Light, activity and sleep in my daily life: : Design of an online intervention targeting changes to routines and the home

Background: Older adults spend more time at home after retirement, and the home becomes a central place for activity. While research indicates that indoor lighting, exposure to daylight, physical activity and sleep interact to influence functioning, mood and daily rhythm, strategies are needed to promote behavioural changes to optimise these factors in daily life. The objective is to design an intBackground: Older adults spend more time at home after retirement, and the home becomes a central place for activity.

Targeting the latest site of left ventricular mechanical activation is associated with improved long-term outcomes for recipients of cardiac resynchronization therapy

Background: Previous studies have suggested that targeting the site of latest mechanical activation of the left ventricle (LV) results in improved cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) outcomes. It is not known whether these benefits are sustained over medium-term follow-up. Objective: To assess the clinical outcome of imaging-guided LV lead position. Methods: We sought to assess the medium-term

A Continuum of Recordkeeping? : The possibilities and challenges of born-digital public records in Denmark and Sweden

This chapter explores the relationship between public agencies and archival authorities in Denmark and Sweden regarding recordkeeping practices, born-digital records, and archival legislation. We provide a 360-degree look at recordkeeping within the Nordic Model, taking our point of departure from the records continuum model. The Danish and Swedish approaches we discuss predate the records continu

Multidisciplinary Research on Family Historians : Framing Current Challenges in Cultural Heritage

This literature review offers a continuum of arguments for family historians being a vital part of the digital heritage practices found in the combined ecosystem of libraries, archives and the digital humanities. In digital heritage, there is an increased focus on public participation efforts such as crowdsourcing and educational programmes, emphasising representation, inclusivity and diversity. T

Developmental signs of ADHD and autism: a prospective investigation in 3623 children

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are neurodevelopmental disorders with an early onset. Guidelines recommend a careful evaluation of developmental history when assessing the disorders, but it is unclear how children with ADHD and ASD differ from their peers growing up. In this study, physical, family, psychological, social, and educational informati

Comparison of 2D and 4D Flow MRI in Neonates Without General Anesthesia

BackgroundNeonates with critical congenital heart disease require early intervention. Four-dimensional (4D) flow may facilitate surgical planning and improve outcome, but accuracy and precision in neonates are unknown.PurposeTo 1) validate two-dimensional (2D) and 4D flow MRI in a phantom and investigate the effect of spatial and temporal resolution; 2) investigate accuracy and precision of 4D flo

A resistor network model for analysis of current and temperature distribution in carbon fibre reinforced polymers during induction heating

The interest in carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP) is growing due to their high strength and stiffness compared to their weight, in industries such as automotive and aerospace. This creates a high demand for more effective production methods. Volumetric induction heating of the electrically conductive carbon fibres enable unmatched heat rates and can be used both during manufacturing and join

There are more women in joggeur·euses than in joggeurs : On the effects of gender-fair forms on perceived gender ratios in French role nouns

The present paper reports findings from a controlled large-scale (N = 1018) experimental study investigating how four different gender-fair forms influenced native French speakers’ estimated percentage of women compared to the masculine form (interpretable as generic) in 22 non-stereotyped French role nouns. The findings show that the masculine form generated lower perceived percentages of women c

Urban Sharing in Toronto

“Urban Sharing in Toronto” explores the landscape of the sharing economy in the city context. This research is a result of a Mobile Research Lab conducted by 8 researchers from Lund university in 2019. Specific focus is on three sectors: sharing of space, mobility and physical goods. For each sector, we discuss the drivers and barriers to the sharing economy, the associated sustainability impacts,

Urban Sharing in Shanghai

This city report is the result of a Mobile Research Lab conducted online in Shanghai during spring 2020. The Mobile Research Lab involves a combination of methods, including case studies, interviews, observations, expert panels, and in-situ field work. This report presents insights gained by the Urban Sharing research team Oksana Mont (PI), Andrius Plepys, Yuliya Voytenko Palgan, Matthias Lehner,

Urban Sharing in Melbourne

“Urban Sharing in Melbourne” explores the landscape of the sharing economy in the city context and is a result of a Mobile Research Lab conducted by four researchers from Lund University in 2021-2022 online. The specific focus is on three sectors: sharing of space, mobility, and physical goods. For each sector, drivers and barriers to the sharing economy are explored, associated sustainability imp

Exploring Space Syntax Integration at Public Transport Hubs and Public Squares Using Drone Footage

Space Syntax theory is a methodological framework for describing and analysing the relationships between spaces and buildings. The fundamental building blocks of Space Syntax are called axial lines, which represent lines of sight from a specific point in space. These lines can then be used to quantitatively analyse the integration (or attractiveness) of an area. However, many public squares and tr

Prevalence and treatment of hip displacement in children with cerebral palsy in Finland

Purpose: The aim was to study the prevalence of hip displacements, dislocations, and the hip surgeries performed in a Finnish cohort of children with cerebral palsy not followed up in a hip surveillance program and to compare these with previous studies performed in Northern European countries before and after the implementation of hip surveillance programs.Methods: A cross-sectional study. A coho

Pressure injuries are common in children with myelomeningocele : Results from a follow-up programme and register

AIM: To investigate the occurrence of pressure injuries (PIs) in children with myelomeningocele (MMC) and to investigate the association between PIs and orthoses use by disability-specific variables.METHODS: Population-based registry study including participants in the Swedish multidisciplinary follow-up programme for MMC. Risks of PIs were investigated by birth cohort, country of birth, sex, type
