Objectives: To describe changes in Swedish primary care physicians’ use of, attitudes and intentions toward digital tools in patient care between 2019 and 2022. Design: A survey using a validated questionnaire measuring physician’s intentions to use digital tools based on the theory of planned behavior. Setting: Sample of primary health care centers in southern Sweden. Subjects: Primary care physi

In past human populations, atherosclerosis has been identified in mummies from different regions of the world, and from a range of chronological periods (for extensive reviews see Chapters 3 and 4). This current study from Sweden aims to contribute to the limited evidence for atherosclerosis associated with human skeletal remains by presenting examples of atherosclerosis in another part of the bod

Objective: Ovarian carcinoma (OvCa) is more common in the elderly, but also affects the adolescent and young adult (AYA) generation, which refers to those aged 15–39 years. Although the characteristics of OvCa may differ between AYAs and non-AYAs, limited information is currently available on differences in prognostic factors. Therefore, we herein investigated prognostic factors for and the progno

Berlin is a major tourist destination, a world city with a dramatic history. Many shelf meters have been written about it, not least combinations of travel guide and history book. The latest contribution of this kind is John Kampfner’s in Search of Berlin: The Story of a Reinvented City (London: Atlantic Books 2023, 400 pages). Kampfner is a British author, journalist and documentary maker with a

Background: Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) typically overexpress somatostatin receptors. By radiolabelling somatostatin analogues with a positron-emitting radionuclide (68Ga-DOTATOC or 68Ga-DOTATATE), these tumours can be detected with high sensitivity and specificity using somatostatin receptor positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT).Aim: To enhance knowledge about NETs imaged wi

Both straight and curved carbon fibers are widely used in various commercial gas diffusion layer (GDL) fabrications. The effect of the different carbon fiber curvatures on two-phase flow dynamics within the cathode GDLs of proton exchange membrane fuel cells remains unclear. In this study, we investigate liquid transport in three types of GDLs with varying fiber curvatures using the two-phase volu

This article examines nuclear imaginaries in the Arabic-speaking Middle East. It situates people from the Arab world into nuclear thought, looking at how the atomic age rapidly became part of everyday lives. Embracing the idea that reality and fiction are not only deeply intertwined but also co-constitutive, it analyses everyday engagements with the nuclear condition in the aftermath of the bombin

This article addresses physics teachers’ views about physics teaching in upper-secondary school. Their views have been investigated nationwide through a web-based questionnaire. The questionnaire has been developed based on several published instruments and is part of an ongoing project on the role of mathematics in physics teaching at upper-secondary school. The selected part of the results from

Let G be a Lie group equipped with a left-invariant semi-Riemannian metric. Let K be a semisimple subgroup of G generating a left-invariant conformal foliation F of codimension two on G. We then show that the foliation F is minimal. This means that locally the leaves of F are fibres of a complex-valued harmonic morphism. In the Riemannian case, we prove that if the metric restricted to K is biinva

Ground-based geophysical surveys were conducted at eight mine-tailings repositories during 2021 and 2022 to help preparing an inventory of potential sources of critical raw materials in mine-waste. Geophysical methods included ERT, DCIP, RMT, and tTEM. In this study, we show results obtained on two of the sites as an example. Integration of models of electrical properties, geological observations,

In this conceptual article, we argue that artificial intelligence (AI) systems are contributing to the generation of an environment of affordances for everyday information practices through which they exert influence on people and the planet in ways that often are left unrecognised. We illustrate our insights by focusing on the practices of information seeking in everyday life, suggesting that the

Patterns of lead and other trace metals were examined in 122 Eurasian eagle owls Bubo bubo found dead in Sweden in the period 1978–2013. Environmental lead (Pb) has decreased over recent decades from reduced anthropogenic emissions but mortality by Pb poisoning is still frequently reported for avian raptors and scavengers exposed to Pb ammunition. One objective here was to determine if Pb concentr

Generally speaking, Computer based numerical hydrological models have been playing a very central role during the last decades in dealing with water resources related problems. Various kinds of conceptual, physical and stochastical models have been developed. Perhaps the most important contribution of those models is the ability of simplifying and schematizing a complex problem in the nature and s
