Patients with diabetes mellitus have more extensive coronary artery disease, more disease progression, and restenosis. The use of drug-eluting stents (DES) in these patients is widespread, despite uncertain long-term safety and efficacy. All consecutive patients with diabetes mellitus in Sweden who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention were entered into the Swedish Coronary Angiography and

Diskrimineringslag (2008:567) trädde i kraft den 1 januari 2009. Lagen erbjuder ett bestämt antal avskilda grunder som en missgynnande handling behöver ha samband med för att diskriminering ska kunna anses föreligga. Diskrimineringsgrunderna utgör avskilda kategorier och kan varken kombineras eller adderas. Kategorierna utgörs av kön, könsöverskridande identitet eller uttryck, etnisk tillhörighet,The Discrimination Act (2008:567) entered into force on the 1st of January 2009. The act offers a set number of separate grounds with which a disadvantageous action needs to have a connection for discrimination to be considered present. The grounds for discrimination constitute separate categories and can neither be combined nor added. The categories consist of gender, gender identity or expressio
Background: For most patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) kidney transplantation is the best treatment option. Best outcomes are achieved with living donation. To increase access to living donation for patients who are not compatible with their living donors, Kidney Exchange Programs (KEPs) have evolved. By exchanging donors, compatibility can be achieved thus enabling transplantation.
Sammanfattning När EU:s dataskyddsförordning (GDPR) trädde i kraft 2016 såg det tekniska landskapet helt annorlunda ut än vad det gör idag 2026. Användandet av artificiell intelligens (AI) är idag betydligt mer utbredd inom en rad olika sektorer. AI-system används ofta för att behandla stora mängder personuppgifter, vilket skapar stora utmaningar för efterlevnaden av GDPR:s principer om transparen
Quality Indicators: Help or hinder? - The study examines the National Board of Health and Welfare's construction of quality in women's shelters in relation to women's safety and security. The study is based on the quality indicators developed by the National Board of Health and Welfare on behalf of the government. The National Board of Health and Welfare is an authority in Sweden with
The purpose of this master’s thesis is to gain in-depth knowledge about how the provision of digital books via the e-book service Biblio functions in Swedish public libraries and how this activity can be understood through the library's mission of promoting the development of a democratic society. To gather the empirical material for this study, we have conducted semi-structured interviews wit

Autoimmune diseases are complex and characterized by the loss of self-tolerance to self-antigens, leading to an immune attack on target tissues of the body. Psoriasis (Ps) and psoriasis arthritis (PsA) are poorly understood autoimmune diseases with unknown genetic and environmental sources. It has been previously demonstrated that a single intra peritoneal injection of mannan induces an acute infl
Agriculture is an essential economic activity which sustains the livelihood of millions of people around the world. Maize is one of the most grown, consumed and traded cereals in the world mostly because of its adaptability to varied environmental conditions. Maize farming depends on climatic factors like temperature, rainfall and radiation to thrive but this also means that it is very susceptible
The growing proportion of green energy in the electricity grids brings with it a growing need of grid stabilizing resources to counteract the inherent intermittency of renewable energy resources. This is where the grid scale energy storages come in handy. They efficiently offset the intermittencies of solar, wind etc. resources by energy arbitrage and peak shifting. This thesis looks into the econ
Context: Due to the complexity and challenging nature of radical prostatectomy (RP), it is likely that both short-and long-term outcomes strongly depend on the cumulative number of cases performed by the surgeon as well as by the hospital. Objective: To review systematically the association between hospital and surgeon volume and perioperative, oncologic, and functional outcomes after RP. Evidence
Background and Objectives Weak expression of A/B histo-blood group antigens is often explained by single nucleotide substitutions at the ABO locus. However, hybrid alleles containing segments from different ABO alleles can result in unexpected phenotypes and may complicate genotype analysis. We investigated the basis of weak B phenotype in a referred sample. Materials and Methods A healthy young w
Human beings are definitely storytellers capable of travel back and forward in time. We not only construct stories about ourselves, but also share these with others (McAdams and McLean 2013). We construct and internalize an evolving and integrative story for life, that is, a narrative identity (Singer 2004). However, the life story is just one of three layers of personality that are in a dynamical
T1-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies report early atrophy in the left anterior temporal lobe, especially the perirhinal cortex, in semantic variant primary progressive aphasia (svPPA). Improved segmentation protocols using high-resolution T2-MRI have enabled fine-grained medial temporal lobe (MTL) subregional measurements, which may provide novel information on the atrophy pattern and disea
Reducing inequality is number 10 of the United Nations sustainable development goals. Inequality in society affect economic growth, development and poverty reduction, and through these indirectly affect environmental degradation, food security and other major problems facing society today. Analyzing the temporal and spatial dynamics of economic inequality requires comparable data on finer scales.
