This paper addresses Jem Bendell’s concept of “deep adaptation” in the Anthropocene through the lens of everyday urban practices in contemporary Northern Europe. It proposes that this “deep adaptation” should be defined less in relation to a socio-ecological “collapse” and more through everyday occurrences in present- day urban environments.Entering into a critical conversation with Bendell’s conc

The main characteristic of postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is tachycardia when standing, without a drop in blood pressure. Patients describe lightheadedness and palpitations when upright, particularly when standing, which sometimes leads to syncope. Patients may experience impaired quality of life and functional disability, which can be economically devastating.1–3 The syndrome is

Economic analysis has produced ample insights on how international trade and climate policy interact. Trade presents both opportunities and obstacles, and invites the question of how domestic climate policies can be effective in a global economy integrated through international trade. Particularly problematic is the potential relocation of production to regions with low climate standards. Measures

Background: Listeriosis is a food-borne disease caused by the Gram-positive Bacillota (Firmicute) bacterium Listeria monocytogenes. Clinical L. monocytogenes isolates are often resistant to clinically used lincosamide clindamycin, thus excluding clindamycin as a viable treatment option.Objectives: We have established newly developed lincosamide iboxamycin as a potential novel antilisterial agent.M

Introduction: Older adults spend more time at home after retirement, and the home becomes a central place for activity. While research indicates that indoor lighting, exposure to daylight, physical activity and sleep interact to influence functioning, mood and daily rhythm, strategies are needed to promote behavioural changes to optimise these factors in daily life. The objective is to design an iIntroduction: Older adults spend more time at home after retirement, and the home becomes a central place for activity.

Background: Previous studies have suggested that targeting the site of latest mechanical activation of the left ventricle (LV) results in improved cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) outcomes. It is not known whether these benefits are sustained over medium-term follow-up. Objective: To assess the clinical outcome of imaging-guided LV lead position. Methods: We sought to assess the medium-term

This chapter explores the relationship between public agencies and archival authorities in Denmark and Sweden regarding recordkeeping practices, born-digital records, and archival legislation. We provide a 360-degree look at recordkeeping within the Nordic Model, taking our point of departure from the records continuum model. The Danish and Swedish approaches we discuss predate the records continu

This literature review offers a continuum of arguments for family historians being a vital part of the digital heritage practices found in the combined ecosystem of libraries, archives and the digital humanities. In digital heritage, there is an increased focus on public participation efforts such as crowdsourcing and educational programmes, emphasising representation, inclusivity and diversity. T

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are neurodevelopmental disorders with an early onset. Guidelines recommend a careful evaluation of developmental history when assessing the disorders, but it is unclear how children with ADHD and ASD differ from their peers growing up. In this study, physical, family, psychological, social, and educational informati

BackgroundNeonates with critical congenital heart disease require early intervention. Four-dimensional (4D) flow may facilitate surgical planning and improve outcome, but accuracy and precision in neonates are unknown.PurposeTo 1) validate two-dimensional (2D) and 4D flow MRI in a phantom and investigate the effect of spatial and temporal resolution; 2) investigate accuracy and precision of 4D flo

The interest in carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP) is growing due to their high strength and stiffness compared to their weight, in industries such as automotive and aerospace. This creates a high demand for more effective production methods. Volumetric induction heating of the electrically conductive carbon fibres enable unmatched heat rates and can be used both during manufacturing and join

The present paper reports findings from a controlled large-scale (N = 1018) experimental study investigating how four different gender-fair forms influenced native French speakers’ estimated percentage of women compared to the masculine form (interpretable as generic) in 22 non-stereotyped French role nouns. The findings show that the masculine form generated lower perceived percentages of women c

“Urban Sharing in Toronto” explores the landscape of the sharing economy in the city context. This research is a result of a Mobile Research Lab conducted by 8 researchers from Lund university in 2019. Specific focus is on three sectors: sharing of space, mobility and physical goods. For each sector, we discuss the drivers and barriers to the sharing economy, the associated sustainability impacts,

This city report is the result of a Mobile Research Lab conducted online in Shanghai during spring 2020. The Mobile Research Lab involves a combination of methods, including case studies, interviews, observations, expert panels, and in-situ field work. This report presents insights gained by the Urban Sharing research team Oksana Mont (PI), Andrius Plepys, Yuliya Voytenko Palgan, Matthias Lehner,
