underlying the susceptibility are not clear, however. The aim of the present study was to examine the compensatory mechanisms to defend central blood volume during experimental hypovolemia in women and men. Twenty-two women (23.1 +/- 0.4 yr) and 16 men (

In the present study the time-course of DNA fragmentation following insulin-induced hypoglycemia was examined. In situ localization of DNA breaks were studied by the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated biotin- deoxyuridine triphosphate nick-end labelling method, and the temporal profile of DNA-fragmentation by agarose gel electrophoresis. Cell nuclei displayed terminal deoxynucleotidyl

The way organ transplant recipients depend on social interactions to develop and experience social health and well-being is similar to that of the general population. A transplant may result in a close to full recovery of health status, but the physical and social problems can persist in some patients. The focus on improving the recipients’ social participation has therefore become an important is

OBJECTIVE: To test a simplified blood pressure device called Rastreometro that could be used by the Health Agents.METHODS: The Rastreometro has been developed from an ordinary aneroid sphygmomanometer, in which the numeric display is covered by an adhesive with a red zone, indicating pressures equal or above 140 mmHg and a yellow zone indicating pressures below 140 mmHg. The onset of oscillations

The effect of panretinal laser scatter treatment on visual fields, visual acuity and subjective complaints was assessed in 11 patients with severe nonproliferative or early proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Patients were prospectively examined before and after panretinal treatment using automated static threshold perimetry with program 30-2 on the Humphrey perimeter, and they were interviewed. V

During spring and autumn, many lakes in temperate latitudes experience intensive convective mixing in the vertical, which leads to almost isothermal conditions with depth. Thus the regime of turbulence appears to be similar with that characteristic of convective boundary layers in the atmosphere. In the present paper a simple analytical approach, based on boundary-layer theory, is applied to conve

Individual transferable quota (ITQ) is a management measure that is widely discussed, not least in the reform of the European Common Fisheries Policy. While the system is expected to reduce overcapacity and improve economic performance, questions are raised concerning the future of small-scale fisheries. This paper uses a model for Swedish fisheries (the Swedish Resource Rent Model for the Commerc

Biogas production in anaerobic digestion in farm-scale units is typically performed under mesophilic conditions when used for producing domestic fuel and stabilizing animal waste for the use of digested manure as a fertilizer. Previous studies on the digestion of llama and cow manure have shown the feasibility of producing biogas under altiplano conditions (low pressure and low temperature) and of

Pulmonary delivery of pharmaceutical aerosols can be quantified using gamma scintigraphy. Technetium-99m, the most commonly used radionuclide in scintigraphic studies, cannot be incorporated into the drug molecule and, therefore, may be distributed differently from the drug itself, particularly if the drug is presented as a solid in a liquid suspension or as a dry powder formulation. This study de
