AimTo describe the aetiology and clinical characteristics of acute peripheral facial palsy (PFP) in children and investigate the utility of the European Federation of Neurological Societies (EFNS) criteria for diagnosing Borrelia-related PFP (BPFP) based on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) testing and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) criteria based on serology.MethodsWe retrospectivel

Texten är en essä utifrån nya översättningar av Ciceros De fato och Senecas De providentia, utgivna på Augusti bokförlag. På svenska heter boken Om ödet/Om försynen. Översättare är Lars Nyberg. I essän berättar jag även om den nya teknik som gjort det möjligt att avkoda de förkolnade bokrullarna i Herculaneum.

For the past months, Finland has been shaken by recurring strike waves, involving hundreds of thousands of workers in all sectors of the economy. The strikes are political, not directed at any particular company or related to bargaining demands. Instead, the primary target is the conservative Finnish government, and its plan to implement a wide set of policies aimed at improving the manufacturing

As of 2023, Human Rights is one of Lund University’s five profile areas. One aim of the Human Rights profile area is to strengthen interlinkages between research and education in the field of human rights and to facilitate collaboration between courses and education programmes at Lund University that explicitly or implicitly focus on human rights. This report is concerned with the latter of those As of 2023, Human Rights is one of Lund University’s five profile areas.

InledningSverige lyfts ofta fram som ett av världens mest jämställda länder, samtidigt som forskning visar att det finns betydande skillnader mellan mäns och kvinnors livsvillkor. Sedan mitten av 1990-talet har jämställdhetsintegrering varit den rådande strategin inom svenska myndigheter och svensk förvaltning för att öka jämställdheten i samhället. Förenklat innebär detta att ett jämställdhetsper

Background: Intra-individual variability (IIV), a measure of variance within an individual's performance, has been demonstrated as metrics of brain responses for neural functionality. However, how mental fatigue modulates IIV remains unclear. Consequently, the development of robust mental fatigue detection methods at the single-trial level is challenging. New methods: Based on a long-duration flan

This paper presents a novel methodological approach, multi-dimensional measure of resource stratifcation in civil society (MMRSC). The method aims at mapping civil society organisations based on diferent types of resources for studying resource stratifcation in civil society. The approach is based on six indicators consisting of economic, political, and media resources, internal and external to ci

Background: The complex management of health needs in multimorbid patients, alongside limited cost data, presents challenges in developing cost-effective patient-care pathways. We estimated the costs of managing 171 dyads and 969 triads in Belgium, taking into account the influence of morbidity interactions on costs. Methods: We followed a retrospective longitudinal study design, using the linked

Aromatic polyamide films form the active layer in reverse osmosis desalination membranes. Despite widespread use of this technology, it suffers from low rejection rates for certain water contaminants and from membrane fouling. Through a better understanding of the fundamental surface chemical processes during reverse osmosis desalination, advances in membrane and material design are expected. The

Reverse osmosis using aromatic polyamide membranes is currently the most important technology for seawater desalination. The performance of reverse osmosis membranes is highly dependent on the interplay of their surface chemical groups with water and water contaminants. In order to better understand the underlying mechanisms of these membranes, we study ultrathin polyamide films that chemically re
