Enacting biochar as a climate solution in Denmark

Following the Paris Agreement's climate targets and the modelling community's scenarios of how to reach them, carbon dioxide removal is gaining increasing importance in national climate policies. This is also the case in Denmark – considered by itself and others a climate frontrunner – where biochar is envisioned to cover 10% of the 2030 reduction goal. However, apart from research experiments and

Barriers to and facilitators of screening for cervical and breast cancer : Experiences of non-adherent women with current or previous drug use

Objective: Women with current or previous drug use (WCPDU) have an increased risk of poor cervical and breast cancer outcomes, and low participation in screening for these cancer forms. The aim of this study was to assess self-reported barriers to and facilitators of cervical and breast cancer screening, among WCPDU. Methods: A survey based on results from a previous qualitative study about WCPDUs

Minimizing blood sampling in preterm infants

Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To assess the benefits and harms of different strategies to minimize blood sampling in preterm infants.

Effects of Steady Glucose Concentration Peritoneal Dialysis on Ultrafiltration Volume and Sodium Removal : A Pilot Crossover Trial

Background: Volume overload is common in patients treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD) and is associated with poor clinical outcome. Steady concentration PD is where a continuous glucose infusion maintains the intraperitoneal glucose concentration and as a result provides continuous ultrafiltration throughout the dwell. The primary objective of this study was to investigate the ultrafiltration ra

Effects of iodine contrast media on thyroid function – a prospective study

Objectives: When exposed to iodine contrast medium (ICM), thyroid dysfunction may develop, due to excess amounts of iodide. The incidence of contrast-induced thyroid dysfunction has been difficult to interpret, because of the observational and retrospective designs of most previous studies. With the Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS), where randomly selected individuals aged 50–65 yea

A structural investigation on the interactions of cotton fabric cellulose with olive oil and water

The cotton fabric consists of cellulose arranged in a complex structure with multiple levels of organization at different length scales. Understanding this structure and its interactions with water and oil is essential for developing efficient and environmentally friendly methods of cotton washing. In this study, the structure of raw cotton fabric cellulose and the effects of water and oil were ex

Improvement of persistent impairments in executive functions and attention following electroconvulsive therapy in a case control longitudinal follow up study

Background: How cognition is influenced by electroconvulsive treatment (ECT) and major depressive disorder (MDD) is still debated. The development and etiology of neurocognitive impairment in MDD were examined by investigating the cognitive profile following ECT related to the state, scar, and trait perspectives, with the former predicting improvements parallel with depressive symptoms, while the

Delade åsikter om dödshjälp bland palliativ vårdpersonal

Läkartidningen 5-6/2025. Egenreferat. Dödshjälp, det vill säga eutanasi och läkarassisterat självmord, är olaglig i Sverige, men debatten om legalisering är fortsatt aktuell.Läkarförbundet genomförde 2021 en enkätundersökning om läkarkårens inställning till dödshjälp. 41 procent av de svarande ansåg att dödshjälp bör tillåtas enligt svensk lag (medan 34 procent motsatte sig detta), men endast 29 p

From 2D to 3D : Computational Methods for Analyzing Porous Electrode Structures in Fuel Cells

A fuel cell is an electrochemical device that transforms chemical energy into electrical energy and heat. It occurs through a controlled chemical reaction. Among its essential components are the porous electrodes, which play a pivotal role in the operation of the fuel cells. These electrodes are crucial because they facilitate the efficient flow of reactants to the reaction sites, thereby driving

Skuldtyngd – Unga vuxna och skuldens dimensioner : Policy Brief #4, jan 2025. Tema: Överskuldsättning som socialt problem

Skuldtyngd är ett forskningsprojekt som startade 2021 och pågår till och med 2025, i samarbete mellan Lunds universitet och Göteborgs universitet. Projektet är finansierat av Forte och studerar skuldsättningsproblem bland unga vuxna i åldern 18 till 25 år. Centralt för projektet är att förstå skuldsättningen ur unga vuxnas eget perspektiv, liksom att studera skuldsättning som ett socialt och relat

Immigrant Background and Rape Conviction : A 21-Year Follow-Up Study in Sweden

While extensive research exists on the severe consequences among rape victims, little is known about specific predictors in relation to rape convictions among immigrants to Europe. This study from Sweden (having one of Europe's highest per capita rates of rape) investigates individuals convicted of rape, aggravated rape, attempted rape, or attempted aggravated rape, collectively termed as rape+, a

Theoretical rigor of customer experience scales : a systematic review and a roadmap for researchers

Purpose: Prior research has proposed a number of scales measuring the customer experience (CX), which tend to conceptualize and operationalize CX differently, raising potential confusion among researchers (e.g. regarding which scale to use). Addressing this issue, this article conducts a systematic review to inventorize key CX scales and assess their theoretical rigor, with a focus on the identifi

An ultra-short-period super-Earth with an extremely high density and an outer companion

We present the discovery and characterization of a new multi-planetary system around the Sun-like star K2-360 (EPIC 201595106). K2-360 was first identified in K2 photometry as the host of an ultra-short-period (USP) planet candidate with a period of 0.88 d. We obtained follow-up transit photometry, confirming the star as the host of the signal. High precision radial velocity measurements from HARP
