The third medium contact method utilizes a fictitious “third” medium to implicitly model contact interactions. When contact occurs, the fictitious medium is severely deformed which necessitates numerical regularization to ensure numerical stability. Ultimately, this regularization should promote good element quality but otherwise not interfere with the modeling of the contact mechanics. One approa
Migrant workers have long played a central role in the global food system, yet they often remain marginal in food sovereignty discourse and practice. In this paper, we discuss why and how migrant labour is overlooked and explore ways to more effectively integrate migrant workers into food sovereignty frameworks, including debates, discourse, mobilisations, and practices. Increasing numbers of ‘wor
Lifestyle interventions tend to reduce disordered eating short-term in children, but little is known about long-term changes. This study aimed to investigate changes in appetitive traits and episodes of overeating and binge-eating up to three years after a 10-week multicomponent lifestyle camp in 7–14-year-olds. Participants were referred to the lifestyle camp due to overweight/obesity, and/or psy
Street space transformations are increasingly being used to reduce car traffic in cities. In these processes, conflict is seen to emerge unpredictably and manifest in various, sometimes unexpected ways. We aim to contribute to the understanding of these conflicts by providing a context-specific framework for analysis, based on the assumption that conflicts over street space are potentially productStreet space transformations are increasingly being used to reduce car traffic in cities.

This article investigates how social workers enact ethical judgement in digitalised welfare organisations. Drawing on the concept of ethics work, it examines how engagements with digital systems involve ongoing processes of identifying, interpreting and responding to ethically salient aspects of practice. The study is based on an organisational ethnography in Swedish social services, combining 45

Artificial intelligence (AI) shows promise in identifying psychopathology through language, but replicability in AI models remains challenging. We develop an AI-based language assessment of posttraumatic-stress-disorder (PTSD) severity and introduce the sequential evaluation with model preregistration to rigorously evaluate its validity and replicability. This design includes two phases: developme
INTRODUCTION: Improving access to genetic testing has increased the number of individuals identified with cancer genetic predisposition. Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) and Lynch syndrome (LS) are key examples of high-risk hereditary cancer syndromes. Ensuring that carriers of germline pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants (GPVs) receive evidence-based risk counseling, surveillance and
Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) is increasingly seen as essential for mitigating climate change. In Global North countries like Denmark, Sweden and the UK, bioenergy carbon capture and storage (BECCS) projects have become a prominent component of national climate strategies. This perspective explores an emerging trend: the advancement of such projects through a co-financing model that combines state
Background: During the COVID-19 pandemic there was an increase in digital healthcare delivery. It is unclear how this was implemented among people intellectual disabilities (ID) who may struggle to access new technologies. This is important to investigate as this group already faces inequities in healthcare access.Research Question(s): Does the degree of health-related video-conferencing utilizati
Background: Women with intellectual disabilities have increased risks of pregnancy-related complications and adverse maternal outcomes. This could increase their risk of post-partum care needs. Research Question(s): Do post-partum healthcare utilization differ between women with intellectual disabilities and women from the general population?Methodology: Through national and regional registers, we
Background: Older people with intellectual disabilities have complex healthcare needs, with many somatic and psychiatric co-morbidities and high healthcare utilization, including unplanned (i.e., acute) healthcare contacts. However, little is known about predictors of unplanned healthcare contacts—a possible proxy for unmet healthcare needs, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic.Research Quest
BackgroundIschemic stroke remains a leading cause of disability and mortality worldwide, with limited acute therapeutic options. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid that regulates endothelial function, vascular integrity, and immune responses, and reduced circulating S1P levels have been reported in ischemic stroke. Whether plasma S1P depletion parallels alterations in brain-endothe
At Lund University (LU), we are increasingly working with linking inner and outer transformation and the inner development goals (IDGs) for accelerating sustainability across different disciplines, departments and levels. Related work started around ten years ago with the establishment of the Contemplative Sustainable Futures Program, which involves research, education, impact and outreach activit
Diet-induced metabolic dysregulation is associated with cerebral microvascular pathology contributing to cognitive decline and vascular dementia. These alterations include blood-brain barrier (BBB) leakage, pericyte dysfunction, aberrant angiogenesis, and perivascular neuroinflammation. Restoration of BBB integrity has been achieved in other conditions by targeting pericytes, for example through k
