As part of an edited collection published by the Lund University, Agenda 2030 Graduate School, this essay presents a theoretical reflection on sustainability and EU migration law. Drawing on Derrida and his figure of the specter figure of the specter as a thing that shapes the present as permeated by an elsewhere, I suggest that sustainable migration could be understood as a specter haunting EU mi
Poster: Bakgrund/Syfte: Personer med flerfunktionsnedsättning behöver stöd i utvecklingen av sina aktivitetsrepertoarer. Avgöra fas i LärandeProcessen (ALP) med instrument och främjande strategier kan bidra till att utveckla deras förståelse för användning av verktyg. Studien utvärderade interbedömarreliabilitet och klinikers upplevelser av att använda det universella instrumentet (ALP) i aktivite
Bakgrund/Syfte: Aktivitetsträning är en ständigt pågående process som innefattar social interaktion och lärande. Synen på människan som en aktiv varelse är central i arbetsterapi och insatserna rör ofta vardagens olika aktivitetsområden så som personlig vård, boende, fritid och arbete. Görandet av aktiviteterna kan beskrivas som en interaktiv social process där personen har ett ständigt utbyte med
Avgöra fas i LärandeProcessen (ALP): ett universellt verktyg för bedömning och främjande av aktivitetsutförande och verktygsanvändning. Det universella ALP-verktyget kan tillämpas med barn och vuxna, oberoende av deras förmågor, diagnos, funktionsnedsättningar eller i vilka situationer de utför aktiviteter eller verktygsanvändning. Detta innebär att arbetsterapeuter kan använda det universella ALP
This paper proposes a D-band patch antenna featuring four parasitic elements and a loaded superstrate layer. Inspired by a previous parasitic patch antenna design, the new structure is synthesized from scratch using characteristic mode analysis. The new design features different operating principles that enable low-cost single-layer fabrication on PCB HDI technology, while retaining wideband opera
Background: Premeal whey protein (WP) consumption may reduce postprandial glucose (PPG) levels and appetite. We assessed the effects of twice daily consumption of a low-dose non-gelling novel WP formulation (WP microgel [WPM]) on PPG, self-reported appetite, and ad-libitum food consumption. Methods: This was a randomized, prospective, open-label, controlled, single-center crossover study, and adul
Background: Limited data exist on transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) outcomes in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) stenosis. This study compared TAVR outcomes in BAV versus tricuspid aortic stenosis. Methods: This observational study included all patients who underwent TAVR in Sweden from 2016 to 2022, excluding those with pure aortic insufficiency and valve-in-valve procedures.
To address the critical need for efficient biogas upgrading, this study systematically investigates the continuous absorption of CO2 and H2S from biogas using a choline chloride-monoethanolamine deep eutectic solvent (ChCl-MEA DES). Experiments were conducted in a continuous flow reactor under two scenarios: single-component absorption and simultaneous absorption of CO2 and H2S. The influence of k
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is compacted into dynamic structures called mitochondrial nucleoids (mt-nucleoids), with the mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) as the core packaging protein. We generated bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) transgenic mice expressing FLAG-tagged TFAM protein (Tfam-FLAGBAC mice) to investigate the mt-nucleoid composition in vivo. Importantly, we show that the T
Biodiversity is increasingly negatively affected by climate warming, making this issue a major conservation concern. Many bird species respond to warming temperatures by shifting distribution ranges, but these shifts often lag behind temperature changes. Protected areas (PAs) can facilitate such shifts, but a growing body of literature suggests that not all PAs facilitate climate warming responses
Aerosolised Polystyrene Latex (PSL) nanoparticles are, due to their well-defined size, spherical shape, and inert surface, useful in many experimental applications, including studies of particle deposition in the human lung. Aerosolising nanoparticles entails added challenges, and nanoparticles can potentially be more hazardous than otherwise equivalent microparticles. The objective of this work w
Background: Registry data used to monitor clinical care need to be reliable, and the process for assuring data quality transparent. Here the auditing process of the Swedish quality registry for cardiac disease, SWEDEHEART, is described. Methods: SWEDEHEART audits have been performed at 4 time-points in 2011 to 2018, with data quality audited in the 3 largest subregistries covering acute coronary s
Purpose: Assess if cystatin C-derived measures of kidney function are associated with mortality in septic- and non-septic intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Methods: Data from adult patients staying >24 h in four ICUs in Sweden from November 2015–December 2018 included. Outcomes were mortality and need for renal replacement therapy (RRT) due to acute kidney injury. Associations between cystatin C
We report 17 new solar activity cycles with periodicities ranging from 1,700 to 18,000 years. Using Bayesian spectral analysis we determined for each cycle period, amplitude and phase for the past 145,000 years. These results were obtained by analyzing 10Be in the 2775 m long EDML ice core from Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. In addition, we have augmented the 10Be data with synchronous ice accumu
Background: One of the preanalytical factors that can affect the results of arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis is the time from sample collection to analysis. A delay in analysis may affect the results due to factors such as ongoing cellular metabolism within the blood sample, gas exchange between the blood sample and the environment, and temperature changes. ABG analysis can be delayed for various
Online acoustic emission (AE) sensing is a promising nondestructive technique for battery health monitoring. Herein, we report on the ability of AE sensing to differentiate among different chemomechanical degradation events in a TiS2-based model aqueous chemistry. Short and high-frequency AE signals primarily stem from fracture-related degradation of TiS2, such as layer delamination, exfoliation,
Molecular subtyping of pulmonary large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) based on retinoblastoma protein (pRb) expression may influence systemic treatment decisions. Current histomorphologic assessments of hematoxylin and eosin–stained tissue samples cannot reliably differentiate LCNEC molecular subtypes. This study explores the potential of deep learning (DL) to identify histologic patterns t
With 23,000 registered participants and unprecedented media attention, the 16th conference of the parties (COP) to the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) in Cali, Colombia, was the largest in the 32-year history of these biannual meetings. In terms of successes, the Cali conference established a new subsidiary body to protect concerns of indigenous communities and local popula
The influence of alkyl chain on the physical and photochemical properties of D-A-π-A-π-A sensitizers (GZ-121 and GZ-124) for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) was investigated through density functional theory (DFT). Key aspects examined include geometry, optical characteristic, electron injection, intramolecular charge transfer, and dye regeneration. Adsorption models of dye@TiO2, short-circuit
