Centre for Psychiatry Research, Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Karolinska Institutet, & Stockholm Health Care Services, Region Stockholm, Sweden ABSTRACT Background: Various surveys have documented a negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the population’s mental health. There is widespread concern about a surge of suicides, but evidence supporting a link between global pandemics and suicide is very limited. Using historical data from the three major influenza pandemics of the 20th century, and recently released data from the first half of 2020, we aimed to investigate whether an association exists between influenza deaths and suicide deaths. Methods: Annual data on influenza death rates and suicide rates were extracted from the Statistical Yearbook of Sweden from 1910-1978, covering the three 20th century pandemics, and from Statistics Sweden for the period from January to June of each year during 2000- 2020.

  • The Globalization of Comparative Public Opinion Research Pippa
    Norris – Cross-national Surveys 11/10/2007 5:11 PM The globalization of comparative public opinion research Pippa Norris Harvard University For the Handbook of Comparative Politics eds. Neil Robinson and Todd Landman London: Sage Publications [email protected] [9,550 words] One of the most dramatic recent developments, transforming the field of comparative politics during recent decades, has been the expanding range of survey resources facilitating the systematic cross-national analysis of public opinion around the globe. This process started more than four decades ago, with Gabriel Almond and Sidney Verba’s path-breaking The Civic Culture (1963), which was immediately recognized and acclaimed by Philip Converse as ‘an instant classic’.1 Previously a few other cross-national attitudinal studies had been deployed, notably William Buchanan and Hadley Cantril’s 9-country How Nations See Each Other (1953), sponsored by UNESCO, sociological surveys of social stratification, and USIA surveys of attitudes towards international affairs.2 The civic culture survey laid the foundation for the comparative study of public opinion and subsequent cross-national survey research as a distinctive sub-field in political science open to empirical investigation. To explore the nature and evaluate the contribution of this sub-field, the first part of this chapter examines the globalization of the study of cross-national public opinion over successive decades. The statistical revolution spurred the initial growth in survey research in Europe and the United States, emphasizing individual-level social- psychological variables and quantitative scientific methods. More recently the rise of the European Union, international networks in the social sciences, the diffusion of the market research industry, and the expanding number of democratic states worldwide have all facilitated the growth and scope of data resources.

  • Untoward Penicillin Reactions T
    Bull. Org. mond. Sant| 19, 427-501 Bull. Wid Hlth Org. 1942-0 UNTOWARD PENICILLIN REACTIONS T. GUTHE, M.D. 0. IDSOE, M.D. R. R. WILLCOX, M.D. Venereal Disease and Treponematoses Section, World Health Organization, Geneva SYNOPSIS The literature on untoward reactions following the administra- tion of penicillin is reviewed. These reactions, including a certain number of deaths which have been reported, are of particular interest to health administrations and to WHO in view of the large-scale programmes for controlling the treponematoses which are now under way-programmes affecting millions of people in many parts of the world. The most serious problems are anaphylactic sensitivity pheno- mena and superinfection or cross-infection with penicillin-resistant organisms, and the reactions involved range in intensity from the mildest to the fatal; the incidence of the latter is estimated at 0.1-0.3 perpn.illion. injections. The authors point out that with increasing use of penicillin, more persons are likely to become sensitized and the number of reactions can therefore be expected to rise. The best prevention against such an increase is the restriction of the unneces- sary use of penicillin. BACKGROUND AND PERSPECTIVE To date, more than 400 antibiotic substances have been evolved- products of bacteria, ofac_tinomycetes, and of fungi, and antibiotically active agents biosynthesized by plants, derived from animal sources, or synthesized by the chemist. Not only has the discovery of antibiotics brought about a revolutionary advance in the control of infectious diseases in human medicine and public health, but antibiotics have also contributed significantly to success in agriculture and veterinary medicine (e.g., control ofinfectious diseases in cattle, growth stimulants in-animals, plant pathology, food preservation and processing, etc.).

  • New Typography in Scandinavia 2 in the Design Histories of Kjetil Fallan and Julia Meer.2 Titled
    New Ty pog raphy in Scandinavia: Domesticating theory and practice amongst the graphic trades, 1927–43 Trond Klevgaard A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Royal College of Art for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The Royal College of Art / Victoria and Albert Museum 22 December 2017 79,976 words ii Copyright statement This text represents the submission for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Royal College of Art. This copy has been supplied for the purpose of research for private study, on the understanding that it is copyright material, and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. iii Abstract This work provides the first extended account of New Typography’s path in Scandinavian countries, a topic which has yet to receive attention beyond a handful of articles and book chapters. Based on an exhaustive study of graphic trade journals published in Denmark, Norway and Sweden between the years of 1927 and 1943, it charts debate on New Typography and discusses the journals’ changing designs. Additional visual material has been sourced from a number of Scandinavian archives. In discussing the spread of New Typography’s theory and aesthetic from elsewhere in Europe, and then primarily from Germany, the thesis uses the concepts of domestication and networks, rather than those of diffusion or influence and centre–periphery. Dealing with a period in which the graphic designer had yet to appear as a professional figure, New Typography’s impact on a range of professional groups — all of which held responsibility for the design of graphic materials — is considered.
