Understanding how sympatric species partition resources is critical for biodiversity conservation, particularly in vulnerable ecosystems. As Arctic ecosystems undergo rapid climate change, understanding how animals use space and select habitats becomes essential for effective conservation planning. Advances in technologies can now provide high-resolution data on species movements and habitat use,
Den kriminalpolitiska debatten har under de senaste åren till stor del handlat om de unga lagöverträdarna. Barn under 15 år utnyttjas av den organiserade brottsligheten till att begå grova brott till följd av deras särbehandling inom straffrätten. Dessa barn har ännu inte uppnått straffbarhetsåldern men kan likväl begå brott i juridisk mening enligt svensk rätt. Sedan år 1964 har det funnits en möThe debate on criminal policy has in recent years largely been about young offenders. Children under the age of 15 are exploited by organised crime in order to commit serious crimes as a result of childrens special treatment in criminal law. These children have not yet reached the age of criminal responsibility but can still commit crimes in the legal sense according to Swedish law. Since 1964, th
Current structural fire engineering practice generally assumes that the pre-flashover fire (growth) stage has a negligible influence on structural response and therefore considers only post-flashover conditions. The Eurocode parametric fire, widely used for structural fire design, follows this approach. This thesis investigates the influence of incorporating pre-flashover temperature on the therma
Amid overlapping global crises, many individuals experience psychological distress, anxiety, hopelessness, and a diminished sense of agency. Scholars increasingly argue that this erosion of perceived significance may be as consequential as climate change, biodiversity loss, polarization, and political turmoil, as it stems from a growing disconnection or alienation from self, others, and nature at
Conventional capacity expansion planning (CEP) relies on a perfect-foresight planning horizon and linear investment optimisation, which fail to capture the non-linear dynamics of electricity markets. In the Nordics, hydro-related weather variability plays a critical role in maintaining the robustness of the power system. This paper addresses the intra-year perfect-foresight limitation in current C
Background In patients with stage III cutaneous melanoma, adjuvant treatments with PD-1 and BRAF+MEK inhibitors were approved based on improved recurrence-free survival. However, as the treatments have significant side effects and costs, the effect on overall survival remains a matter of great importance. Methods Clinical and histopathological parameters were obtained from the Swedish Melanoma Reg
Background Completion axillary lymph node dissection (cALND) is often recommended for patients with isolated tumour cells (ITCs) or micrometastases in the sentinel lymph node (SLN) or target lymph node (TLN) to assess the definite nodal tumour burden after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). The aim of this study was to investigate the upgrade of N stage by cALND in patients with low-volume metastase
Background: Policy advocacy (PA) in European healthcare has a strong tradition promoting evidence-based policies. Key organisations, including the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies, the WHO’s Evidence-Informed Policy Network, and the OECD play pivotal roles in integrating research into policymaking. Objectives: To assess the involvement of European Family Medicine (FM) Associatio
Background The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to (i) evaluate effects of exercise on cancer-related lymphedema (CRL) incidence, and (ii) explore whether effect differed according to patient and exercise intervention characteristics. Methods A search of 6 electronic databases was undertaken to identify intervention studies published up to May 2025. Studies included individu
The dominant narrative on equity, diversity, and inclusion in U.S. medical research emphasises the underrepresentation of Black and Hispanic participants in clinical trials, largely based on therapeutic phase 2 and 3 trials. Far less attention has been paid to phase 1 trials—particularly those involving healthy volunteers who assume health risks without therapeutic benefit, often for money. Focusi
Background: Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder. Awareness and the evidence supporting the merits of palliative care (PC) approaches to people with Parkinson's disease (PwP) are increasing. Objective: This review aimed to address four key questions related to PC for PwPs and their caregivers: i) What are the indicators for timely access to PC? ii) When should PC be intr
