Österskans är ett projekt som undersöker platsen med samma namn i Halmstad. Det gick från att på slutet av 1900-talet ha varit ett resecentrum till att kommunen 2017 utlyser en intresseanmälan till en markanvisningstävling för ett hotell med saluhall och restaurang. White Arkitekter vann, men publik uppmärksamhet och medieuppbåd gjorde att det blev fördröjningar innan det 2022 blev en folkomröstni

Background: The Online Remote Behavioral Intervention for Tics (ORBIT) study was a multicenter randomized controlled trial of a complex intervention that consisted of a web-based behavioral intervention for children and young people with tic disorders. In the first part of a two-stage process evaluation, we conducted a mixed methods study exploring the reach, dose, and fidelity of the intervention

Researchers from diverse disciplines, including organismal and cellular physiology, sports science, human nutrition, evolution and ecology, have sought to understand the causes and consequences of the surprising variation in metabolic rate found among and within individual animals of the same species. Research in this area has been hampered by differences in approach, terminology and methodology,

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive disease with no cure. Healthcare resource utilization (HCRU; hospitalization, outpatient visits, and drug utilization) before diagnosis and productivity loss (sick leave and disability pension) before and after PAH diagnosis are not well known. By linking several Swedish national databases, this study have estimated the societal costs in a nat

Metal-semiconductor nanoparticle heterostructures are exciting materials for photocatalytic applications. Phase and facet engineering are critical for designing highly efficient catalysts. Therefore, understanding processes occurring during the nanostructure synthesis is crucial to gain control over properties such as the surface and interface facets’ orientations, morphology, and crystal structur

Background: Since the publication of the EULAR recommendations for the management of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) in 2016, several randomised clinical trials have been published that have the potential to change clinical care and support the need for an update. Methods: Using EULAR standardised operating procedures, the EULAR task force undertook a systema

Background: During the COVID-19 pandemic, the use of face masks has increased among healthcare workers (HCWs). Questionnaire studies have shown a high frequency of self-reported facial adverse skin reactions. Case reports have been published on face mask-induced allergic contact dermatitis and urticaria. Objectives: To describe the results of the contact allergy investigations in consecutive HCWs

INTRODUCTION: We examined whether sex modifies the association between APOE ε2 and cognitive decline in two independent samples. METHODS: We used observational data from cognitively unimpaired non-Hispanic White (NHW) and non-Hispanic Black (NHB) adults. Linear mixed models examined interactive associations of APOE genotype (ε2 or ε4 carrier vs. ε3/ε3) and sex on cognitive decline in NHW and NHB p

Background: Several studies described the cross-sectional characteristics of systemic sclerosis patients and coexisting primary biliary cholangitis, but longitudinal prognostic data are lacking. Aims: To describe the systemic sclerosis–primary biliary cholangitis phenotype, including baseline characteristics and outcomes. Methods: We performed a multicentre the European Scleroderma Trials and Rese

In winter, a challenge to the immune system could pose a major energetic trade-off for small endotherms, whereby increasing body temperature (Tb; i.e. eliciting fever) may be beneficial to fight off invading pathogens yet incur a cost for vital energy-saving mechanisms. Having previously shown that the availability and acquisition of energy, through manipulation of food predictability, influences

Introduction. Recently, more attention is being paid to the drug-induced liver injury (DILI) as a consequence of the tuberculos is treatment and the need for new medicine is emphasized. The use of isoniazid and rifampicin has a potentiating effect, which increases the risk of substancial liver damage. In turn, systemic accumulation of toxic metabolites leads to negative changes in various organs,

Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) has gained recent popularity mainly due to its attractive nutritional profile and its ability to grow under extreme conditions such as salinity, acidity, drought, flooding, and frost as well as the functionality of its component. Starch is the main component of quinoa grain which constitutes up to 60% of the dry grain and plays a crucial role in the functional pr

In this essay, I explore an innovative theme in the interfaces between theology, gender studies, aesthetic theory, and literary studies. More specifically, my aim is to shed light on fundamental theological conflicts underlying the immensely complex subject of the elevated status of "the beautiful woman" as image and idea in Western society. This will be implemented through a close reading of the

The outcome of catheter ablation (CA) of atrial fibrillation (AF) is vastly analyzed by the entire P-wave duration (PWD). However, the first and second P-wave parts, corresponding to right (RA) and left atrial (LA) wavefront propagation, may be unequally modified. Five-minute lead II recordings before and after the first-ever CA of 40 parox-ysmal AF patients were analyzed and P-wave features were

During eyeblink conditioning, Purkinje cells that control blinking develop an inhibitory response to the conditional stimulus. This conditional response (CR) in the Purkinje cell shows a number of striking similarities to the overt blink CR, including adaptive timing. The evidence suggests that the Purkinje cell CR drives the overt CR. Recent results show that the Purkinje cell CR does not depend

BACKGROUND: Many factors influence housing choices among older adults, but far from all have been identified. There is little systematic analysis that has included economic factors and virtually no knowledge about the interplay among perceived costs of moving, health status, and the mobility rate of older homeowners. It is currently unclear whether economic factors influence older adults' willingn
