Growing evidence shows that alcohol triggers paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) in some patients. How-ever, there is a lack of methods for assessing the causality between triggers and atrial fibrillation (AF) episodes. Accordingly, this work aims to develop an approach to episode modeling under the influence of alcohol for the purpose of evaluating causality assessment methods. The alternating,
This study investigates the use of mobile data to understand patterns of population movements and disease transmission during the Covid-19 outbreak. It also focuses on understanding the implications of using this data for individual privacy. Using a mixed methods approach, we present 10 rich qualitative interviews and 412 survey responses from participants across the Nordics. Our novel results sho
Plant proteins-based foods contribute a larger part of human diet and off-course the daily nutrients supply. Complete reliance on plants proteins sources like wheat are expected to anticipate detrimental effects in populations where such cereals are the staple crops and comprises a larger share of the total dietary energy supply. Beside the fact that a mixture of plant proteins derived from a vari
During eyeblink conditioning, Purkinje cells that control blinking develop an inhibitory response to the conditional stimulus. This conditional response (CR) in the Purkinje cell shows a number of striking similarities to the overt blink CR, including adaptive timing. The evidence suggests that the Purkinje cell CR drives the overt CR. Recent results show that the Purkinje cell CR does not depend
The world is currently facing a biodiversity and climate crisis which are globally interlinked. Nature-based solutions (NBS), defined as “actions to protect, sustainably manage, and restore natural and modified ecosystems that address societal challenges effectively and adaptively, simultaneously benefiting people and nature” is part of the solution to these challenges. Here we give a status overv
Background: Patients with acute respiratory failure caused by cardiogenic pulmonary edema (CPE) may require mechanical ventilation that can cause further lung damage. Our aim was to determine the impact of ventilatory settings on CPE mortality. Methods: Patients from the LUNG SAFE cohort, a multicenter prospective cohort study of patients undergoing mechanical ventilation, were studied. Relationsh
This chapter presents two case analyses, one situated in Sweden and the other in Poland, where attempts have been made to intervene in the existing laws regulating access to abortion. The first case involves the lawsuits filed by midwives in Sweden who claimed to have been discriminated against on the grounds of their religion when they had been turned down for work due to their objection to perfo
Develops the Black feminist concept of reproductive justice further in critical dialogue.Includes case studies and perspectives from Sweden, Nicaragua, Poland, Taiwan.Focuses on the historical and contemporary interplay between the state and the pro- abortion/anti-abortion movements.
Responsible internationalization has become an increasingly used term to promote relationship building in a world which is increasingly shaped by the growing impact of global challenges and geopolitical competition. Amidst these changing global conditions researchers and universities have started to learn that they need to adhere to an expanded set of norms related to the research endeavor. Today
PURPOSE: To analyze preoperative visual acuity before cataract surgery regarding the risk of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) after cataract surgery.METHODS: The preoperative visual acuity in an observational cohort study of patients undergoing cataract surgery in Skåne, southern Sweden, during 2015-2017 was analyzed with data retrieved from the Swedish National Cataract Register. This was
PURPOSE: Automated perimetry provides a standardized method of measuring the visual field. The Humphrey Field Analyser (HFA) uses the 24-2 test pattern to cover 24 degrees centrally or the 30-2 test pattern to cover a slightly broader region of 30 degrees. The aim of this study was to determine whether the 24-2 test pattern provides comparable information to the 30-2 test pattern in detecting visu
