Panel for Pollen Conference in Lund 2024Exploring transitions for marine environmental governance: the potential of communities and bottom-up processes as alternative pathways to sustainabilityFacilitating the potential of communities and bottom-up governance for transitions to sustainability (T2S) sparks key questions of political ecology. Marine environmental governance exposes such challenges r

How to include knowledge and actors from local and regional levels like small-scale fishers and their communities in overarching governance frameworks? This is a pertinent question for ongoing Blue Economy processes, as highlighted e.g., in the Manifesto from the 2021 MARE conference. In an ongoing “from research to practice” project, we investigate how to include local and regional perspectives a

Background:Several previous studies have analyzed patient experiences of long-acting injectable buprenorphine (LAIB) in treating opioid use disorder (OUD). This treatment approach reduces the need for daily supervised clinic visits, but also fundamentally changes the dynamic of the relationship between patients and staff. The perspective of staff working with opioid agonist treatment (OAT) on LAIB

BACKGROUND: European guidelines recommend the use of a 0h/1h hs-cTn (high-sensitivity cardiac troponin) protocol in patients with acute chest pain. We aimed to determine the performance of this protocol in routine care when supplemented with patient history and ECG and a recommendation to refrain from noninvasive testing in low-risk patients.METHODS AND RESULTS: This was a pre- and postimplementat

To investigate multimodal signals in cat–human communication we recorded 36 cat–owner interactions in everyday situations that were judged by the owners for valence (negative, mixed or positive). We then coded the videos for behaviour using an ethogram including vocal, visual and tactile (multimodal) signals. Vocalisations were segmented and acoustic measures of duration and F0 obtained. In cats,

Plasma proteomics offers high potential for biomarker discovery, as plasma is collected through a minimally invasive procedure and constitutes the most complex human-derived proteome. However, the wide dynamic range poses a significant challenge. Here, we propose a semi-automated method based on the use of multiple single chain variable fragment antibodies, each enriching for peptides found in up

This thesis addresses the critical issue of design and development of products like production machines for SMEs and rural communities as an essential capability to foster local technology development within the innovation systems of Latin America. What is studied and discussed in this thesis is the pre-requisites for effective application of design and development methods, like design thinking fo

Energy economists have long argued that energy systems need to be adaptable in the face of shocks. In the early twentieth century, Denmark embodied the opposite, with its industry almost entirely dependent on imports of coal from the UK. Towards the end of the First World War, however, and well into the 1920s, coal imports became expensive and more difficult to obtain. Local diversification was po

This paper compares general measures against tax avoidance and the design of general anti-avoidance rules (GAARs) in Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden. It focuses on aspects such as tax benefits, tax purposes, economic substance, and breaches of legislative purpose. The paper also examines potential compliance issues between national GAARs, tax treaties, and the European Union’s Anti-Tax Avoida

BACKGROUND: Discrimination may further impede access to medical care for individuals in socially disadvantaged positions. Sociodemographic information and perceived discrimination intersect and define multiple contexts or strata that condition the risk of refraining from seeking physician's care. By applying analysis of individual heterogeneity and discriminatory accuracy (AIHDA) we aimed to impro

A search for leptoquark pair production decaying into te-t¯e+ or tμ-t¯μ+ in final states with multiple leptons is presented. The search is based on a dataset of pp collisions at s=13TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb-1. Four signal regions, with the requirement of at least three light leptons (electron

Bakgrund Långvarig behandling med opioida läkemedel, här definierat som> 3 månader, på indikation långvarig icke-malign smärta är vanligt förekommande i smärtvården. Vid undersökningar i Lund och Linköping har noterats att ungefär en tredjedel av populationen vid smärtklinikerna exponeras för opioidbehandling, trots avsaknad av evidens och samtidigt väl kända risker med behandlingen.
