In search of environmental risk factors for obsessive-compulsive disorder : study protocol for the OCDTWIN project
Background: The causes of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) remain unknown. Gene-searching efforts are well underway, but the identification of environmental risk factors is at least as important and should be a priority because some of them may be amenable to prevention or early intervention strategies. Genetically informative studies, particularly those employing the discordant monozygotic (MZ

Assessing the potential of a membrane bioreactor and granular activated carbon process for wastewater reuse – A full-scale WWTP operated over one year in Scania, Sweden
A full-scale membrane bioreactor (MBR) with ultrafiltration, followed by granular activated carbon (GAC), was examined to determine the potential of reusing treated water as a source of drinking water or for irrigation. The major part of the bacteria removal took place in the MBR, whereas the GAC removed substantial amounts of organic micropollutants. Annual variations in inflow and infiltration r

The modified Glasgow Prognostic Score indicates an increased risk of anastomotic leakage after anterior resection for rectal cancer
Background: Preoperative inflammation might cause and also be a marker for anastomotic leakage after anterior resection for rectal cancer. Available biomarker indices such as the modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) or the C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR) may be clinically useful for leakage assessment. Methods: Patients who underwent anterior resection for rectal cancer during 2014–2
Bioremediation by MFC technology
As the world gears up for the Net Zero carbon emissions, demand for raw materials is set to skyrocket as they are key elements of global economy and they have essential roles in improvement of life quality and the performance of manufacturing productivity. The various conventional treatment methods, including physical, chemical, and biological processes, may become outdated and may generally be re
The Road Ahead for the European Union : Between Federal Union and Flexible Integration
The sixth volume in the Interdisciplinary European Studies assesses the changes that are taking place in the EU’s policies, institutions, and political structures. On the eve of a new chapter of European integration in the dark shadow of the war in Ukraine, it is high time to assess the changes that have taken place in recent time and consider whether current developments are taking the EU on the
SSGIs in Sweden : With a Special Emphasis on Education
Sweden has a long tradition of being a welfare state with local authorities both having the responsibility for the provision of public services and being the ones delivering the services. This has changed the last decades and today public services performed by private entrepreneurs. These entrepreneurs are usually chosen within the public procurement regime, but they can also—especially when it co
Virtual reality : en revolution i arbetslivet?
I artikeln presenterar en tvärvetenskaplig forskargrupp vid Designvetenskaper, LTH, Lunds universitet sin forskning som syftar till att öka förståelsen för hur VR-tekniken kan tillämpas i arbetslivet inom tre områden. Det första är hur den kan användas för att förbättra interaktion och samverkan vid distansarbete. Den andra frågan är hur det ser ut när det gäller arbetsplatsbaserade tränings- och

Inflammatory rheumatic diseases and the risk of drug use disorders: a register-based cohort study in Sweden
To investigate the association between chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases (CIRD) and drug use disorder (DUD). Individuals aged ≥ 30 years in 2009 that met the following conditions were included: residing in the Skåne region, Sweden, with at least one healthcare contact in person and no history of DUD (ICD-10 codes F11-F16, F18-F19) during 1998–2009 (N = 649,891). CIRD was defined as the prese
A calcium sulphate/hydroxyapatite ceramic biomaterial carrier for local delivery of tobramycin in bone infections : Analysis of rheology, drug release and antimicrobial efficacy
Local targeted treatment of bone and joint infections using antibiotic-containing carriers is a common practice today. A recently FDA approved biphasic calcium sulphate/hydroxyapatite (CaS/HA) carrier containing gentamicin has been reported to give a sustained drug release, highly effective in eradicating bone infections. We present the first study evaluating the widely used aminoglycoside tobramy
Developing a complex vocational rehabilitation intervention for patients with inflammatory arthritis : the WORK-ON study
Background: People with inflammatory arthritis often experience challenges at work and balancing paid work and energy in everyday life. Low work ability is common, and people with inflammatory arthritis face high risks of losing their jobs and permanent exclusion from the labour market. Context-specific tailored rehabilitation targeting persons with inflammatory arthritis is limited. The aim of th
Adjusting to international standards: Has Sweden learned from the European Charter of Self-Government?
Following Swedish ratification of the European Charter of Local Self-Government in 1989, a number of further reforms of Sweden’s system of local government have taken place. Based on premises derived from institutional theory, this article examines the extent to which these reforms can be seen as further adjustments to the Charter. Analyses of monitoring reports and policy documents indicate that
Management and outcomes of firearm-related vascular injuries
Background: Violence due to firearms is a major global public health issue and vascular injuries from firearms are particularly lethal. The aim of this study was to analyse population-based epidemiology of firearm-related vascular injuries. Methods: This was a retrospective nationwide epidemiological study including all patients with firearm injuries from the national Swedish Trauma Registry (SweT
Probing the Néel-Type Antiferromagnetic Order and Coherent Magnon–Exciton Coupling in Van Der Waals VPS3
2D van der Waals (vdW) antiferromagnets have received intensive attention due to their terahertz resonance, multilevel magnetic-order states, and ultrafast spin dynamics. However, accurately identifying their magnetic configuration still remains a challenge owing to the lack of net magnetization and insensitivity to external fields. In this work, the Néel-type antiferromagnetic (AFM) order in 2D a
Molecular Mobility in Keratin-Rich Materials Monitored by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance : A Tool for the Evaluation of Structure-Giving Properties
Keratins are structural proteins that are abundant in human skin, nails, and hair, where they provide mechanical strength. In the present study, we investigate the molecular mobilities and structures of three keratin-rich materials with clearly different mechanical properties: nails, stratum corneum (upper layer of epidermis), and keratinocytes (from lower layer of epidermis). We use solid-state N
The first comprehensive population size estimations for the highly endangered largest diving beetle Dytiscus latissimus in Europe
Dytiscus latissimus (Coleoptera Dytiscidae) is an endangered diving beetle throughout its range. It is one of the two species of Dytiscidae listed in Annex II of the Habitats Directive, IUCN red list and in many national level legislations and therefore strictly protected. The conservation of endangered species first of all requires an assessment of their population size. Until now, a method has n
