AIM: Traditional methods used when managing self-harm in a psychiatric inpatient setting tend to infringe on the autonomy of the individuals receiving treatment and are often experienced as practically and emotionally challenging by care providers. Therefore, we examined care providers' experiences of an alternative method negotiating self-harm abstinence agreements, which can be viewed as a form

Introduction: Deliberate self-harm (DSH) is a common symptom in psychiatric disorders. It is a cross-diagnostic symptom, although it has mainly been associated with borderline personality disorder (BPD). Research has suggested an association between DSH and deficits in executive functioning. The main aim of the current study was to assess three specific aspects of executive functioning (EF) (worki

Hypoxic–ischaemic brain injury (HIBI) is the main causeof death and disability in patients who are comatose afterreturn of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) from cardiacarrest [1]. Te electroencephalogram (EEG) is a usefultool to assess the severity of HIBI and provide prognostic information. In addition, EEG can be used to diagnoseepileptiform activity in patients with suspected seizuresand monitor

The present population based cohort study investigates the association between alcohol intake and cancer of the upper digestive tract. The design was prospective with baseline assessment of intake of beer, wine and spirits, smoking habits, educational level and 2-19 years' follow up on risk of upper digestive tract cancer (oropharyngeal and oesophageal). During a mean follow up of 13.5 years, 156

This article is devoted to a study of the Hardy space Hlog(Rd) introduced by Bonami, Grellier, and Ky. We present an alternative approach to their result relating the product of a function in the real Hardy space H1 and a function in BMO to distributions that belong to Hlog based on dyadic paraproducts. We also point out analogues of classical results of Hardy-Littlewood, Zygmund, and Stein for Hl

I dagens globala, digitala och postnationella samhälle verkar svenskämnet under andra villkor än tidigare. I artikeln beskrivs och diskuteras resultat från en litteraturdidaktisk studie som fokuserar på vad dessa förändrade villkor innebär för svenskämnets litteraturundervisning. Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur gymnasieelever samtalar om berättelser för att diskutera hur litteraturundervisning

A report of the Sweden new government on the future for bioenergy is presented. The report state that the agriculture sector supplies 1.5 TWh of biomass energy to the Swedish energy system in the form of wheat, rapeseed, and some willows. A report discloses the fact that agriculture can play an important role in the development of Swedish energy system in the future. The most profitable crops for

This article addresses the obstacle avoidance problem for setpoint stabilization tasks in complex dynamic 2-D environments that go beyond conventional scenes with isolated convex obstacles. A combined motion planner and controller is proposed that integrates the favorable convergence characteristics of closed-form motion planning techniques with the intuitive representation of system constraints t

Lunds universitet har på uppdrag av Naturvårdsverket under 2021–2022 utvärderat metodik för nationell pollinatörsövervakning. Metodiken bygger på rapporten ”Proposal for an EU pollinator monitoring scheme” som tagits fram av en expertgrupp inom EU och ska ge underlag för uppföljning av pollinatörer på nationell nivå med ett främsta fokus på landskapet utanför områden som omfattas av EU:s gemensamm

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a lethal condition where expansion of the vascular extracellular matrix contributes to increased pulmonary vascular resistance. Versican, a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan, is known to accumulate in vascular lesions of PAH and hyaluronan and tenascin-C, binding partners of versican, are elevated in PAH. The specific distribution and localization of versica

Projektet Sol i gemenskap: deltagande, organisation och regelverk (SiG) syftade till att undersöka hur deltagande, organisation och regelverk påverkar de allmänna villkoren för så kallade ”solgemenskaper” samt vilka grupper som investerar i gemensamt ägd solelproduktion i Sverige. Det har gjorts genom en kartläggning av befintliga solgemenskaper och re-gelverk för gemensamt ägd elproduktion i Sver

The aim of the study reported in this paper is to investigate how students understand continuity and differentiability during and after a calculus course. The students’ choices of representations, both claimed and acted, were also studied. The study is part of a larger study of four student groups taking a calculus course. 207 students answered a questionnaire during the course and of them, 11were

Since 1988, China's influence in Myanmar, both on a political and financial scale, has been relevant. Following the democratic bend that occurred in former Burma in 2011 and the ensuing opening to global markets, Beijing has partially lost its long-held privileges in the country. In order to maintain a solid geo-economic supremacy in Naypyitaw's internal affairs, since 2006, China has embarked upo

This chapter defines poverty, differentiates between absolute and relative poverty, and analyzes the criticisms of these concepts. Furthermore, the chapter analyzes the effects of poverty on child development according to developmental systems theory, listing direct, moderated, mediated, transactional, and community effects. Statistics on poverty for industrialized and developing countries are pro
