AIM: The aim of this study is to investigate the utility of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the early diagnosis of serious bacterial infections (SBI) in febrile infants and to compare it with C-reactive protein (CRP).METHODS: Retrospective study conducted in the paediatric emergency department in Gothenburg, Sweden, on previously healthy, full-term infants aged ≤60 days with fever without a source (FWS) f

BACKGROUND: Creatinine-based equations are the most used to estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI), the re-expressed Lund-Malmö Revised (r-LMR) and the European Kidney Function Consortium (EKFC) equations are the most validated. The EKFC and r-LMR equations have been suggested to have better performances in young adults, but this

In Sweden, urban planners are legally obligated to design neighbourhoods that allow future buildings to meet daylight requirements. However, this is challenging because planners can only define the building masses, without control over future building details such as glazing ratios, room layouts, and orientation.The Vertical Sky Component (VSC) is a well-established indicator for early daylight as

Med hjälp av Albert Camus ”Den revolterande människan” kan vi förstå samtidens krig och konflikter bättre.

In the spring of 2018 a study by Stefan Sellbjer at Linnaeus University showed on one hand that several professors did not believe they could meet the school's knowledge requirements in their own subjects.

It positions the genealogy of solidarity within early Christian writings in which the western theological concepts of suffering, love, and salvation are detailed. Linking the Pauline doctrine and writings of early theologians to the processes of modernity – of

Let f be a holomorphic self-map of the unit disc. We show that if log(1−|f(z)|) is integrable on a sub-arc of the unit circle, I, then the set of Carathéodory angular derivatives of f on I is a countable union of Beurling-Carleson sets of finite entropy. Conversely, given a countable union of Beurling-Carleson sets, E, we construct a holomorphic self-map of the unit disc, such that its set of Cara

The overarching research question that the Volume seeks to answer is the following: What are the characteristics and impacts of emerging international and regional asylum governance, and what are their implications on the Global Compact on Refugees (GCR)’s implementation, which calls for more equitable and effective arrangements for responsibility sharingResponsibility sharing?

In this study, the author provides her insights into the meaning of creativity, the myths of creativity, and the recipe for creativity.
