Inclusive conservation and the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework : Tensions and prospects

The draft Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework commits to achievement of equity and justice outcomes and represents a “relational turn” in how we understand inclusive conservation. Although “inclusivity” is drawn on as a means to engage diverse stakeholders, widening the framing of inclusivity can create new tensions with regard to how to manage protected areas. We first offer a set of tensions

Diclofenac for acute postoperative pain in children

Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To assess the efficacy and safety of diclofenac (any dose) for acute postoperative pain management in children compared with placebo, other active comparators, or diclofenac administered by either different routes (e.g. oral, rectal, etc.) or strategies (e.g. as needed versus as scheduled).

Comorbidities in osteoarthritis (ComOA) : a combined cross-sectional, case-control and cohort study using large electronic health records in four European countries

Introduction Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the leading chronic conditions in the older population. People with OA are more likely to have one or more other chronic conditions than those without. However, the temporal associations, clusters of the comorbidities, role of analgesics and the causality and variation between populations are yet to be investigated. This paper describes the protocol of a

Continuation of fluoropyrimidine treatment with S-1 after cardiotoxicity on capecitabine- or 5-fluorouracil-based therapy in patients with solid tumours : a multicentre retrospective observational cohort study

Background: Capecitabine- or 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-based chemotherapy is widely used in many solid tumours, but is associated with cardiotoxicity. S-1 is a fluoropyrimidine with low rates of cardiotoxicity, but evidence regarding the safety of switching to S-1 after 5-FU- or capecitabine-associated cardiotoxicity is scarce. Patients and methods: This retrospective study (NCT04260269) was conducted

Controlled assembly of retinal cells on fractal and Euclidean electrodes

Controlled assembly of retinal cells on artificial surfaces is important for fundamental cell research and medical applications. We investigate fractal electrodes with branches of vertically- aligned carbon nanotubes and silicon dioxide gaps between the branches that form repeating patterns spanning from micro- to milli-meters, along with single-scaled Euclidean electrodes. Fluorescence and electr

Honeybee-Specific Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli

Honeybees are one of our most important insects, not only for their pollination services but also for their production of honey. Honey is the main food for honeybees, produced from collected nectars and transported to the hive. Humans have consumed this mysterious food and applied it since ancient times in traditional medicine around the world. In 2005 we discovered an unknown key to honeybees’ he

The shifting society syndrome : Values, baselines, and Swedish forest conservation in the 1930s and 2010s

This study addresses a response to shifting baseline syndrome (SBS), a syndrome implying that land managers' acceptance of environmental change declines gradually due to lack of historical knowledge. Some actions to counteract SBS are haunted by methodological problems associated with measuring natural states and ignoring societal effects on ideas of naturalness. To balance methodological discussi

Using Metrics of a Mixture Effect and Nutrition from an Observational Study for Consideration towards Causal Inference

Environmental exposures to a myriad of chemicals are associated with adverse health effects in humans, while good nutrition is associated with improved health. Single chemical in vivo and in vitro studies demonstrate causal links between the chemicals and outcomes, but such studies do not represent human exposure to environmental mixtures. One way of summarizing the effect of the joint action of c

A new case of photoallergic contact dermatitis caused by benzophenones in magazine covers

Background: Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) and photoallergic contact dermatitis (PACD) to benzophenone present in printing ink have been reported. However, precise chemical analyses and extended photo-patch tests have not been performed in these cases. Objectives: To determine which components present in a magazine cover are responsible for a patient's skin reaction, to determine the primary se

Stadsluftens hälsobelastning på barn

Resultaten från denna studie tyder på påtagliga skillnader för de barn som växer upp i större städer jämfört med barn som växer upp ruralt eller i medelstora/mindre orter när det kommer till exponering för luftföroreningar samt den faktiska inandade dosen av dessa. Barn vid förskolor i Malmö exponeras för nästan dubbelt så höga nivåer partikulära luftföroreningar (PM2,5) jämfört med barn vid försk

Critical Practices of Law

The judicial field has emerged as an arena on which political and social contestations over racism and structural inequalities increasingly are taking place in Sweden. This article is part of a larger project which aims to understand what kind of space the law provides for protection from, and debate about racism, and how anti-racist and migrants’ rights activism relate to this space. Based on par
