Under våren 2025 genomfördes en landskapsarkeologisk undersökning av en fastighet belägen på Bjärehalvön, nordvästra Skåne. Undersökningen visar med hjälpa av skriftliga källor, kartor samt fältstudier hur bebyggelse och landskap har förändrats från ca 1600 - 1900.
This study is about the vulnerability of parents to adult children with drug problems. The study is based on a self-reporting questionnaire (n = 687) distributed to parents in Sweden via family member organizations, treatment centers, and online communities. Most parents reported extensive negative consequences on relationships, social life, and mental health due to their children’s drug problems.
Background: Recently developed buprenorphine depot injections have the potential to reduce risk for diversion and misuse, and to increase adherence with fewer visits for supervised intake. However, it is unclear how patients perceive this new form of medication. The purpose of this study was to explore patients experiences of depot injections and their reasons for continuing, discontinuing, or dec
Combining video clips with forum discussions is a useful strategy in web-based distance learning. This article documents experiences from a project where specially recorded ‘user movies’ were used as a means of incorporating a user perspective in a web-based course on maintenance treatment of opiate addiction. User movies can help solve two common pedagogical challenges in distance learning. First
Which of the many available theories of consciousness should a newcomer to the field choose? We consider possible ways to deal with this conundrum. We argue that convergence of theories is unlikely. Next, we consider ways comparing theories highlighting significant issues with existing endeavors in this regard. Given the nature of the field, presumably empirical support has a critical role to play
The Routledge International Handbook of Research Security examines research security – the act of protecting and securing university research and teaching in the name of national security – through a multi-disciplinary and comparative lens.
BACKGROUND: The incidence of postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) in long COVID has been a growing concern since the first cases were reported in 2021. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence and clinical impact of POTS in a series of well-characterized patients with long COVID.METHODS: We prospectively analyzed 467 nonhospitalized, highly symptomatic (sick leave ≥50%) patie
Efter att kostnaderna för den svenska sjukförsäkringen skjutit i höjden vann bilden av de sjukskrivna som fuskare och inbillningssjuka mark i början av 2000-talet. Vad som inte kom fram i debatten var att antalet nya sjukskrivna faktiskt inte hade ökat särskilt mycket. Istället var det rehabiliteringsarbetet ute på arbetsplatserna som hade havererat, med allt längre långtidssjukskrivningar som res
Codependency is a term used to describe a range of behaviors among persons who are affected by the problematic drug use of family members. This article analyzes how 32 Swedish parents of adult children with drug problems talked about and understood codependency. The sociology of trouble was used as a theoretical framework and three significant themes were identified in the interviews. The parents
Opioid substitution treatment (OST) is still controversial, despite positive results. The issue of diversion to the illicit drug market is a cornerstone in the criticism typically voiced against the treatment. Little research is available concerning how professionals who work in OST view the issue of diversion. In this article, we discuss existing ideas and attitudes toward diversion of methadone
Aims Methadone and buprenorphine diversion by patients in opioid substitution treatment (OST) is a poorly understood phenomenon. We study the norms and attitudes on diversion among OST patients, including the role these norms and attitudes play as diversion risk factors. We also study whether perceived quality of care, social bonds to treatment staff, and deterrence can be associated with diversio
Läkemedelsassisterad rehabilitering (LAR) med metadon eller buprenorfin är idag den vanligaste behandlingsmetoden vid opioidberoende. LAR har starkt forskningsstöd, men är trots detta kontroversiell. Detta hänger bland annat samman med att det finns en rad avigsidor och risker knutna till metoden. I artikeln diskuteras de vanligaste invändningarna mot och riskerna med metoden. De områden som berör
