An emerging governmentality of climate change loss and damage

Loss and damage is the “third pillar” of international climate governance alongside mitigation and adaptation. When mitigation and adaptation fail, losses and damages occur. Scholars have been reacting to international political discourse centred around governing actual or potential severe losses and damages from climate change. Large gaps exist in relation to understanding the underlying power di

Diagnostic performance of biomarker S100B and guideline adherence in routine care of mild head trauma

BackgroundThe Scandinavian Neurotrauma Committee (SNC) has recommended the use of serum S100B as a biomarker for mild low-risk Traumatic brain injuries (TBI). This study aimed to assess the adherence to the SNC guidelines in clinical practice and the diagnostic performance of S100B in patients with TBI. The aims of this study were to examine adherence to the SNC guideline and the diagnostic accura

Clinical characteristics, impairment, and psychiatric morbidity in 102 youth with misophonia

BackgroundThere is little information on the clinical presentation, functional impact, and psychiatric characteristics of misophonia in youth, an increasingly recognized syndrome characterized by high emotional reactivity to certain sounds and associated visual stimuli.MethodOne-hundred-two youth (8–17 years-old) with misophonia and their parents were recruited and compared with 94 youth with anxi

Measuring symptoms of obsessive-compulsive and related disorders using a single dimensional self-report scale

Background: Obsessions and compulsions are heterogenous but can be classified into obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), hoarding disorder (HD), hair-pulling disorder (HPD), and skin-picking disorder (SPD). OCD is in itself heterogenous, with symptoms clustering around four major symptom dimensions: contamination/cleaning, symmetry/ordering, taboo obsessions, and har

Mammographic calcifications undergoing percutaneous biopsy : outcome in women with and without a personal history of breast cancer

Purpose: To compare the positive predictive values (PPVs) of BI-RADS categories used to assess pure mammographic calcifications in women with and without a previous history of breast cancer (PHBC). Materials and methods: In this retrospective study, all consecutive pure mammographic calcifications (n = 320) undergoing a stereotactic biopsy between 2016 and 2018 were identified. Mammograms were eva

AD borde ha beaktat EU-rätten

DEBATT. Parterna i Foodora-målet har inte yrkat på att frågorna bör belysas utifrån ett EU-rättsligt perspektiv, men det befriar inte AD från att beakta EU-rätten i sin helhet, skriver forskarna Maria Fritz, Ann-Christine Hartzén och Annamaria Westregård, vid Lunds universitet.

Why Firms Grow : The Roles of Institutions, Trade, and Technology during Swedish Industrialization

Industrialization and the emergence of a manufacturing sector are generally perceived as key drivers for countries to see economic growth and increases in living standards. Only 200 years ago, most countries were relatively poor and had similarly low living standards. With industrialization and the growth of manufacturing, primarily Western countries pulled ahead and noticed sustained increases in

Pharmacokinetics of Intravenously (DIZ101), Subcutaneously (DIZ102), and Intestinally (LCIG) Infused Levodopa in Advanced Parkinson Disease

Background and ObjectivesIntestinal levodopa/carbidopa gel infusion (LCIG) is superior to oral treatment in advanced Parkinson disease. The primary objective of this trial was to investigate whether continuous subcutaneous or intravenous infusion with a continuously buffered acidic levodopa/carbidopa solution yields steady-state plasma concentrations of levodopa that are equivalent in magnitude, a

Clinically Relevant Changes for Cognitive Outcomes in Preclinical and Prodromal Cognitive Stages : Implications for Clinical Alzheimer Trials

Background and ObjectivesIdentifying a clinically meaningful change in cognitive test score is essential when using cognition as an outcome in clinical trials. This is especially relevant because clinical trials increasingly feature novel composites of cognitive tests. Our primary objective was to establish minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs) for commonly used cognitive tests, using a

Experimental warming during incubation improves cold tolerance of blue tit (Cyanistes caeruleus) chicks

Climate change and increasing air temperature may alter environmental conditions for developing birds, with a range of phenotypic consequences for offspring. The thermal environment during incubation may affect the trade-off between growth and thermoregulation, but the effects of temperature on the ontogeny of endothermy are not fully understood. Therefore, we experimentally tested whether heating

Generating Scenarios with Diverse Pedestrian Behaviors for Autonomous Vehicle Testing

There exist several datasets for developing self-driving car methodologies. Manually collected datasets impose inherent limitations on the variability of test cases and it is particularly difficult to acquire challenging scenarios, e.g. ones involving collisions with pedestrians. A way to alleviate this is to consider automatic generation of safety-critical scenarios for autonomous vehicle (AV) te
