The circular economy has been promoted as a way for corporations to radically improve their resource efficiency and effectiveness by narrowing, slowing, closing and regenerating resource flows. However, the degree of implementation of these circular strategies across different geographies and industries is little understood. We conducted a large-scale survey with senior leaders in large corporatio
The strata encompassing the Permian–Triassic boundary interval capture a pivotal period in Earth's history, with significant changes in Phanerozoic Earth system dynamics, culminating in a severe mass extinction. In carbonate platforms, this boundary is marked by a shift from skeletal to microbial carbonate production. Whereas extensive research has focused on the End-Permian Mass Extinction in ope
This paper studies the impact of truth-telling preferences on aggregate consumer welfare within a priority pricing (PP) mechanism. Traditional models assume individuals always misrepresent private information to maximize payoffs, yet recent evidence suggests there may be an innate preference for truth-telling. By incorporating these preferences into a theoretical framework, I show that PP enhances
Background: Seasonal allergic rhinitis (AR) impacts public health by affecting work productivity and quality of life. The Swedish tree pollen season starts in February with alder and hazel pollination, followed by birch and ends with oak in May. Systemic corticosteroids are often prescribed when topical treatments fail, despite limited evidence supporting their efficacy. Objective: To compare the
The operation of next-generation particle accelerator facilities with increased beam power parameters and emphasis on performance and reliability signifies the need for experimental studies on material property degradation. Literature is particularly scarce regarding the effects of ionizing radiation damage on cavity components at applicable radiation conditions, with even less extant work studyin
The concept of ‘sustainable welfare’ conceptualizes welfare and wellbeing within planetary limits. Yet there is a lack of knowledge about possible social and political carriers of corresponding social-ecological transformations. For the promotion of the changes of societal core institutions that climate scientists deem necessary in the nearer future knowledge of which parts of the population are m
This conceptual article examines the relational dynamic between the research field focusing on the far right and those critical scholars that endeavour to undertake these studies. It is theoretically anchored in the field of political science scholarship that recognises the key role played by gender in understanding both the ideological underpinnings and the workings of various far-right entities
Purpose: To describe nurses' experiences encountering children with suspected neurodevelopmental disorders in Child Health Services. Design and methods: This qualitative inductive study was conducted in Sweden. Twenty nurses were interviewed individually on a virtual platform using a semi-structured interview guide with open-ended and explorative questions. Interviews were audio recorded and trans
Background: Behavioural variant Frontotemporal Dementia (bvFTD) is an early-onset dementia characterised by early anterior cingulate (AC) neuropathological insult. The AC exhibits high morphological heterogeneity, which may be classified according to the presence of a paracingulate sulcus (PCS), a tertiary sulcus that, when present, develops during the third gestational trimester and thereafter re
Alcohol impairs motor performance, but it remains unclear precisely why this is the case. Here, we examine the effects of alcohol intoxication on conditioned eyeblink responses, a form of classical conditioning dependent on the cerebellum. In experiment 1, the conditioned responses of 18 students before and after alcohol consumption up to 1 ‰ were compared against the performance of 26 non-drinkin
The question of who China’s leftover men will marry is becoming a pressing issue for Beijing. The government’s response will shape the country’s future for decades to come.
When developing general-purpose robot software components, we often lack complete knowledge of the specific contexts in which they will be executed. This limits our ability to make predictions, including our ability to detect program bugs statically. Since running a robot is an expensive task, finding errors at runtime can prolong the debugging loop or even cause safety hazards. This paper propose
Utfallet av parlamentsvalen i Europa får troliggen större påverkan på Sverige än Trump, skriver Fredrik N G Andersson, docent i nationalekonomi vid Lunds universitet.
Coherent diffractive imaging experiments often collect incomplete datasets containing regions that lack any measurements. These regions can arise because of beamstops, gaps between detectors, or, in tomography experiments, a missing wedge of data due to a limited sample rotation range. We describe practical and effective approaches to mitigate reconstruction artifacts by bringing uniqueness back t
new species can form through hybridization between species. Hybrid speciation in animals has been intensely debated, partly because hard evidence for the process has been difficult to obtain. Here we report the discovery of a European hybrid butterfly lineage, a finding that can be considered surprising given the intense and long-term study of European butterflies. The lineage we describe is main
SUMMARY: PopGLen is a Snakemake workflow for performing population genomic analyses within a genotype-likelihood framework, integrating steps for raw sequence processing of both historical and modern DNA, quality control, multiple filtering schemes, and population genomic analysis. Currently, the population genomic analyses included allow for estimating linkage disequilibrium, kinship, genetic div
Aim: This study aimed to develop a universally applicable core set of quality indicators for Hirschsprung's disease care through a consensus-driven process, to standardise and improve care quality across Europe. Methods: A modified Delphi method was used to achieve consensus among healthcare professionals (HPs) and patient representatives (PRs) across Europe. Participants completed three rounds of
