Australia is already experiencing climate change losses and damages. Australian governments and other institutional actors acknowledge vulnerability, yet they centre building resilience to climate change. Resilience is frequently used as a synonym for vulnerability reduction, but important ideological differences exist. Indeed, scholars have suggested that resilience, as a politico-ideological too

Aim To determine characteristics associated with more severe outcomes in a global registry of people with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and COVID-19.Methods People with SLE and COVID-19 reported in the COVID-19 Global Rheumatology Alliance registry from March 2020 to June 2021 were included. The ordinal outcome was defined as: (1) not hospitalised, (2) hospitalised with no oxygenation, (3) ho

Bakgrund/Syfte: Aktivitetsträning är en ständigt pågående process som innefattar social interaktion och lärande. Synen på människan som en aktiv varelse är central i arbetsterapi och insatserna rör ofta vardagens olika aktivitetsområden så som personlig vård, boende, fritid och arbete. Görandet av aktiviteterna kan beskrivas som en interaktiv social process där personen har ett ständigt utbyte med

This chapter introduces the theme of gendered knowledge production and proposes new understandings of epistemic agency, epistemic power and epistemic violence. These theoretical concepts are employed to critically approach the Women, Peace and Security agenda as a system of knowledge that comes with both possibilities and constraints. The chapter conceptualizes epistemic agency as embodied and nar

The fourth issue of the yearbook History of Intellectual Culture (HIC) features a thematic section on the production of knowledge related to the Holocaust. The contributions focus on the circulation of knowledge via letters and other forms of written communication within and among survivor historical commissions after the Second World War with an emphasis on the interplay of gender and other diffe

The Kunming-Montréal Global Biodiversity Framework, adopted at COP15, establishes a clear mandate to mobilize funding from diverse sources to address the escalating biodiversity crisis. Despite growing awareness and commitment to biodiversity conservation, a substantial financing gap persists, hindering efforts to protect and restore ecosystems effectively. This chapter provides an in-depth examin

Feel overwhelmed but realise the need to understand what's going on? Academic analytical frameworks can help.European countries, and Denmark in particular, are scrambling to respond to threats from US officials over the future of Greenland.Having successfully taken out the leadership of Venezuela in a raid on January 3, an emboldened US government is talking about simply taking Greenland for itsel

Inclusive urbanisation is being promoted in development discourse, and a scholarly debate is emerging, but the conceptualisation and empirical understanding of this process should be placed in relation to urbanisation trends. In sub-Saharan Africa more than a quarter of the urban population lives in small towns. These are predicted to experience the most rapid population growth in the coming decad

Academic skills such as reading, writing, critical thinking and information literacy are foundational to university-level learning. However, although students often have a certain level of academic literacy on arrival, their skills do not necessarily match the context-specific requirements of higher education and often need to be explicitly taught. In contrast to

The emergence of acute, severe non hepA–E hepatitis of unknown etiology (ASHUE) has attracted global concern owing to the very young age of the patients and its unknown etiology. Although this condition has been linked to several possible causes, including viral infection, drugs and/or toxin exposure, the exact cause remains unknown; this makes treatment recommendation very difficult. In this revi

The Large Interferometer For Exoplanets (LIFE) is a proposed space mission that enables the spectral characterization of the thermal emission of exoplanets in the solar neighborhood. The mission is designed to search for global atmospheric biosignatures on dozens of temperate terrestrial exoplanets and it will naturally investigate the diversity of other worlds. Here, we review the status of the m

This article examines female participation as a strategy for sustainable development. The increasing interest in female participation as a sustainability strategy on an international scale, underscores the need for critical examinations of this approach. Centring on contemporary Sweden as a prominent site of this development, this article investigates the municipal use of gendered design processes

Target-controlled infusion (TCI) constitutes a clinically available alternative to manually administering the infusion rate of the anesthetic drug propofol. In TCI, a drug infusion profile is optimized to track a reference trajectory of blood plasma or effect site (brain cortex) drug concentration, or a corresponding clinical effect. TCI is a pure feed-forward openloop strategy, fully reliant on a
