This paper explores the changing meanings and understandings of the concept of care in parenting support policies in Sweden since the 1990s. Caring responsibilities and practices has historically been framed and negotiated within general family policy reforms, comprising universal child allowances and generous parental leave schemes combined with publicly funded childcare, in turn closely related Åsa LundqvistProfessor in SociologyDepartment of SociologyLund UniversitySwedenAsa.Lundqvist@soc.lu.seAbstractCapable to Care?

The deposition of dust on snow accelerates melt by perturbing snow albedo, directly by darkening the snow surface and indirectly by enhancing snow grain growth. The snow darkening process impacts hydrology by shifting runoff timing and magnitude. Dust on snow deposition has been documented in the Wasatch Mountains, snowmelt from which accou

Objective: To explore the subjective experience of living with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Design A qualitative study of in-depth interviews using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Setting: A memory clinic in Malmö, southern Sweden. Participants: A purposive sample of five male participants with DLB between the ages of 78 and 88 years and disease duration of 1.5-7 years.

A new Grain stream cipher, denoted Grain-128AEAD is presented, with support for authenticated encryption with associated data. The cipher takes a 128-bit key and a 96-bit IV and produces a pseudo random sequence that is used for encryption and authentication of messages. The design is based on Grain-128a but introduces a few changes in order to increase the security and protect against recent cryp

Fungi have the capacity to cause devastating diseases of both plants and animals, causing significant harvest losses that threaten food security and human mycoses with high mortality rates. As a consequence, there is a critical need to promote development of new antifungal drugs, which requires a comprehensive molecular knowledge of fungal pathogenesis. In this review, we critically evaluate curreFungi have the capacity to cause devastating diseases of both plants and animals, causing significant harvest losses that threaten food security and human mycoses with high mortality rates.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether left atrial appendage outflow velocity alone or in relation to left atrial diameter is a superior predictor of sinus rhythm maintenance after cardioversion compared with traditional clinical or echocardiography parameters. DESIGN: Sixty-two patients with their first episode of atrial fibrillation were examined using echocardiography before DC-cardioversion. At one

Despite being such an important factor for individual identity, the Orthodox churches have not been sufficiently studied. In addition, the study of gender in these churches often seems formed by the impression that they do not change. This article therefore explores a seeming static feature, the gendered seating in three Syriac Orthodox parishes in Sweden from the point of view of space and agency

Cyperus fuscus was thought to be extinct in Sweden until it was rediscovered at Lake Vombsjön, Skåne, after 63 years in 2013. The species also occurred at the lake 2014—2021, but in very variable numbers. The variation depended largely on the water level during late summer. Favourable conditions in form of low levels in late summer have also occurred prior to 2013, though less frequently than in rCyperus fuscus was rediscovered at Lake Vombsjön in Skåne, southernmost Sweden, in 2013. The species occurred there between 1945 and 1950, which was the latest Swedish record except for a casual occurrence in a plant nursery. The comeback was spectacular with 2770 individuals counted along 4.7 km of the shore. In 2013, the water level was exceptionally low for technical reasons, with up to 100 m o

Objective: To determine the validity of 15 standardized instruments frequently used to measure the outcome of chronic arthritis treatment. Methods: Analyses were performed on data collected at a rehabilitation programme (n=216). The outcome measures evaluated were health-related quality of life, global health, pain, physical function and aerobic capacity. The instrument items were linked to the In

A search is presented for production of a heavy up-type quark (t') together with its antiparticle, assuming a significant branching ratio for subsequent decay into a W boson and a b quark. The search is based on 4.7 fb(-1) of pp collisions root s = 7 TeV recorded in 2011 with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Data are analyzed in the lepton + jets final state, characterized by

Political leaders affect the ordinary citizen´s perception of the world, making them important to study in relation to the upsurge of tension and conflict. In this specific thesis the focus is on how The Indian Express frames the discourses of the Prime Minister Narendra Modi in India concerning the relationship between Hindus, minorities and Non-Hindus. The analysis is done through an interrelate
