Although the associations between climate, food conditions and reproduction in the wild has been the focus of numerous studies in recent years, we still know little about population level responses to climate and fluctuating food conditions in long-lived species and during longer periods of time. Here, we assessed the relative importance of the abundance of the main prey in winter (small mammals),

A site specific and participatory performance about what it means to belong. Performed in Hrísey, an island off the north coast of Iceland, with the participation of the islanders.Eyja is a participatory piece about what it means to belong. The work is located in Hrísey, a fragile settlement where life and living conditions are fragile. Life on the island reflects the global projects facing the world in 2020. Visitors are invited to the island to examine their own ideas about self and society and about time and place.We sail from Árskógssandi and the work begins when you ge

This research explores how blue-green solutions (BGS) take part in various everyday situations in the Augustenborg neighborhood of Malmö, Sweden, where BGS were introduced over twenty years ago to control urban flooding. The research applies a relational perspective, looking at everyday life as something that is contextually formed and given meaning in relation to the socio-materiality of the envi

CD169+ resident macrophages in lymph nodes of breast cancer patients are for unknown reasons associated with a beneficial prognosis. This contrasts CD169+ macrophages present in primary breast tumors (CD169+ TAMs), that correlate with a worse prognosis. We recently showed that these CD169+ TAMs were associated with tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) and Tregs in breast cancer. Here, we show that

Introduction: Independent mobility is every child's right and has implications for their health, wellbeing, and development. This scoping review addresses children's needs and experiences of light conditions in their everyday outdoor life. The review examines peer-reviewed scientific literature that analyses associations between different light conditions and children's independent mobility (CIM)

A performative encounter with the more-than-human. A work in progress presentaion.The piece is the fourth and the concluding part of an artistic research project “How Little is Enough?” conducted by Steinunn Knúts Önnudóttir at Malmö Theatre Academy, Lund University. The project aims to develop sustainable performance methods through transformative encounters in relation-specific performances, with a particular focus on how minimal and sustainable the framework can be. In this

Strings is a participative performance that explores the driving forces of change and what personal motivations humans have for pursuing their vision. The site of the performance is the University of Lund with its atmospheric environment, history and diverse hubs of knowledgemaking in Lund and Malmö. The hosts are an international group of researchers from all faculties of Lund University covering

Approximately one-fifth of new parents struggle with unwanted intrusive thoughts (UITs) about intentionally harming their child. This study evaluated the initial efficacy, feasibility and acceptability of a novel online self-guided cognitive intervention for new parents with distressing UITs. Self-recruited parents (N = 43, 93% female, age 23–43 years) of children 0–3 years reporting daily distres

Background: Smartwatches are commonly capable to record a lead-I-like electrocardiogram (ECG) and perform a photoplethysmography (PPG)-based atrial fibrillation (AF) detection. Wearable technologies repeatedly face the challenge of frequent premature beats, particularly in target populations for screening of AF. Objective: To investigate the potential diagnostic benefit of six-lead ECG compared to

Background: After a series of standardized reporting systems in cytopathology, the Sydney system was recently introduced to address the need for reproducibility and standardization in lymph node cytopathology. Since then, the risk of malignancy for the categories of the Sydney system has been explored by several studies, but no studies have yet examined the interobserver reproducibility of the Syd

Tilt table testing (TTT) has been used for decades to study short-term blood pressure (BP) and heart rate regulation during orthostatic challenges. TTT provokes vasovagal reflex in many syncope patients as a background of widespread use. Despite the availability of evidence-based practice syncope guidelines, proper application and interpretation of TTT in the day-to-day care of syncope patients re

Recent research has revealed that low-energy offset polymer solar cells (PSCs) are capable of a power conversion efficiency of over 19%. However, it is unclear how energy offsets and the charge photogeneration process are correlated. Herein, the effect of energy offsets on charge photogeneration dynamics for Y-series molecules (Y5, Y6, Y10, and BTP-4F-12)-based PSCs with the variations of the lowe

Objective: The episode patterns of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) may carry important information on disease progression and complication risk. However, existing studies offer very little insight into to what extent a quantitative characterization of AF patterns can be trusted given the errors in AF detection and various types of shutdown, i.e., poor signal quality and non-we

Objective To assess the contemporary prevalence of, and factors associated with angina pectoris symptoms, and to examine the relationship to coronary atherosclerosis in a middle-aged, general population. Methods Data were based on the Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS), in which 30 154 individuals were randomly recruited from the general population between 2013 and 2018. Participants

ISLAND, A SITE SPECIFIC AND HUMAN SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE ABOUT WHAT IT MEANS TO BELONG (VIDEO ESSAY: 22 MINUTES)ABSTRACTThe video essay disseminates the work Eyja (island), a site specific, participatory performance from autumn 2020 performed in Hrísey an Island off the north coast of Iceland. Island is a part of an artistic research project: How little is Enough? Sustainable Methods of Performance

Objectives: We examined the temporal changes of the CSF proteome in patients with herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) during the course of the disease, in relation to anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) serostatus, corticosteroid treatment, brain MRI and neurocognitive performance. Methods: Patients were retrospectively included from a previous prospective trial with a pre-specified CSF sampl

We complete the model-independent analysis of the scaling properties of the differential cross section of elastic proton-proton cross sections, including new TOTEM data published in 2022 at √s = 8 TeV. We separate the signal and background regions with a new gating method. In the signal region, we find that the statistical significance of the Odderon exchange from the combined 7.0 and 8.0 TeV pp d

Objective: To explore associations between perinatal activity and survival in infants born at 22 and 23 weeks of gestation in Sweden. Design/Setting: Data on all births at 22 and 23 weeks' gestational age (GA) were prospectively collected in 2004-2007 (T1) or obtained from national registers in 2014-2016 (T2) and 2017-2019 (T3). Infants were assigned perinatal activity scores based on 3 key obstet
