Comparison of ROS production of individual particle components from traffic-related sources can inform new health policies and emissions legislation. This work aims to quantify acellular ROS production and oxidative potential (OP) of such individual particle components from combustion, brake, tire, and road wear. Particle characteristics are probed to identify source-specific markers and improve t
The aim of this article is to reveal how care workers in the home-help services handle the process when older people’s relocation to a residential home is under consideration. Since the care workers are engaged daily in defining care receivers’ needs and yet have no formal influence on care decisions in Sweden, the focus is on how they solve this dilemma. In this inductive study, the theoretical f
Gruppen leds av professor Christina Brogårdh, där flera seniora och juniora forskare ingår samt doktorander. I gruppen ingår också en gästprofessor och personer som är anställda vid Skånes universitetssjukhus. Forskningen och undervisningen som bedrivs i gruppen innefattar flera olika områden, såsom: -Neurorehabilitering; tex återhämtning och fatigue efter stroke, nya rehabiliteringsmetoder förThe group is led by Professor Christina Brogårdh, and includes senior and junior researchers as well as doctoral students. A visiting professor and persons employed at Skåne University Hospital are also affiliated to the group. The research and teaching comprises several areas: - Neurorehabilitation; such as recovery and fatigue after stroke; new rehabilitation methods to improve sensorimotor fu
Syftar till att genom olika projekt bidra till ökad patientsäkerhet och till kvalitetsförbättringar inom sjukvården. Kunskap och erfarenheter utvecklas kring hur vårdgivare, både som individer och som sjukvårdssystem, kan erbjuda patienter en säkrare vård. Arbetet genomförs i interprofessionellt samarbete inom det medicinska/sjukvårdsområdet, men också i samverkan med andra vetenskapsområden, så Aims through different projects at improved Patient safety and Quality improvements within the healthcare system. Knowledge and experiences about how healthcare providers, both as individuals and as an organization, can provide a safer healthcare to patients are developed. This work is carried out through interprofessional collaboration within the medical/healthcare field, but also through collabo
Profilområdet utvecklar tvärvetenskapliga och gränsöverskridande hälsofrämjande strategier och metoder för proaktivt åldrande. Området fokuserar särskilt på kognitiv och muskuloskeletal hälsa som förutsättningar för aktivitet och delaktighet. Profilområdet ska utveckla metoder för att tidigt identifiera individer och grupper i riskzonen för ohälsa eller annan utsatthet med hjälp av ekonomiska, socThe profile area develops transdisciplinary health promotive strategies for proactive ageing. It focuses particularly on cognitive functions and musculoskeletal health as prerequisites for activity and participation. The profile area will develop methods for early identification of individuals and groups at risk of poor health or other vulnerabilities, using economic, social as well as biological
This report studies the interplay between the use of paper and of information and communication technology (ICT). The aim is to explore how these two products/services can be compared from an environmental point of view. Similarities, differences and functions of ICT and paper are analysed in order to address the question: what are the environmental implications from substituting the use of paper
To analyze the role of the classical and alternative pathways of complement activation in the effector phase of arthritis, we have induced arthritis in C3- and factor B (FB)-deficient (C3(-/-) and FB-/-) DBA/1J mice using well-defined monoclonal IgG2b and IgG2a antibodies to type II collagen. In control DBA/1J mice, severe swelling of the joints, destruction of cartilage and erosion of bone develo
(Graph Presented) A binder-free and solvent-free pencil-trace electrode with intercalated clay particles (mainly SiO2) is prepared via a simple pencil-drawing process on grinded Cu substrate with rough surface and evaluated as an anode material for lithium-ion battery. The pencil-trace electrode exhibits a high reversible capacity of 672 mA h g-1 at 100 mA g-1 after 100 cycles, which can be attrib
Public discourse and political climate policymaking are based on scientific reports and propose technological solutions to solve the crisis, primarily by changing fossil fuels to renewable energy. Rather than questioning growth and the overuse of natural resources—which has been at the core of green concern for decades—green growth is the motor in an economy that aims for continuous economic spin,
Following the line of the former Iron Curtain, the European Green Belt links protected areas across 24 countries, and restores key wildlife populations, wetlands and rural livelihoods. Its success proves that rewilding-grounded nature-based solutions can transform war-scarred frontiers into biodiversity-rich, climate-resilient lifelines, and challenges policymakers to replicate such mega-corridors
Our paper tries to verify the relation between international banks’ expansion and international automotive corporations’ overseas business in China. Pervasive phenomena indicate that foreign banks take following their clients as the initial strategy when they start overseas business in China’s market. As many previous literatures analyzed, in the beginning stage in a new foreign market, multinatio
In this chapter, we argue that to understand the interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary dialectics in sustainability science, it is useful to see sustainability science as a kind of management science, and then to highlight the hard–soft distinction in systems thinking. First, we argue that the commonly made natural–social science dichotomy is relatively unimportant and unhelpful. We then outline
Smart grids are widely promoted as key technologies for enabling low-carbon and flexible electricity systems, with households expected to play an active role through dynamic pricing and automation. This article examines the representation of households in Swedish energy policymaking. This is done by investigating how households are represented in two policy processes concerning smart grids and gri
