Informal carers in paid work are known as working carers (WKCs). This combination of care and work is particular to them, and their support needs may differ from other informal carers. This exploratory study describes the caregiving-related factors associated with experiencing caregiving as demanding and a decreased ability to work in WKCs. The Swedish National Carer Survey was conducted in a stra

Wind turbines are important for achieving renewable energy goals, but present a considerable threat to wildlife, especially birds and bats. This study reports 41 confirmed collisions of GPS-tracked Red Kites (Milvus milvus) with wind turbines across Europe (2017–2024). We compared environmental and turbine-specific factors during collisions and non-collision movements within 500 m of turbines. Col

The aim of this pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) was to assess the feasibility of a moderate intensity cycling intervention in persons with lower limb lymphedema (LLL) and to explore its potential benefits. Thirty-three participants were included for an 8-week intervention of home-based exercise and randomized to an intervention group (IG) with cycling 3-5 times a week, 30-60 minutes, or to

The continuous increase in global energy consumption has led to a greater focus on the energy required for heating buildings. This thesis presents a techno-economic model for analysing low-temperature district heating networks coupled with a geothermal heat source. The model was used to analyse an existing system in Denmark with 15 connected single-family detached houses. Each of the houses has a

The identification of jets originating from quarks and gluons, often referred to as quark/gluon tagging, plays an important role in various analyses performed at the Large Hadron Collider, as Standard Model measurements and searches for new particles decaying to quarks often rely on suppressing a large gluon-induced background. This paper describes the measurement of the efficiencies of quark/gluo

Aims: Individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are typically diagnosed at a young age and exposed to lifelong hyperglycaemia. Despite improved metabolic control, the risk of vascular complications remains challenging. However, some individuals remain free from developing major diabetic complications even after long duration, so-called “escapers”. This study investigated transcriptomic biomarkers lin

Background: Paleolithic Diet Fraction (PDF) and Paleolithic Diet Score (PDS) are both measures of how closely a food intake conforms to a Paleolithic dietary pattern. PDF is calculated directly from an individual’s absolute food intake and PDS is an aggregated score based on an individual’s food intake relative to a population. Both are inversely associated with all-cause and cause-specific mortal

We report the first incorporation of S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP) into micellar systems of the poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO-PPO-PEO) triblock copolymer Pluronic® F127 for nitric oxide (NO) delivery and show how sodium taurodeoxycholate (NaTDC) modulates F127 micellization and gelation. Using differential scanning calorimetry, small-angle X-ray scat

Background and purpose — Musculoskeletal deformities in cerebral palsy (CP) may be surgically treated, but population-based studies of postoperative complications after these surgeries are rare. The aim of our study was to assess the risk of complications following elective orthopedic surgery in children and young adults with CP. Methods — We performed a register-based cohort study of 1,514 indivi

Endovascular therapy (EVT) has proven benefit for patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (LVO) strokes with moderate-to-severe deficits, but its value in patients presenting 6-24 hours after onset with mild symptoms (NIH Stroke Scale score ≤5) remains unclear. This journal club article examines a retrospective analysis of CLEAR registry data comparing EVT with medical management

Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is frequently overlooked and untreated due to insufficient awareness and expertise in mental health settings. We developed a supervisor-supported online education programme to train clinicians in the assessment and treatment of young people with BDD and evaluated its feasibility and preliminary effects. Thirty clinicians working within child and adolescent mental hea

Introduction: There is a lack of comprehensive data on complications following sinus surgery (SS) in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of SS-related complications in CRSwNP patients and examine patient characteristics, predictors of revision surgery, healthcare use, and associated costs using secondary care data from Swedis

Organic pollutants in aquatic environments pose a threat to ecosystems and human health, a challenge that requires urgent resolution. This urgent threat highlights the need for the development of efficient technologies for pollutant detection and degradation in environmental protection. This study presents the successful fabrication of a composite nanomaterial consisting of Ag nanoparticle-decorat

Inappropriate bricklaying techniques can result in extruded mortar joints, which may partially fill the air gaps within brick veneer timber frame walls. This leads to an unintended connection or “bridge” between the brick masonry cladding and its adjacent layer (such as insulation or weather-resistant barriers). This bridging effect compromises the capillary break function of the air gap, allowing

BackgroundHeart failure (HF) and arterial hypertension (AH) are strongly associated with obesity, with a linear relationship to increasing body mass index (BMI). However, some individuals with obesity do not exhibit signs of HF or AH.PurposeThis study aimed to compare, for the first time in a large population-based cohort, individuals with obesity who have normal left ventricular function and remo

Introduction: Early-life determinants of middle-age cardiovascular health are poorly understood. This study examines associations of BMI and physical fitness in male adolescents with cardiovascular health measured by the Life's Essential 8 score in middle age. Methods: A population-based cohort study linked BMI and physical fitness from the Swedish Military Conscription Register (men conscripted f
