This study explores Malmö's definition of social sustainability. Social sustainability still lacks a universal definition, creating a wide margin of interpretation and free space to act or not to act. The concept has grown as a topic on the political agenda and the City of Malmö has in recent years launched major projects to influence the social sustainability in a positive direction. Among ot

Internet has made information more easy to get, but also more difficult to retrieve. There is a need for information retrieval systems that assure accurate, reliable and up to date information. Quite a number of both commercial and non commercial search services has been developed on the Internet. We have made a qualitative study of one for-pay product in particular, NetS k, produced by BTJ (Bibli

The aim with this paper is to investigate how the Social Democratic Party (SAP) deals with the question of economic migrants, or more specifically how the problem is represented by the Social Democratic Party, and how this representation has developed over time. The SAP's theory became recently contested by a competing theory that was caused by the predicted future demographic development in S

The aim of this essay is, with reference to a close study on the negotiation delegations of the Tenant Association, to examine the principals of democracy in relation to distribution of power and participation, efficiency and professionalism. This is done with the intention to understand the Tenant Association's view on its own commission as negotiator, according to democracy. The investigatio

Background Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in women. Survival is generally considered favourable, yet some patients remain at risk of early death. We aimed to assess whether comprehensive whole-genome sequencing (WGS) linked to mortality data could add prognostic value to existing clinical measures and identify patients who might respond to targeted therapeutics. Methods In t

This study introduces the concept of Collective Permanent Supportive Housing (CPSH), tailored for older adults with histories of homelessness and long-term substance use. CPSH offers residents individual apartments and secure tenures, using a harm reduction approach. The study, being designed to identify the benefits and risks of CPSH, was based on (i) a quantitative dataset with a national survey

Objective: The aim of this study was to explore experiences and challenges in handling feedback and criticism among early career surgeons. Design: This study is part of a prospective, exploratory, longitudinal study evaluating surgical residents throughout residency. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with medical doctors applying to a locum or residency position in a surgical specialty. An

Seagrass meadows are vital habitats, modifying hydrodynamic energy flows and sustaining biodiversity in the benthic environment. As such, there is a growing interest in using seagrass as a nature-based solution for coastal adaptation. However, planting seagrass in hydrodynamically exposed environments is challenging, and the trajectories and timescales of biodiversity recovery are not well studied

Pituitary tumours, originating from endocrine cells of the anterior pituitary, are quite common, and in most cases well-controlled by surgery or medical treatment. However, a small subset of pituitary tumours presents with multiple local recurrences or tumour progression despite combined surgical, medical or radiotherapeutic treatment. These are known as aggressive pituitary tumours (APT); also ca

I ett samhälle i kontinuerlig utveckling som kräver expansion och effektiva lösningar och har stora stadskärnor med kulturhistoriskt värdefull bebyggelse kan det finnas en inneboende konflikt mellan stadsförnyelse och bevarande av kulturhistoria. Äldre byggnader som är en del av Sveriges levande historia kan utgöra både hinder och möjligheter i nuvarande stadsförnyelse. Ett arv som inte bör rensas

Enabling journeys from door-to-door is an essential part of attracting people towards public transport and away from the private car. Facilitating such journeys requires comprehensive and integrated planning across modal and spatial boundaries. Public transport governance, however, is often constrained by fragmented, multi-level structures and regulatory barriers that limit the ability of responsi

The retreat of the modern liberal order in contemporary democracies can be understood as co-constituted with the normalisation of the far right. The far right has increasingly accessed the political ‘mainstream’ through the enabling of erstwhile-disavowing centre-right and right-wing counterparts. In contexts of political ‘victory’, the identity (re)formation of these mainstream right-wing subject

Purpose of Review: Summarize recent literature on: understanding of and emotional reactions to type 1 diabetes (T1D) risk; willingness to be screened; behavioral responses to T1D-risk screening results; and provider attitudes/concerns about general population screening. Recent Findings: Difficulty understanding what it means to be at increased risk for T1D is common; anxiety about increased risk m

Membrane technology plays a crucial role in food by-product valorization, especially in protein recovery. Initially applied to whey protein extraction from cheese production, it enabled the concentration and purification of whey, leading to the production of protein concentrates and isolates. This success was extended to other animal proteins like blood plasma, fish proteins, and albumen.With a gr

Strategic sustainability communication in organizations managed by financial objectives is characterized by paradoxical tensions that arise within the organization when sustainability goals are added. Yet the dominant perspective on sustainability among practitioners and researchers is the Business Case Frame (BCF) which is ill-suited to address these tensions. This chapter is built on a qualitati

AIMS: Although age-related immune deterioration has been implicated as a mechanistic contributor to cardiovascular disease (CVD), evidence for an impairment of adaptive immune function in individuals with clinically verified presence of atherosclerosis is lacking.METHODS AND RESULTS: To test the association between atherosclerosis and immune function, we evaluated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine responsiveness
