The Amsterdam 2022 International Consensus Statement on Concussion in Sport (6th International Conference on Concussion in Sport) was the first Concussion in Sport Group (CISG) consensus to consider the para athlete.1 To date, a lack of research in para sport on most aspects of concussion has prevented the development of evidence-informed consensus on any aspects of concussion care for para athlet
The effectiveness of early warning systems (EWS) is frequently emphasised as being dependent on the integration of vulnerability, yet such considerations are often argued as lacking in practice by international organisations and scientific communities. Although this is acknowledged by global initiatives, less attention has been given to understanding vulnerability integration from the perspectives
Accelerating global demand for critical minerals intensifies pressures on Indigenous territories, exacerbating tensions between extractive imperatives and Indigenous land rights. This thesis critically analyses how state-mediated institutional arrangements in Sweden and Colombia shape Indigenous peoples' participation, authority, and influence in land-use decision-making related to critical mi
This chapter reviews and critically examines the evolution of systemic conceptual perspectives on energy innovation. It argues that energy innovation is by definition a systemic innovation problem, which cannot be adequately depicted with linear or chain-linked innovation models. It rather depends on complex and interrelated changes in technologies, actor networks and institutional arrangements, w
Background: The aim was to explore patients’ reflections related to their choice of participating or not in a multimodal prehabilitation randomised controlled trial (RCT) in relation to minor surgery. Methods: A qualitative study with 22 semi-structured in-depth interviews on patients awaiting ventral hernia repair was conducted between March and May 2024 and reported according to the COREQ guidel
Är det stormaktspolitik, elitintressen, en världsordning i upplösning eller ett planetärt perspektiv som ligger bakom USA:s utspel om Grönland? Statsvetaren Ian Manners analyserar krisen utifrån fyra olika förklaringar.Europeiska länder, och Danmark i synnerhet, kämpar febrilt för att svara på hoten från företrädare för USA om Grönlands framtid.Efter att ha lyckats tillfångata Venezuelas ledare i en räd den 3 januari talar en stärkt amerikansk regering nu om att helt enkelt lägga beslag på Grönland.Flera europeiska ledare har uttryckt sin oro och skickat militär personal till Grönland, men de har inte kunnat ge
The rapid digital transformation of education, driven by the widespread adoption of smart devices and online platforms, has ushered in the era of smart education. While this shift enhances learning experiences, it also introduces significant cybersecurity risks that threaten the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of educational resources, student data, and institutional systems. This sur
Agricultural production necessitates sustainable practices to ensure long-term and sustained food security. Water is a key ingredient for food production. Ensuring sustainable water management in agriculture is thus essential for global wellbeing. But how do we make sure that our practices are sustainable? A large variety of sustainability assessments abound. Their results may even show conflictin
BackgroundAdvanced Trauma Life Support® (ATLS®) is the most widely adopted form of trauma life support training worldwide, but there is no high-quality evidence that it can improve patient outcomes. The aim of this trial is to compare the effects of ATLS® training with standard care on outcomes in adult trauma patients.MethodsADVANCE TRAUMA is a batched stepped-wedge cluster randomised controlled
Here we present the integrated design, high-fidelity simulation, and virtual emissioncertification of a medium-range aero-engine combustor developed within the EU-funded MYTHOS project. The objective is to establish a physics-based framework capable of predicting combustor behavior for both conventional fuels and emerging Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF). Starting from a 0D thermodynamic cycle, a
This study examines the contribution of a structural glass window integrated into a lightweight timber-frame wall diaphragm at the structural level. A full-scale timber mock-up, comprising different bracing elements such as wall diaphragms (with and without a bonded structural window), and a moment-resisting frame, combined with a roof diaphragm, was subjected to multiple serviceability limit stat
Background Physical assistive robots are increasingly promoted in rehabilitation. However, it remains unclear how and for whom, physical assistive robots move from laboratory prototypes into rehabilitation practice, and whether this transition mitigates or reproduces existing inequalities in access to rehabilitation. Objective To examine how moral reasoning and institutional arrangements shape who
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is a central driver of bacterial evolution that utilises mobile genetic elements (MGEs) to enable the rapid acquisition and dissemination of genetic traits across microbial populations. Among these traits, defence systems against bacteriophages play a critical role in shaping host-parasite interactions and microbial community dynamics. Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems, o

Warm, warmer, warmest average temperatures on record. The year of 2023 was the hottest ever recorded on Earth. This heat record breaking development is described as “the new normal”, which means that future buildings must be designed with this new extreme weather normality in mind. The rising heat brings increased demands for space cooling, which must be at least partially met in other ways than t
Lake Victoria, the second-largest freshwater lake globally, holds immense geographical and economic importance in East Africa. Shared by Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda, it influences diverse sectors such as ecology, hydrology, transportation, fisheries, agriculture, tourism, and energy production. Despite its strategic location and economic significance, the riparian states have not fully exploited i
The transition from InterBank Offered Rates (IBORs) to Risk-Free Rates (RFRs) represents one of the most significant shifts in modern financial markets. This transition addresses concerns about the reliability and transparency of IBORs by adopting benchmarks based on actual market transactions. However, this change has far-reaching implications for the valuation of complex financial instruments, s
År 2000 antog FN:s säkerhetsråd resolution 1325 om kvinnor, fred och säkerhet. Som följd har svenska Försvarsmakten publicerat en handbok för integreringen av ett genderperspektiv, både i verksamheten och i internationella operationer. Handboken utgör undersökningens primärmaterial och beskriver att integreringen av ett genderperspektiv både är ett medel och ett mål. Syftet är således att undersökYear 2000 the United Nations Security Council adopted resolution 1325 on women, peace and security. As a result the Swedish Armed Forces published a handbook for integration of a gender perspective, both in the organization and in their international operations. The handbook is the primary material of this thesis and it describes that the gender perspective is not only a goal in itself, but also a
To keep up with the rapidly increasing global population, a significant increase in production of protein foods is required. The environmental impact of the meat industry, in combination with consumer awareness, calls for this food production to become more sustainable. One solution is development of meat analogues, which are meat-like texturized products based on vegetable proteins. In this proj
