The primary study aim was to explore which factors could predict recovery at baseline and follow- up, with occupational value, occupational balance, satisfaction with daily occupations, occupational engagement, and sociodemographic and clinical factors as predictors. A secondary aim was to investigate stability over time in personal recovery from baseline to a 9- month follow- up among people with

This paper critiques the implementation of the EU's Smart Specialization Strategies (S3), advocating for a deeper analysis of the long-term evolution of regional industrial portfolios. We investigate the changing coherence of these portfolios across 401 German NUTS-3 regions from 1993 to 2018, utilizing skill- and task-based metrics for relatedness and complexity, alongside sequence analysis and o

Hundreds of active learning assignments are reported in the political education literature. However, the adaptability of these assignments to new courses can be limited by different learning outcomes, course themes, or institutional contexts. To assist educators in developing assignments that align with their teaching needs, this study introduces the concept of element design. Element design refer

The non-coding genome, constituting 98% of human DNA, remains largely unexplored, yet holds potential for identifying new biomarkers and therapeutic targets in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). In this study, we conducted a systematic analysis of recurrent somatic non-coding single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in pediatric B-cell precursor (BCP) ALL. We leveraged whole genome sequencing (WGS) data

This article presents a study of how meaning is created when participating in a fictional text universe, and thereby provides insight into literacy aspects of recreational use of fictional stories. The analysed material consists of transcriptions of pen-and-paper role-playing sessions. The results show that the role-players transform fragments of information from different languages, modalities an

We explore gender differences in preferences for competition and risk among children aged 9–12 in Colombia and Sweden, two countries differing in gender equality according to macro indices. We include four types of tasks that vary in gender stereotyping when looking at competitiveness: running, skipping rope, math and word search. We find that boys and girls are equally competitive in all tasks an

Under våren 2025 genomfördes en landskapsarkeologisk undersökning av en fastighet belägen på Bjärehalvön, nordvästra Skåne. Undersökningen visar med hjälpa av skriftliga källor, kartor samt fältstudier hur bebyggelse och landskap har förändrats från ca 1600 - 1900.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether relationships between work-related variables such as work engagement and job performance are explained by individual differences in personality. We tested this in a novel sample of leaders only (N = 344). Partial correlational analyses showed that controlling for brief Big Five personality scales lowered the explained variance on average

Economic crimes are – often – abstract crimes. Even for a somewhat well-trained accounting expert, these crimes are ambiguous, hard to detect and difficult to interpret. The abstract character of economic crimes is a problem in need of a solution. The abstractness needs to be reduced in order to make the court case judicially manageable, i.e. possible to work with during the process of trial and l

Purpose: The sugar industry is always pressured to be suitable and enhance its operational effectiveness. Digital Twin (DT) has the potential to transform this industry. However, the lack of industry-specific Key Performance Indicator (KPI) frameworks makes it challenging to implement them. This study provides a hierarchical KPI model for DT adoption in the sugar sector, interconnecting the United

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate if opioid-free anaesthesia (OFA), is non-inferior to standard of care (SOC), in patients at low risk for acute postoperative pain (APOP).DESIGN: Patient- and assessor-blinded, non-inferiority, randomised, controlled trial.SETTING: Single centre between March 2022 to February 2024.PATIENTS: 154 adult patients, ASA I - II, planned for elective laparoscopic surgery and risk-cla

INTRODUCTION: The gold standard for monitoring long-term glucose levels in patients with diabetes mellitus is glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). In conditions where the erythrocyte half-life is decreased, for example, in long-term kidney diseases and hemoglobinopathies, HbA1C may underestimate the long-term glucose exposure. Therefore, in these patient groups, other methods to monitor long-term glucose

Nestling feeding in altricial birds is a physiologically demanding phase of the annual cycle. Accordingly, parental effort in breeding songbirds has been suggested to be limited by the maximum capacity to perform sustained aerobic work. However, the maximum capacity for exercise and plasticity thereof is understudied in free-living, breeding songbirds. We tested two predictions related to the plas

Iron has many important functions related to energy metabolism. However, hemoglobin synthesis is always a priority. Iron deficiency can be caused by increased loss, insufficient intake, or decreased absorption from the intestine and reduced release from depots in systemic inflammation. Anemia appears when stores are depleted or when utilization of iron from the stores is impaired. Treatment with o

This study examined Poles’ acculturation preferences profiles toward two groups: people from Ukraine and the Middle East, and their relation to perceived cultural distance. The study framework emphasizes the juxtaposition of media and political narratives surrounding migrants arriving in Poland. Representative data from 924 participants was analysed. Regarding the preference toward individuals fro

With the abundance of data and digital traces of human behavior that are currently available, and the accessible algorithmic analyses to analyze them, management scholars have the opportunity to expand their scope of theoretical discovery and tackle increasingly complex management. However, we need additional elaboration on how algorithmic analysis can augment humans inference making, and how to b
