This paper focuses on challenges in implementation of research in community-based occupational therapy practice. Based on a two-year project in a south Swedish municipality aiming at studying implementation of structured assessment procedures in the housing adaptation process, the first purpose is to provide a detailed project description, and the second is to report on first results identifying c

Both energy security and the demand for energy, particularly from renewable energy sources, as principle drivers, call for the investigation of renewable energy potential in Poland. The city of Zabrze, located in the Upper Silesia province and urban zone of Katowice, dedicates continuous efforts to the improvement of its waste management against the background of European Union Directives requirin

Background: Evidence-based guidelines should in most cases be followed also in the treatment of elderly. Older people are often suboptimally treated with the recommended drugs. Objectives: To describe how well general practitioners adhere to current guidelines in the treatment of elderly with cardiovascular disease and evaluate local education as a tool for improvement. Method: Data was colle

Börja med resterna för att minska matsvinnet från skolköken Skolköken kan fortsätta minska sitt matsvinn genom att först fokusera på att tillvarata rester och därefter minska överproduktionen. På så sätt kan engagemang väckas och varaktig förändring uppnås. Varje år slängs stora mängder mat. Matproduktion påverkar miljön och ju senare i värdekedjan desto större påverkan har skett. Att minska matOf the food produced for human consumption, one-third is lost or wasted. Food waste has an impact on the environment in several ways and it is thus required to reduce food waste in all parts of the value chain. The objective of this thesis is to identify drivers and barriers for implementing food waste reducing strategies in school kitchens. The study is conducted within the project Göteborgsmod

In the past few years, macroalgae farming has surged in popularity on a global scale as a potential major contributor to carbon dioxide removal. As the world’s biggest producer of seaweed, China has actively engaged in this global effort to develop macroalgae farming as a nature-based climate solution. Amid this global enthusiasm, however, is a lack of attention to the local living worlds. This st

Understanding independent and joint predictors of adverse pregnancy outcomes is essential to inform interventions toward achieving sustainable development goals. We aimed to determine the joint predictors of preterm birth and perinatal death among singleton births in northern Tanzania based on cohort data from the Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center (KCMC) zonal referral hospital birth registry b

BACKGROUND: Maternal prepregnancy obesity (BMI ≥30 kg/m(2)) and excessive gestational weight gain (GWG) have shown a strong positive association with a higher BMI and risk of obesity in the offspring. The aim of this study is to estimate the effect of a GWG restriction program for obese pregnant women on the children's BMI at 5 years of age and weight-for-length/height (WL/H) development from 2 mo

Konceptet city branding har växt fram som ett strategiskt verktyg i syfte att uppnå positiva uppfattningar av en stad bland invånarna samt attrahera de som vill bosätta sig på, investera i eller besöka platsen. Evenemang och festivaler har visat sig vara populära strategier ämnade att skapa mervärde i värdstadens samhälls- skikt, som bidrar till det varumärke och den image som önskas. Malmö är enThe concept of city branding has emerged as a strategic tool in order to achieve positive perceptions of a city among residents and to attract those who want to live, invest or visit the location. Events and festivals have proven popular strate- gies in order to create added value in all societal aspects of the host-city, contrib- uting to the brand and image as desired. Malmö is a multidimensiona

We present the first study of the year-round distribution, activity patterns, and habitat use of one of New Zealand’s most common seabirds, the fluttering shearwater (Puffinus gavia). Seven individuals from Burgess Island and one individual from Long Island were successfully tracked with combined light-saltwater immersion loggers for one to three years. Our tracking data confirms that fluttering s

In similarity to other European countries and the USA, Belgium, has been facing an emergence of microbreweries in the last decade. However, given the environmental footprint and, particularly, the water footprint of beer as well as the fact that microbreweries can sometimes lag behind in energy efficiency or water usage, it is worth considering the sustainability implications of this trend. The sa

Problem description: There is a big difference between the Swedish and the Spanish bread culture. In Spain they normally buy their baguette-looking “barra” in the bakery and then break it to eat together with the food. As the bread should be eaten the same day it’s baked, the Spaniards need to visit the bakery every day. Maybe the Swedish ryemeal bread, with a durability of many days, would be app

Introduction: Adults with spinal cord injuries are living longer than previously, and a majority are living in ordinary housing in the community. Housing accessibility is important for maintaining independent occupational performance for this population, but knowledge in this area is insufficient. We investigated housing adaptations and current accessibility problems among older adults with long-s

Maternal undernutrition can lead to protein-energy malnutrition, micronutrient deficiencies, or anemia during pregnancy or after birth. It remains a major problem, despite evidence-based maternal-nutrition interventions happening on ground. We conducted a scoping review to under-stand different strategies and delivery mechanisms to improve maternal nutrition, as well as how interventions have impr

Melanoma of the skin is the sixth most common type of cancer in Europe and accounts for 3.4% of all diagnosed cancers. More alarming is the degree of recurrence that occurs with approximately 20% of patients lethally relapsing following treatment. Malignant melanoma is a highly aggressive skin cancer and metastases rapidly extend to the regional lymph nodes (stage 3) and to distal organs (stage 4)
