The rapid growth of cities requires effective management of transport demand and restructuring of transport systems to address the needs of growing urban populations in an environmentally, socially and economically sustainable way. In recent years, car sharing has emerged as an alternative to owning cars in cities, which has potential to bring environmental gains and address social considerations.
INTRODUCTION: Hip and knee osteoarthritis is a leading cause of disability worldwide. Currently, the course of deterioration in pain and physical functioning in individuals with osteoarthritis is difficult to predict. Factors such as socioeconomic status and comorbidity contribute to progression of osteoarthritis, but clear associations have not been established. There is a need for early identifi
En eftermiddag i juli 2011 besökte jag yrkesfiskaren Nils i hamnen. Vi talade länge om hur han kommit att börja med yrkesfiske och om hans dröm som nyligen blivit verklighet, att sälja fångsten från en egen fiskvagn i hamnen. Han hade även många idéer om hur fisket kunde utvecklas samtidigt som framtidsbilden var dystopisk. I en ekonomi där yrkesfisket har minskat med åttio procent på nittio år, m
Psychosocial treatments improve outcome in Pediatric bipolar disorder (PBD), but few are developed specifically for adolescents and none has been evaluated in Europe. This study evaluates family-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy for adolescents (ages 13-18) with PBD in routine psychiatric care in Sweden, adapted for teenagers in a European setting from the Child and Family-Focused Cognitive Beh
Introduction TCP-25 gel is intended for use in treatment of wound infection and inflammation. Current local therapies for wounds have limited efficacy to prevent infections and there are no wound treatments available today that target the excessive inflammation that often hampers wound healing in both acute and chronic wounds. There is therefore a high medical need for new therapeutic alternatives
The mucolytic human gut microbiota specialist Akkermansia muciniphila is proposed to boost mucin-secretion by the host, thereby being a key player in mucus turnover. Mucin glycan utilization requires the removal of protective caps, notably fucose and sialic acid, but the enzymatic details of this process remain largely unknown. Here, we describe the specificities of ten A. muciniphila glycoside hy
Urban green spaces are important for climate change adaptation, in particular to reduce the negative impacts of heat waves on human well-being. However, in growing cities urban green spaces are under pressure due to increasing housing demand and densification. Municipalities face the challenge of addressing both the housing shortage and the need for climate change adaptation on limited space. This
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSEAcquiring and interpreting quantitative myelin-specific MRI data at an individual level is challenging because of technical difficulties and natural myelin variation in the population. To overcome these challenges, we used multiecho T2 myelin water imaging (MWI) to create T2 metric healthy population atlases that depict the mean and variation of myelin water fraction (MWF), a
BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis remains a leading infectious cause of death in resource-limited settings. Effective treatment is the cornerstone of tuberculosis control, reducing mortality, recurrence and transmission. Supporting treatment adherence through facility-based observations of medication taking can be costly to providers and patients. Digital adherence technologies (DATs) may facilitate treatm
Migration has a global impact, but it also intersects with local and nationalissues. In 2020, 281 million people lived outside their country of birth or citizenship, according to the United Nations Global Migration Database. The number of persons displaced across international borders is increasing due to conflict, persecution, and violence. Most of the world’s refugees and asylum seekers live i
Studiens syfte har varit att genom en litteratursammanställning ta reda på hur forskningsområdet har sett att Covid-19-pandemin kan bidra till varaktiga förändringar i resande och transporter. Flera trender etablerades eller förstärktes under pandemin, men det är svårt att med säkerhet avgöra om de kommer hålla i sig. Ett problem som vi har sett är att det finns för lite data för att utveckla nya
A well-defined terminology of fire-related variables is important for correct analyses and supporting knowledge-based decisions regarding the evaluation of building fires at the European level. After developing an overview of current practices for fire statistics in Part I, the terminology used and the data collected by the EU Member States and eight other countries regarding fire incidents, prope
Numerous studies have discussed the importance of multilevel governance for enhancing climate action at the urban level. However, there remains limited knowledge on the proliferation of multilevel climate governance in the Global South. Addressing this gap, this study aims to explore the implementation of multilevel climate governance at the urban level through a case study analysis of three India
Syfte: Att undersöka vilka effekter en kombination av limiterade utgåvor och co-branding har på konsumenters varumärkesattityder och köpintention. Teoretiskt perspektiv: Studiens teoretiska referensram utgår från Aakers tolkning av brand equity model. Vidare tillämpas ytterligare teorier för att komplettera modellen om brand equity, bland annat teorin om utbud och efterfrågan samt conformity theor
