Den som använder äldreomsorg möter ofta personal som är utlandsfödd eller har en annan etnicitet än den svenska. Syftet med den här studien var att undersöka äldre hemtjänstanvändares uppfattningar om ”utländsk” personal. Studien baseras på 34 intervjuer med äldre som använder hemtjänst. Resultaten visade att språkproblem var vanliga, men att den övervägande bilden av personalen var positiv, vilke
Aim: To provide a comprehensive description of the clinical features, biochemical characteristics, and outcomes of infants up to 90 days old with COVID-19. Moreover, to assess the severity of the disease and propose an effective management pathway. Methods: Retrospective single-center study spanning three years. Patient data includes age, sex, symptoms, comorbidities, blood and urine test results,
The current landscape of biopharmaceutical production necessitates an ever-growing set of tools to meet the demands for shorter development times and lower production costs. One path towards meeting these demands is the implementation of digital tools in the development stages. Mathematical modelling of process chromatography, one of the key unit operations in the biopharmaceutical downstream proc
In this paper we reflect on how bordering emerge in urban integration processes in relation to two geopolitical belongings. The paper emanates from a performative dialogic event, labelled Lund Irbid Parallel Walk connecting two geopolitical regions: one in Europe through the city of Lund in the South of Sweden, and one in the Middle East that is Irbid located in the North of Jordan. Here, we refle
Previous research on learning to contract and contracting capabilities suggests that firms in interorganizational relationships adopt contractual designs that economize on transaction costs, and over time learn to govern their relationships in a more efficient manner by incrementally aligning contractual terms with transaction attributes based on new experiences made in their relationships. We aug
The size of the authentication tag represents a significant overhead for applications that are limited by bandwidth or memory. Hence, some authenticated encryption designs have a smaller tag than the required privacy level, which was also suggested by the NIST lightweight cryptography standardization project. In the ToSC 2022, two papers have raised questions about the IND-CCA security of AEAD sch
People with a refugee background are at significantly increased risk of mental health difficulties, including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). There is a large evidence base showing that trauma-focused psychological treatments for PTSD are effective. However, the majority of trials do not include refugees and less is known about how refugees respond to treatment. The present report explores
Current treatment guidelines refer to small cell lung cancer (SCLC), one of the deadliest human malignancies, as a homogeneous disease. Accordingly, SCLC therapy comprises chemoradiation with or without immunotherapy. Meanwhile, recent studies have made significant advances in subclassifying SCLC based on the elevated expression of the transcription factors ASCL1, NEUROD1, and POU2F3, as well as o
This presentation provides an overview of the state of the evidence with respect to the prevalence, aetiology, and treatment of pediatric Posttraumatic Stress Disorder with an emphasis on the first-line, recommended treatment - trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapies. The presenter also details findings from his recent research on the relative efficacy of a writing-based form of CBT and EMDR
This chapter offers a reflection on how privacy can be theorized as a distinct form of sphere, namely an atmosphere. Drawing on perspectives from phenomenology and aesthetics, ‘Atmospheres of privacy’ provides a conceptual framework for exploring the embodied and felt experience of privacy in everyday lived spaces. The chapter discusses two cases from contemporary surveillance culture in which dom
This clinical workshop is aimed at child and adolescent mental health professionals. The workshop will focus on two interventions found in all first-line, evidence-based treatments for PTSD: exposure to the trauma memory and reminders, and cognitive restructuring of trauma-related beliefs. Participants will learn about the various way that effective exposure can be achieved through writing, oral r
China's technological growth in recent years has been explosive. Nowadays, Beijing based much of its socio-economic growth on improved technological performance in many areas. What are the main reasons that have enabled China to become a real IT giant? What are the geo-strategic implications of such growth in technology? To what extent can Chinese technical engineering improvements influence the c
The technological push for hydrogen-based steel production has become a flagship project of the Swedish state for advancing its global environmental leadership and becoming the world's first fossil free welfare state. The new production process has the potential to drastically cut emissions in a heavy polluting industry. The plans also entail a drastic upscale in steel production, energy and iron
China is a global leader in the manufacturing of clean energy. Unexpectedly, the severe environmental degradation occurring since the 1990s and the critical air pollution situation are now under control. Many steps still need to be taken in order to fix all the problems linked with the long-term environmental crisis. However, since Xi Jinping’s advent to power in 2012, Beijing has undertaken a sol
Introduction: Anxiety disorders are common and debilitating in children and adolescents. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), delivered both in-person and by the internet (ICBT), is efficacious, but access for young individuals is limited and it remains unclear how to structure the care pathway to maximize benefit.Methods: To inform a fully powered randomized controlled trial (RCT), a pilot RCT wil
Turkey is an exceedingly prosperous nation in terms of water. The Tigris and Euphrates, two of the most famous and iconic watercourses in the Middle East (and beyond), flow from the Anatolian mountains within Turkey's borders. This gives Ankara enormous power in geopolitical terms, especially towards the Arab countries downstream, which have always grappled with worrying water supply crises. Over
Children and adolescents exposed to traumatic events are at high risk of developing posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). With the rare exception of very young children, their PTSD presentations at the symptom level are similar to those of trauma-exposed adults, as are their patterns of psychiatric comorbidity, particularly for adolescents. Untreated, at least a significant proportion will carry o
Since 1988, China's influence in Myanmar, both on a political and financial scale, has been relevant. Following the democratic bend that occurred in former Burma in 2011 and the ensuing opening to global markets, Beijing has partially lost its long-held privileges in the country. In order to maintain a solid geo-economic supremacy in Naypyitaw's internal affairs, since 2006, China has embarked upo
