From the introduction: "If you are a teacher in higher education, you are probably focused on student learning and committed to improving your teaching. Here, we introduce you to the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL), the 'inquiry into teaching and learning for the purposes of improving [it] in context and contributing to what we know about [it], in support of the broader aims of higher
Erik Olin Wright (1947–2019) var en amerikansk samhällsforskare, disputerad i sociologi och engagerad i marxistiska frågor om ojämlikhet, förtryck och möjligheterna till frigörelse genom samhällsomvandling. Hans svar var långt ifrån alltid renläriga, och att Wright inte såg något egenvärde i att noga hålla sig inom en viss tanketradition är kännetecknande för hans akademiska arbete. Själv beskrev
BackgroundPatients with advanced ovarian cancer (AOC) who undergo primary and interval debulking surgery are often anemic at diagnosis, with iron deficiency being the most common cause. The aim was to investigate whether preoperative anemia and iron deficiency impact short-term recovery.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study included 262 patients with AOC who underwent surgery at Skane University
Introduction: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is overrepresented among children and adults with obesity, but knowledge about how ADHD may affect outcomes following metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is limited. The aim of this study was to examine mental health and weight outcomes after undergoing MBS during adolescence in individuals with and without ADHD. Methods: In a multice
This review focuses on the findings of the JSH-MPN-R18 study, a retrospective analysis of 596 patients with polycythemia vera (PV) and 1,152 patients with of essential thrombocythemia (ET). Among the four sub-analyses conducted, one focused on adolescents and young adults (AYA population) with PV and ET, demonstrating that the characteristics of thrombotic events in young Japanese patients differ
China's rapid growth in electricity demand intensifies the twin challenges of water conservation and carbon reduction in a system where production and consumption are spatially mismatched. We develop a novel evaluation framework to quantify how electricity generation and interprovincial transmission redistribute “virtual” water and carbon. The method integrates national water/carbon footprints by
Radio frequency (RF) signal-based localization using modern cellular networks has emerged as a promising solution to accurately locate objects in challenging environments. One of the most promising solutions for situations involving obstructed-line-of-sight (OLoS) and multipath propagation is multipathbased simultaneous localization and mapping (MP-SLAM) that employs map features (MFs), such as vi
Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic severely disrupted maternal, neonatal, and child health (MNCH) services in Uganda. In response, digital health tools were rapidly adopted as one of the strategies to restore service delivery. However, the experiences of MNCH professionals implementing these adaptations remain underexplored. This study aimed to explore how MNCH professionals in Uganda experienced
Localizing users and mapping the environment using radio signals is a key task in emerging applications such as reliable communications, location-aware security, and safety critical navigation. Recently introduced multipath-based simultaneous localization and mapping (MP-SLAM) can jointly localize a mobile agent and the reflective surfaces in radio frequency (RF) environments. Most existing MP-SLA
INTRODUCTION: Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a complex disorder with challenging diagnosis and management.METHODS: This cross-sectional, multi-national, web-based physician chart audit described clinical features and management of POTS, offering insights into disease burden and outcomes before and after the COVID-19 pandemic.RESULTS: Physicians (n = 153), primarily cardiologis
This article examines how lying by state agents can violate various human rights, including freedoms of opinion and expression, the right to health, and the right to participate in public affairs. The article argues that human rights law will apply regardless of whether states lie to their own people or to peoples of other states. The article also argues that lying by state agents can be justified
Distributed MIMO and integrated sensing and communication are expected to be key technologies in future wireless systems, enabling reliable, low-latency communication and accurate localization. Dedicated localization solutions must support distributed architecture, provide scalability across different system configurations and meet strict latency requirements. We present a scalable message-passing
The Swedish Constitution consists of four constitutional acts, and one of them is the Instrument of Government (Regeringsformen). It was enacted in 1974 and entered into force 1st January 1975. This year, it has functioned as the most important constitutional act in Sweden for 50 years. Its name, the Instrument of Government, was used for the first time in 1634, when a constitutional act was issue
