This article elaborates on the embodiment of heritage via dressing practices in several rural and urban Nordic communities in the United States. Getting dressed is a shared human practice that we engage in and repeat most days, and for special occasions, traditional dress, or folk costume, comes into particular focus. I approach dressing in folk costume as a “situated embodied practice,” a mode of
IMPORTANCE Upper gastrointestinal bleeding is common after myocardial infarction. OBJECTIVE To determine whether routine screening for Helicobacter pylori infection during hospitalization for myocardial infarction reduces bleeding events and improves clinical outcomes. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS A nationwide, open-label, 2-period, 2-sequence, cluster randomized, crossover clinical trial usi
A necessary foundation for realizing circularity in the building sector is a good understanding of our existing building stock. This includes the design approaches and building codes used at the time of construction. The provisions in building codes have evolved from a heuristically adjusted permissible stress method to a semi-probabilistic safety format using partial safety factors. In addition,
In this article, we argue for the value of student podcasts for fostering dialogue around questions of poetry and sustainable futures in an English as a foreign language context. Our research draws on our experiences of inviting student teachers to create their own podcasts on a recently published poem about nature or the Anthropocene, or both, in our first-year literature course for those studyin
This book addresses an under-researched area within populism studies: the discourse of supporters of populist parties. Taking the 2019 European elections as their case study, the authors analyse how supporters in eleven different countries construct identities and voting motivations on social media. The individual chapters comprise a range of methods to investigate data from different social mediaThis book addresses an under-researched area within populism studies: the discourse of supporters of populist parties.

During the past years, activist movements have increasingly turned to social media to raise awareness and critically discuss current development and future scenarios. As a contribution to the discussion of new social movements and activism in the digital age, this study aims to explore and critically discuss how environmental risks and crisis are visually communicated in activism campaigns on Inst
Vid Örebro universitet anordnades våren 2021 för andra gången konferensen Forskning om högre utbildning. Ett tema för konferensen var utveckling av högskolepedagogisk forskning. Högre utbildning publicerar nu tre texter på detta tema som en fördjupad diskussion. De kan läsas var för sig eller tillsammans. Den första utgörs av Sverre Wides inledningsanförande från konferensen. Efter inbjudan från r
BACKGROUND: Retrospective studies have shown promising results using artificial intelligence (AI) to improve mammography screening accuracy and reduce screen-reading workload; however, to our knowledge, a randomised trial has not yet been conducted. We aimed to assess the clinical safety of an AI-supported screen-reading protocol compared with standard screen reading by radiologists following mamm
In social work, practitioners are often faced with situations in which they have to choose an intervention. A fundamental ethical principle of social work practice is to minimize the risk of adverse effects caused by social services. To adhere to this principle, practitioners must be aware of the possible positive and negative effects of potential services. There are hundreds of interventions curr
Over the last 25 years, the Europace journal has greatly contributed to dissemination of research and knowledge in the field of syncope. More than 400 manuscripts have been published in the journal. They undoubtedly improved our understanding of syncope. This symptom is now clearly differentiated from other forms of transient loss of consciousness. The critical role of vasodepression and/or cardio
Bookkeeping and accounting is a prevalent feature of small organizations, which has changed face quite substantially with the advent of personal computers and, later, the Internet. The emergence of digitalized accounting procedures has taken place in a nexus of different types of actors (e.g., software developers, accountancy firms and the businesses themselves), regulatory frameworks (e.g., bookk
Occupant behavior towards manual solar shading systems affects the energy performance of buildings. Behavior depends on several aspects which interact in a nontrivial way. This paper presents a simple prediction model of behavior based on self-reported use of manual shading and a user survey. The specific model is applicable to the case study building, which is an office building in Gothenburg, Sw
Importance: It is important to determine the added clinical value for tau positron emission tomography (PET) in the diagnostic workup of patients with cognitive symptoms before widespread implementation in clinical practice. Objective: To prospectively study the added clinical value of PET detecting tau pathology in Alzheimer disease (AD). Design, Setting, and Participants: This prospective cohort
