Energy management
This paper explores young autistic adults’ energy management in relation to work, leisure activities and social relationships. Energy management strategies serve as different ways for the young autistic adults to sustain their energy balance by trying to understand what increases or reduces their energy levels. In this way, energy can be understood as modes of autistic functionality where the informants’ individual energy levels, the contexts in …

In this article, we explore experiences of support and self-management amongst young autistic adults in the context of vocational support interventions in Sweden. We analyse how young autistic men use different strategies to manage their vocational work and the support they need to maintain, achieve and sustain their work performance. Data consist of eleven interviews with 4 autistic young adult men in different work environments where vocational…
I try to tell myself that it's a machine, but it doesn't help
The Swedish sci-fi drama TV series Real Humans (original title in Swedish: Äkta människor) can be viewed as a playground for trying out imagined possible future human-robot relationships that can tell us something regarding ideas about possible futures for being human. In the paper, representations of ttranshumansexual relationships are explored, specifically how these representations reproduce and possibly challenge notions of being human. Three…

It is based on the results of an action research study of a civil society organisation. The material consists of notes from participatory work in a local centre for children, youth and their parents, and of interviews with professionals, a project manager of the local organisation, a…
Differential vulnerability and susceptibility
This paper discusses the concepts of vulnerability and susceptibility and their relevance for understanding and tackling health inequalities. Tackling socioeconomic inequalities in health is based on an understanding of how an individual's social position influences disease risk. Conceptually, there are two possible mechanisms (not mutually exclusive): there is either some cause(s) of disease that are unevenly distributed across socioeconomic gro…
Digital Health and the Embodying of Professionalism
This paper explores virtual health professionals (VHPs), digital health technology software, in Swedish health care. The aim is to analyze how health professionalism is (re)negotiated through avatar embodiments of VHPs and to explore the informants’ notions of what a health professional is, behaves and looks like. The paper builds on ethnographic fieldwork with informants working directly or indirectly with questions of digital health technology …
Risk of new psychiatric episodes in the year following divorce in midlife
AIMS: To examine if divorce is associated with an increased risk of psychiatric disorder. METHODS: A register-based cohort study of all married or divorced individuals aged 45-54 in Sweden in 2006. After exclusion of 129,669 individuals with a history of psychiatric care in 1987-2005, we followed 703,960 persons for psychiatric disorder during 2007, measured as psychiatric inpatient care, outpatient care and use of psychotropic medication.

The influence of self-reported leisure time physical activity and the body mass index on recovery from persistent back pain among men and women
Regular leisure time physical activity seems to improve recovery from persistent back pain among women
Work-related psychosocial events as triggers of sick leave - results from a Swedish case-crossover study
Exposure to problems in workplace relationships or a stressful work situation seems to be able to trigger reporting sick. Psychosocial work-environmental factors appear to have a short-term effect on individuals when deciding to report sick
School grades, parental education and suicide—a national register-based cohort study
BACKGROUND: To investigate whether school performance is a risk factor for suicide death later in life and, if so, to what extent this is explained by intergenerational effects of parental education. METHODS: This population-based cohort study comprises national birth cohorts between 1972 and 1981 in Sweden. We followed 898,342 students, graduating between 1988 and 1997 from the 9 years of compulsory school, equivalent to junior high school, unti…
Socioeconomic position and incidence of acute myocardial infarction
Air Pollution Exposure—A Trigger for Myocardial Infarction
The association between ambient air pollution exposure and hospitalization for cardiovascular events has been reported in several studies with conflicting results. A case-crossover design was used to investigate the effects of air pollution in 660 first-time myocardial infarction cases in Stockholm in 1993-1994, interviewed shortly after diagnosis using a standard protocol. Air pollution data came from central urban background monitors. No associ…
The relationship between a less gender-stereotypical parenthood and alcohol-related care and death
A less gender-stereotypical division of duties between parents in early parenthood may contribute to a long-term decreased gender disparity regarding risky alcohol consumption and alcohol-related harm. In order to know more about the causal direction however, future research has to consider subjects' drinking patterns in the years prior to parenthood
The contribution of parental and grandparental childhood social disadvantage to circulatory disease diagnosis in young Swedish men
Contextual social capital as a risk factor for poor self-rated health
Socioeconomic Position, Clustering of Risk Factors, and the Risk of Myocardial Infarction
We read with great interest the article by Kivimaki et al. on socioeconomic position (SEP), clustering of behavioral risk factors, and the risk of coronary heart disease published in the May 2007 issue of the Journal.1 To contribute to the sparse discussion on SEP and risk factor clustering, we propose the use of the wording of between-group clustering to describe the clustering of risk factors in different socioeconomic groups, as seen in Table …
The effect of leisure-time physical activity on the risk of acute myocardial infarction depending on Body Mass Index
While regular leisure-time physical activity seems to provide protection against myocardial infarction among lean, normal-weight and overweight subjects, this does not appear to be the case in obese subjects
Accumulation of adverse socioeconomic position over the entire life course and the risk of myocardial infarction among men and women
Background: Accumulation of adverse socioeconomic position over the life course is assumed to increase the risk of myocardial infarction. Objective: To analyse in detail whether the accumulation of adverse socioeconomic position over the life course increases the risk of myocardial infarction, using yearly information on individual socioeconomic position from birth to disease onset. Design: Case–control study of risk factors for incident myocardi…
The contribution of childhood and adult socioeconomic position to adult obesity and smoking behaviour
BACKGROUND: Our objective was to investigate the contribution of childhood and adult socioeconomic position (SEP) to adult obesity and smoking behaviour, in particular to establish the role of childhood circumstances across different studies in Europe and the US.
