OBJECTIVES: Opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) is a promising alternative to traditional opioid-based anesthesia. Research indicates that OFA reduces postoperative opioid consumption and related adverse effects while maintaining effective pain control and patient safety. Despite these benefits, clinical adoption of OFA remains limited, possible due to gaps in evidence. To bridge this knowledge gap, a we
INTRODUCTION: Survival and healthcare for patients with congenital heart disease have improved, and the number of pregnancies among women of childbearing age with congenital heart disease has increased. Our aim was to investigate obstetric outcomes in a large retrospective, national registry study of women with congenital heart disease compared to controls.MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study included
Reusing building products is a feasible strategy for the construction and real estate industry to mitigate its climate impact. Sustainable reuse must be executed with quality assurance and defined responsibilities to encourage clients and avoid suboptimal outcomes. Despite the growing need to quality-assure reused products, there is limited research, particularly from an industry perspective. Prev
Objective To evaluate any association of the presence and severity of nine major symptoms (pain, tiredness, drowsiness, nausea, appetite, breathlessness, depression, anxiety, and perceived well-being) with sleep quality and duration in elderly men.Design and setting Cross-sectional analysis within the population-based VAScular and Chronic Obstructive Lung disease study (VASCOL) conducted in southe
Improving energy efficiency in agriculture is key to reducing environmental impact. Lighting in animal buildings is one of the most cost‐effective energy saving measures. Lighting retrofit offers a short payback period, enhances animal welfare and production, and aligns with regulations for phasing out fluorescent lighting. The purpose of this study was to investigate the energy-saving potential o
Being one of the largest industries, the agricultural sector is central to achieving EU and UN sustainability goals. However, the role of sustainable business model innovation (SBMI) in low-tech sectors, such as agriculture, remains empirically underexplored, as existing research has largely focused on high-tech industries and large firms. The paper addresses this gap by examining how SBMI can sup
Boreal forests are globally important carbon (C) sinks, but strategies for maximising their climate benefit remain under debate. Major uncertainties in this discussion arise from contrasting sink-source estimates, which largely emanate from inherent limitations of standard measurement techniques to distinct spatio-temporal scales. Here, we use a spatially-nested measurement framework that integrat
Objective. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of an intervention with advance provision of emergency contraceptive pills (ECP), condoms, and extended information to a targeted group of teenage girls, compared with a control group, 12 months after intervention. Material and methods. A randomized controlled trial among 420 girls, 15-19 years old, requesting emergency contraceptio
Background: Pain in children is undertreated. An assessment scale co-designed with children, parents, and health care professionals could lead to more effective pain assessments and treatment strategies aimed at reducing pain and pain-related symptoms. There are analogue scales validated for self-report of pain in children, but today, children regularly use digital technology, which healthcare sho
Adaptive reuse of buildings, repurposing existing structures for new functions, is gaining attention for its potential in sustainable development and optimisation of building materials usage. This practice is particularly relevant in the building sector, where space heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems represent a significant portion of project costs, embodied energy, greenhou
