ACCESSIBLE SUMMARY: • This paper describes Swedish outpatients' perception of the quality of psychiatric care they received. A large number of patients (1340) from 15 outpatient clinics participated in the study. • A newly developed and tested questionnaire, the Quality in Psychiatric Care - Out-Patient, was used. • The patients' highest ratings were for Encounter (staff-patient interaction), the

A number of different intervention programmes have been described in the literature for caregivers of people with dementia, but the nature of intervention has varied widely. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of psychosocial intervention on family caregiver's level of burden and satisfaction, and possible influence of the caregiver's relationship and health and the patient's

Kontrafaktisk artikel om vad som hänt om inte Franz Ferdinand mördats 1914.

Chronic immune stimulation such as Helicobacter pylori (hp) infection, Sjögren's syndrome or coeliac disease may initiate non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The opposite (appearance of autoimmunity) has also been reported. The aim of this study was to describe the pattern of these immune markers in patients with lymphoid malignancies. Sera from 96 patients with NHL (median age 72, range 38-88, F/M 41/55)

For developing countries like Pakistan, in the absence and scarcity of trust-worthy solar radiation data, the need for an empirical model to predict global solar radiation seems inevitable. Various climatological parameters can be used to develop such models. In this study, linear regression models are developed to estimate the monthly average daily global radiation using cloudiness data for Karac

The ImmunoDeficiency Resource (IDR) is a knowledge base for the integration of the clinical, biochemical, genetic, genomic, proteomic, structural, and computational data of primary immunodeficiencies. The need for the IDR arises from the lack of structured and systematic information about primary immunodeficiencies on the Internet, and from the lack of a common platform which enables doctors, rese

OBJECTIVES: To investigate a proposed association between in vitro fertilisation (IVF) and child asthma. DESIGN: The risk for asthma after IVF was estimated as ORs using Mantel-Haenszel analysis. SETTING: The Swedish Medical Birth Register. PATIENTS: Of the 2 628 728 children born in 1982-2007 and surviving the perinatal period, 31 918 were conceived by IVF. Presence of asthma was define

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen består av fyra oberoende empiriska studier. Samtliga studier bidrar till den ekonomiska litteraturen kring barn och ungdomars hälsa och hälsans betydelse för utbildning och arbetsmarknadsutfall senare i livet. Samtliga studier focuserar på typ 1-diabetes men beaktar olika åldrar för sjukdomens debut. En sammanfattande slutsats av avhandlingen är att individThis thesis consists of four independent exploratory research papers contributing to the economic literature on child and adolescent health, and adult educational and labor market outcomes. Each paper considers type 1 diabetes and focuses on onset over a specific age span. An overall conclusion of this thesis is that individuals with type 1 diabetes deviate from peers without diabetes, irrespectiv

Influenza A virus encodes two segments (7 and 8) that produce mRNAs that can be spliced. We have investigated if naturally occurring sequence polymorphisms in the influenza A virus family affects splicing of these viral mRNAs, as that could potentially alter the NS1/NS2- and/or M1/M2-protein ratios. We compared splicing efficiency of segment 7 and 8 mRNAs of A/Brevig Mission/1918/1 (H1N1) and A/Ne
