Background: Population-based prevalence studies suggest that psychosis is a continuum distributed in the general population. Aim: To assess the prevalence of delusional ideation in young healthy individuals in a low-income country setting (Uganda) and to investigate possible relevant background factors. Method: Interviews were conducted in a district capital and in three rural villages, using the
Patients often worry considerably about biomedically mild and self-limiting conditions. A previous study on non-selected primary care patients showed that this could be partly explained by frequent associations with cases of serious illness in their family histories. This study further investigated these phenomena in middle aged men with a recent diagnosis of hypercholesterolaemia. Sixty-three out
Background. Nurse managers act under constant pressure to develop strategies in response to professional challenges within a changing and restructured health care system. When such environmental stress is present, they need access to sufficient psychosocial recourses. Aim. The study aimed to investigate whether nurse managers' professional networks, psychosocial work conditions, job support, soci
We investigated how the legacy of warming and summer-drought affected microbial communities in five different replicated long-term (>10 years) field-experiments across Europe (EU-FP7 INCREASE infrastructure). To focus explicitly on legacy effects (i.e. indirect rather than direct effects of the environmental factors), we measured microbial variables under the same moisture and temperature in a bri

Background: Previous studies on domestic violence in Indonesia have focused primarily on women's experiences and little research has been undertaken to understand men's views on domestic violence or their involvement in the prevention of domestic violence. This study aimed to explore men's views on masculinity and the use of violence within marriage, in order to gain knowledge on how to involve me
Purpose: The aim of this study is to provide evidence on the costs and health effects of two alternative hearing aid delivery models, a community-based and a centre-based approach. The study is set in Bangladesh and the study population is children between 12 and 18 years old. Methods: Data on resource use by participants and their caregivers were collected by a household survey. Follow-up data we
BACKGROUND: Previous research suggests that Tanzanian MSM might prefer consulting pharmacies and drugstores, rather than public healthcare services, when in need of STI medicines and treatment. Yet, few studies have explored the experiences of providing services to MSM clients among those working at pharmacies and drugstores and examined what challenges they encounter in providing these services.
Ice core studies have proved thed18O in Greenland precipitation to be correlated to thephase of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). This subject has also been investigated inmodeling studies. However, these studies have either had severe biases in thed18O levels,or have not been designed to be compared directly with observations. In this study wenudge a meso‐scale climate model fitted with stabl
Background: The response to the COVID-19 pandemic involved various lockdown measures, including school closures, which significantly impacted young populations, particularly in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs). Given the well-known protective effect of regular school attendance on sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), reports of disrupted education, compromised SRHR, and an incr
While the need for a transformation to tackle climate change is no longer contested, competing visions about the future have taken the front seat in political debates. Previous research on stakeholders in the European Parliament and the GermanBundestag identified opposing views relating to green growth, degrowth and post growth. In relation to trade unions, these have recently been discussed conce
Debate over the future of international science takes place in light of two trends that are frequently interpreted as standing in tension with each other. The longer-term pattern shows that science is increasingly an international endeavour, as collaboration across borders has grown. A more recent apparent re-nationalisation of science, however, raises questions over the march of international sci
INTRODUCTION: An increasing number of sub-Saharan African countries are implementing national health insurance schemes (NHISs) to support the aspiration of universal health coverage (UHC). A growing body of literature recognises the private sector role in improving NHIS equity in service access, public provider complementarity and overall member satisfaction. Zambia has implemented the NHIS since
The objective of this paper is to briefly examine and contrast the two audiovisual productions of Swedish author Stieg Larsson’s first novel The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo from the perspective that the two films were prepared, shot and finalized within vastly dissimilar production economies. The rationale behind the examination is that it seemingly reveals certain paradoxes that appear to challen
In a context where scientific communication is caught be-tween the for-profit motives of large publishers and the need for democratized knowledge, the journal Ecosistemas reaffirms its commitment to a publication model that is, above all, by the scientific community and for the scientific community. We are not only consolidating our vision, but also taking firm steps toward a new stage of mod

This paper re-focuses the Silk Road discussions from the position of contemporary art in Central Asian region. Since the late 1980s contemporary art in Central Asia boomed and it eventually became an alternative public space for the discussion of cultural transformations, social and global processes and problems that local societies faced. Initially the questions raised by many artists concerned i
