The power of social services, involving there line of work with care for young persons with problems, is often discussed in negative terms by the general public and has gotten a great deal of attention, therefore we got interested of the social workers side of the story. The purpose of this study is to highlight social workers experiences of their power in their work with care for young persons wi
The mobile research lab is an emerging research methodology increasingly applied in urban studies to investigate phenomena like places, infrastructures, nature and inhabitants of cities.

In their comment piece, Laycock and Lam (Environ. Res. Lett. 13 068001) focused on the importance for reducing emissions of actions beyond individual choices and overconsumption, and raise the issue of family planning as a human right. Here we respond that both individual and collective actions, in private and professional life, are important to reducing emissions to near zero in the next few deca
This paper analyses how large Swedish firms and financial institutions integrate climate change and biodiversity into their business strategies and governance structures. Using unique 2022 and 2023 survey data and logistic probability models, we examine how internal and external factors shape early responses to the EU Taxonomy and the CSRD. Our findings confirm that the integration of climate chanThis paper analyses how large Swedish firms and financial institutions integrate climate change and biodiversity into their business strategies and governance structures.

Obesity is a key contributor to heart failure, driving increased morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. This association is supported by multiple pathophysiological mechanisms and consistent epidemiological evidence, particularly not only in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), but also in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Given the rising prevalence of
Popular Abstract in Swedish Närmare 30.000 svenskar drabbas årligen av stroke (slaganfall). I ungefär 85 % av fallen är orsaken en blodpropp i ett av hjärnans kärl s.k. hjärninfarkt. En avstängning av blodflödet orsakar en snabbt insättande förlust av funktionen i det drabbade området, t.ex. halvsidig förlamning, bortfall av delar av synfältet liksom störning av olika högre hjärnfunktioner såsom mAbstract Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the western world, and the number one cause of disability. 85% of all strokes are ischemic. Most stroke survivors will experience recovery of function. The mechanisms behind this improvement are partly unknown, but may involve elements of both compensation and restoration. Exposure to an enriched environment (EE) that stimulates social interac
The importance of the N-terminal region of human cystatin C or chicken cystatin for the kinetics of interactions of the inhibitors with four cysteine proteinases was characterized. The association rate constants for the binding of recombinant human cystatin C to papain, ficin, actinidin and recombinant rat cathepsin B were 1.1 x 10(7), 7.0 x 10(6), 2.4 x 10(6) and 1.4 x 10(6) M-1.s-1, whereas the
The effect of thermal ionization on the growth of soot particles has been analyzed by detailed kinetic modeling of a low-pressure premixed acetylene flame. The detailed kinetic model considers the oxidation of fuel, the formation and growth of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and particle inception, coagulation, as well as mass growth via surface reactions. A numerical method has been developed,
Charge transport and recombination in nanostructured semiconductors are poorly understood key processes in dye-sensitized solar cells. We have employed time-resolved spectroscopies in the terahertz and visible spectral regions supplemented with Monte Carlo simulations to obtain unique information on these processes. Our results show that charge transport in the active solar cell material can be ve
Objective: To assess the influence of sex hormones on markers of bone turnover and to explore the association between these markers and bone health in middle-aged and elderly European men. Design: A cross-sectional population-based survey. Methods: Men aged 40-79 years were recruited from population registers in eight European centres. Subjects completed a postal questionnaire which included quest
New combustion concepts are being investigated to develop cleaner engines. One of the most promising is partially premixed combustion. The mechanisms of this combustion mode and its impact on performance and emissions have been studied in the previous years. Nevertheless, little research has been done from the point of view of heat transfer. In particular, the influence of the injection strategy o
Non-genetic inheritance, e.g. transgenerational epigenetic effects, has received increasing interest in recent years, particularly in plants. However, most studies have involved a few model species and relatively little is known about wild species in these respects. We investigated transgenerational induced resistance to infection by the devastating oomycete Phytophthora infestans in Solanum physaNon-genetic inheritance, e.g. transgenerational epigenetic effects, has received increasing interest in recent years, particularly in plants.

This study investigates how the spread of boarding passengers between the doors of a train affects the probability of dwell time delays for commuter trains. We make use of automatic passenger count data, collected on a door-by-door level, from commuter trains in the Southern region of Scania in Sweden. The aim of our study is to understand the context in which potential measures to spread out boar
Traditionally well developed in many countries around the world, occupational therapy targeting older people delivers qualified programmes for preventive home visits, community-based rehabilitation, fall prevention, lifestyle redesign, assistive technology provision, etc. Research findings are to an increasing extent being transferred to practice contexts and serve to successively strengthen the q
The picture “Iron in clouds” (above) is a photomontage of an idea by El Lissitzky. It has become known for its structurally daring and futuristic aesthetics. El Lissitzky began the project in 1925. Eight identical horizontal skyscrapers were planned to be centrally located in Moscow. Each skyscraper would consist of a flat three-story, 180-meter-wide L-shaped slab raised 50 meters above the street
Background: Predicting future Alzheimer’s disease (AD)-related cognitive decline among individuals with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is an important task for healthcare. Structural brain imaging as measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) could potentially contribute when making such predictions. It is unclear if the predictive performance of MRI can be
