The aim of this study was to actively integrate expertise of persons living with spina bifida, to explore conditions embedded in their everyday life. This was important because young adults with spina bifida risk not being able to fully participate in the community on equal terms and in accordance with their own preferences. Photovoice, a community-based participatory research approach, was utiliz
Abstract: Sedan 1990-talet finns en till synes motstridig rörelse inom kulturområdet. Dels en tendens att kultursektorn, i dess nuvarande kulturpolitiskt mer traditionella avgränsning, uppfattas som alltmer marginaliserad. Dels att kultur i bredare bemärkelse efterfrågas i allt högre grad och inom allt fler områden. Rörelsen hänger samman med övergripande samhällsförändringar som globaliseringens Since the 1990s, there has been a seemingly contradictory movement in the field of culture. On the one hand, there is a tendency for the cultural sector, in its current cultural-political more traditional demarcation, to be perceived as increasingly marginalized. Secondly, that culture in a broader sense is in increasing demand and in more areas. The movement is connected with overarching societal
Supplemental Instruction/Peer Assisted Study Sessions (SI-PASS) is a peer learning program used worldwide to improve students’ learning and performance in challenging courses in higher education. A bonus effect of the program is the transferable skills that the student leaders may develop when facilitating the study sessions. These student leaders can potentially gain communication, group manageme
Background: There is growing evidence that people with serious mental illness have impaired capacity for processing sensory inputs which affects daily occupation. Although this is known, research regarding the target groups experiences of sensory inputs in daily occupations is lacking. Aim: To investigate the experience of sensory input and strategies used in daily occupations among people with se
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterised by the progressive degeneration of dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. Post-mortem data suggests that the loss of DA markers may long precede the cell death, leaving a window to rescue the DA phenotype. Screening for potential neuroprotective or restorative therapies, however, requires that partial lesions of DA neurons can be
Background: Cellular rejection is most common 3–6 months after heart transplantation while chronic rejection, that is, cardiac allograft vasculopathy and malignancy are the most common causes of death in heart-transplant recipients beyond the third year after transplantation. However, the heart transplantation recipient’s perceived threat of graft rejection has never been explored. Aim: The aim wa
The presented work describes a computational method for carrying out a detailed and thorough examination of the flash temperature rise (i.e. the local’instantaneous’ temperature increase on a contact interface, due to frictional effects) present on the tooth flanks of a polymer gear pair, composed of a combination of POM and PA66 thermoplastics, during a given meshing cycle. The method involves a
AIM: To describe further functional deficiencies of neonatal neutrophils by measuring the expression of C5a receptors.METHODS: C5a uptake was measured using flow cytometry with fluorescein isothiocynate labelled recombinant C5a. The response of neutrophils to stimulation with C5a and fMLP was tested by measuring migration and exocytosis of myeloperoxidase and lactoferrin.RESULTS: C5a mean fluoresc
Housing preferences and housing decision-making in later life are critical aspects of aging in place, which is a public health priority in many Western countries. However, few studies have examined the economic, social, and health factors that guide older adults’ preferences and decisions about where to live, and even less so among older adults with low income or disabilities who may face greater
The responsibilities for delivery of care in Sweden is divided between the regions and the municipalities. The regions run the hospitals and the primary care centres (PCCs) whereas the municipalities are responsible for homecare nursing and nursing homes. The homecare nurses and the doctors they need to seek advice from, thus belong to different organizations/contexts. As more patients with multi-
Huntingtons sjukdom (HS) är en ärftlig fortskridande neurodegenerativ sjukdomsom orsakas av en förlängd CAG sekvens i huntingtin (HTT) genen, vilket leder till motoriska och kognitiva symptom samt personlighetsförändringar. Eftersom den muterade genen och proteinet den kodar för finns uttryckt i kroppens alla celler resulterar det i att även organ utanför hjärnan påverkas. En förhöjd ämnesomsättniHuntington´s disease (HD) is a fatal inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG triplet repeat expansion in the huntingtin (HTT) gene and characterized by cognitive and motoric dysfunctions as well as psychiatric problems. Accumulating evidence, however, suggests altered energy metabolism and a hyper-catabolic state as key features of HD pathology. In clinical HD, body weight has been sh
Purpose of this paper The purpose of this article is to explore themes and challenges in making logistics environmentally sustainable with a complexity theoretical perspective. Design/methodology/approach The research is explorative and based on a cross-sectional design focusing on different entities of supply chains. The study set out with a systematic review and content analysis of articles in

UNLABELLED: Pectobacterium brasiliense ( Pbr) is known to be one of the most virulent Pectobacterium species and is generally widely distributed across the globe, especially known for causing soft rot in potato-tubers and black leg in potato-plants. Currently no treatment mechanism exists, and many studies have focused on alternative treatment approaches such as biocontrol agents. Several studie
ObjectivesTo compare head acceleration between blind football players and non-disabled football players, and between anticipated and unanticipated conditions in blind football players.DesignLaboratory-based exploratory study.MethodsParticipants were ten football players (five blind football, five non-disabled; 80% female). Standardized head perturbations were applied in flexion, extension, lateral
BackgroundIn the event of a major incident, collaboration between the ambulance service, fire brigade and police is common. Effective collaboration requires teamwork, with communication between the three organisations being crucial. Leadership functions should be integrated in a way that leverages organisation-specific capabilities, enabling interprofessional collaboration where diverse profession
Background: This is one of the few European studies of self-management and self-monitoring during the initial two weeks following discharge after open cardiac surgery. Typical outcomes are mortality, morbidity, surgical complications and additional medical treatment. Equally important for enabling person-centred care are the patients’ perspective and main concerns. The aim was to explore feasibili
