Background: In Europe, residential care homes (RCHs) rather than hospitals are the most common care facilities for the older adult and the place where most deaths occur in this age group. There is a lack of knowledge regarding end-of-life (EOL) discussions and how they correlate with symptoms and symptom relief. Objective: The aim was to examine the correlation between EOL discussions and symptom

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system caused by myelin-specific autoreactive T cells. We previously demonstrated intestinal barrier disruption and signs of inflammation in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a model of MS. Fecal calprotectin is a disease activity biomarker in inflammatory bowel diseases, released by neutrophils

This study investigates to what extent an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) can encapsulate and protect the secondary structure of a protein during spray drying. The ATPSs contained polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and dextran solutions, in different proportions. A model protein, bovine serum albumin (BSA) and, in some experiments, trehalose were added to the ATPS prior to spray drying. Electron spectroscopy

Electric road systems (ERSs) present a transformative advancement in transportation electrification, offering continuous charging capabilities for electric vehicles (EVs) during travel. This innovation has the potential to significantly mitigate range anxiety by enabling in-motion charging, thereby enhancing the overall efficiency of electric mobility, and reducing the frequency of charging stops

This chapter argues that how the neoliberal notion of ‘attractive space’ emerged as a planning paradigm in the renewal of the Western Harbor district of Malmö, Sweden, unleashed powerful contradictions. The chapter shows that although the urban design of the area was intended to attract affluent residents from the suburbs to the city, people from less affluent and more ethnically diverse areas of

Reflections on the need for Question Zero in AI-kommissionensFärdplan Sverige.

As both public and private organizations are spending resources on fostering entrepreneurship, we have witnessed the emergence of an entrepreneurship industry. Using the entrepreneurship industry in Sweden as a case and example, this chapter provides an explorative analysis the emergence, manifestations and consequences of cultural ideals within this industry. The analysis reveals how the entrepre

Regionaliseringsprosesser og politisk regionalisme har over lengre tid blitt sentrale temaer i akademiske debatter om nasjonalstaters re-skalering og den såkalte misnøyens geografi. Lignende dynamikker er også til stede i Norge, hvor regionreformen som ble gjennomført i 2020 møtte motstand langs sentrum-periferi-linjer. Slike fenomener stiller spørsmål om hvordan ulike aktører bidrar til regionersRegionalisation processes and regionalist contestation have been the subjects of long-standing debates on state rescaling and political geographies of discontent. Similar dynamics are also present in Norway, where a recent regional reform has faced opposition along centre-periphery lines. These phenomena raise questions about how different actors discursively enact the institutionalisation and/or

Purpose: to propose two enhancements for the European Union’s Circular Material Use rate (CMU): inclusion of Preparation for Reuse (PfR) flows and enhanced reproducibility across lower levels of analysis. Methods: PfR flows are added to the material flow Sankey Diagram. The Local Circularity Rate (LCR) is based in the CMU and is broke down in three waste-related ratios: recovered-to-treated (RCV-t

This short playful piece is a result of my participation in the Collaborative Foresight Cycle on the Futures of AI and Sustainability. Hosted by Media Evolution in Malmö between May and June 2022, the Cycle brought together a broad range of actors to co-create and explore the future possibilities of AI in relation to sustainability. This piece is a response to the hopelessness which has arisen due

Using the duplex Doppler system, blood velocity was measured serially at two sites of the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) and in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) during the first 3 days of life, in eight term, small for gestational age (SGA) infants (birthweight, 2179 +/- 230 g; mean +/- S.D.), and 13 term, appropriate for gestational age (AGA) infants (3376 +/- 441 g). All infants in both groups h

As the introductory chapter sets out, this volume critically interrogates the EU as a global actor and its normative power in global politics as part of the 2013 European Research Day of the Centre for European Research at Gothenburg University. This chapter will conclude this interrogation by providing a Copenhagen reflection on the EU as a global actor within the context of the Normative Power A
