Background: Distal pancreatic resection is associated with a high frequency of postoperative complications. The aim of this study was to characterize the effect of diabetes mellitus (DM) on short-term complications after distal pancreatectomy. Methods: Patients who underwent distal pancreatectomy between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2020 were identified from the Swedish National Pancreatic and P
Dynamic task offloading is essential for real-time robotic applications, enabling them to adapt to fluctuating computational demands and maintain efficiency under changing conditions. This paper introduces a dynamic task offloading framework that incorporates monitoring, decision making, offloading triggering, and performance monitoring to optimize resource usage by offloading real-time tasks to e
Background: Incisional hernia remains the most common complication of open abdominal surgery. The aim was to investigate whether a reinforced tension-line suture combined with standard 4: 1 small-bite closure reduces the 3-year incidence of computed tomography-detected incisional hernia in open colorectal cancer surgery. Methods: Patients aged > 18 years, scheduled for colorectal cancer resection
Background: Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a leading cause of neurodevelopmental impairment in preterm infants, driven by vascular rupture, intraventricular blood accumulation, and secondary injury. Hemolysis releases extracellular hemoglobin (Hb) into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), where it promotes oxidative stress, inflammation, and cytotoxicity. The endogenous Hb-scavenging protein hapto
The aim of this paper is to explore how Edmund Husserl's phenomenological account of empathy, as well as Emmanuel Levinas' critical reception of the same, could contribute with clarity to the debate over the relevance of empathy to social work ethics. I suggest that more attention should be given to the pre-reflective character of empathy, according to Husserl's account. This resonates with Levina

Objective: To investigate whether low daily doses of fluoridated milk, as an adjunct to oral hygiene routines with fluoridated toothpaste, can prevent caries development in enamel and dentine in adolescents. Material and methods: Adolescents (mean age 13 years) at three dental clinics in Sweden were enrolled to a randomised clinical trial (RCT) including baseline and 2-year follow-up examinations.
Rural populations in Europe face health inequalities due to a multitude of factors, including the higher prevalence of multi-morbidity, inadequate access to primary and secondary health care services, and widespread health workforce shortages. Although some challenges are also present in other contexts, the multitude and interconnectedness of these factors induce significant health inequalities. R
Background. Adults with intellectual disability (ID) experience marked mental health inequities, yet population-wide estimates that capture both primary- and specialist-care diagnoses remain scarce. Methods. Using nationwide Swedish registries, including primary care, specialist, inpatient, prescription drug, criminal, and suspicion registers, we included all individuals born in Sweden between 195
The exponential rise in atmospheric CO₂ driven by human activities is accelerating climate change and causing ocean acidification (OA). While the effects of elevated CO₂ on a wide range of marine species have been well documented, the implications of OA for bivalve aquaculture have received comparatively little attention. Using a multi-level meta-analytical approach, we evaluated the impacts of tw
Traditional data sources on bushfire evacuation behaviour, such as quantitative surveys and manual observations have severe limitations. Mining social media data related to bushfire evacuations promises to close this gap by allowing the collection and processing of a large amount of behavioural data, which are low-cost, accurate, possibly including location information and rich contextual informat
Introduction Autistic persons experience problems with movements and body awareness in everyday functionality, expressed in affected movement quality. Yet, there is a knowledge gap about the effects of interventions targeting these aspects in autistic persons. Objective To evaluate effects of Basic Body Awareness Therapy (BBAT) and treatment-as-usual (TAU), compared to TAU alone on movement qualit
The municipal government of São Bernardo do Campo, São Paulo, proposed the construction of the Usina Verde incinerator for urban solid waste in 2012 through a public-private partnership with SBC Valorização de Resíduos Revita e Lara. The plant would burn 3,000 tonnes of waste daily and produce energy. Located in the Alvarenga neighbourhood, the former landfill area, it would replace recycling and
