Rapportserien Research Reports in Social Work är i första hand en möjlighet för personer verksamma vid Socialhögskolan att presentera aktuell forskning. Förutom forskningsrapporter rymmer RRSW även licentiatavhandlingar. Tanken är att RRSW ska vända sig till en bred läsekrets bestående av såväl forskare som studenter och praktiker. De texter som publiceras i RRSW ska vara resultat av slutförda pro

Rationale, aims and objectives: The process of transferring older, vulnerable adults from an elder care facility to the hospital for medical care can be an emotionally and physically stressful experience. The recent development of modern mobile radiography may help to ease this anxiety by allowing for evaluation in the nursing home itself. Up until this point, no health economic evaluation of the

There is an increasing demand for real world evidence. The shift towards relative effectiveness assessment increasingly based on real world data is a natural consequence of the shift towards new adaptive pathways for development and introduction of new medicines in cancer care. The increasing number of alternative treatment options will further increase the need for outcomes data to help optimize

Background and aim Pain is common and adds to the global burden of disease. However, individuals suffering from pain are a heterogeneous group in terms of pain spreading, intensity and duration. While pain influences overall health care consultation not everyone with pain consult health care. To be able to provide health care matching the patients’ needs increased knowledge about what factors dete

Popular Abstract in Swedish Under de senaste årtiondena har vattenfärgen i många svenska sjöar och vattendrag ökat. Detta innebär att vattnet blir brunare, och detta fenomen benämns därför brunifiering. Brunifiering är inget unikt för Sverige, utan förekommer på åtskilliga ställen på norra halvklotet. Brunifieringen påverkar det akvatiska ekosystemet och vattnets potentiella samhällsnytta. Ur en eThe term brownification refers to the trend of increasing water color, i.e. the water becoming browner, which has been observed throughout the northern hemisphere over the last decades. Brownification has both ecological and societal implications. From an ecological point of view the impaired light climate may e.g. reduce aquatic primary production and affect predator-prey interactions within the

Background: The person-centred Individual Enabling and Support (IES) model is a novel return-to-work (RTW) intervention for people with affective disorders that was developed from evidence-based supported employment for persons with severe mental illness. Typically, supported employment is integrated into mental healthcare and provides a network around the service user and close collaboration with

The objective of this study protocol is to describe the development of a process model for occupational health surveillance for workers exposed to hand-intensive work (the HIW-model), and to describe the studies that will explore the model. The studies are designed to: (1) explore stakeholders’ experiences of the model, and (2) explore if, and how, the model affects actions for reduction of exposu

Purpose: The study aimed to explore family caregivers’ support needs prior to allo-HSCT, how these change over time and whether they are associated with demographic factors and caregiver outcome. Methods: This longitudinal repeated measure study included 87 family caregivers of allo-HSCT recipients: 63% were partners, 74% women, 65% lived with the recipient, and their mean age was 54 years. They c

Introduction: The aim of the international CORE project was to explore the databases of the existing hernia registries and compare them in content and outcome variables. Methods: The CORE project was initiated with representatives from all established hernia registries (Danish Hernia Database, Swedish Hernia Registry, Herniamed, EuraHS, Club Hernie, EVEREG, AHSQC) in March 2015 in Berlin. The foll

We study inhomogeneous random graphs in the subcritical case. Among other results, we derive an exact formula for the size of the largest connected component scaled by logn, with n being the size of the graph. This generalizes a result for the "rank-1 case". We also investigate branching processes associated with these graphs. In particular, we discover that the same well-known equation for the su

Purpose: The knowledge about young adults who have lost a parent to cancer is limited, and to reach a broader understanding about this group, this study used the Dual Process Model of Coping with Bereavement (Stroebe and Schut, 1999) as a theoretical framework. The purpose of this study was to describe loss- and restoration-oriented bereavement stressors and psychosocial wellbeing of young adults
