An emissions barrier can be used to stop the spread of harmful emissions from building into the indoor air

Unsatisfactory indoor air quality (IAQ) may be due to the spread of chemical or biological compounds from building into the indoor air. One way to avoid the problem is to attach an emissions barrier indoors onto the surfaces from which the emissions are being spread (floor, walls, ceiling). Here we report on the use of the surface emissions trap (cTrap), an emissions barrier developed at Lund Univ

Primary health care policy advocacy in Europe : A cross-sectional study of family medicine associations

Background: Policy advocacy (PA) in European healthcare has a strong tradition promoting evidence-based policies. Key organisations, including the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies, the WHO’s Evidence-Informed Policy Network, and the OECD play pivotal roles in integrating research into policymaking. Objectives: To assess the involvement of European Family Medicine (FM) Associatio

Prognostic importance of exercise electrocardiography in patients with suspected microvascular disease

Background Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is associated with a poor prognosis but is difficult to diagnose non-invasively. In a recent paper, ST-segment depression on exercise-ECG was found to have a very high positive predictive value (PPV) for CMD in a highly selected group of patients. Objectives In the present study of chest pain patients, we used myocardial perfusion single photon e

A conceptual health economic modelling framework to assess the cost-effectivenesof molecular target–driven treatment regimens in oncology

Background and purpose: Molecularly targeted cancer therapies challenge conventional health economic evaluation frameworks that are structured around tumour-specific indications, comparators, and trial designs. Existing models often rely on pooled estimates from heterogeneous early-phase evidence or single-indication analyses, creating uncertainty for reimbursement decision-makers. We propose a co

MYTH 11 : Transition to sustainable consumption is primarily driven by consumer demand

This chapter interrogates the widespread belief that individual purchasing choices are the main force behind sustainability transitions. This myth rests on three assumptions: that consumers drive markets while businesses and governments merely react, that individuals are defined primarily as buyers and that deliberate consumer decisions can alone create sustainable demand. The chapter shows how th

Ice Core Studies

This chapter summarizes the processes that are responsible for cosmogenic radionuclide variations in ice cores and the results that can be inferred from these records. The chapter starts with the production in the atmosphere caused by the influx of galactic cosmic ray particles and its modulation by the solar and geomagnetic field. Subsequently, the geochemical behavior of cosmogenic radionuclides

In Transit Letters: Between the South Atlantic and the Baltic Sea

In the summer of 2022, Iury started an exchange of handwritten letters with her then supervisor Adriana Schneider Alcure and with PhD candidate Ian Calvet, both artist researchers basedat the Theatre Department of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The written letters were an attempt to connect personal, socio-political and artistic experiences and scholarship produced in the Global

Kvinnor i avlönat husligt arbete

Domestic service has historically been one of the commonest forms of employment for women. In this chapter, we pose the question whether paid jobs in domestic service offered any career opportunities for women. A point of departure for the chapter is the existence and possible meanings of various occupational titles in the sector, for example ‘servant’, ‘housemaid’ and ‘housekeeper’. Our investiga

eSports Fan Identity Consumer and Live Game Watching Behavior : Professional Player Fan Identity Perspective

This study investigated whether the Point of attachment (POA) theory can be used to measure the consumption intention on go and watch offline eSports games. The admiration for players, social interaction, and on-site consumption requirements for viewing offline eSports competitions are prioritized. In addition, eSports fans in various regions may have distinct consumption concepts and consumption

Varför öppnar vi oss? Effekten av lyssnarreaktioner på självutlämnande i tidiga interaktioner

Att förstå vad som får individer att dela personlig information i tidiga möten är centralt inom forskning kring interpersonell kommunikation och relationsutveckling. Denna studie undersökte hur olika typer av respons påverkar individers benägenhet att fortsätta självutlämna i samtal mellan personer som inte känner varandra. Med utgångspunkt i den interpersonella intimitetsmodellen (Reis & ShavUnderstanding what encourages individuals to share personal information in early interactions is central to research on interpersonal communication and relationship development. The present study examined how different response types influence individuals’ willingness to continue self-disclosing during conversations with unfamiliar others. Drawing on the Interpersonal Process Model of Intimacy (Re

Marijuana smoking during pregnancy alters placenta morphology in BALB/c mice

IntroductionPrevious work from our group demonstrated that pregnant mice exposed to marijuana smoke presented reduced fetal and neonatal outcomes including reduced birthweight and increased placental weight. To further characterize the possible placental mechanisms underlying these observations, the present study evaluated placental morphology, function and molecular markers in the same experiment

Mimicry and Mobility : Exploring the Travels and Assemblages of Work-Related Crime Policy

This article examines the transnational transfer and adaptation of the concept ‘work-related crime’ (WRC) in the Nordic context, focusing on its movement from Norway to Sweden. Drawing on interviews and document analysis, and employing the policy mobilities literature as a theoretical lens, it discusses how the WRC concept was introduced in Sweden at a time of policy-related uncertainty. The artic
