Since the ratification of the Kyoto Protocol, the signing of the Paris Agreement, the adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals, and the New Urban Agenda, there has been a major growth of urban involvement in addressing sustainability challenges. This has sparked a thriving era for city governments around the world to engage with urban experimentation that aims to enable transformations toward
This study evaluated the adaptation of relapse prevention treatment, originally for substance use, to address problematic gaming in children and adolescents. The goal was to understand the feasibility of this treatment in child and adolescent mental health services from the clinicians’ perspective. Six clinicians, four women and two men aged 37–47 with 4–20 years of work experience, were interview
Simultaneous digital breast tomosynthesis and mechanical imaging (DBTMI), a novel screening approach, combines anatomic DBT with functional analysis of the stress distribution on the compressed breast by mechanical imaging (MI). Preliminary studies suggest potential to reduce false positive findings. DBTMI requires to align DBT and MI images. In this study, we have analyzed robustness to alignment
This article offers an overview of the IsiXhosa Intellectual Traditions Digital Archive, which hosts digitized texts and images of early isiXhosa newspapers and books from 1870-1914. The archive offers new opportunities for a range of research across multiple fields, and responds to debates around the importance of African intellectual traditions and their indigenous language sources in generating
Purpose: This study aimed to examine how young people living with Home Mechanical Ventilation experience the transition from childhood to young adulthood in relation to everyday life, perceived health and transition into adult professional healthcare.

The “alla kan blomstra” (“everyone can flourish”) vision is a framework adopted by Åland’s government that attempts to institutionalize integrative inner-outer transformation within governmental structures, policies and operations. It aims to merge conventional external approaches (e.g., traditional ecological services and technologies) with inner-led change (e.g., addressing collective perceptio

Nanotechnology is an evolving scientific field that has allowed the manufacturing of materials with novel physicochemical and biological properties, offering a wide spectrum of potential applications. Properties of nanoparticles that contribute to their usefulness include their markedly increased surface area in relation to mass, surface reactivity and insolubility, ability to agglomerate or chang
Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund I Sverige erbjuds samtliga gravida kvinnor ett rutinultraljud vid 18-20 graviditetsveckor. Syftet med undersökningen är att fastställa antalet foster, uppskatta graviditetslängd samt granska fosteranatomin för att upptäcka eventuella missbildningar. En del missbildningar kan man se med ultraljud, men långtifrån alla. Att redan under graviditeten känna till om The aim was to evaluate first trimester nuchal translucency (NT) measurement for detection and risk assessment of fetal malformations and fetal loss. 39 572 pregnant women were randomised to either a routine ultrasound scan at 12-14 weeks including NT measurement or to a routine scan at 18-20 weeks. Prenatal diagnosis of major congenital heart malformations was compared between the two groups. In
In this work a compact fluorosensor has been built for point-monitoring and imaging applications. The instrument has been applied in fluorescence studies on green vegetation and on malignant tissue. The instrument is based on a violet diode laser, an integrated spectrometer and optical fibers for light delivery and collection of the fluorescence signal. This combination makes the system very compa
Background:Preparing for the end of life is believed to help mitigate emotional suffering for both patients and their caregivers. However, empirical evidence on the emotional benefits of feeling prepared for death remains limited.Aim:This study uses data from the international iLIVE project to examine how perceived end-of-life preparedness is associated with emotional suffering among patients and

Popular Abstract in Swedish Mesenkymala stamceller (MSC) kan isoleras från en rad olika vävnader i kroppen, bland annat från benmärg. De kan differentiera till ben, brosk, fett- och bindvävnad men deras exakt roll i kroppen är inte väl känd. Den senaste forskningen tyder dock på att en av deras huvuduppgifter är att stödja blodbildningen som sker av blod- eller hematopoetiska stamceller. Man Primary mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) play a central role in bone marrow (BM) and during haematopoiesis. Yet, the exact phenotype and spatial distribution of primary MSC in the human BM are unknown. Their cultured progeny are promising candidates for clinical applications. MSC cultures however, are heterogeneous and, while critical for clinical applications, their exact composition is not known. W
This chapter ". . . looks at a problem that is an important effect of systemic features: the problems of defining clear boundaries between different types of actors. Richard Langlais and Sharon Rider study the boundary between research performed by public universities and companies basing their technology on scientific research. They use the concept "science machines" to depict those systems of so
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den arbetsrehabilitering som traditionellt erbjuds personer med psykisk funktionsnedsättning kan beskrivas som en trappa där varje steg består av olika åtgärder för att öka personernas arbetsförmåga. Målet är att personerna successivt skall bli friskare, öka sin funktionsnivå och utveckla fler färdigheter innan de kan ta steget ut till ett konkurrensutsatt arbete. För pIn the light of the limited research on the subject of Individual Placement and Support (IPS) in a Swedish context, this thesis has contributed with knowledge of the effectiveness and experiences of IPS among persons with severe mental illness (SMI) living in Sweden. The thesis has also provided information about the work motivation among those persons with SMI who seek vocational support by IPS.

Background: Adolescents are increasingly using classical psychedelics, yet little is known about how psychedelics use is related to their mental health. Emerging evidence suggests that adolescents may be more vulnerable to adverse outcomes in relation to psychedelic use compared to adults.
