Syftet med den aktuella studien var att undersöka behandlares erfarenheter av att leda compassionfokuserad terapi (CFT) i gruppformat i svensk kontext. Studien syftade till att belysa vilka möjligheter och utmaningar behandlarna upplevde i arbetet och hur de beskrev sin roll som gruppledare. Sex terapeuter som har genomfört minst en 12-veckors behandling i CFT intervjuades. Datainsamlingen skedde The aim of this study was to explore therapists’ experiences on facilitating compassion-focused therapy (CFT) in a group format within a Swedish context. The present study sought to examine the opportunities and challenges the therapists experienced in their work, as well as how they described their role as group leaders. Six therapists who had conducted at least one 12-week CFT group treatment we

This study investigates isoprene emissions in a high-latitude Alpine tundra ecosystem, focusing on using near-field remote sensing of surface temperatures, the photochemical reflectance index (PRI) and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), and meteorological measurements to model these emissions. Isoprene is a key biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emitted by select plants, which c

Purpose: To map and summarise the available knowledge regarding older adults’ experiences of team-based home rehabilitation. Method: The Johanna Briggs Institute (JBI) guidelines for scoping reviews guided the process. Eight databases, eight organisational websites, one registry and Google Scholar were searched. Searches were limited to publications published from 2006 to 2023 in English and Scand

Introduction: Acute lower limb ischemia (ALI) is a life and limb threatening event often affecting patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Little is known about how T2DM affects the risk of adverse events in patients revascularized for ALI. This study aimed to investigate if there were differences in major outcomes between ALI patients with and without T2DM. Methods: Between 2010 and 2014,

Purpose: Consistent, accurate postoperative guidance is crucial for early recovery and patient satisfaction in urology, especially for radical prostatectomy (RP) patients. However, patients often receive inconsistent information, highlighting the need for standardized, evidence-based postoperative care guidelines. Materials and Methods: We conducted a comprehensive review and evaluation of current

Aim: The primary aim was to investigate the incidence, birth characteristics, and timing of diagnosis of cephalhaematoma (CH). The secondary aim was to explore associations between CH and complications during the neonatal period and infancy. Methods: This is a nationwide population-based register study of infants (< 12 months) born in Sweden from 1997 to 2018. Information was retrieved from health

Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) is an additive manufacturing process based on Material Extrusion (MEX) of polymeric filament. This manufacturing technology is commonly used for personalized production applications and prototyping, allowing to obtain customized parts with complex geometries at a low cost. However, this production technique has its limitations regarding dimensional accuracy and sur

Increasing extreme heat events in the tropics are creating dangerous environments in schools. There are limited data, however, on the extent of extreme heat in such classrooms and effective heat-mitigation strategies. This study presents the first long-term analysis of classroom temperatures in Ghanaian schools, measuring conditions in 16 classrooms in Accra over 389 days. It highlights the condit

Quality goals have evolved according to the industrial revolution stages from ‘Small Quality’ to ‘Big Quality’ and now to ‘Open Quality’ in the digital transformation era. This study systematically reviews the chronological development of quality paradigms describing how quality management has evolved from Small to Big to Open Quality. We delineate the concept of Open Quality, emphasizing MTCI-bas

Introduction: A Natural Deep Eutectic Solvent (NaDES) is presumably a green and cost-effective eutectic solvent, capable of extracting many different types of analytes. The analyte, apigenin, is a potential nutraceutical compound with anti-diabetic properties. Background: NaDES compositional variation and unknown properties challenges prediction of their extraction selectivity. Aim(s): Correlate N

We explored various methods for inducing quantum dots (QDs) in pure zinc blende (ZB) InAs nanowires. This material exhibits high conductivity due to the presence of an intrinsic accumulation layer of charge carriers, resulting from surface band bending and donor impurities. To create regions that can be depleted by gate potentials (barriers) in the axial direction of the nanowire, we employed both

Fysik är i huvudsak ett studium av dynamiken i världen runt oss, hur saker rör sig och förändras över tid. Det är elektroners dynamik som står i fokus för det här arbetet. Historiskt har det inte varit möjligt att studera elektroners rörelse i detalj på grund av att rörelserna sker på extremt små tidsskalor. Tänk dig en trafikerad gata som du fotograferar två gånger med tio minuters mellanrum. StiThe availability of light pulses down to the attosecond timescale has led to the development of spectroscopic methods capable of resolving the dynamics of electrons. By studying the interference of electron wave packets (EWP) on their natural timescales, greater understanding of the dynamics can be gained. An attosecond pump-probe technique has been applied previously in Lund to study attosecond

Hardware distortion in large intelligent surfaces (LISs) may limit their performance when scaling up such systems. It is of great importance to model the non-ideal effects in their transceivers to study the hardware distortions that can affect their performance. Therefore, we have focused on modeling and studying the effects of nonlinear RX-chains in LISs. We first derive expressions for SNDR of a

We determined the 2025-2040 impact of climate and land use land cover change on streamflow in the Sironko catchment. LULCC was predicted using Cellular Automata Markov. The climate was statistically downscaled from the 29 GCMs of the IPCC Fifth Coupled Model Intercomparison Project using the delta method of the Agricultural Model Inter-comparison and Improvement Project under five climate regimes

Background and purpose: The Measure of Case-Discussion Complexity (MeDiC) tool was created to gauge case complexity at multidisciplinary team meetings (MDTM) for case selection and prioritization. We aimed to assess applicability and association with MeDiC score and non-compliance with national guide-line-recommendations for MDTM referral in a bladder cancer setting. Material and methods: A modifi

Using the EU as case study, we simulate the impact of border carbon adjustments on agri-food markets. While border carbon adjustments alleviate adverse carbon price impacts on EU agricultural competitiveness and emission leakage, our simulation results also reveal that (i) border carbon adjustments may diminish domestic mitigation efforts, thereby partly offsetting benefits from reduced emission l

We summarize the theory and implementation of an open source solver for rotationally symmetric scatterers. The purpose of the code is to compute reference solutions for electrically large radome problems. The rotational symmetry decouples the azimuthal modes, enabling the three-dimensional problem to be broken down into a sequence of decoupled two-dimensional problems which require much less memor
