Hur väl fungerar egentligen sjukvården? Ett vanligt sätt att svara på den frågan är att mätaproduktivitet – alltså hur mycket vård som produceras i förhållande till de resurser somanvänds. I dag bygger den officiella statistiken i Sverige främst på att räkna antaletvårdkontakter, behandlingar och vårdtillfällen, justerat för vad de kostar. Det ger en bildav hur mycket vård som utförs, men säger be
Skjutningarna i Sverige minskar kraftigt. Vad har hänt? Vi har inte besegrat gängbrottsligheten, och svaren finns heller inte i socioekonomin. Det som rent faktiskt har skett är att en lång rad repressiva åtgärder har införts. Exakt vilka som gav effekt är för tidigt att säga, men klart är att något har ändrats, skriver Ardavan M Khoshnood, docent i akutsjukvård.Shootings in Sweden are falling sharply. What has happened? We have not defeated gang crime, nor can the answers be found in socioeconomic factors. What has in fact happened is that a long series of repressive measures has been introduced. It is still too early to say exactly which of them had an effect, but one thing is clear: something has changed, writes Ardavan M. Khoshnood, Associate Professo
Wild bees and hoverflies are key pollinators, but their populations are declining in Europe. As the monitoring of each species would be arduous to implement, a cost-effective solution could be a shift from species level monitoring to an evaluation of the trends of functional groups. However, the lack of centralized trait databases hampers progress, as data are often dispersed across literature, li
ObjectiveCritically ill patients with septic shock frequently exhibit variability in antibiotic pharmacokinetics. We aimed to investigate the antibiotic concentration and time over minimum inhibitory concentration in patients with septic shock treated with prolonged and intermittent infusions.MethodsWe performed a post hoc analysis of a prospective study of patients with septic shock admitted to t
This study examines how and why Paul uses the figure of Moses in his letters. It situates Paul within the context of early Jewish biblical interpretation, a context conceptualized as a “cultural conversation.” Within this context, the figure of Moses was interpreted, invoked, and contested in diverse ways. Against this background, this study argues that Paul primarily uses the figure of Moses to l
Antihypertensive treatment (AHT) has been associated with adverse psychiatric reactions (APRs), but existing data are conflicting. The aim of the present study was to determine the risk for seven different APRs in drug-naive patients with newly diagnosed hypertension in primary health care. This cohort study analyzed registry data of individuals aged 40–70 with a newly diagnosed untreated hyperten
This audio paper examines how sonic solidarity is formed within a separatist community of women who have undergone fertility treatment, as explored through the project Listening Choir (2024–2025). Through monthly gatherings, participants come together to share experiences of hope, disappointment, shame, desperation, anger, and grief. The choir’s listening practice is grounded in feminist thought (

Under the debt overhang problem, firms approaching distress issue too little equity because new capital primarily benefits creditors. We identify an additional mechanism—control overhang—that further suppresses equity issuance for firms with controlling owners. As distress risk rises, equity issuance discounts steepen, and each unit of capital raised requires greater ownership dilution. Controllin
Individual and family characteristics are important determinants of partner selection byeducation, but social environments during upbringing, such as neighborhoods, also shapepreferences and behavior with long-term consequences. This study examines how educationallevel in the neighborhood of upbringing relates to having a university-educated partner. Usingfull-count register data and logistic regr
Institutionen för personer med funktionsnedsättningar i Demir Kapija, Makedonien, har länge representerat ett omsorgssystem präglat av isolering. Trots flera års avinstitutionalisering bor fortfarande omkring 60 personer kvar, många med omfattande kognitiva och fysiska funktionsnedsättningar. Detta examensarbete undersöker hur ett småskaligt gruppboende i Bitola kan utformas som ett hem snarare ä
Urinary tract infections are among the most common bacterial infections worldwide and require rapid and accurate diagnosis to ensure appropriate treatment. Conventional urine culture methods remain the gold standard in the diagnosis of a UTI but require 1-5 days to produce a result and delays specific antibiotic treatment. This thesis investigates the feasibility of using acoustofluidics as a high
With a growing global population, the demand for food increases, and the development of more sustainable food production becomes increasingly important. One way to improve sustainability within food production is to repurpose nutritious by-products to new food ingredients. Oat drink by-product (ODBP), generated during the production of oat-based beverages, is one such stream. ODBP contains signifi

This bachelor’s thesis examines how game development professionals describe the processes and conditions that shape digital game system design. Drawing on previous research on game systems, professional game design practice, and socio-technical perspectives, the study explores how design decisions are approached in professional development settings. The study uses a qualitative, abductive approach
This thesis examines the relationship between age at marriage, fertility, and contraceptive use among married women in Bangladesh, using the cross-sectional 2022 Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey (BDHS). Applying linear and logistic regression models, controlling for education, wealth, residence, region, and age, the findings reveal that later age at marriage is associated with lower fertil
