Laws based on the concept of extended producer responsibiltiy (EPR) have been implemented now for the last three decades. While their contribution to source separation of targetted waste streams, their contribution to reuse as well as closure of material loops have been arguably limited, and their effects on upstream changes require further research. Improvement of existing EPR laws have been disc
International Institute for Industrial Environmental Economics at Lund University has been running MSc in Environmental Management and Policy (EMP) programme, an interdisciplinary, international masters programme for sustainability for the last 27 years. The programme, while keeping its applied and practical nature and dual column of business and policy, has been evolving over time and has produce
Att vägra värnplikt blev en viktig fråga för många unga män under 1960- 90-talet. Syftet med studien är att undersöka och analysera diskussionen och debatten om värnpliktsvägrarfrågan i Sverige under perioden 1965-91 för att blottlägga vilken typ av argument som kom i bruk. Eftersom antalet vägrare ökade under denna period uppstod även en intensiv diskussion om frågan i offentligheten. En viktig a
Purpose: Previous studies have shown that at a similar body mass index, Middle Eastern immigrants are more insulin resistant and at higher risk for type 2 diabetes (T2D) than native Europeans. Insulin resistance is strongly associated with disturbed fat metabolism and cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, fat metabolism is poorly investigated comparing Middle Eastern and European ethnicities. Met
This narrative review describes a new approach to navigation in a challenging landscape of clinical drug development in diabetes. Successful outcome studies in recent years have led to new indications and guidelines in type 2 diabetes, yet the number of clinical trials in diabetes is now declining. This is due to many environmental factors acting in concert, including the prioritisation of funding
Background: Short-term trials conducted in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) showed that reducing sedentary behaviour by performing regular short bouts of light-intensity physical activity enhances health. Moreover, support for reducing sedentary behaviour may be provided at a low cost via mobile health technology (mHealth). There are a wide range of mHealth solutions available including
Background: Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are frequently used to assess the effects of treatments in patients with wrist osteoarthritis (OA), but their psychometric properties have not been evaluated in this group of patients. Our aim was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS pain at rest, pain on motion without load, and pain on load), the Disabiliti
