Precision medicine is transforming healthcare by enabling diagnostics and treatment tailored to each patient’s unique biological characteristics. Whole genome sequencing and whole transcriptome sequencing (WGTS) have recently been introduced as clinical routine for pediatric cancer in Sweden, but the health economic and organizational consequences of this shift have not yet been fully mapped. Th
Background: Poor oral health is associated with several non-communicable diseases including cardiovascular disease. There are also well-known associations between lifestyle habits, cardiovascular disease, and oral health. In Europe, SCORE2 is a recommended instrument for assessing an individual's risk of a cardiovascular event within 10 years. However, no previous studies have examined the associa
If you suspect research misconduct or other deviations from good research practice, you must immediately report this to the Vice-Chancellor or the Deviations from Good Research Practice Review Board. If the suspicion concerns misconduct only, the report can be made directly to the Swedish National Board for Assessment of Research Misconduct (Npof).If you are unsure what kind of suspected deviation
Background: There is a demand for a flexible and individually tailored patient education to meet patients' specific needs and priorities, but this area has seldom been studied in patients with spondyloarthritis (SpA), a family of inflammatory rheumatic diseases. The aim of the present study was to identify needs and priorities in patient education in patients with SpA. A second aim was to investig
Purpose – This chapter presents a framework for an action research based intervention to develop and transform sustainable healthcare in a regional context. The framework is illustrated by the case of the Regional Cancer Centre (RCC) West in western Sweden. Design/methodology/approach – The framework draws upon and develops Pettigrew’s context-content-process model of strategic change and applies
Background Job stress and burnout are highly frequent in healthcare professionals, and prevalence in nurses can be as high as 40%. Mindfulness-based interventions have been shown to be effective in reducing stress and increasing well-being in a wide range of populations and contexts. However, controlled studies with healthcare professionals, and especially nurses, are scarce. Objectives, design an
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Kartering av makrofyter, framtagandet av en klassificeringsmetod för att kunna beräkna ekologisk status för Ålands skärgård och skapandet av miljöövervakningsprogram Europeiska unionen har i sitt miljöarbete bestämt att varje medlemsland ska upprätta övervakningsprogram och klassificeringsmetoder för att övervaka miljöns ekologiska status. Varje medlemsland anAbstract This mater project was conducted in Åland by assignment by the Government of Åland Islands. The project consisted of two parts, one survey of macrophytes and classification of the ecological status and a proposal on a marine monitoring program. The survey of macrophytes was conducted in the late summer of 2012, by SCUBA divers along 50 meters long transect at twelve sites in the Åland ar
Social trust is a moral resource with a normatively highly desirable pay-off. Previous research argues that universal welfare state programmes ‘make’ social trust whereas means-testing programmes ‘break’ it. Despite its important implications for welfare-state design, comparative longitudinal evidence for this hypothesis is scarce. To test whether within-country changes in social trust are associa
Aims: Iron deficiency (ID) is comorbid in up to 50% patients with heart failure (HF) and exacerbates disease burden. Ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) reduced HF hospitalizations and improved quality of life when used to treat ID at discharge in patients hospitalized for acute HF with left ventricular ejection fraction <50% in the AFFIRM-AHF trial. We quantified the effect of FCM on burden of disease an
Background: Parkinson’s disease is now one of the fastest-growing neurodegenerative disorders in the developed world, with an increasing prevalence and associated socioeconomic costs. Progression of the disease leads to a gradual deterioration in patients’ quality of life, despite optimal treatment, and both medical and societal needs increase, often with the assistance of paid and/or unpaid careg
Sekundär användning av e-hälsodata är ett viktigt steg i att direkt och indirekt stärka vården, både inom Sverige och EU. Inom kort förväntas den uppmärksammade EU-förordningen om ett European Health Data Space (EHDS) antas. Genom förordningen kommer ett gemensamt hälsodataområde skapas vilket bland annat möjliggör sekundär användning av uppemot 450 miljoner EU-medborgares e-hälsodata för exempelv
Background: Data from 1998 showed that CT represents about 10% of all the diagnostic X-ray examinations and almost 70% of the total radiation dose from medical diagnostic examinations in Sweden. Because of this there is a strong need to minimize the radiation dose and adapt the dose to each patient’s examination area and anatomy. Today practically all-modern CT systems are delivered with automatic
This thesis seeks to determine whether it is possible to strike a regulatory balance between satisfying the interests derived from individuals' right to privacy and states' defence of national security. However, the goal of this work is not to conduct an abstract analysis of the interrelations of these, sometimes conflicting, interests but to find practical solutions to a present issue, th
Tuberculosis (TB) patients who are diagnosed but not registered and initiated on TB treatment are categorised as initial loss to follow-up (ILTFU). ILTFU is a key driver of morbidity and mortality associated with TB and is a contributing factor to high TB transmission rates. LINKEDin was a quasi-experimental study which evaluated two specific interventions for reducing ILTFU in three high-TB burde
There has long been a consensus that healthcare systems play a critical role in enhancing human well-being and contributing to a healthy society. Efforts should be made to promote public awareness and execute necessary measures to improve healthcare. Because of this, a computer-based system is created to allow individuals to self-diagnose their health state based on specified symptoms. This approa

PowerPoint-Präsentation Can sown flower-rich fields enhance pollination in the agricultural landscape? Agricultural intensification has led to a massive decrease of biodiversity and loss of semi-natural habitats in agricultural landscapes. As a result, biodiversity-dependent ecosystem services like crop pollination are at risk! Agri-environmental schemes (AES) aim to restore part of the biodiversi
