Sleep interventions in pediatric oncology: A systematic review of the evidence

Sleep concerns are common during pediatric cancer treatment and can last into survivorship. The current systematic review sought to identify intervention studies that addressed sleep as a primary or secondary outcome during pediatric cancer treatment up to 5 years after completing treatment. Quality assessment was rated using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (

Transatlantic Transitions: Responses to the Russian Threat in the Baltic Sea Region, 2014-2020

Det övergripande syftet med avhandlingen är att utforska alliansbildning och allianshantering i en regional miljö, genom att analysera hur det ryska hotet i Östersjöregionen bemöttes under åren 2014-2020. Studien utvecklar i synnerhet begreppet ”informellt allierad” och belyser alliansbildning ur ett småstatsperspektiv. I linje med ett realistiskt tillvägagångssätt tar studien det internationella The overall aim of this thesis is to explore alliance formation and management in a regional setting, by analyzing responses to the Russian threat in the Baltic Sea region during the years 2014-2020. In particular, the study develops the concept of an informal ally and sheds lights on alliance formation from a small state perspective. In line with a realist approach, the study takes the impact of

A relational approach to youth healthcare: Examining young people's, parents' and clinicians' experiences in the context of variations in sex characteristics

According to popular understandings, children grow from a state of dependence to eventually become independent adults. Interdependence helps to disrupt the in/dependence binary and is a useful concept for making sense of the experiences young people with variations in sex characteristics in relation to healthcare. This study used semi-structured interviews with 32 health professionals, 33 caregive

Structural barriers to sufficiency: the contribution of research on elites

‘Sufficiency’ has become a key term within sustainability science. The satisfaction of basic human needs for all and for multiple generations is only possible if coupled to the implementation of ecological ceilings that prevent wealthy groups from disproportionate production and consumption patterns and energy use. While much sufficiency research has focused on the poor and how to provide correspo

A spectroscopic and structural study on the solvent-promoted stereospecific self-assembly of new Porphyrin-Bile Salt conjugates

The chiral bile salt sodium cholate has been covalently linked to tetra-aryl-porphyrins, conferring them an extrinsic chirality and obtaining new molecules with high tendency to aggregate in solution. The chirality transfer from the molecular to the nano- and meso-scale has been investigated by promoting the self-assembly of the conjugates balancing the ratio of aqueous/organic solvent mixtures an

Michael Edgerton, Works for Piano, Moritz Ernst

Moritz Ernst performs three works for piano by Michael Edgerton, including: Tr 1. Thrush; Tr 2. Noise is interrupting my practice: silence is when my reaction is quiet. silence is my protest against the way things are; Tr 3-5 First Sonata

Scandinavian trade unions’ guidelines regarding nurses’ use of social media: a Fairclough-inspired critical discourse analysis

Introduction: Social media provides nurses with tools to share information, debate healthcare policy and practice issues, and engage in interpersonal interactions. Historically, also in Scandinavia, nurses’ trade unions have taken the lead in defining nursing as a profession and supporting nurses in ‘conducting good nursing’. However, it is unexplored how trade unions guide nurses in social media

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease has become the most common cause of hepatocellular carcinoma in Sweden : A nationwide cohort study

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most prevalent chronic liver disease globally, and can lead to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a leading cause of cancer-related death. We aimed to determine the extent to which MASLD is an increasing cause of HCC in Sweden and to determine clinical characteristics associated with underlying MASLD. Using the Swedish quality re

Observed beach nourishment development in a semi-enclosed coastal embayment

Beaches are important coastal features that provide vital ecosystem services; however, these systems are threatened by coastal erosion, sea-level rise, and coastal squeeze. Beach nourishments are a commonly applied coastal protection measure to mitigate erosion and flood risks while maintaining or enhancing recreational values. Nourishments vary in scale from mega-nourishments to small-scale nouri

Inverse parameter identification and model updating for Cross-laminated Timber substructures

Finite Element (FE) model updating is crucial for identifying key parameters in structural design and improving predictive accuracy. Despite extensive research on advanced FE procedures approved for user applications, persistent disparities remain in real-world scenarios, especially for complex materials like wood. Capturing accurate mechanical characteristics with traditional models poses challen

Efficient extraction of textile dyes using reusable acrylic-based smart polymers

Water pollution from industrial or household waste, containing dyes from the textile industry, poses a significant environmental challenge requiring immediate attention. In this study, we have developed a crosslinked-smart-polymer film based on 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate copolymerized with other hydrophilic and hydrophobic commercial monomers, and its efficacy in removing 21 different tex

Reusable and effective polyacrylic membranes for mecoprop and bentazon extractions

This study introduces reusable polyacrylic membranes, fabricated from commercially available monomers (1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone and methylmethacrylate), as a promising approach for pesticide extraction. These membranes effectively remove the commonly used herbicides mecoprop (RE ≈ 99%) and bentazon (RE ≈ 95%) at low concentrations, which pose water contamination risks due to their water-soluble prope

Insights on macro- and microscopic interactions between Confidor and cyclodextrin-based nanosponges

Imidacloprid is one of the most widely used soluble neonicotinoid insecticide, which is non–volatile and persists in the soil, with hazardous effects on birds, honeybees, and mammals. It is used in both agricultural and veterinary applications, and is found in at least 7% of European topsoils. One of the commercially available formulations is Confidor O–TEQ® that exhibits higher retention, spreadi
