Background: SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination has been associated with both side effects and a reduction in COVID-related complaints due to the decrease in COVID-19 incidence. We aimed to investigate if individuals who received three doses of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines had a lower incidence of (a) medical complaints and (b) COVID-19-related medical complaints, both as seen in primary care, when compared t

BACKGROUND: The risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection among health care workers (HCWs) is a concern, but studies that conclusively determine whether HCWs are over-represented remain limited. Furthermore, methods used to confirm past infection vary and the immunological response after mild COVID-19 is still not well defined.METHOD: 314 HCWs were recruited from a Swedish Infectious Diseases clinic caring for

A search for light long-lived neutral particles with masses in the O(MeV–GeV) range is presented. The analysis targets the production of long-lived dark photons in the decay of a Higgs boson produced via gluon–gluon fusion or in association with a W boson. Events that contain displaced collimated Standard Model fermions reconstructed in the calorimeter or muon spectrometer are selected in 139 fb−1

Background: All-cause and AIDS-mortality in Europe has been decreasing between 1996 and 2020. However, regional differences as well as their drivers remain unclear. This study investigates mortality differences and their drivers, including usage of and response to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and active tuberculosis (TB), among people with HIV across Europe. Methods: People with HIV enrolled in Eu

Mental health problems among young adults often lead to obstacles to completing higher education and becoming established in the labour market. It is important to offer support that can help these individuals realize educational and vocational goals in order to become self-sufficient and achieve social inclusion. Individual Placement and Support (IPS) and Supported Education (SEd) are two methods

Measurements of fiducial cross sections for the electroweak production of two jets in association with a Z-boson are presented. The measurements are performed using 20.3 fb(-1) of proton-proton collision data collected at a centre-of-mass energy of = 8 TeV by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. The electroweak component is extracted by a fit to the dijet invariant mass distribution

BACKGROUND: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) constitutes a global epidemic. Overall outcome is poor, with mortality ranging from 10 to 70% and significant long-term morbidity. Several experimental reports have claimed effect on traumatic edema, but no clinical trials have shown effect on edema or outcome. Antisecretory factor, an endogenous protein, is commercially available as Salovum®, which is clas

Externally bonded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) plates or sheets have become a common retrofitting approach for sustaining old reinforced concrete structures in the modern era. The capacity of FRP-strengthened structures cannot be accurately estimated because the bond strength between FRP and concrete surface is accurately unpredictable. Various studies are available in the literature to predict

Abstract in Undetermined This paper describes the Swedish-Polish Sustainable Energy Platform, its background, purpose and goals, as well as the partnerships between Sweden and Poland to establish this initiative. The paper also outlines a project initiated by the Swedish-Polish Sustainable Energy Platform to describe and analyze sustainable energy systems in Sweden, particularly from the perspecti

In this thesis the inoperability I/O model has been used in a case study to evaluate if it is applicable to Swedish conditions and if it is a suitable approach of describing interdependencies. The inoperability I/O model can, given a perturbation from one or more sectors, estimate the ripple effects measured in terms of industry inoperability and economic losses. The model approximates physical in

Keywords: Brand Crisis on Social Media, Customer Judgements, Customer Feelings, Customer Brand Resonance, Customer Value. Purpose: The purpose of this master thesis is to investigate how a brand crisis on social media influences customer value of a brand. This is done by exploring the underlying key factors that influence customers’ perceptions during such crises. Theoretical Perspective: The t

This paper investigates the role of ethnicity in regional economic divergence across the Mexican states based on each state’s overall access to government services such as education, public infrastructure and healthcare based on the latest available data. The paper uses Mexico as a case study using the country’s three main ethnicities (Indigenous, Mestizo and European) as dependent variables for r

This study examines the implementation of circular economy principles in a company operating in a developing country. Focus is put on the start-up phase of the company, where we seek to understand the entrepreneurial motive behind implementing circular, sustainable practices in the infant stage of the company. Furthermore, the methods used to construct a circular, sustainable business model are in

Den här uppsatsen undersöker den svenska implementeringen av andelsbytesmekanismen för privatpersoner, som återfinns i artikel 8 i Fusions-Direktivet, hädanefter FD. Uppsatsen undersöker även hur Sverige har valt att skydda sin beskattningsrätt när aktieägaren emigrerar till en annan EU MS medan hen äger aktier erhållna via ett andelsbyte. Syftet bakom undersökningen är att utreda huruvida om den This thesis examines the Swedish implementation of the exchange of shares mechanism for individuals, found in article 8 of the Tax Merger Directive, henceforth TMD, and how Sweden has chosen to safeguard its taxation right when the shareholder holding exchanged shares emigrates to another EU MS. The purpose behind this is to examine if the Swedish im-plementation, given the more recent case-law fr

This report is an external evaluation of the scientific basis of the Norwegian assessment system for ecological condition (Fagsystem for økologisk tilstand), commissioned by the Ministry of Climate and Environment (KLD).

The infringement of intellectual property rights has devastating effects on trade, the free circulation of goods, employment, development and public health. Rights holders and the companies legitimately exploiting them are the main parties injured by this and in the last few years, infringement has increased by more than 1000%. The Commission has fought against such infringement since the eighties
