Background: Cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction is a major complication in a large proportion of patients with long coronavirus disease (LC). As one of the most typical phenotypes of cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is commonly observed as a sequelae of coronavirus disease infection. Objective: This study aimed to develop and test a 24-hour el

AIMS: Previous studies show inconsistencies in vasovagal syncope (VVS) symptoms and haemodynamic responses across age and sex groups, with limited evaluation of tilt test results. This study comprehensively examines differences in triggers, prodromal and syncopal symptoms, and head-up tilt test (HUTT) responses among VVS patients by age and sex providing new insights.METHODS AND RESULTS: We analys

BACKGROUND: Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the most common intensive care unit-acquired infection, yet its diagnosis is complicated by the lack of reliable diagnostic criteria and validated biomarkers. Due to the compartmentalisation of the immune response, host proteins in respiratory tract samples are more likely than serum proteins to accurately identify VAP. However, a reliable bioma

The recent Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) sets ambitious goals but no clear pathway for how zero loss of important biodiversity areas and halting human-induced extinction of threatened species will be achieved. We assembled a multi-taxa tracking dataset (11 million geopositions from 15,845 tracked individuals across 121 species) to provide a global assessment of space use of

Abstract in German: Aus der Sicht der byzantinischen Quellen scheint ein religiöser Konfrontationsansatz mit dem Islam oft zu fehlen; dort werden die Muslime als “Araber”, “Sarazenen”, “Ismaeliten” oder “Hagarener” genannt, wie man die vorislamischen Araber auch bezeichnet hatte. Es ist damit nicht ganz klar, wie die universalistische Ansprüche des frühen Islam von Byzanz aus zu verstehen sind. EsByzantine sources often seem to ignore the religious cause of controversy with Islam: they refer to Muslims as “Arabs”, “Saracens”, “Ismaelites” or “Hagarenes”, names which had already been used to denote the pre-Islamic Arabs. The Byzantine point of observation on the universalist claims of Early Islam is, thus, not quite clear. There are, however, several clues to the assumption that the early C

A novel metaheuristic algorithm called the reptile search algorithm (RSA) was introduced in conjunction with artificial neural fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) for the estimation of standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI). The model was tested in three different climates: arid and super-cold, semi-arid and cold, and semi-arid and moderate climate across Iran by combining meteorolo

Groundwater is the general source of drinking water in the Shimabara Peninsula, Nagasaki, Japan, and consequently, occurring nitrate nitrogen (NO3-N) pollution in the groundwater is a significant problem. Although various countermeasures have been implemented, nitrate nitrogen concentrations remain serious. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate effects of different potentially effective counterme

The ringing and controlling of previously marked birds are invaluable tools for studying the survival, productivity, and movement of birds. To maximize the value of ringing data, it is important to minimize any potential biases. For some species, such as nestbox-breeding owls, ringing records are typically heavily skewed toward females because they generally are easier to catch. The use of traditi

Data on marine microfossil assemblage composition have multiple applications. Initially, they were primarily used for (chrono)stratigraphy and palaeoecology, but these data are now also widely used to study evolutionary and ecological processes, such as past biodiversity and its links with environmental dynamics, or to provide a basis for conservation efforts and biomonitoring. The large range of

Integrative lighting promoting circadian health has recently gained attention due to the increasing awareness of non-visual effects of light and advancements in lighting technology. However, reaching both visual and non-visual circadian targets in buildings may be challenging when considering energy use. Despite growing interest, most studies have focused on health benefits and individual design p

Achieving the dual goals of increasing visual comfort and well-being in the built environment while minimizing resource demand is a significant challenge. Since 2023, Subtask D “Case Studies” of IEA SHC Task 70/EBC Annex 90 “Low Carbon, High Comfort Integrated Lighting,” has been addressing this challenge head-on. Subtask D aims to advance the wide-scale adoption of environmentally performing dayl

Att skriva på engelska är en avgörande färdighet för studenter inom högre utbildning – oavsett ämnesområde. Trots utvecklingen av AI och digitala skrivverktyg är studentens egen förmåga att uttrycka sig i skrift fortfarande central. Det här kapitlet introducerar viktiga akademiska skrivfärdigheter på engelska och visar hur dessa med lärares hjälp kan utvecklas redan under gymnasietiden.

Introduction Emerging research indicates that integrated treatment of co-occurring post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and substance use disorder can be effective among adolescents and young people. However, various barriers exist to young people accessing evidence-based treatments. Telehealth offers an opportunity to address these barriers and provide a scalable and accessible alternative to in

In Sweden, the pedagogical training of doctoral students varies significantly across universities. While most institutions include at least one mandatory course in higher education teaching and learning, some programs lack this requirement entirely. Whether doctoral students are encouraged or even allowed to take multiple pedagogical courses also varies greatly.

This article explores the rise and fall of social investment (SI) practices in Swedish local government to examine how public-sector reforms are enacted—and undone—in practice. While SI initially promised more preventive, evidence-based and cost-efficient welfare, its local implementation through SI Funds (SIFs) reveals a more complex story.
