The aim of this study was to ascertain experiences and perceptions among physiotherapists (PTs) in Sweden regarding the concept of work ability as well as their perspectives of their professional role in work ability assessments. We conducted an in-depth interview study with four male and twelve female physiotherapists working in the field of occupational health care, orthopaedics, primary health

Given any infinite tree in the plane satisfying certain topological conditions, we construct an entire function f with only two critical values ±1 and no asymptotic values such that f−1([−1, 1]) is ambiently homeomorphic to the given tree. This can be viewed as a generalization of the result of Grothendieck (see Schneps (1994)) to the case of infinite trees. Moreover, a similar idea leads to a new

Targeting the androgen receptor (AR) pathway prolongs survival in patients with prostate cancer, but resistance rapidly develops. Understanding this resistance is confounded by a lack of noninvasive means to assess AR activity in vivo. We report intracellular accumulation of a secreted antigen-targeted antibody (SATA) that can be used to characterize disease, guide therapy, and monitor response. A

Capturing Carbon in Perennial Cropping Systems Jonas Ardö, Patrik Vestin INES, LU Lennart Olsson, LUCSUS, LU Introduction This thesis proposal is a part of a FORMAS funded project called Capturing Carbon in Perennial Cropping Systems (summary below) which aim to estimate possibilities for soil carbon sequestration through cropping of perennial grains. In this case will Kernza ® (intermediate wheat

While foreign direct investments (FDI) are promoted as a vehicle for economic development their environmental consequences are less estab-lished. This study tests the hypotheses that 1) FDI led to environmental deg-radation in form of increased greenhouse gas emissions during Sub-Saharan Africa´s recent growth spurt but that 2) this impact was felt to a lesser extent in countries with a higher qua

Covid-19 increased the social and economic vulnerability of island societies. Swedish islands are key tourism destinations but are also home to many island residents. Previous studies have high-lighted the impact of Covid-19 on core areas, but our knowledge of its impact on island communities is lac-king. We use phenomenology to analyse how communities in small Swedish islands perceive the impact

While foreign direct investments (FDI) are promoted as a vehicle for economic development their environmental consequences are less established. This study tests the hypotheses that 1) FDI led to environmental degradation in form of increased greenhouse gas emissions during Sub-Saharan Africa´s recent growth spurt but that 2) this impact was felt to a lesser extent in countries with a higher quali

This research explores the processes of articulation between indigenous-ancestral knowledge practices of childbirth and the biomedical logic that articulates the field of medicine and state interventions. It unravels the question of: how do government policies in Ecuador construct the discourse around the dynamics between traditional-indigenous childbirth and biomedical interventions, and what imp

The dendritic cell (DC) lineage encompasses a diverse population of cells with unique subtype-specific functions. In peripheral blood, four DC subsets have been identified based on their distinct expression of CD1c, CD141, CD16, and CD123, and these subpopulations exhibit functional properties in immune responses. However, their respective roles in allergic diseases, such as rhinitis, are unclear.

Wet room - demands and rules This paper explains how the legislative system is built concerning wet rooms within the construction industry. Legislation is developed by all involved authorities. The state has created laws and regulations through parliament and government. These laws are used as a foundation for Boverket, who has produced BBR, which specifies the minimum requirements for the propert

Covid-19 update Due to the increasing spread of COVID 19 in Skåne, the Public Health Agency of Sweden and the Skåne Regional Council have decided on new regulations and general advice for the region of Skåne. The new recommendations are applicable from now until 17 November 2020. No English version is currently available, but in short, they say that you should: avoid commuting with public transpor
