Bakgrund: Inom fysioterapi sker en ständig metodutveckling, där gamla metoder fasas ut och nya tillkommer. En ny behandlingsmetod är MediYoga. Yoga har idag blivit en allt mer välkänd träningsform. MediYoga är en yogaform som är framtagen för att användas i hälso- och sjukvården och kan ge goda effekter mot stress och ångest. Swedish Institute Medical Yoga (SIMY) har tagit fram ett nytt ramverk, M
Bakgrund: Främre korsbandsrupturer (ACL-rupturer) är vanliga inom många idrotter. Trots rehabilitering kvarstår ofta förändrade rörelsemönster och en betydande andel av idrottare drabbas av återfallsskador efter återgång till idrott. Beslut om återgång baseras ofta på symmetri mellan benen i exempelvis styrka och hoppfunktion. Samtidigt saknas riktlinjer för konditionsutvärdering, trots att kondit
Bakgrund Fotledsstukningar är den vanligaste skadan inom basket och kan leda till bestående funktionsnedsättningar samt rädsla för återkommande skada. Syfte Syftet med studien var att undersöka funktionella skillnader mellan den skadade och den oskadade foten. Studien syftade även till att utvärdera självrapporterad funktion och rädsla för återgång till aktivitet bland basketspelare som drabbats a
Background: Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) immunocytochemical (ICC) analysis of cell blocks (CBs) has recently emerged in clinical practice. Unlike standardized immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues, cytology involves various preparation methods and fixatives. This study investigated how various fixatives influence PD-L1 immunoreactivity in CBs from malignant pleural
We study the effect of childbirth on local and non-local employment dynamics for both men and women using Belgian social security and geo-location data. Applying an event-study design that accounts for treatment effect heterogeneity, we show that 75 percent of the effect of the birth of a first child on the overall gender gap in employment is accounted for by gender disparities in non-local employ
INTRODUCTION: Cytotechnologists have long been central to cervical cancer screening, although their education and job responsibilities differ markedly across countries. The adoption of primary HPV testing has substantially reshaped cytotechnology workforce needs and professional roles. In Sweden, however, no comprehensive overview of these changes exists. This study therefore examined cytotechnolo
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: MicroRNAs are potential predictors and mediators of metabolic disease. Cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD) is the most common comorbidity in cystic fibrosis (CF). Here we aimed to investigate serum microRNAs in individuals with CF and differing glucose tolerance status. Specifically, we hypothesised that the circulating microRNA profile varies depending on glucose tolerance st
Importance: Multiple sclerosis is a chronic neurological progressive disease that can lead to different impairments. It may also impact individuals' quality of life and daily living, including occupational performance and occupational balance. However, occupational balance has not been thoroughly described in this population. Objective: This study aimed to assess occupational balance in a sample o
Background: Late effects of polio (LEoP) are defined as new symptoms, for example, muscle weakness, fatigue, and pain, occurring many years after an acute polio infection. These impairments can lead to difficulties performing everyday activities (ie, activity limitations) that can reduce a person's ability to take part in society (ie, perceived participation restrictions). Yet, no study has explor
Successful outcomes of cell-based therapeutic is highly-dependent on quality and quantity of the cells. Epigenetic modifiers are known to modulate cell fates via reprogramming, hence it is plausible to use them in enhancing the plasticity of mesenchymal stem cells. In this study, we aimed to study the effects of 5-Azacytidine (5-AzaCR), an epigenetic modifier, pretreatment on mesenchymal stem cell
This paper studies the time-dependent first-in-first-out (FIFO) queuing model with a single intermittently available server and variable-sized bulk arrivals and bulk departures. The time between arrivals, servicing time, and server availability time follows an exponential distribution. The difference-differential equations are used for developing system equations, and the Laplace transforms (L.T.)
This article examines the subversive mobilities and vernacular legal navigation of Uzbek migrants in Finland and Sweden, highlighting their tactical responses to restrictive Nordic migration regimes. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork (2022–2025), including interviews, focus groups and digital ethnography, we explore how migrants with precarious statuses navigate legal ambiguity, administrative opa
PURPOSE: To estimate the effect of dexamethasone eye drops on the risk of progression from type 2 retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) to ROP requiring traditional treatments.DESIGN: Register-based cohort study.PARTICIPANTS: Preterm infants born before 30 weeks' gestation from 2015-2018 (control years) and from 2020-2021 (intervention years) registered in the Swedish Quality Register for ROP at 4 Swed
People often draw inferences from sequences of past performance, sometimes perceiving patterns even in random outcomes. This has fueled debates regarding phenomena such as the hot hand and gambler’s fallacies. With the growing use of artificial intelligence (AI) systems for forecasting and decision support, it becomes important to understand how people form beliefs from sequences of outcomes attri
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Podarcis liolepis (Catalonian Wall Lizard; Chordata; Lepidosauria; Squamata; Lacertidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 1 574.00 megabases and 1 478.08 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (97.05%) is scaffolded into 20 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaff
The chemical industry, essential to economic growth and innovation, faces critical environmental sustainability challenges, notably pollution, emissions, and intensive resource use. Motivated by the need for practical tools to address these issues, this research develops a structured, comprehensive framework to assess and enhance environmental sustainability within the chemical sector. The framewo
Direct, time-resolved measurements of the amino radical (NH2) are critical for understanding plasma-assisted ammonia (NH3) combustion, in terms of both plasma-accelerated NH3 decomposition and reduced NOx emission, yet such data remain scarce. The current study focuses on the spatiotemporal characteristics of NH2 using laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) in a quasi-one-dimensional NH3/air flame subje
With the rapid growth of Internet media, content tagging has become an important topic with many multimedia understanding applications, including efficient organisation and search. Nevertheless, existing visual tagging approaches are susceptible to inherent privacy risks in which private information may be exposed unintentionally. The use of anonymisation and privacy-protection methods is desirabl
This chapter examines the myth of neophilia – the belief that new products are inherently better than repaired ones – and how it has shaped consumer culture, business models and policy. Rooted in postwar consumerism, neophilia has been reinforced by marketing, technological change and growth strategies that promote novelty as progress while casting repair as outdated or uneconomical. The emphasis
