Background: Neuroimaging with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may assist clinicians in evaluating brain injury and optimising care in comatose adults resuscitated after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). However, contemporary international data on its use are lacking. Aim: The primary aim was to compare the patient characteristics, early postresuscitation care, and neurological outcomes of pa
The eighteenth century marks a watershed in European intellectual history. It witnessed the development of many civil rights ideas that were prerequisites for the emergence of modern political systems. One principle that appears to be supported by numerous empirical examples is that evolving political pluralism fostered the right to express one’s views with a certain degree of freedom. This articl
Objective: To describe the SHIELD cohort in terms of symptoms indicative of early knee osteoarthritis (OA) and to investigate associations between patient characteristics (demographics, activity/injury-related) and these symptoms at 1 (cross-sectional) and 3 years (longitudinal) post anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Method: 106 participants (50 % women, mean [SD] age 25 [5] years
The article contributes to the research of platformisation of everyday life and children’s television use by exploring how 0-3-year-olds’ television viewing on screen media is embedded in daily social practices of families in Sweden. The article examines the research questions: 1) What social practices are organised around young children’s television viewing on screen media? 2) How can these telev
PurposeWe studied the promising Alzheimer biomarker plasma tau phosphorylated at threonine 231 (p-tau231) in a cohort of cardiac arrest patients who survived to intensive care to predict long-term neurological outcomes. We also compared it to total tau (t-tau), which has demonstrated predictive abilities of neurological outcome post-cardiac arrest.MethodsThis observational multicentre cohort study
Positioned within a perceptual approach to European Union (EU) foreign policy, this article explores tensions relating to the resilience of the EU's normative identity, focusing on factors and explanations external to the EU. We engage with EU perceptions amongst external partners theorized as active agents/potential contributors to contestation processes. We focus on the perceived role of the EU
The phenomenon of abused women with mental illness is often unrecognised by staff working within welfare services. This may be explained by staff members' attitudes, insecurity or lack of awareness. Today, there are shortcomings in the knowledge of staff members' experiences and interpretations of abuse against women suffering from mental illness. The aim of this qualitative study was to describe

Background and objectives Cognitive and physical difficulties are common in survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA); both survivors and close family members are also at risk of developing mood disorders. In the UK, dedicated follow-up pathways for OHCA survivors and their family are lacking. A cohort of survivors and family members were surveyed regarding their experience of post-discha
Emotion regulation has been specifically linked to both non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) and attempted suicide. It is also known that self-harm is disproportionally higher (30–68.4%) in forensic samples than in the general population, yet knowledge about the association between emotion regulation and self-harm in forensic settings is scarce. The purpose of this study was to describe emotion regulat
In this paper we seek to reflect on the way in which 'digital cities' later re-emerge as 'smart cities' (both in terms of the approaches and also the actual cities) and what lessons can be learned about the role of ICTs in how they shape urban space. We will focus on looking at how the lack of understanding of the city as a 'place' is often a common factor in the lack of longevity in 'digital city
Individuals are expected to avoid mating with relatives as inbreeding can reduce offspring fitness, a phenomenon known as inbreeding depression. This has led to the widespread assumption that selection will favour individuals that avoid mating with relatives. However, the strength of inbreeding avoidance is variable across species and there are numerous cases where related mates are not avoided. H
Autoantigen discovery is a critical challenge for the understanding and diagnosis of autoimmune diseases. While autoantibody markers in current clinical use have been identified through studies focused on individual disorders, we postulated that a reverse approach starting with a putative autoantigen to explore multiple disorders might hold promise. We here targeted the epidermal protein transglut
LukGH (LukAB) is a potent leukocidin of Staphylococcus aureus that lyses human phagocytic cells and is thought to contribute to immune evasion. Unlike the other bi-component leukocidins of S. aureus, LukGH forms a heterodimer before binding to its receptor, CD11b expressed on professional phagocytic cells, and displays significant sequence variation. We employed a high diversity human IgG1 library
