Nonclusion is aligned with Universal Design and involves a critical approach to the categorisation of people. Specifically, nonclusion resists categorisations of bodies/roles and does not come with predefined or presupposed limits in terms of who something is meant for. While UD and nonclusion generally target Design and Architecture, this article explores how nonclusion can be conveyed through te

Housing provisions in the Western world, Australia included, are characterised by several challenges. New residential typologies are needed to cope with, for example, environmental and economic considerations of land use, escalating construction cost, and the lack of affordable housing. Urban form determines measures of density. It also spurs our common imaginaries of urban life. Hence,to calibrat

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane resident P5A-ATPases broadly affect protein biogenesis and quality control, and yet their molecular function remains debated. Here, we report cryo-EM structures of a P5A-ATPase, CtSpf1, covering multiple transport intermediates of the E1 → E1-ATP → E1P-ADP → E1P → E2P → E2.Pi → E2 → E1 cycle. In the E2P and E2.Pi states a cleft spans the entire membrane, holding

Outcome under-ascertainment, characterized by the incomplete identification or reporting of cases, poses a substantial challenge in epidemiologic research. While capture-recapture methods can estimate unknown case numbers, their role in estimating exposure effects in observational studies is not well established. This paper presents an ascertainment probability weighting framework that integrates

This article summarizes the state of the science on the role of the gut microbiota (GM) in diabetes from a recent international expert forum organized by Diabetes, Diabetes Care, and Diabetologia, which was held at the European Association for the Study of Diabetes 2023 Annual Meeting in Hamburg, Germany. Forum participants included clinicians and basic scientists who are leading investigators in

Purpose: This study aims to explore the experiences of care, psychosocial support, and psychosocial wellbeing among patients treated for COVID-19 in intensive care 12 to 18 months after discharge. Methods: This study used a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. Semi-structured interviews were performed with 20 adult patients treated for COVID-19 12 to 18 months after being discharged fro

Archived radar data has various applications, though it is often underutilised. Nevertheless, this information has the possibility to aid in the development of accurate and relevant climate adaptation tools, inform climate-resilient urban development strategies, and numerous other personal and societal applications. Our work in the RadClim Baltic Sea Region (BSR) project established the potential

Purpose: Small-bites suturing technique for laparotomy closure is now recommended as the standard of care. However, uptake of the practice remains slow. A medical technology called the SutureTOOL has been developed which can facilitate implementation of small-bites. The aim of the study was to compare the economic and clinical outcomes of laparotomy closure for patients using manual needle-driver

The global energy transition is not merely a technological shift toward renewable energy but also a transformation of power structures, agency, and governance. As nations and cities implement sustainable energy solutions, both traditional energy actors and new entrants are reshaping participation in the energy sector. Within this evolving context, the smart grid emerges as an arena where these dyn

Denna kandidatuppsats är en komparativ studie som behandlar på vilket sätt Moderaterna respektive Socialdemokraterna använt sig av de digitala kanalerna Facebook och YouTube. Partierna har använt dessa i sina respektive valkampanjer och i denna uppsats undersöker vi hur politiska budskap förmedlas i sociala medier utifrån de politiska avsikter och ideologier som styr partierna. Denna uppsats vände

On social media platforms, such as blogs, the boundaries between private life and working life can be blurred. When social media is used by people who can be seen as agents for human service organizations this can give rise to both ethical and relational issues. On the one hand socialworkers like everyone else should have the right to express opinions and act as private persons on the internet. On

Detta är en kombinerad kvantitativ och kvalitativ studie om gymnasieelevers instrumentval. I denna undersökning kommer elevernas egen åsikt att bli hörd i fråga om varför, vad och hur de gör när de väljer sina instrument. Hur ser elever på sina egna och andras val av instrument? Vilka faktorer finns det som påverkar elever i deras instrumentval? Om det är så att tjejer och killar väljer olika instThis is a mixed method research study about the instrument choices of upper secondary school students. The students’ own opinion regarding instrument choices is examined. Factors such as why and how a particular instrument has been chosen have been discussed. How do the students look at their own and others’ choice of instrument? What factors influence their choices? What does the distribution of

With today’s focus on the world’s environmental issues, it is important for organizations and companies to find a way to give their commitment credibility. By certification according to ISO 14001 you get an internationally acknowledged brand that is recognized by organizations and companies worldwide. But the road to certification isn’t just easy, to be able to certify your environmental managemen

Forskning har visat att ett konstant ökat materiellt välstånd inte är möjligt med hänsyn till jordens begränsade resurser, klimatförändringarna eller för att möjliggöra en hållbar utveckling. Uppsatsen undersöker förhållandet mellan den norm att aktiebolagsverksamhet ska syfta till att maximera avkastningen till aktieägarna och därigenom nyttan i samhället, mätt i materiellt välstånd, och behovet Research has demonstrated a causal link between the consistent growth in total human material wealth over the recent centuries and the consumption of the Earth's limited resources at the expense of the natural environment. For a multiplicity of reasons, it is now clear that it is no longer possible for capital accumulation and the rate of growth to continue at the rate it previously has if an
