The aim of this study was to examine the experiences regarding the work with EU-migrants among social workers in the nonprofit sector, whom comes in contact with the phenomenon. Furthermore, we wanted to highlight the work challenges in relation to EU-migrants, but also in relation to cooperation with other affiliates. In the study we used semi-structured interviews, i.e. a qualitative approach. F

Josefin Palmqvist Risk- och sårbarhetsanalyser i Skånska kommuner Idag är det ett faktum att människans framfart påverkar miljö och klimat på ett negativt sätt. Mänsklig aktivitet leder till ett förändrat klimat, en sådan förändring av klimatet leder i sin tur till effekter på samhället i form av exempelvis översvämningar, värmeböljor och skyfall. Därför är det viktigare än någonsin att kommunerThis paper highlights the work with risk and vulnerability in Lund’s municipality. It also shows how three other municipalities in Scania work with these questions and how their work is different from their work in Lund’s municipality. How these municipalities’ work with these types of questions is presented through a review of different reports linked to each municipality and also through a prese

Abstract Introduction: Understanding customer satisfaction is a central objective of organiza- tions. Besides, satisfaction is an indicator of how customers perceive the quality of an offered product or service. Relating to the literature, the customer satisfaction of interna- tional students has become increasingly important for higher educational institutions in recent years due to globalization

Today there are still single family houses with direct electric heating systems, even though this is an expensive and inefficient way of heating a house. It is common to install an air-to-air heat pump that requires less electricity to produce the same amount of heat as a direct electricity heating system. These heat pumps do not produce any energy for domestic hot water since the water is heated

Skolan har ingen lång tradition av att arbeta laborativt i matematik och dynamisk programvara är ett sätt att fylla denna brist. Dynamisk programvara låter eleven gå i dialog, utmanar, skapar nyfikenhet, åskådliggör begrepp och underlättar inlärningen. Det krävs emellertid att lärare är villiga att sätta sig in i de relativt nya möjligheterna eftersom datoranvändning i matematik- och fysikundervis

Pancreatic (PC), colorectal (CRC), hepatocellular (HCC), and gallbladder (GC) cancers together account for nearly 20% of all cancer cases. However, specific biomarkers and therapeutic targets for these cancers are lacking. Diagnosing these cancers early and providing timely, appropriate treatment to improve patient outcomes is crucial. In this context, previous studies, including ours, have highli

Background: The combination of hematuria, proteinuria and a reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in patients with no previous diagnosis of chronic kidney disease is widely considered a strong indication for kidney biopsy. This study aimed to compare the frequencies of diseases leading to this symptom constellation, and to explore differences related to age and sex using data from kidney biopsy

Background: Current guidelines for the treatment of severe TBI recommend maintaining a cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) at 60–70 mmHg. In our institution, as well as others, an alternative algorithm—originally named the Lund concept—has been used. This treatment algorithm employs metoprolol and clonidine to limit CPP, accepting levels below 60 mmHg, with the aim of reducing cerebral edema. Previo

Objective The investigation of complement factors in lupus nephritis (LN) in relation to treatment response and the impact of underlying genetics of C4. Methods Seventy-seven patients with active LN confirmed by a kidney biopsy and in whom second biopsies had been performed after immunosuppressive treatment were included. Complement factors C3, C4, C4d and C4d/C4 ratio were evaluated at the biopsy

Public health can be immediately and substantially improved by policies that also mitigate climate change over the longer term. However, implementation of these policies has been slowed at least in part by doubts and lack of awareness of these health co-benefits. To address this barrier to progress, we demonstrate how an illustrative set of interventions led to environmental, health, and economic

Increasing total organic carbon (TOC) concentrations concurrent with a darkening in water colour in boreal freshwaters is called brownification. This can affect crucial ecosystem services. Our study investigated constructed wetland optimisation regarding depth and water residence time (WRT) during different seasons to remedy dark water colour and high TOC concentrations, while retaining nitrogen r

Background/Objectives: Undergoing intensive cancer treatment, such as allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation, challenges the entire life situation of patients and their family caregivers. A prerequisite for effective care is that interventions are tailored to the unique circumstances of each individual. The aim of this study was to examine the feasibility of a developed person-centred

Objectives: Patients with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) presenting with cerebral malperfusion have significantly poorer postoperative outcomes, making the decision whether to perform acute surgery difficult. The aim of this study was to investigate types of neurological symptoms and radiological findings and their association with permanent neurological injury and mortality following ATAA

Abstract—In numerous image-based studies, such as cell studies,a plethora of information is embedded in cell objects, whichmust first be accurately extracted before it can be utilized forfurther downstream analysis and linked to biological processesexplored in the original experiment. One such technique forthis purpose is instance segmentation. In our study, whichcell death and associated pathways

The digitalisation of adolescents’ everyday lives has created new contexts in which intimate partner violence can occur. Digital intimate partner violence includes controlling, monitoring, and harassing behaviours carried out through digital tools such as social media, messaging applications, and location-sharing services. These behaviours are often normalised among young people, which makes the v

This study aimed to examine how social workers work with children’s right to be heard and with assessments of the best interests of the child in social services investigations, as well as how they manage the tension between these two principles. The study adopted a qualitative approach and is based on semistructured interviews. The participants consisted of six investigative social workers from di
