Majoriteten av iranierna i Sverige reser ofta till Iran, vilket gör att de enkelt är måltavlor för den islamiska regimen som kan använda sig av dem för att samla in information om andra iranier i Sverige, skriver Ardavan Khoshnood.The majority of Iranians in Sweden often travel to Iran, making them easy targets for the Islamic regime which can use them to gather information about other Iranians in Sweden, writes Ardavan Khoshnood.

Emergency physician Ardavan Khoshnood reacts strongly to Lorentz Tovatts (MP) statement that there are reasons for adults not to use bicycle helmets.

Jag vill gärna avsluta med att citera psykiatrikern David Eberhard som i sin bok ”Det stora könsexperimentet" förklarar problemet med klagomålen kring Hesslow mycket väl: ”I dagens genusteoretiska värld tycks inte ens biologi existera. Man har helt enkelt valt bort den”.A debate article on the discussions at Lund University regarding Professor Germund Hesslow and his lecture regarding sexuality.

The unemployed in Sweden today have to relate to several types of benefit schemes. Apart from the public unemployment insurance program, different workplaces are covered by different complementary benefit arrangements regulated by collective agreements between employer and union organizations. These Employment Transitional Agreements have existed since the 1970s but have expanded further in scope

This paper examines whether and, if so, why source country heterogeneity exists in foreign direct investment. Using detailed Swedish matched employer-employee data for the period from 1996 to 2009, we find statistical evidence that affiliate performance differs systematically across source countries. We then show that differences in foreign multinational enterprises’ global management practices (e

he traditional Swedish monocentric and uniform legal model is challenged by an increasingly diverse contemporary legal situation associated with the development of a multicultural and pluralistic society. How Swedish criminal courts handle this in terms of understanding and framing minority legal culture is addressed by looking into what role is given to this culture in the courts’ construction of

Resistivity measurements in marine environments have already been tested in Norwegian landscapes in in the detection of subsea fracture zones (Lile et al. 1994; Dalsegg, 2012). Yet, most of the produced data have been processed without taking into account the special conditions created by the presence of seawater. Similar studies outside of Norway (Tsourlos et al., 2001; Satriani et al., 2011; Ruc

Aims To determine whether supplemental oxygen in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) impacts on procedure-related and clinical outcomes. Methods and results The DETermination of the role of Oxygen in suspected Acute Myocardial Infarction (DETO2X-AMI) trial randomized patients with suspected myocardial infarction (MI) to receive oxygen at 6 L/min for 6-12 h or ambient air. In t

This article is an ethnographic study of spagyric alchemical practice, sometimes referred to by my informants as “the wet path,” which is centred on the making of elixirs. This article begins with an ethnographic vignette of how alchemy was taught in a group setting and then describes how the author became an alchemist’s apprentice during the course of an evening. Analytical perspectives on this e

There are many projects in Mozambique for poverty reduction. One of these projects is funded by Millennium Challenge Account (MCA) and is aimed to install a total of 600 rural water points in the province of Nampula and Cabo Delgado in crystalline rock zone. Each water point consists of a drilled well, a water pump and a communal washing basin. Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) was used for asses

Street art is a ubiquitous visual landmark in contemporary George Town, the capital city of Penang state in Malaysia. Both private commissioned and state-sanctioned types of street art are the new significant cultural identification of this World Heritage Site city as inscribed by UNESCO in 2008. Street art in this multicultural city becomes the articulated media that deals with the notion of cult

For a long time, the predominant method for detection of quick clay in Sweden has been to take undisturbed samples and to perform fall-cone tests on the clay in its undisturbed and remoulded state. In connection with a large stability investigation covering both sides of the Gota River, from the lake Vanern to the city of Gothenburg, the usefulness of CPTu and static pressure sounding for mapping

The work presented concerns validation of a specific analytical model for Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) at in-plane beam loading conditions. The original model (model A) has previously been presented in the literature and is also suggested to be used as a basis for design equations for the next version of Eurocode 5. An improved version (model B) of that original model (model A), regarding basic as

Tests were done measuring resistivity and time domain induced polarisation using standard multi-core cable spreads and a special layout with separate cable spreads for transmitting current and measuring potentials. For both types of cables spreads both normal and reciprocal measurements were done in order to estimate the measurement errors. The tests were done on a former landfill in Lund in Swede

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and its determinants in a systemic sclerosis (SSc) multinational inception cohort. We performed a meta-analysis of data from individual countries, and compared the meta-analysis to individual country results by pooling data from each of the countries.METHODS: SSc patients within 2 years of disease onset were recruited from 5 countries

Academic training, where senior scientists transfer their knowledge and skills to junior scientists through apprenticeship, plays a crucial role in the development of scientists. This study focuses on two aspects of academic training, autonomy and exploration, to investigate how different modes of training are incentivized and how they affect junior scientists’ performance and career prospects. Dr

METHODS: A cross-sectional analysis of the prospective EULAR Scleroderma Trial and Research database (EUSTAR) was performed. Patients fulfilling preliminary ACR 1980 classification criteria for SSc, with less than 3 years from the first non-Raynaud's symptom at first entry, were selected. A group of patients with less than 3 years from the first SSc symptom, including Raynaud's phenomenon, was als
