I kyrkböcker, skattelängder och gamla dokument av olika slag nämns Dannäs by. I denna mikrohistoriska studie kartläggs var den försvunna byn låg och vilka gårdar som fanns i den. Dessutom förklaras det hur det gick till när byn försvann och hur denna process hänger samman med större samhälleliga förändringar som rör jordbrukets mekanisering och framväxten av ett jordlöst proletariat på landsbygden
BACKGROUND: Knockdown effect, especially in pyrethroid-based household and public insecticides, is often considered a practical indicator of insecticidal efficacy. However, whether faster knockdown implies lethality remains uncertain because the relationship between the two effects has not been systematically explored. This study examined whether knockdown speed is associated with mortality across
It is often argued that design serves as an effective change agent in strategy formation. However, the question of how this actually occurs remains largely unexplored. Through case studies of five design consulting firms in Denmark, this paper examines how design gets involved in the making of strategy. The findings show that there are at least two paths to strategy-level work: First, design works
Collaborating with public or private sector organizations in project-based courses equips design students with key skills to future-proof their careers, but this gives only one side of the story as the key feature of these partnerships is that they are mutualistic collaborations. However, the benefits to organizations of collaborating are not fully explored. This paper presents a case study of par
Public sector organizations have been increasingly turning to design in their pursuit to innovate and address pressing challenges that seem intractable through their existing ways of working. Design’s presence in the public sector is still a relatively recent phenomenon ridden with many challenges. Through a study of three municipalities in Sweden, we present tensions designers face as they work t
Municipalities around the world have become increasingly reliant upon digital technologies in their everyday operations. In pursuit of a faster, cheaper, and more efficient local government, service platforms and applications that mediate citizen-government interactions, smart city infrastructures, and automated decision-making systems have proliferated. More recently, digital technologies are als
The work focuses on Lagrange stability of the origin for the three-state Moore–Greitzer compressor model in closed loop with a nonlinear PI controller, tuned only to stabilize a lower-dimensional invariant surge dynamics subsystem. The linearization of the system is not stabilizable but the static nonlinearity satisfies a sector condition, and together with a structural property of the stall-dynam
Longstanding practices of participatory co-design have sought to engage communities in the development of shared resources, services, and technologies. However, approaches such as citizen-centered design and digital civics bring these design methods to bear on the development of digital technologies in support of civic and third sector organizations in particularly complex and rapidly changing soc
We propose an innovative approach to empower urban planners by integrating comprehensive and qualified citizen input into the planning of the 15-minute city (15mC) through immersive digital technologies. Our methodology includes (1) enabling citizens to annotate their real environment using augmented reality, (2) generating urban space alternatives based on generative AI and citizen annotations, (
AimsTo evaluate the association between diabetes and four peripheral nerve entrapment syndromes: carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), ulnar nerve entrapment (UNE), radial nerve entrapment (RNE), and tarsal tunnel syndrome (TTS).MethodsThis retrospective cohort study used the Merative™ MarketScan® Commercial Database (2007–2023). Adults ≥18 years were classified as having diabetes or serving as controls.
OBJECTIVES: Diabetes mellitus (DM) has a strong genetic component and is a known risk factor for several hand conditions. We aimed to examine whether DM in first-degree relatives is associated with an increased risk of hand surgical diagnoses.DESIGN: A retrospective cohort study.SETTING: Data were collected from a population-based cohort in southern Sweden (Malmö Diet and Cancer Study (MDCS)). Fam
Rapid digitalisation in public services in the Nordic countries inevitably excludes citizenswho have limited digital skills. At present, public libraries are playing a crucial role in helpingsuch citizens in closing this gap, thus assuming a buffering function between public servicesand disadvantaged citizens. This policy brief recommends supporting this role and furtherexpanding it by creating an
Hjärntumörer hos barn är ovanliga och prognosen har förbättrats avsevärt under de senaste decennierna. Eftersom symtomen ofta är diffusa och ospecifika riskerar diagnosen att fördröjas, vilket kan leda till mer avancerad och svårbehandlad sjukdom. Förutom huvudvärk och illamående kan synpåverkan, hormonella rubbningar, motoriska symtom och ryggsmärta vara tidiga varningssignaler. Tidigare upptäckt
Reading engagement is widely recognised as critical for literacy development, yet its dynamic nature poses challenges for empirical analysis. This study examines reading engagement as a situated event within shared reading (SR) sessions involving 40 students, organised into four groups, in vocational upper-secondary education. The data consists of two video-recorded SR sessions per group, resultin
Purpose: Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is the key prognostic factor in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Progression to RV failure involves dilatation, systolic and diastolic impairment, fibrosis, and metabolic changes. Lung transplantation (LTx) normalizes RV afterload, but the extent of recovery and its relation to immunosuppressive therapy remain unclear. We aimed to assess RV functio
INTRODUCTION: The anterior medial temporal lobe (MTL), including the entorhinal cortex (ERC) and Brodmann area 35 (BA35), is among the earliest cortical sites of tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet conventional image segmentation methods poorly capture these regions. METHODS: We applied an automated segmentation approach using an extended Automatic Segmentation of Hippocampal Subfields
This study characterizes the physicochemical properties and evaluates the atmospheric dispersion of radionuclides potentially released from the European Spallation Source (ESS) under a postulated worst-case loss-of-coolant accident scenario. The primary objective was to quantify near-surface air concentrations and deposition. Likely chemical forms were identified through a literature-based evaluat
