This chapter is a gendered critique of the tenure track (TT) model in Trinity College Dublin (TCD), the oldest and most prestigious university in Ireland, with a record of fast-paced change in gender representation since 2012. The methodology includes a documentary analysis augmented with qualitative data from TT appointees. All of those interviewed who had completed the TT process obtained tenure

With occupation as the core domain of concern for occupational therapy, key occupational concepts need to be explored to discern their relevance in informing and delineating occupational therapy practice. This chapter will present definitions and descriptions of the key concepts of occupational engagement, occupational balance, and occupational adaptation, highlighting their key attributes, theori

Determining the land cover (LC) data requirements used as input to noise simulations is essential for planning sustainable urban densifications. This study examines how different LC datasets influence simulated environmental noise levels of road traffic using Nord2000 in an urban area of 1 km2 in southern Sweden. Four LC datasets were used. The first dataset was based on satellite data (spatial re

The Asian steel industry produces 73 % of global steel and is expanding. The speed and plans for decarbonizing the Asian steel sector are thus globally important. Importing green Hot Briquetted Iron (HBI), iron ore reduced to iron with renewable hydrogen, from renewable-rich countries such as Australia, Brazil and South Africa, could be a good option to avoid constraints with access to renewables.

Background Studies on the survival of patients with home mechanical ventilation (HMV) are sparse. We aimed to analyse the impact of controlled hypercapnia on survival over 27 years among patients with HMV in Sweden. Study design and methods Population-based cohort study of adult patients starting HMV in the Swedish Registry for Respiratory Failure (Swedevox) during 1996–2022 cross-linked with the

Chronic wounds, particularly pressure ulcers, pose significant healthcare challenges, especially in the elderly population. This study presents an experimental murine model of chronically infected pressure ulcers using a single cycle of magnet-induced ischemic injury combined with infection by bioluminescent Staphylococcus aureus. The model addresses previous limitations in studying pressure ulcer

The nonlinear interaction of x rays with matter is at the heart of understanding and controlling ultrafast molecular dynamics from an atom-specific viewpoint, providing new scientific and analytical opportunities to explore the structure and dynamics of small quantum systems. At increasingly high x-ray intensity, the sensitivity of ultrashort x-ray pulses to specific electronic states and emerging

The Eastern Baltic area stands out as a unique location due to the finds of Europe’s youngest dated mammoth remains (12.6–11.2 ka cal BP). Our study explores the drastic climate and landcover changes during the extinction of these gigantic herbivores at the Pleistocene/Holocene boundary. We used macrofossil analysis to determine the major contemporary terrestrial plant genera present in the area a

The fall armyworm (FAW), an important migratory pest native to the Americas, was first detected in a nonnative region (West Africa) in 2016. In the following years, it quickly spread to multiple regions worldwide. FAW exhibits long-distance seasonal migration in both the Americas and Asia, primarily to take advantage of suitable seasonal habitats as they appear along the migratory pathways. Tropic

Creating shared value (CSV), environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investing, and responsible business conduct (RBC) are three frameworks used to assess companies' sustainability impacts. As a relative newcomer, we assess the role of CSV developed in the strategic management studies of Porter and Kramer in light of recent developments in ESG and RBC. Each framework offers its own perspective

By assessing carbon footprints and raising awareness of carbon labelling, the food sector is setting long-term targets to reduce carbon emissions and accelerate the transition to low-carbon food production. Carbon labelling, also known as carbon labelling, informs customers about a product's production, distribution, and disposal carbon emissions. This study examines how customers view carbon labe

Introduction: Dementia remains incurable, and treatment trials are typically conducted after the symptoms manifest, potentially too late in the disease process to alter its course. Early identification and intervention during the pre-diagnosis phase offer the potential to introduce more cost-effective strategies and enhance quality of life. This review aims to scrutinise emerging evidence and pres

In recent years, the prevalence of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and post-COVID-19 pulmonary fibrosis has risen. Nevertheless, effective diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers alongside targeted treatments are lacking, making lung transplantation the last resort for many patients with end-stage disease. However, bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), a manifestation of chronic lung allograft

This study explores how social origin, reflected by occupation and family name from both parents, has been passed down over the past 150 years in Sweden. It finds that intergenerational rank-rank associations in occupational status – a typical measure of social mobility – have remained surprisingly constant at levels around 0.27 – as in the US (Song et al., 2020). However, intergenerational correl

Static code checkers are tools that help software engineers by automatically finding defects without executing the programs. These tools contain a set of detectors that rely on static program analyses to find common programming defects or to enforce coding guidelines.While existing code checker frameworks package a rich collection of detectors, aimed at common bug defects, the effort to adapt thes

Type 1 diabetes is a chronic, autoimmune disease characterized by the destruction of insulin-producing β-cells in the pancreas. Early detection can facilitate timely intervention, potentially delaying or preventing disease onset. Circulating proteins reflect dysregulated biological processes and offer insights into early disease mechanisms. Here, we construct a genome-wide pQTL map of 1985 protein

Kultfilmsevenemang som Den Dåliga Filmfestivalen (Göteborg, 2019 och 2023-2025) och B-Filmsklubben (Malmö) erbjuder unika atmosfärer för publiken som besöker dem. I Malmö och Göteborg anordnar biograferna regelbundet festivaler och fristående visningar av kultfilmer som band andra The Room, Birdemic, och Miami Connection. Kännetecknande för dessa upplevelser är den översvallande atmosfär som skapaCult film events like The Bad Film Festival (Gothenburg, 2019 and 2023-2025) and The B-Film Club (Malmö) offer unique atmospheres to audiences. In the two Swedish cities of Malmö and Gothenburg, exhibitors run regular festivals and standalone screenings of cult films such as The Room, Birdemic, Miami Connection, and others where an effervescent atmosphere is generated, often featuring audience par

PURPOSE: Posterior fossa tumour (PFT) surgery carries a risk of mutism or severely reduced speech. As for higher-cognitive language functions, word-finding difficulties have been reported, but no study has compared pre- and postoperative word-finding speeds to identify impairment caused by surgery. The current study investigated changes in word-finding ability associated with PFT surgery and exami
