The study provides preliminary results from a case comparison of road safety management in three African countries (Tanzania, Ghana, Zambia) with three EU countries, all with a great track record of excellence in traffic safety and practicing Safe Systems principles (Norway and Netherlands & Sweden), based on document analysis and qualitative interviews. Norway, Sweden, and The Netherlands are
The field of management research on applied artificial intelligence (AI) is growing rapidly as the technology is maturing in industrial applications. Due to the nascent state of the scientific discourse, it is hard to discern thematic focal points or how well managerial and technical topics are integrated. Based on 10,036 publications over 25 years, we map the topic landscape of AI-related managem
This paper describes an application of instant messaging to support extended online participatory workshops. We describe the development and application of Participatory Instant Messaging (PIM) within the context of two projects in Sweden, which both aimed to integrate migrant experiences into policy dialogues and societal awareness. The projects brought together artistic practice, research tradit
We investigated integrative physiological responses to eupnoeic exercise (EX), rebreathing exercise (RB), dynamic apnoea (DA) and dynamic apnoea with cold-water face immersion (DAFI) in 20 healthy participants. Trials involved non-steady-state cycle exercise at 60 W for an average duration of 66 s. With increases in heart rate and stroke volume, EX and RB increased cardiac output compared with bas
Regogörelse för när Lunds universitet 1844 erbjöds egendomen Häckeberga som donation, men på villkor som gjorde att regeringen beslöt att avböja gåvan.
In 2016, the average tax revenue as a percentage of gross domestic product (GDP) was 26.15 percent for OECD countries, but only 15.47 percent for Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Some scholars attribute SSA countries’ weak tax capacity to administrative and technical challenges, their large informal sector, and colonial legacies (Burgess & Stern, 1993; Mkandawire, 2010). Others acknowledge that polit
This paper explores the challenges and barriers of forced migrants at the nexus of housing and social integration, presenting the outcomes of an international and interdisciplinary collaboration funded by the JPI Urban Europe programme. Research includes the case study cities Leipzig, Lund, Riga, and Vienna, utilizing primary and secondary data in a transdisciplinary process involving theoretical
BACKGROUND: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has many known dysregulated inflammatory proteins. A disintegrin and metalloproteinase 17 (ADAM17) is a protease that sheds several proteins involved in COPD pathogenesis. The aim was to investigate ADAM17, its phosphorylated form (pADAM17) and its substrates in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and blood from COPD and control subjects. METHODS:
I en tid när bilder och videor dominerar sociala medieflöden har visuellt material blivit ett av de mest kraftfulla verktygen för att sprida desinformation. Rapporten Bildkunnighet och beredskap visar hur detta skifte förändrar både informationsmiljön och demokratiska förutsättningar. Med generativ AI blir det allt enklare att skapa verklighetstrogna, men helt fabricerade, bilder och filmer vilket
En diskussion om studenters möte med rollen som VFU-studenter, och betydelsen av social lyhördhet och kompetens.
I kapitlet diskuteras VFU-studenters komplexa situation i spänningsfältet mellan två professionella ordningar: en traditionell ordning (logik) respektive en politisk-rationalistisk dito.
BACKGROUND: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is characterized by chronic inflammation driven by central nervous system (CNS)-resident immune cells such as microglia, especially during the progressive phase of the disease. The P2X7 receptor (P2X7R), a risk protein for MS, is ubiquitously expressed on immune cells. AFC-5128, a CNS-penetrating small molecule inhibitor of P2X7R, is a promising agent for the tr
En los últimos años, los estados receptores de grandes poblaciones de refugiados han adoptado políticas estratégicas, entendidas como comportamientos de "búsqueda de incentivos sobre la población refugiada" (refugee rent-seeking behaviours) para aprovechar su posición y obtener concesiones financieras y políticas de la comunidad internacional (Tsourapas 2019). En concreto, Jordania y Líbano son d

Bokens kapitel rör frågor om barns rättigheter inom ämnena familjerätt, socialrätt, utbildningsrätt, migrationsrätt, straffrätt, utsökningsrätt och hyresrätt. Sätten som barns rättigheter fått uttryck inom de olika rättsområdena skiljer sig åt.
The revitalization of existing neighborhoods has been a frequent topic of public and academic debate in post–industrial times. Yet, little is known about the potential of individual, commercial real estate development projects to revitalize neighborhoods. Adaptive reuse of existing buildings, especially when combined with collaborative spaces, have been linked to positive social impacts beyond cul
