Sustainable products have arrived on the market and faced competition with traditional products with one extra challenge: they normally tend to be more expensive than traditional ones. Customers are yet to pay more for these products as they are alerted for environmental impacts. However, the gap between knowledge and action is being decreased slowly. One of the factors for this sluggish behavior
Hela människor handlar om mötet med patienten i behandling av psykisk ohälsa. Perioden är sent 1700-tal till 1924, en tid av revolutionerande förändringar både i tolkningen och hanteringen av psykiskt lidande. En rad behandlingstraditioner växte fram, var och en med sina egna teorier om vad sjukligheten kunde bero på och hur den skulle bemötas. Några traditioner lever kvar i dag, som allmänmedicin
By measuring brain activity, through techniques such as electroencephalography (EEG), it is possible to decode which sound source a person is listening to, called auditory attention decoding (AAD). This can either be done investigating the relation between speech sources and corresponding brain responses over time, or by discrimi-natively estimating directions to which auditory attention is focuse
Reducing socioeconomic health inequalities is a key goal of most health systems. A challenge in this regard is that healthcare providers may have incentives to avoid or undertreat patients who are relatively costly to treat. Due to the socioeconomic gradient in health, individuals with low socioeconomic status (SES) are especially likely to be negatively affected by such attempts. To counter these

This article evaluates the current gaps around the impact of post-manufacturing processes on the product qualities of protein-based biologics, with a focus on user centricity. It includes the evaluation of the regulatory guidance available, describes a collection of scientific literature and case studies to showcase the impact of post-manufacturing stresses on product and dosing solution quality.
Background: Management of young febrile infants is challenging. Therefore, several guidelines have been developed over the last decades. However, knowledge regarding the impact of introducing guidelines for febrile infants is limited. We assessed the impact of and adherence to a novel guideline for managing febrile infants aged ≤59 days. Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study was conduc
In 2019, archaeologists carried out a large excavation of parts of the Dominican convent in the centre of Lund, in Scania, Sweden, which yielded a substantial medieval ceramic assemblage. This article aims to compare selected sherds from this assemblage with a collection of funerary pots, or censers, retrieved further south in the same town block during excavations in the convent church in 1906. Q

AimsTo evaluate the potential causal effect of glycemic traits on lung cancer and investigate the impact of antihyperglycemic agent-target genes on lung cancer risk.MethodsGenetic variants associated with glycemic traits, antihyperglycemic agent-target genes, and lung cancer were extracted from the Meta-Analyses of Glucose and Insulin-related traits Consortium (MAGIC), expression quantitative trai
This article examines the dynamics of matter and signifiers in Zola’s two novels Nana (1880) and Money (1891). Though Zola’s novels are often read with a focus on capital and economics workings, the context of marginalist economics contemporaneous to Zola is only vaguely described. In drawing upon Jean-Joseph Goux’s work on marginalism and Zola, this topic is addressed, and the article discusses d
In photoacoustic imaging, the amplitude of the photoacoustic signal is used for mapping the spatial distribution of a chromophore in the body and few studies have focused on the potential of using frequency content of the photoacoustic data. This study investigates the feasibility of using the photoacoustic center frequency spectrum in differentiating microspheres of various sizes and colors in ph
Increasing interest and research is directed towards longitudinal arterial wall motion (LMov) identified by ultrasonography, most often of the common carotid artery (CCA). LMov comprises of both antegrade and retrograde motion phases that create motion patterns specific to an individual. Preliminary data from several independent groups strongly suggest correlation between LMov parameters and cardi
It has been proposed that formation of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is part of a systemic arterial dilatative disease. However, arteries in the upper extremity are scarcely studied and it remains unclear whether both muscular and elastic arteries are affected by the proposed systemic arterial dilatation. The aim of this study was to investigate diameter and stiffness of muscular and elastic art
This article analyses similarities between Flaubert’s stylistics in Madame Bovary and the theories of new materialism, in particular the work of Karen Barad. Drawing upon earlier readings of the novel by Schor, Danius, Starobinski and Rancière this reading centers on the motif of boundaries and their dissolvement and it argues that the novel highlights a feeling of disappointment or frustration wi
While the Japanese writer Murakami Ryūs earlier works are concerned with shock and boredom, his works from the 1990’s display an interest in apocalyptic fantasies in order to start society afresh. This article examines two of these novels – Popular Hits of the Showa Era (1994) and In the Miso Soup (1997) – and discusses this tendency in the context of Japan’s Lost Decade, the economic depression t
