Background: The major genetic high-risk of developing autoimmune diabetes are HLA-DR3DQ2 and HLA-DR4DQ8 haplotypes. Their importance in Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA) has only been partly elucidated. Here we aimed to dissect their impact on autoimmunity, diabetic phenotype, and comorbidity. Methods: Data from individuals with LADA were collected from two all-population based surveys,
Background: Machine learning (ML)-based cluster analysis is a common method for subtyping medical conditions and presentations of disease states. Recent advancements in algorithms and increasing access to vast healthcare data have further increased the use of such ML models. However, practical implementation is lacking, largely due to methodological limitations and insufficient reporting and clini
Industry accounts for 26.3 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions and 34 percent if we include the indirect emissions from purchased electricity and heat. Reaching net-zero emissions in a few decades means that industry must also take unprecedent mitigation actions. Given the 15–25-year lifespan of major process equipment, all new industrial investments will need to be near net-zero emissions
Cuffless blood pressure (BP) monitoring devices represent a promising innovation in hypertension management. This scientific statement provides a comprehensive update on these emerging technologies, their specific validation requirements, their potential clinical applications, and their present and future challenges. These devices generate considerable interest by enabling non-invasive BP measurem
Mat för ett inkluderande samhälle är ett samverkansprojekt med finansiering från Sustain-Gov. Det leds av Region Stockholm i samverkan med Livsmedelsakademin, Dietisternas Riksförbund, Frisk Mat (PUSH) och Matmissionen.
Huvudtemat i detta nummer av Socialmedicinsk tidskrift är fattigdom i välfärdsstaten. Fattigdomen börjar återigen beskrivas som ett individ betingatproblem i Sverige, vilket har lett till nya politiska strider om hur vi kan förstå problemet och hur det ska lösas. Forskningens roll i detta sammanhang är att undersöka utvecklingen över tid, analysera bakomliggande orsaker till att utsattheten ökar o
Aim: To describe critical care nurses' perceptions and experiences of the organ donation process. Design and Methods: A systematic review with a literature search in CINAHL, PubMed, and PsycINFO was conducted between 2009–2024 and reported by the PRISMA guidelines. 14 qualitative studies were assessed for relevance and methodological quality. Data were extracted by two of the researchers. A qualit
Which biological and molecular processes contribute to the pathophysiology of orthostatic hypotension? Orthostatic hypotension is associated with alterations in coagulation, complement, and extracellular matrix pathways, pointing to molecular effects beyond blood pressure regulation and broader vascular and inflammatory phenotypes.
Reclaimed bricks are increasingly considered in circular construction; however, their substantial variability highlights the need for improved characterization and grading to enable reliable reuse. This study investigates the relationships among net density, 24h water absorption, initial rate of absorption (IRA), the water absorption coefficient (Aw), and compressive strength (fb) in reclaimed bri
This article deals with the embodied and sensory experiences of individuals in Iceland who have become vegan in recent years. Grounded in ethnology and theoretically informed by embodied and relational approaches to eating, the study employs the concept of attunement to analyze empirical material from in-depth interviews with eighteen vegans aged 21–63 years old, as well as thirty-five written resThis article deals with the embodied and sensory experiences of individuals in Iceland who have become vegan in recent years.

Sustainability in agriculture is as much a policy goal as a cultural and political project: privileging scientific expertise, innovation, and entrepreneurship, it defines what counts as competent farming, sidelining the everyday, hands-on skills that actually sustain it. This paper examines how skills shape sustainability in Southeastern European agriculture, focusing on North Macedonia and Greece
