A growing body of consumer culture theory (CCT) research has pointed to the way that places are increasingly conceptualised and commodified as brands and consumption objects (Lichrou et al., 2008; Giovanardi et al., 2018). Research has explored consumers’ experiences with different kinds of spaces and places, including retail settings (e.g. Penaloza, 1998; Kozinets et al., 2004; Maclaran & Bro

OBJECTIVE: To compare the pain course between methotrexate (MTX)-refractory early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients randomised to infliximab (IFX) versus sulfasalazine+hydroxychloroquine (SSZ+HCQ).METHODS: The randomised, controlled, open-label SWEFOT (SWedish FarmacOTherapy) trial enrolled new-onset RA patients Oct 2002-Dec 2005. After 3 months on MTX, patients not reaching low disease activity

Introduction: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the most serious adverse effect of oral anticoagulant (OAC) treatment. The effect of OAC reversal therapy on outcome is uncertain. We compared 90-day survival and functional outcome in patients with OAC-ICH who received OAC reversal therapy with those who did not. Methods: Data from The Swedish Stroke Register (Riksstroke) for all registered cases of

The K̄NN bound system, symbolically denoted as "K-pp", is the simplest K̄-nuclear bound system which has been widely discussed as a consequence of the strongly attractive K̄N interaction in I = 0 channels. Many theoretical works have pointed out the existence of the "K-pp" bound system, but the calculated properties such as the binding energy and the width spread out due to the uncertainty of the

The effect of gate-length variation on key transistor metrics for vertical nanowire p-type GaSb metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) are demonstrated using a gate-last process. The new fabrication method enables short gate-lengths (Lg = 40 nm) and allows for selective digital etching of the channel region. Extraction of material properties as well as contact resistance are The effect of gate-length variation on key transistor metrics for vertical nanowire p-type GaSb metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) are demonstrated using a gate-last process.

This article examines debates on historical theory in the journals Historisk tidskrift and Scandia between 1965, when theory is frequently said to have been introduced in Swedish historiography, and 2009. The study focuses on discussions on the epistemological concepts “theory”, “objectivity”, “relativism”, “truth”, and “neutrality”. It is shown that some historians initially perceived theory as a

Skäl för att överväga huruvida skäl för ett beslut, i frånvaron av bevis, bör berättiga beslutsfattande i särskilda omständigheter presenteras. Det föreslås att en distinktion mellan skäl och bevis baserad på deras tid-indexikala olikheter ger oss skäl att, i särskilda omständigheter, formulera beslutsfattandeprocedurer som inte, utöver skäl, också kräver bevis för premisserna för beslutet.

Introduction: The metabolic syndrome (MetS) is an adverse metabolic state composed of obesity, hyperglycemia/pre-diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. It substantially increases the risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality, and has a huge impact on public health. Area covered: The present review gives an update on the definition and prevalence of MetS, and its impact

The orthodox definition of hope suffers from an exclusion problem: it is unable to exclude subjects without hope. In fact, the orthodox definition even allows for despair to be falsely classified as hope. This problem suggests two basic desiderata for a successful analysis of hope: it should solve the exclusion problem, and it should have the resources to explain why, in a given situation, a subje

AIMS: We aimed to search for associations between cognitive test results with mortality and rehospitalization in a Swedish prospective heart failure (HF) patient cohort.METHODS AND RESULTS: Two hundred and eighty-one patients hospitalized for HF (mean age, 74 years; 32% women) were assessed using cognitive tests: Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), A Quick Test of Cognitive speed, Trail Making T

Recension av sociologen Roland Paulsens bok Tänk om - en studie i oro

The aim of this dissertation is to investigate how public spaces in the Swedish History Museum in Stockholm have materialized in relation to cultural policy objectives and ideals of a democratic and inclusive museum. The investigated time period spans from 1943 to 2013. The Swedish History Museum is a state-run archaeological museum, where norms and values are expressed through various governmenta

Syftet med att samla fyra artiklar om den katolska kyrkan i olika delar av Europa är att visa hur olika dess ställning och uttrycksformer är i olika länder och diskutera orsakerna till detta. Artiklarna bygger på föredrag i den serie av åtta föredrag och fem seminarier som hölls på samma tema vid Centrum för teologi och religionsvetenskap, Lunds universitet, mellan februari och september 2019, med
