Substance use and mental health disorders commonly co-occur and they are frequently underpinned by history of psychological trauma. This symposium presents new data on the clinical presentation and documentation of trauma exposure, trauma-related disorders, and their treatment among adults entering substance use treatment, the implementation of integrated trauma-focused therapy in substance use tr

(Sunday, 7/29/2018) 3:00 PM - 6:00 PMRoom: Exhibit HallPurpose: The aim was to investigate if the setup of breast cancer patients could be improved using surface guided radiotherapy, compared to the conventional method using lasers and skin markings.Methods: Forty-seven patients, who received tangential or locoregional adjuvant radiotherapy, were positioned using a surface-based setup (SBS). Thirt

The experience of one’s identity being substituted by that of some entity from within or without challenges basic Western premises about the self. One of them is that we have a single, discrete identity or self that cannot be replaced by external influences, spiritual or otherwise. A related premise is that our conscious self owns and controls our body and mental life. A myriad of perspectives can

Accurate detection of cancer-associated molecular abnormalities in tumors could make cancer treatment more personalized. Affibody molecules enable high contrast imaging of tumor-associated protein expression shortly after injection. The use of the generator-produced positron-emitting radionuclide (68)Ga should increase sensitivity of HER2 imaging. The chemical nature of radionuclides and chelators

Neuroblastoma is pediatric cancer of the sympathetic nervous system which originates from the trunk neural crest cell population during embryonic development. Clinical representation of neuroblastoma ranges from a spontaneous regression to metastatic disease with only about 50% survival rate. Molecular events which turn normal development of sympathetic nervous system to tumorigenic has not been f

Engaging students in active participation and collaborative learning is an important pedagogical component of teaching and learning in higher education. Teachers use a variety of activities to engage students, such as interactive lectures, presentations, group activities, and projects. A metaphorical understanding of the teaching-learning process may help in the implementation of innovative and gr

The rate of cancer patients will continue to increase in the coming decades. Additionally, new treatments will continue to emerge. The increased survival rates and the anti-tumour medications used will without doubt contribute to an increased rate of patients with oncological emergencies. Patients with oncologic emergencies will foremost seek care at an emergency department, but physicians at othe

A design study, named $${\text {ESS}}\nu {\text {SB}}$$for European Spallation Source neutrino Super Beam, has been carried out during the years 2018–2022 of how the 5 MW proton linear accelerator of the European Spallation Source under construction in Lund, Sweden, can be used to produce the world’s most intense long-baseline neutrino beam. The high beam intensity will allow for measuring the neuA design study, named ESSνSB for European Spallation Source neutrino Super Beam, has been carried out during the years 2018–2022 of how the 5 MW proton linear accelerator of the European Spallation Source under construction in Lund, Sweden, can be used to produce the world’s most intense long-baseline neutrino beam.

Production of building materials is connected to a great deal of environmental degradation, and demand for materials is expected to increase. Currently, the construction industry is responsible for 23 % of the global GHG emissions, 40 % of the raw materials consumed globally, and 32 % of the waste generated in Europe. With urbanization and an increasing population, more buildings are needed in the

A Swedish Government Official Report was performed to investigate the possibility of a system with anonymous witnesses. This report examined whether incorporating anonymous witnesses could aid the legal process which otherwise may be hindered by primarily the culture of silence that exists within gang criminality. The investigation concluded that a system with anonymous witnesses should not be inc

Registreringshindret för tecken som endast består av en form som ger en vara ett betydande värde har varit en del av EU:s varumärkesrätt sedan den första gemensamma varumärkesdirektivet trädde i kraft 1989. Sedan dess har registreringshindret, som idag återfinns i artikel 7.1(e) iii VMF samt artikel 4.1(e) iii, fått stå i skymundan i förhållande till de andra två registreringshindren för tecken meThe exclusion for signs that consists exclusively of the shape which gives substantial value to the goods have been a part of trademark law of the EU since the first shared trademark-directive came into force in 1989. Since that day the exclusion, who today can be found in Article 7.1(e) iii TMR and Article 4.1(e) iii, have been forced to take a backseat in comparison to the other to exclusions fo

Within the circular economy, alternatives to fast-fashion include second-hand clothing consumption. The narratives surrounding second-hand clothing have shifted from the stigma of old, dirty, smelly clothing to trendy, sustainable, and bargain items. The environmental benefits of second-hand are realised through the increased use-intensity and avoided production of new garments. However, these ben

As cloud service providers becomes more prevalent, so does questions related to cost efficiency of hosted resources. Payment models for cloud hosted resources tend to be either subscription based or pay-as-you-go for computing resources, in this case for compound metrics of CPU, Data IO and Log IO. In order to find necessary resource provisioning, previous methods have tended towards observing the

Border carbon adjustment (BCA) policies are increasingly discussed as an instrument to avoid carbon leakage; however, their social implications are not well understood. Nevertheless, the EU introduced its CBAM, which will take effect in 2026. After showing that distributional impacts in exporting countries were not considered in the policy process, I examine the potential effects in South Africa,

The Green New Deal (GND) is an idea that has mobilised civil society in the United Kingdom (UK), leading to calls for a publicly led transformation of society away from fossil fuels. Despite the widespread support for a GND in the UK, government action at the national level remains stagnant. The recent burst of energy in local climate politics, with over 75% of local authorities in the UK declarin

The purpose of this study is to investigate how the lack of resources within a large treatment care organization (SiS) can affect the healthcare assistants professional work with the target group. The main focus was to investigate the contributing factors that affected the lack of resources in terms of the service providers work with the target group. Our findings indicated that the level of the e

This Bachelor thesis will go into depth of how the rhetorical arguments used by the Bush administration led to the justification of war against Saddam Hussien’s regime in Iraq 2003. This will be accomplished through the application of normative theory and its dif erent types of instruments, used on Bush himself and one of his colleagues in the Bush Administration, Paul Wolfowitz, who had the key i

The purpose of the essay is to investigate the reasons for Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022 by adopting a defensive and offensive realist perspective. Hypothetical explanations for the invasion such as balancing of threats are operationalized based on offensive defense policy, geographical proximity and military capability, while expansion of power is interpreted as challenging the status
