Overfishing poses a critical threat to marine ecosystems and local coastal communities worldwide. Designation of Marine Protected Areas, particularly those incorporating No-Fishing Zones, act as refuges from the effects of climate and fishing, serve as valuable biodiversity conservation tools for more resilient social-ecological systems. Nevertheless, to be successful in long-term conservation the

The formation of the intermetallic phase (space group ⁢42/⁢⁢) has a detrimental effect on the ductility of transition-metal alloys. This theoretical study uses first-principles calculations to investigate the stability and thermodynamic properties of the WRe and WOs phases. Our study indicates that the phase becomes thermodynamically stable at its ideal composition for temperatures above 1050 K an

In this chapter, the authors summarize the current knowledge of possible trigger(s) of p-cell autoimmunity and factors affecting the progression to the clinical onset in individuals who have developed one or more p-cell autoantibodies. Testing islet autoantibodies at random or in select populations such as schoolchildren should inform about the epidemiology of autoimmune islet disease and what to

Ett samtal om serieteckningar som ett sätt att nå ut med angelägen forskning mellan Robert Nyberg, Tecknare och Semra Sahin Haglund, Doktorand Mittuniversitetet/Lunds universitet.. Det handlar om normer inom bäckenbottenhälsa, urinläckage och bemötande i vårdenA conversation about cartoons as a way to reach out with important research between Robert Nyberg, artist, och Semra Sahin Haglund, phd student, Mid Sweden University/Lund University. It's about norms in pelvic floor health, urinary leakage, and treatment in healthcare.

We explore whether SAM2, a vision foundation model, can be used for accurate localization of eye image features that are used in lab-based eye tracking: corneal reflections (CRs), the pupil, and the iris. We prompted SAM2 via a typical hand annotation process that consisted of clicking on the pupil, CR, iris and sclera for only one image per participant. SAM2 was found to support better spatial pr

BACKGROUND: Achalasia is a rare motility disorder of the esophagus. The diagnosis involves clinical suspicion based on history details and results of high-resolution manometry (HRM) as recommended by the Chicago classification (CCv4.0). Interpreting data obtained through HRM can be complex especially for the novice user.METHODS: We propose therefore a color-based algorithm involving the "reversed

This study aims to investigate the factors influencing teachers’ intentions to integrate Virtual Reality (VR) technology into their educational practices, utilising the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT-2) framework. The research involved adapting and validating the ‘Acceptance of Mobile Immersive Virtual Reality in Secondary Education Teachers’ scale to the Turkish context

BACKGROUND: Decolonisation has become a global health priority, addressing inequities rooted in colonial histories that continue to shape power dynamics and knowledge systems. Nordic global health programmes bring together students and faculty from diverse backgrounds in a region defined by inclusive ideals but shaped by underexamined colonial legacies. This context offers a valuable setting to ex

Neuropsykiatriska utredningar och diagnoser har varit ett återkommande tema i media men arbetsvillkoren för psykologer som arbetar med utredningar har inte diskuterats.Denna kartläggning genomfördes för att undersöka psykologers arbetssituation. Kartläggningen genomfördes som en digital enkät under hösten 2024 och denna rapport sammanfattar resultaten. Enkäten kartlade tre större områden: möjligheNeuropsychiatric assessments and diagnoses have been a recurring topic in the media, but the working conditions of psychologists involved in these assessments have not been widely discussed.This survey was conducted to examine the working conditions of psychologists. It was carried out as a digital questionnaire during the autumn of 2024, and this report summarizes the results. The questionnaire f

This article examines how Burgaz islanders use media productions – novels, memoirs, documentaries, and interview-based books – to represent and rekindle conviviality, resilience, and solidarity in response to political crises and forced migration within a post-Ottoman homogenising context. By combining media studies and anthropology, I analyse narratives and representations in these media producti

During the second half of the 19th century, a French school of trumpet playing was established, with French musicians and composers at the forefront of the instrument’s musical and technical development. As a result, it was entrusted with a more prominent role within the orchestra and soon also as a solo instrument. On the present disc, Håkan Hardenberger – who like so many other leading trumpet p
