Few studies have investigated the real-life outcomes of interdisciplinary multimodal pain rehabilitation programs (IMMRP) for chronic pain. This study has four aims: investigate effect sizes (ES); analyse correlation patterns of outcome changes; define a multivariate outcome measure; and investigate whether the clinical self-reported presentation pre-IMMRP predicts the multivariate outcome. To thi

In this study I investigate how collaborative relations in temporary organizing are mobilized and aligned towards a creative vision using affective practices. Building on the current literature, I argue that affective relations are a central to understanding the tension ridden negotiations of collaborative relations in temporary organizing. I draw upon the notion of affective practices to conceptu

Background: Epidemiological evidence on weight change and atrial fibrillation (AF) remains limited and inconsistent. Previous studies on body mass index (BMI) in youth and AF rarely considered subsequent BMI. This study aimed to assess the associations of AF with weight change and BMI in youth, as well as modified effect by genetic susceptibility of AF. Methods: The study included 21,761 individua

CONTEXT: Cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CM) is an increasing public health concern. Previous observational studies have suggested inverse associations between coffee, tea, and caffeine intake and risks of individual cardiometabolic diseases; however, their associations with CM and related biological markers are unknown.METHODS: This prospective study involved 172 315 (for caffeine analysis) and 1

Google Trends has for over a decade been used by researchers in medicine and the social sciences who want to use information about internet searches to gain new data and insights concerning medical and social issues. A similar tool by the same company, Google Flu Trends, was abolished by Google in 2015 due to serious problems with accuracy; raising larger questions about the quality of the data pr

This presentation focuses the emotional dilemmas of social workers who recruit and assess foster parents, in a context increasingly defined by market dynamics. Following privatization paralleled with increasing need for childcare, private and public actors today compete to contract potential foster parents in Sweden. For this paper, 43 interviews (with social workers and managers), 21 observation This presentation focuses the emotional dilemmas of social workers who recruit and assess foster parents, in a context increasingly defined by market dynamics.

In the wake of an aesthetic capitalism, the cultural and creative industries (CCI) have become a growing and thriving sector of Western and other economies. Cultural entrepreneurial processes propel the CCI and their regime of aesthetic innovation and constitute constantly evolving art worlds. My dissertation focuses on the material-affective dimensions of these art worlds. It explores cultural en

The recent history of the Ukrainian authoritarian far right is one of paradoxes. If one looks at the polls, it has performed poorly; its modest successes have been regional and short-lived. On the other hand, it has been highly successful in terms of shaping memory politics in the country. It has had a disproportional influence on history writing, having invested significant efforts into building

Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy presents the possibility of tracing and quantifying the uptake of the drug in the body and performing dosimetry, potentially allowing individualization of treatment schemes. However, the details of how neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) respond to different absorbed doses are insufficiently known. Here, we investigated the relationship between tumor-absorbed dose an

Floden av böcker om Adolf Hitler, en av världshistoriens mest maniska maktspelare, förefaller outsinlig. Hitler och nazismen sysselsätter ständigt nya generationer av historiker. Flödet av vittnesmål från dem som drogs in i Hitlers trollkrets när det begav sig har däremot av naturliga skäl sinat. De flesta nazikoryféerna – med Albert Speer som det stora undantaget – skrev inte ner sina minnen av d
