BACKGROUND: Shared decision-making (SDM) between clinicians and patients is one of the pillars of the modern patient-centric philosophy of care. This study aims to explore SDM in the discipline of trauma and emergency surgery, investigating its interpretation as well as the barriers and facilitators for its implementation among surgeons.METHODS: Grounding on the literature on the topics of the und
OBJECTIVES: To investigate hip dysplasia as a risk factor for clinically relevant and incident radiographic hip OA.METHODS: From a prospective cohort (CHECK) of 1002 middle-aged, new consulters for hip and/or knee pain, 468 hips (251 individuals) were selected based on hip pain, available lateral center edge angle (LCEA) and absence of definite radiographic hip OA (Kellgren and Lawrence [KL] grade
District heating and cooling is a simple but powerful technology that could contribute to decarbonising Europe's heating and cooling supply. However, its current overall penetration is minor. Furthermore, future systems could adopt different configurations with various settings of temperature levels or production location. This thesis has aimed to improve existing tools to evaluate district heatin
Casein micelles are key structures in milk, influencing stability, nutritional properties, and functionality. Their hierarchical architecture, which is dynamic and responsive to environmental conditions, plays a crucial role in dairy processing. Understanding the structural and dynamic properties of casein micelles is essential for optimizing dairy products and processing techniques. This study pr
Purpose: Radiation therapy (RT) causes tissue damage and inflammation. Because cytokines play a key role in such processes, their expression levels can be an indicator of cell and tissue toxicity. This critical review aims to explore whether levels of circulating inflammatory biomarkers in peripheral blood are associated with proton- or photon-based therapy in the pelvic area and how these levels
Controllable hydrogen generation rate of Al-Ga-based on-site hydrogen supply materials significantly impacts their practical application. In many scenarios, the hydrolysis reaction occurs at elevated temperatures, which is a factor often overlooked in its effect on reaction kinetics. This study investigates the relationship between grain size and reaction rate in Al-Ga-based alloys for hydrogen ge
Educational development initiatives in the form of short-lived, isolated pedagogical courses may at best change the thinking and practice of a few pioneers, and then perhaps only temporarily. It is only possible to successfully address the need that such initiatives are intended to meet if the impact is lasting and effects a cultural change locally at the university. In this study, we look beyond
Robots, which were seen as gimmicks in science fiction stories until not so long ago, have already crossed into reality. Thanks to the ever-growing autonomy of robots and ever-expanding variety of roles assigned to them, they are becoming more integrated into the ordinary course of everyday life. With the advent of social robots that can engage human beings on personal levels, for the first time,
The Middle Danube (Carpathian) Basin is considered to encompass some of the thickest and most complete records of aeolian dust deposition in Europe, covering the last two glacial–interglacial cycles. In this study, independent, published chronologies based on absolute dating methods were compiled for 34 loess-palaeosol sequences and modelled using Bayesian statistics. Mass accumulation rates (MARs
The book’s aim is to systematize normative assessments of the Court of Justice of the European Union’s decision-making process, defining ‘normative’ as an evaluation based on openly acknowledged, theoretically informed standards that take into account the institutional reality of the Court. This is important because the stakes are very high: the Court is a very influential institution, and the mot
Adsorption isotherms for a packed column consisting of fructose and silica gel in contact with a liquid phase consisting of oleic acid and fructose mono- and di-oleate at 65 °C were determined to assist the column’s utilization in a bioreactor system for the solvent-free lipase-catalyzed synthesis of saccharide ester biosurfactants. The liquid-phase fructose content was very low, ranging from 0.00
Chrysene-containing polymers functionalized with piperidinium- and quinuclidinium cations, respectively, are prepared by polyhydroxyalkylation and studied as anion exchange membranes (AEMs). Experimental results, supported by theoretical considerations, indicate that the chrysene units significantly enhance alkaline stability; a poly(chrysene piperidinium) AEM shows only 16% total ionic loss, comp
The major challenges faced by confectionery supply chain are lack of information, traceability, managing the ownership of goods across supply chains, inability to track vendors in real-time. Blockchain and Internet of Things (IoT) in Industry 4.0 era help organisations to overcome these challenges by guaranteeing authentic information, real-time visibility, and transparency across the supply chain
UNLABELLED: Herein we present a system to obtain fibers from clickable elastin-like recombinamers (ELRs) that crosslink in situ during the electrospinning process itself, with no need for any further treatment to stabilize them. These ELR-click fibers are completely stable under in vitro conditions. A wrinkled fiber morphology is obtained. In addition to a random fiber orientation, oriented fibers

Med stöd i den traditionella synen på generativ AIsom ett otillåtet hjälpmedel, där studenten genom tekniken inte självformulerar de skriftliga inlämningarna som ska bedömas, beklagar siglärarkollegor över hur skrivuppgiften urholkas och ris
Drawing on political readings of Freud, this paper probes the anxieties and fears driving anti-gender consumer activism, an emerging form of consumer politics in which a cisheteronormative subject defends his consumer privileges in the name of “the family.” We examine how American anti-gender activists opposed Disney’s shift from its conservative, family-oriented brand image.

Brief Admission by Self-referral (BA), a standardized crisis intervention for individuals with repeated self-harm or suicidal behavior, was adapted for adolescents from 13 years in Region Skåne, Sweden, in 2018. BA aims to offer access to support based on autonomy and has been associated with reduced need of emergency care. Interviews with adolescents and legal guardians have pointed to BA as valu
