Upplevelser hos människor som söker asyl eller flyktingstatus präglas av olika prövningar och svåra upplevelser innan, under och efter migrationen, vilket gör dessa individer mer mottagliga för att utveckla psykisk ohälsa. Denna scoping review syftade till att kartlägga och utforska relationen mellan postmigrationsstressorer (såsom utmaningar relaterade till legal status, ekonomi, boendesituation,Experiences of people seeking refuge and asylum are characterized by diverse adversities before, during, and after migration, making these individuals more susceptible to developing mental ill health. This scoping review intended to map and explore the relation between post-migration stressors (such as struggles related to legal status, finances, housing, and discrimination in the context of reset

I denna uppsats har jag genom ett kvalitativt, sociologiskt tillvägagångssätt undersökt hur och varför de anställda tvingas sälja känslor och identitet inom lågkvalificerad service, med inriktning på försäljning. Syftet är att ifrån ett symboliskt interaktionistiskt perspektiv, kritiskt belysa problem som uppstår i samband med att vi bygger ett samhälle på ekonomiska principer. Hur individer genom

In this paper, the moral duty towards asylum seekers and refugees in the EU is highlighted, from the perspectives of Universalism and Communitariarism. Due to different levels of safety and conditions related to being granted asylum in EU member states, the attractiveness of these states for asylum seekers and refugees to seek protection differ substantially. The implementation of the Dublin II Co

Objectives: To explore availability, prices and affordability of essential medicines for diabetes and hypertension treatment in private pharmacies in three provinces of Zambia. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 99 pharmacies across three Zambian provinces. Methods were based on a standardized methodology by the World Health Organization and Health Action International. Availabilit

Besvär från rörelseorganen, framför allt från rygg och nacke är en av de vanligaste anledningarna till sjukfrånvaro i västvärlden. Patienter med dessa besvär utgör en stor andel av de som söker primärvården där fysioterapi ofta är första linjens vård. Rygg och nacksmärta kan orsaka nedsatt funktion och aktivitetsförmåga vilket ofta innebär en betydande förlust av livskvaliteten samt ekonomiska konPatients with back and neck pain are frequently seen in primary care, where they are directed to physiotherapy as first-line treatment. The condition affects both the individual, by causing pain and disability, and society, because of high costs caused by work disability and health care consumption. Clinicians need tools to identify, at an early stage, patients at risk of poor outcome, in order to

Air pollution and climate change have a significant impact on human health and well-being and contribute to the onset and aggravation of allergic rhinitis and asthma among other chronic respiratory diseases. In Westernized countries, households have experienced a process of increasing insulation and individuals tend to spend most of their time indoors. These sequelae implicate a high exposure to i

INTRODUCTION: Current pharmacological treatments of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have limited efficacy. Although the diagnosis is based on psychopathological criteria, it is frequently accompanied by somatic comorbidities and perhaps "accelerated biological aging," suggesting widespread physical concomitants. Such physiological comorbidities may affect core PTSD symptoms but are rarely th

PURPOSE: To analyze the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of cataract surgery complicated by a dropped nucleus. SETTING: Patients who have received cataract surgery in 18 European countries. DESIGN: Retrospective cross-sectional register-based study. METHODS: Data from the European Registry of Quality Outcomes for Cataract and Refractive Surgery (EUREQUO) were analyzed. The EUREQUO contains pr

Det är hög tid att ifrågasätta flygnormen och skapa nya förutsättningar och vanor kring resande som blir bestående, skriver Sara Ullström och Kimberly Nicholas vid LUCSUS, Lunds universitets centrum för studier av uthållig samhällsutveckling.

A green route for the production of 6-carbon polymer building blocks 6-hydroxyhexanoic acid, adipic acid and ϵ-caprolactone from 1,6-hexanediol, a hydrogenation product of biobased 5-hydroxymethylfurfural is reported. Gluconobacter oxydans oxidized 1,6-hexanediol completely to adipic acid, and selectively at pH 6-7 to 6-hydroxyhexanoic acid, which was converted to ϵ-caprolactone by catalytic cycli

Background: The integration of first- and second-generation bioethanol processes has the potential to accelerate the establishment of second-generation bioethanol on the market. Cofermenting pretreated wheat straw with a glucose-rich process stream, such as wheat grain hydrolysate, in a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation process could address the technical issues faced during the biolo

Background: New emerging evidence has demonstrated the need for effective interventions to help people living with an acquired brain injury (ABI). Evidence on cost-effectiveness, which can help inform use of limited resources, is scarce in this area and therefore the purpose of this systematic review is to critically appraise and consolidate the current evidence on economic evaluations of ABI reha

Technology of 3D printing is opening the possibility for small-scale production in quantities between ten and several hundred pieces. The technology of adding material enables the production of complex and integrated functional concepts in a single-pass process, which consequently potentially reduces the need for assembly operations. Design approaches and manufacturing processing are not mastered

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a leading cause of disability world-wide (World Health Organization, 2008). Treatment of OCD is a specialized field whose aim is recovery from illness for as many patients as possible. The evidence-based psychotherapeutic treatment for OCD is specialized cognitive behavior therapy (CBT, NICE, 2005, Koran and Simpson, 2013). However, these treatments are not a

Background and purpose: Few studies on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) only head and neck radiation treatment planning exist, and none using a generally available software. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of absorbed dose for head and neck synthetic computed tomography data (sCT) generated by a commercial convolutional neural network-based algorithm. Materials and methods: For

Background: For up to 50% of adolescents experiencing PTSD, the course of their illness is further complicated by co-occurring substance use. Despite this, evidence-based integrated treatment options for adolescents with this comorbidity remain sparse. To address this gap, we are conducting an RCT examining the efficacy of exposure-based therapy for co-occurring PTSD and substance use among adoles
