Background: Gaming disorder (GD) has been introduced as a new diagnosis in the International Classification of Disease 11 (ICD-11). Currently, there's limited understanding of how various video games may differentially contribute to the risk of developing GD. The main aim of this study was to examine the relationship between individuals' game genre preferences, their preferred games' monetization

BACKGROUND: The wasabi receptor, also known as the Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) ion channel, is a potential target for development of repellents for insects, like the pine weevil (Hylobius abietis) feeding on conifer seedlings and causing damage in forestry. Heterologous expression of TRPA1 from pine weevil in the yeast Pichia pastoris can potentially provide protein for structur

A phase-field ductile fracture formulation for orthotropic paperboard materials is proposed, based on an anisotropic, multi-surface elastoplastic model describing the in-plane behavior of paperboard. A variational statement for the finite-step elastoplastic problem is extended to include the variational description of Griffith-type brittle fracture by a phase-field gradient term. The interaction b

Family reunification is, in the words of the European Union (EU) Family Reunification Directive (2003/86/EC), a ‘necessary way of making family life possible’ and preserving family unity. Yet, barriers exist which hinder refugees’ realisation of their right to family reunification. By taking the plight of Eritrean refugees in Europe as a pertinent case study, this paper shows the obstacles that “p

Background. Airborne SARS-CoV-2 plays a prominent role in COVID-19 transmission. Numerous studies have sampled air from patient rooms, but airborne spread to other hospital areas such as corridors is less investigated. Methods. Size-fractionated aerosol particles were collected weekly, with 12 hours of sampling time daily, in corridors at two infectious disease wards in southern Sweden between Mar

Despite the enormous economic and health-related burdens caused by respiratory infectious diseases globally, there are significant knowledge gaps regarding how these are spread by aerosols. The covid-19 pandemic made it clear that understanding airborne transmission is especially important in healthcare, where workers and patients are highly exposed to sources of virus. This thesis aims to advance

This chapter is a contribution to ongoing discussions about Nordic academic feminism. It asks why and how this field continues to assume and reproduce whiteness as its naturalised point of departure and orientation and for forming a Nordic feminist “we.” It is largely conceptual, and I draw on a lived archive of 15 years of participant observation in ”Nordic” academic feminism as it has taken shap

In the 2000s, same sex partnership laws, new reproductive technologies, and legislation rendering lesbian couples and single women eligible for state-funded assisted reproduction with donated gametes in the Scandinavian nations has resulted in significant changes in family formation. Drawing on two separate qualitative studies, this paper scrutinizes Scandinavia’s alleged progressive LGBTQ politic
