Sociodemographic inequalities in the occurrence of low back pain (LBP) are well-studied. This study aimed to examine complex sociodemographic inequalities in the risk LBP consultation in the population from a socioeconomical intersectional perspective. Using register data, we identified 458,852 individuals aged 35-75 years residing in Skåne in 2013, with no previous LBP consultation since 2006. We
The diversity and community composition of moths (both macro- and micromoths) at 32 sites, representing a wide range of habitat types (forests, grasslands, wetlands, agricultural and urban areas) within a restricted region in central Scania,southern-most Sweden, was investigated by use of light moth traps and compared with vascular plant species richness and habitat characteristics. The results re
Although the use of location-based data (location coupled with semantic information) within Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and from Earth Observation (e.g. satellite) sources has been long established for decision makers, this has only recently been reflected in the construction sector with a more recent move from Computer Aided Design (CAD) to Building Information Modelling. BIM has opene
For Those About to Rock... – A study of views of the ensemble repertoire in the aesthetic programme in Swedish high schools In my paper I will present the result of an inquiry made in the aesthetic program in Swedish high schools. The survey covers nine different groups in three different schools in Skåne. As background to my study I have used experiences I have had during my practical workplace t
The efficiency and durability of Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells (PEFCs) depend on optimizing porous media components such as gas diffusion and catalyst layers. In parallel, the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) has emerged as a powerful tool to model fluid flow, mass transport, and multiphase interactions in complex porous structures. This works provides a concise overview of recent advances in apply
The Circular Economy (CE) concept is widely promoted as a pathway to sustainability, yet its practical realization can appear to be challenging and unclear due to divergent definitions, interpretations and understanding about the implications and goals of a realized CE. Addressing this gap, this study develops the Circular Economy Loop Strategies (CELS) Framework, a synthesizing foundational model
The field of attosecond physics has expanded significantly in recent years, yet experimental facilities supporting attosecond pump–attosecond probe spectroscopy remain rare. Here, we present a newly constructed beamline for the generation and application of energetic, isolated extreme ultraviolet (XUV) and soft x-ray attosecond pulses via upscaling of high-harmonic generation (HHG) in a gas medium
Semiconductor double quantum dots (DQD) coupled to superconducting microwave resonators offer a promising platform for the detection of single microwave photons. In previous works, the photodetection was studied for a monochromatic source of microwave photons. Here, we theoretically analyze the photodetection of single microwave pulses. The photodetection in this case can be seen as a nonlinear fi
Drug-resistant bacterial infections are among the most severe physiological challenges facing human health. Therefore, the detection and inactivation of pathogenic bacteria remains a crucial therapeutic goal in modern society. In this study, we design multifunctional nanocomposites aimed at bacterial binding, fluorescence labeling, and synergistic antibacterial treatment. These nanocomposites are
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have significant potential for disease modeling and cell therapies. However, their wide-spread application has faced challenges, including batch-to-batch variabilities, and notable distinctions when compared to embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Some of these disparities can stem from using undefined culture conditions and the reprogramming procedure, however, the
Since 2016, the city of Stockholm has been replacing one of the region’s most important communication hubs, the so-called Slussen (The Lock). This enormous building site is situated within the historical city area of Stockholm. For this reason, archaeologists have been involved throughout the process, mapping a giant historic topographic jigsaw puzzle. This paper is a meta-study of the archaeologi
AI cancer detection models require calibration to attain the desired balance between cancer detection rate (CDR) and false positive rate. In this study, we simulate the impact of six types of mismatches between the calibration population and the clinical target population, by creating purposefully non-representative datasets to calibrate AI for clinical settings. Mismatching the acquisition year b
Objectives Longitudinal health monitoring studies including Para athletes are lacking in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This study aimed to introduce a surveillance programme developed for Swedish Para athletes to high-level South African Para athletes and describe their self-reported health outcomes.Design Using a prospective cohort design, we distributed weekly electronic surveys to P
The metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) dynamics of beta-gallium oxide (β-Ga2O3) growth using trimethylgallium (TMGa) and oxygen as precursors were investigated through both theoretical thermodynamic analysis and experimental validation in a horizontal low-pressure hot-wall reactor. Thermodynamic analysis revealed that high-purity β-Ga2O3 can be grown through the complete combustion of
We report a Mueller matrix ellipsometer design using dual continuously rotating anisotropic meta wave plates, which determines the full set of Mueller matrix elements in the terahertz spectral range. The instrument operates in the frequency domain and employs a frequency tunable, solid state synthesizer based, continuous wave terahertz source with sub-MHz bandwidth. The implemented source permits
This paper assesses the communication and the use of climate scenarios at the science–science and science–policy interface in Finland, Sweden and Norway. It is based on document analysis and stakeholder questionnaires. The questionnaires targeted three stakeholder groups, all engaged in the communication and the use of climate scenario information: climate scenario producers; impact, adaptation an
Separating how surface and subsurface species affect catalytic function is a challenging task in heterogeneous catalysis, particularly when deposition and segregation take place at reaction conditions. Here, we report on an operando approach to establish surface/subsurface/function correlations. Using temperature modulations we oscillate carbon deposition and segregation over a Pd catalyst. Cataly
