In Burkina Faso, the recent emergence of the “koglweogo” vigilante groups is often explained as a result of a “security vacuum.” This explanation, however, tends to depoliticize the power relations that underlie the phenomenon of vigilantism. In this article we analyze the justifications for the emergence and work of koglweogo groups and for the national policy of community-based policing that aim

Images of the North : An Analysis of Book Covers of Swedish Crime Fiction in Greek and Spanish Translation
Abstract in Spanish:Este estudio presenta un análisis de las cubiertas de una selección de novelas negras suecas, publicadas en Grecia y en el mundo hispanohablante durante el periodo de 2000-2017. Las imágenes de cubierta son importantes en el sistema paratextual (Genette, 1991); a partir de las teorías sobre el paratexto aplicadas al campo de los estudios de traducción, proponemos comparar las cThis study is an analysis of the book cover images of a selection of Swedish crime literature, published in Greece and the Spanish-speaking world in the period of 2000-2017. Covers are crucial to the paratextual signal system (Genette, 1991); departing from theories on paratext within translation studies, we aim to compare the original book covers to the covers of the translated volumes. Do the Gr

Contraception use and attitudes : women’s concerns regarding hormonal contraception and copper intrauterine devices
Objective: To estimate the prevalence of contraceptive method use among women, assess concerns about hormonal contraception (HC) and copper intrauterine device (Cu-IUD) and determine characteristics associated with concerns of HC and Cu-IUD. Method: Cross-sectional study. Swedish speaking women (n = 212) aged 16–50 attending midwives at four outpatient clinics in two of Sweden’s larger cities answ
The Contribution of Iron Oxides to theWet-Rail Phenomenon
This paper reviews the current literature regarding iron oxide formation in the wheel-rail contact in order to assess the possible role of iron oxides in the “Wet-Rail” phenomenon, which causes low adhesion between the wheel and the rail. The paper discusses the structure and formation of oxides from a chemical perspective before analysing the direct tribological effects and outlining the techniqu
Ombordmätningar av luftburna partiklar i X60 samt på citybanans plattformar
SyfteMålsättningen med denna studie var dels att säkerställa att tågpersonalen inte utsätts för höga halter av partiklar i sitt arbete på X60B fordon som trafikerar Arlanda. Syftet var även att ta fram ett förhållande mellan partikelnivåerna i tunnelmiljö och ombord på pendeltågsfordon av typ X60B i förarhytterna för att avgöra ventilationsfiltrets kapacitet. Kunskapen om filtreringseffektiviteten
Gender gap in journal submissions and peer review during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic : A study on 2329 Elsevier journals
During the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an unusually high submission rate of scholarly articles. Given that most academics were forced to work from home, the competing demands for familial duties may have penalized the scientific productivity of women. To test this hypothesis, we looked at submitted manuscripts and peer review activities for all Elsevier journals between Februa
Parkinson's Disease with Device, Diary, or in Disguise. Dyskinesia reduction, motor state evaluation, and workforce participation among persons with Parkinson's disease.
INTRODUCTION: In the wait for disease-modifying treatment for Parkinson’s disease (PD), efforts towards improved symptom control and reduced negative effects of PD can result in meaningful change patients. The general efficacy of levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG) in advanced PD has been established, but its effects on dyskinesia need more investigation. The PD Home Diary has been used in cl
Railway Open System Tribology
Tribology in the railway system is of increasing interest in the new railway era due to the demand for higher speed and load capacity. Since railway vehicles operate in an open environment, their performance depends greatly on temperature, humidity and natural and artificial contaminants. Meanwhile, the “feedback” of railway vehicles to the surroundings, such as noise and airborne particles, is of

Hip arthroplasty for acute hip fracture in patients with neurological disorders : A report Of 9,702 cases from the Swedish arthroplasty register
Introduction: The purpose of this study was to investigate neurological disorder as a risk factor for dislocation following arthroplasty for acute hip fractures. We also analysed medical and surgical adverse events (AE), readmission, reoperation, revision, and mortality as secondary outcomes. Methods: A longitudinal cohort study using prospectively collected and aggregated data from the Swedish Hi
Shear strain and inflammation-induced fixed charge density loss in the knee joint cartilage following ACL injury and reconstruction : A computational study
Excessive tissue deformation near cartilage lesions and acute inflammation within the knee joint after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture and reconstruction surgery accelerate the loss of fixed charge density (FCD) and subsequent cartilage tissue degeneration. Here, we show how biomechanical and biochemical degradation pathways can predict FCD loss using a patient-specific finite element mod
