Evaluation of intrafractional motion for patients receiving whole brain radiotherapy in open-faced immobilisation masks

Purpose/Background Patients receiving whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) today are treated with an immobilisation mask which fully covers their face and therefore might be experienced as uncomfortable and claustrophobic. In recent years, optical surface scanning (OSS) systems have been implemented for patient positioning and real-time motion monitoring [1]. OSS systems cannot track the patients surfa

Investigating the impact of stormwater fouling on polysulfone ultrafiltration membranes modified with deep eutectic solvents

In this study, we evaluate the performance of modified polysulfone (PSF) ultrafiltration (UF) membranes, which incorporate deep eutectic solvents (DES), in treating stormwater laden with natural organic matter e.g. chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total suspended solids (TSS). We also aim to understand how these organic substances, e.g. COD, TSS, from the water source contribute to the fouling of

Utilization of Methods for Pain Treatment and Management Among Older Adults with Chronic Pain

BackgroundOlder adults have a high prevalence of chronic pain, which can have a substantial effect on their health and quality of life. Patients’ use of effective pain relief methods is a central part of the treatment and management of chronic pain. The utilization of pain relief methods and their perceived effectiveness are important knowledge for treating and managing chronic pain for clinicians

The design of transformative research and innovation policy instruments for grand challenges : The policy-nesting perspective

Several countries have created policy instruments seeking to direct research and innovation (R&I) toward addressing societal challenges. However, the design of such instruments might not always live up to their proclaimed transformative rationale. The aim of this paper is to examine empirically this matter. In a unique cross country comparison of four Grand Challenge-oriented R&I programs

The Square: Putting place-based innovation policy for sustainability at the centre of policy making

Place-based innovation policy for sustainability is essential for the delivery of the European Green Deal. In the current twin green and digital transition, deep societal transformations and new innovative solutions emerge in concrete territories. In this anthology, leading scholars reflect on the conditions for place-based innovation for sustainability and its consequences for directionality, str

Luther’s Use and Reception of Erasmus’ New Testament

Artikeln undersöker Martin Luthers reception av Erasmus Novum Testamentum omne som översättare av texten i andra upplagan (1519) och som engagerad läsare av Annotationerna i den fjärde upplagan (1527). Man drar slutsatsen att Luthers primära Vorlage för hans tyska översättning av Galaterbrevet var den grekiska kolumnen i Erasmuss andra upplaga (1519), medan hans översättning av Hebréerbrevet huvudThe article examines Martin Luther’s reception of Erasmus’ Novum Testamentum omne as a translator of the text of the second edition (1519) and as an engaged reader of the Annotations in the fourth edition (1527). It is concluded that Luther’s primary Vorlage for his German translation of Galatians was the Greek column of Erasmus’ second edition (1519), while his translation of Hebrews mainly refle

Det absoluta gehörets betydelse i gehörsundervisning – En intervjustudie utifrån både elevers och lärares perspektiv på gymnasieskolan och musikhögskolan

Denna studie fokuserar på gehörs- och musiklära-undervisning på gymnasienivå och högskolenivå där fenomenet absolut gehör är i fokus. Studien är gjord utifrån två gruppers perspektiv: elever med absolut gehör, och lärare med erfarenhet av att under visa av elever med absolut gehör. Studien belyser framför allt hur lärare anpassar undervisningen till elever med absolut gehör samt vad elever med absThis study focuses on ear training at secondary and university level where the phenomenon of absolute pitch is in focus. The study is partly from the perspective of two groups: students with absolute pitch, and teachers with experience teaching students with absolute pitch. Above all, the study highlights how teachers adapt their teaching to students with absolute pitch and what students with abso

Assessing the Transformative Potential of a Sociocracy-Informed Climate Change Adaptation Lab in Lund, Sweden

Effective climate change adaptation necessitates enhanced public participation as there is a need for the voice of people to be meaningfully incorporated to facilitate transformational adaptation, contend with complexity, and avoid maladaptation. Despite this, widespread participation in climate change adaptation governance in Global North countries like Sweden is currently restricted by rigid pow

Challenges to Lean 4.0 in the Pharma Supply Chain Sustainability
