The Nairobi Summit on ICPD25 provided an opportunity to complete the unfinished business of the International Conference on Population and Development Programme of Action and also a chance to commit to a forward-looking sexual and reproductive health and rights agenda to meet the Sustainable Development Goals and targets by 2030.This background document for the Nairobi Summit on ICPD25 was conceiv
Background: Population-based patient reported outcome data in oesophageal cancer are rare. The main purpose of this study was to describe health-related quality of life (HRQOL) 1 year after the diagnosis of oesophageal cancer, comparing subgroups of curatively and palliatively managed patients. Methods: This is a nationwide population-based cohort study, based on the Swedish National Registry for
Introduction: Dual mobility cups (DMC) are gaining in popularity, as a method to reduce the risk of dislocation after fracture-related hip arthroplasty. Our aim was to compare revision rate in general, as well as due to dislocation and infection, after DMC and conventional THA due to femoral neck fracture, for each of the two groups of lateral and posterior approach. Materials and Methods: This ob
I denna uppsats härleds och testas en ny omviktningsalgoritm med vars hjälp det nativa tillståndet av aminosyresekvenser, bestående av 16 aminosyror, kan förutspås. Algoritmen används till att kartlägga de neutrala näten av α-helixes och β-sheets inom ett kontinuerligt proteinmodell. För att undersöka omviktningsalgoritmens potential för att förutsäga den termodynamiska stabiliteten av olika aminIn this thesis, a new reweighting algorithm for predicting the native conformations of amino acid sequences, consisting of 16 residues in a reduced representation continuous protein model, is derived and tested to map neutral nets of α-helices and β-sheets. For examining the potential of the reweighting algorithm for predicting the thermodynamic stability of amino acid sequences, it is applied to
Exposure to air pollution is associated with adverse health effects in humans, with special concern for exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5). The physicochemical properties of aerosols impact the health effects. Considering that we spend approximately 90% of our time indoors, it is important to gain increased understanding of indoor aerosol concentrations and properties. The overall aim of
As contribution to the debate about the interpretation of the process of economic growth before the Industrial Revolution, we discuss two concerns about the currently available estimates of historical national accounts and the way in which these estimates should be interpreted. Firstly, we argue that estimates of the long-Term trends of economic growth should make use of all information contained
Reindeer husbandry has long been a central element of the traditional livelihood and culture of indigenous Sami people in northern Sweden. However, it faces several challenges from competing land uses, primarily forestry. Different forest conditions are desired by forestry and reindeer husbandry to accommodate each sectors’ distinct interests, promoting high timber and pulp production or improved
The global pandemic of Covid-19 has drastically changed the behaviour of citizens around the world. This research aims to identify actions that ensure low-carbon, inclusive forms of mobility that respond to the behavioural changes during Covid-19. The city of Hamburg, Germany, and its problems with transport-related emissions and socio-economic inequalities serve as a representative case study. Th
The Swedish rules for closely held companies were enacted to combat income conversion abuse in limited liability companies where natural persons acted as both owners and employees. In the Swedish Income Tax Act, employment income is taxed according to a progressive rate while capital income is taxed according to a flat rate. The wage remuneration rule may increase the amount of dividend that the a
This thesis addresses the complexities of the situation of the Roma in Romania and Spain and the challenges of including isolated groups in society. The main texts used for comparison come from the Council of Europe’s expert bodies: the European Commission Against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI), the Advisory Committee (ACFC) under the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities (
A search for charged-lepton-flavor violating Formula Presented (Formula Presented, Formula Presented) interactions is presented, considering both top-quark production and decay. The data analyzed correspond to Formula Presented of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of Formula Presented recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The analysis targets events conta
The essential spectrum of the singular matrix differential operator of mixed order determined by the operator matrix [GRAPHICS] is studied. Investigation of the essential spectrum of the corresponding self-adjoint operator is continued but; now without assuming that the quasi-regularity conditions are satisfied. New conditions that guarantee that the operator is semi-bounded from below are derived
A search for diphoton resonances in the mass range between 10 and 70 GeV with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is presented. The analysis is based on pp collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb −1 at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded from 2015 to 2018. Previous searches for diphoton resonances at the LHC have explored masses down to 65 GeV,
A search is reported for excited τ-leptons and leptoquarks in events with two hadronically decaying τ-leptons and two or more jets. The search uses proton-proton (pp) collision data at s = 13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS experiment during the Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider in 2015–2018. The total integrated luminosity is 139 fb −1. The excited τ-lepton is assumed to be produced and to decay via a
Cross-section measurements for a Z boson produced in association with high-transverse-momentum jets (p T ≥ 100 GeV) and decaying into a charged-lepton pair (e + e − , μ + μ −) are presented. The measurements are performed using proton–proton collisions at s = 13 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb −1 collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. Measurements of angular correl
A search for the Standard Model Higgs boson in the H -> WW(*()) -> lvlv (l = e.mu) decay mode is presented. The search is performed using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 fb(-1) at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV collected during 2011 with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. No significant excess of events over the expected background is o
Background-beta-Adrenergic stimulation is the main trigger for cardiac events in type 1 long-QT syndrome (LQT1). We evaluated a possible association between ion channel response to beta-adrenergic stimulation and clinical response to beta-blocker therapy according to mutation location. Methods and Results-The study sample comprised 860 patients with genetically confirmed mutations in the KCNQ1 cha

This thesis is concerned with history within Nick Clegg’s and Nigel Farage’s political discourse during the six months leading up to the 2016 referendum on the United Kingdom’s membership in the European Union. Using Thematic Analysis combined with Klas-Göran Karlsson’s typology of the use of history, Jörn Rüsen’s typology of historical narrative and drawing on the theoretical framework of histori
