Zukunftsbewältigung : (Overcoming the Future)

Three channel video and sound installation, 7 min. In her work Overcoming the Future Yael Bartana continues her longstanding inquiry into the human capacity for hope –a prophetic emotion based on past experiences and a prime motor of the political imagination. It is based on Bartana’s interest in the 1920s as a time of intense political, ideological, and social upheavals alive with utopian vision

Mir Zaynen Do!

One channel video and sound installation, 11.35 min.In communities of the diaspora, music can be a powerful tool for collectively preserving memories. Along with storytelling, traditional languages, and dancing, songs can represent a living home for stateless nations.Commissioned by the Jewish Brazilian art space Casa do Povo, Yael Bartana's new work brings together two groups from two different d

Towards Circular Business Models for Sustainability : Exploring Innovation, Implementation, & Environmental Impact

Businesses play a key role in transforming production and consumption for sustainability,where circular business models (CBMs) offer one solution to reduce waste and rethink resource use.Although CBMs may be able to provide environmental and economic benefits, it is unclear how they canbe implemented effectively and contribute to sustainability goals. To understand how CBMs cancontribute to broade

Oat beta-glucans consumed at breakfast improve glucose tolerance acutely and after a subsequent lunch - a randomized dose-response study in healthy young adults

Oat beta-glucans (OBGs) lower postprandial blood glucose by increasing gastrointestinal viscosity, delaying gastric emptying, and slowing glucose absorption. While the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recommends a minimum intake of 4 g of OBGs per 30 g of available carbohydrates (avCHO) for a significant reduction in glycaemic response, this poses formulation challenges. This study investigat

Production and comprehension of rhetorical questions in the acquisition of Italian as a first language

This paper investigates the acquisition of rhetorical questions (RhQs) inmonolingual children acquiring Italian, comparing the comprehension andproduction of RhQs based on their optional lexical, morphosyntactic, andprosodic cues. We show that 6-to-9-year-old children are in the process ofacquiring the use of optional lexical and morphosyntactic markers in produc-tion (e.g. discourse particles, in

How to age right and care(fully) at home? : A protocol for a multistage comparative study of ageing in place and hospital at home care across three countries

INTRODUCTION: Ageing right care(fully) is a transnational research study which explores and maps an understanding of the care pathways between ageing in place and hospital at home policy and practices for older adults in Israel, the Netherlands and Sweden. The countries are suited to be compared where they have growing, ageing populations, a focus on healthcare reform and several policies to reduc

Temporal Dynamics of Memory Integration Processes

Episodiska minnen kan sträcka sig bortom direkta upplevelser. Till exempel, om du ser en kvinna promenera med en hund och senare observerar en man med samma hund, kan du dra slutsatsen att det finns en koppling mellan dem. Sådana inferenser är centrala för att möjliggöra flexibelt beslutsfattande och generalisering av tidigare kunskap till nya situationer, och anses bero på mekanismer för minnesinEpisodic memories can extend beyond direct experiences. For example, if you see a woman walking a dog and later observe a man walking the same dog, you might infer a connection between them. These inferences, crucial for making novel decisions and extending knowledge to new situations, are thought to rely on memory integration mechanisms.Two main mechanisms have been proposed for memory integratio

Supporting someone after their stroke : family members' views and experiences of self-management

PURPOSE: Self-management has increased in recognition in stroke research and rehabilitation along with growing trends of shorter hospital stays and more patient-centred care. Family members are key persons in the self-management process, but their views and experiences of self-management have not been studied in detail. This study aimed to explore family members' understanding of self-management,

Mobilizing Knowledge : Framing Gender-based Violence and Negotiating Social Protection for Migrant Women with Precarious Legal Status

Idag lever allt fler människor under förhållanden som definieras som prekära. Även i avancerade välfärdssamhällen lyckas inte de traditionella trygghetssystemen erkänna och hantera de nya sociala risker som dessa grupper inom ”prekariatet” ställs inför. Bland dessa grupper finner vi migrantkvinnor med osäker rättslig ställning. Denna forskning undersöker hur aktörer i akademin och i civilsamhälletIn advanced welfare societies, traditional welfare programs are failing to recognize and respond to new social risks faced by groups in precarious life situations, including migrant women. This research explore how actors in academic and civil society settings recognize and frame the struggles of migrant women with precarious legal status, particularly in terms of gender-based violence (GBV) and a

Transnational contestation for local communities within the formation of the European Union’s Critical Raw Materials Act – a critical appraisal

This article presents a critical appraisal of the European Union’s (EU) policy process that delivered the Critical Raw Materials Act, 2023–⁠2024. We combine Marxist-Gramscian perspectives on regional blocs and social movement theory on transnational contestation to study a framing contest at two points in the policy process. First, we examined environmental justice frames in technical campaigns to

Adolescent Psychedelic Use and Mental Health Is Associated with User Personality: A Representative National Study on Drug Use

It is still unknown how current trends in psychedelic use among adolescents are related to mental health. This study reports on the prevalence of psychedelic use in a Swedish representative nationwide drug survey and its association with mental health outcomes and user personality. A cross-sectional study using data from the latest 2024 Swedish Council for Information on Alcohol and Other Drugs (C

Being Breastfed in Infancy and Risk of Colorectal Cancer and Precursor Lesions

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Emerging evidence implicates the importance of perinatal and early-life exposures in colorectal cancer (CRC) development. However, it remains unclear whether being breastfed in infancy is associated with CRC risk in adult life, particularly early adulthood.METHODS: We prospectively investigated the association between history of being breastfed and risk of CRC and its precur

Gastrointestinal cancer precursor risk and mortality in pancreatic intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms : a nationwide cohort study

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) of the pancreas is a precursor of pancreatic cancer. While earlier research has shown a high prevalence of synchronous/metachronous extrapancreatic tumors in IPMN patients, these studies have often been small with retrospective data collection. The aim of the study was to examine absolute and relative risks of non-pancreatic gastr

Neurosurgical approaches to spinal infections

Spinal infection is rare. Clinical suspicion is important in patients with nonmechanical neck and/or back pain to make the proper diagnosis in early disease. Before planning surgery, a thorough evaluation of the spinal stability, alignment, and deformity is necessary. Timing of surgery, side of approach, appropriate surgical technique, and spinal instruments used are crucial. Biomechanical preserv

TPP1 is associated with risk of advanced precursors and cervical cancer survival

It is unclear how telomere-binding protein TPP1 interacts with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) and influences cervical cancer development and progression. This study included all eligible 156 cervical cancers diagnosed during 2003-2008 and followed up through 2014, 102 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) patients, and 16 participants with normal cervix identified at the same pe
