Assessment of functioning in ADHD according to World Health Organization standards : First revision of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health Core Sets

Aim: To conduct the first revision of the World Health Organization International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) Core Sets for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Method: A Delphi-like method was used, integrating evidence from stakeholder feedback and developing and piloting the ADHD ICF Core Set platform to inform revisions to the ADHD Core Sets. Results:

Functioning and quality of life in transition-aged youth on the autism spectrum – associations with autism symptom severity and mental health problems

Previous research notes difficulties in functioning and low quality of life (QoL) among transition-age youth on the autism spectrum, and poor mental health may contribute to these difficulties. This study examined the role of autism symptom severity and mental health problems on self-reported functioning and QoL in treatment-seeking transition-age autistic youth. The study included 140 autistic yo

Glutamate, glycine, and especially the secretions of Ruditapes phillipinarum induce efficient foraging by juvenile Rapa whelks

Chemical signals are known to influence interactions within and among species of aquatic organisms, including gastropods. However, despite the indispensable roles of chemical signals in species interactions, little is known about their effectiveness, especially in gastropods. The rapa whelk Rapana venosa (Valenciennes, 1846) is an ecologically and economically important gastropod, but it has also

Cerebrospinal fluid reference proteins increase accuracy and interpretability of biomarkers for brain diseases

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers reflect brain pathophysiology and are used extensively in translational research as well as in clinical practice for diagnosis of neurological diseases, e.g., Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, CSF biomarker concentrations may be influenced by non-disease related inter-individual variability. Here we use a data-driven approach to demonstrate the existence of in

Clinical recognition of frontotemporal dementia with right anterior temporal predominance : A multicenter retrospective cohort study

INTRODUCTION: Although frontotemporal dementia (FTD) with right anterior temporal lobe (RATL) predominance has been recognized, a uniform description of the syndrome is still missing. This multicenter study aims to establish a cohesive clinical phenotype. METHODS: Retrospective clinical data from 18 centers across 12 countries yielded 360 FTD patients with predominant RATL atrophy through initial

Plasma neurofilament light protein is differentially associated with age in individuals with treatment-resistant schizophrenia and bipolar affective disorder compared to controls

Accelerated brain ageing has been observed in multiple psychiatric disorders. This study examined whether relationships between age and plasma neurofilament light (NfL) protein differed in individuals with psychiatric disorders (major depressive disorder (n = 42), bipolar affective disorder (n = 121), treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS, n = 82)) compared to two healthy control (HC) groups (n =

I denne bog forsøger forfatteren at afmontere de benspænd (krokben), som den svensktalende typisk oplever i mødet med dansktalende. Det drejer sig først og fremmest om den største sten i sprogforståelsen, nemlig den danske udtale, og den lidt mindre sten, det lumske ordforråd. Mange ord deler vi allerede, men der er også ord og vendinger, der komplicerer kommunikationen danskere og svenskere imell

If the Cap Fits : An empirical exploration of how ethical consumption is capped

Consumers’ ethical efforts are capped by unethical market forces. A longitudinal study of anti-consumers shows that when systemic support was removed, consumers previously fully committed to ethical lifestyles, exhibited symptoms of an ethical consumption gap, suggesting the problem lies not with the individual (gap) but with the context (cap).

Field, Formalisation, and Alienation : Entering the Field and Building Rapport During Social Distancing

Over-indebtedness—a situation in which individuals are unable to pay their expenses and debts get out of control—is increasing among young adults in Sweden, and predictions suggest that the problem will escalate after the COVID-19 pandemic. In this chapter we draw on our experience of initiating an ethnographic study of over-indebtedness among young adults during the COVID-19 pandemic, when opport

Identification of an osteopontin-derived peptide that binds neuropilin-1 and activates vascular repair responses and angiogenesis

The osteopontin-derived peptide FOL-005 stimulates hair growth. Using ligand-receptor glyco-capture technology we identified neuropilin-1 (NRP-1), a known co-receptor for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptors, as the most probable receptor for FOL-005 and the more stable analogue FOL-026. X-ray diffraction and microscale thermophoresis analysis revealed that FOL-026 shares binding si

All-cause and AIDS-related mortality among people with HIV across Europe from 2001 to 2020 : impact of antiretroviral therapy, tuberculosis and regional differences in a multicentre cohort study

Background: All-cause and AIDS-mortality in Europe has been decreasing between 1996 and 2020. However, regional differences as well as their drivers remain unclear. This study investigates mortality differences and their drivers, including usage of and response to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and active tuberculosis (TB), among people with HIV across Europe. Methods: People with HIV enrolled in Eu

Pulmonary Atresia with Intact Ventricular Septum, a National Comparison Between Interventional and Surgical Approach, in Combination with a Systemic Literature Review

This study aimed to compare long-term morbidity in patients with pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PA-IVS)treated with catheter-based intervention (group A) versus those undergoing heart surgery (group B) as initial intervention.Additionally, we conducted a systematic literature review on PA-IVS treatment. All neonates born in Sweden with PA-IVSbetween 2007 and 2019 were screened f

Medial temporal lobe atrophy patterns in early- versus late-onset amnestic Alzheimer's disease

BACKGROUND: The medial temporal lobe (MTL) is hypothesized to be relatively spared in early-onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD). Yet, detailed examination of MTL subfield volumes and drivers of atrophy in amnestic EOAD is lacking.METHODS: BioFINDER-2 participants with memory impairment, abnormal amyloid-β status and tau-PET were included. Forty-one EOAD individuals aged ≤65 years and, as comparison,

CMES Policy-Research Dialogue: Exploring Europe’s Changing Perceptions and Policies Toward Iran

For more than two decades, Iran’s nuclear program has been a central focus of Europe’s engagement with Iran. Presently, with the virtual collapse of the Iran nuclearagreement (JCPOA) and Iran’s support for Russia in the war against Ukraine—coupled with the repercussions of the Mahsa Amini protests and the war in Gaza— Europe’s relations with Iran are deteriorating as Iran’s interests in Europe are

The Brand Matrix : Corporte Brand Leadership Starts from the Inside

To run a successful business, you need to engage and inspire your employees. To do that, first clarify the promises and values that make up your organization’s identity core – then align the core with every aspect of the business. Drawing on his influential Harvard Business Review article, Mats Urde shows how to tackle this critically important task and forge a corporate brand identity that will b
