Predictors of the post-COVID condition following mild SARS-CoV-2 infection

Whereas the nature of the post-COVID condition following mild acute COVID-19 is increasingly well described in the literature, knowledge of its risk factors, and whether it can be predicted, remains limited. This study, conducted in Norway, uses individual-level register data from 214,667 SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals covering a range of demographic, socioeconomic factors, as well as cause-speci

Introduction: Transformations of European Welfare States and Social Rights

n this introductory chapter, we outline the literature in which the anthology is positioned and the anthology’s contribution hereto. We account for the questions addressed in the anthology and its structure based on three sections that each analyses transformations of European welfare states and social rights from macro, meso and micro level perspectives, respectively. As described in the chapter

Fossevariationer

Fossevariationer, examensproduktion #1 skådespelarprogrammet 2022Ett utdrag ur fyra pjäser av den norske dramatikern Jon Fosse. "I Fossevariationer låter vi scener ur fyra pjäser bilda en helhet tillsammans med scenografi, kostym och ljus. Rollerna befinner sig på olika platser geografiskt och i livet men ställs inför liknande djupt mänskliga frågor och utmaningar. Eller är det samma personer som

The challenge of comparing pollen-based quantitative vegetation reconstructions with outputs from vegetation models - a European perspective

We compare Holocene tree cover changes in Europe derived from a transient Earth system model simulation (Max Planck Institute Earth System Model - MPI-ESM1.2, including the land surface and dynamic vegetation model JSBACH) with high-spatial-resolution time slice simulations performed in the dynamic vegetation model LPJ-GUESS (Lund-Potsdam-Jena General Ecosystem Simulator) and pollen-based quantita

Kan en förälder med intellektuell funktionsnedsättning vara ’good enough’?

Parents with intellectual disabilities were recently highly stigmatized in Swedish society. In present times we have formulated human rights specially for this group of people, but still are parents with an intellectual disability a well-known target group in social work. This study aimed to investigate how different professional groups view parents with intellectual disabilities and how professio

PARKLIFE - a sound event

In this presentation the theatre maker Erik Pold will discuss the effect of simultaneity and group-dynamics created in the sound event Parklife. The event took place physically in two Copenhagen parks in august 2023, where audiences meet at designated locations, bringing their smartphones and headphones. The overall concept could be described as a form of audiowalk that primarily consisted of inst

Trädgårdsgatan

Trädgårdsgatan is a warm and heartfelt depiction of a divided Helsingborg and Sweden in transition. The play depicts three generations of women and their arduous efforts to deal with every-day life with work, marriage and children in the 1970s, 2000s and 2020s. Almost 50 years separate them, but they are united in their longing for a simpler and better life.At the centre of the story is Birgitta,

‘Hunger for Certainty’: Misrecognition, Masculinity and Agentic Action in India’s and Russia’s Desires for Neocolonial Subjecthood

This article takes as its point of departure the postcolonial understanding of the nation as a subject constructed through the colonial encounter. It argues that at the core of both colonial and postcolonial subject formations lies a desire for reconstructing a homogeneous nation that fulfils a ‘hunger for certainty’. The use of the term ‘hunger for certainty’ testifies to the emotional as well as

Sexually concordant selection on floral traits despite greater opportunity for selection through male fitness

Pollinators are important drivers of floral trait evolution, yet plant populations are not always perfectly adapted to their pollinators. Such apparent maladaptation may result from conflicting selection through male and female sexual functions in hermaphrodites. We studied sex-specific mating patterns and phenotypic selection on floral traits in Aconitum gymnandrum. After genotyping 1786 offsprin

Decentralized Federated Learning for Epileptic Seizures Detection in Low-Power Wearable Systems

In healthcare, data privacy of patients regulations prohibits data from being moved outside the hospital, preventing international medical datasets from being centralized for AI training. Federated learning (FL) is a data privacy-focused method that trains a global model by aggregating local models from hospitals. Existing FL techniques adopt a central server-based network topology, where the serv

Navigating the Upcoming European Union AI Act

The upcoming Artificial Intelligence (AI) Act is the European Union's attempt to regulate high-risk AI systems and foundation models. We give an up-to-date overview of the act's key requirements, explain how the high-risk classification works, and highlight what matters for its operationalization.

Cognitive Control in Distracted Dinosaurs

Cognitive control is a skill used to control one’s own behaviour to reach a goal. We compared this skill across archosaurs by using the distraction task on American alligators, emus, chickens, and common ravens. We investigated whether the animals would still find a food reward hidden behind one of two identical opaque barriers after picking up a food distraction. Results show that all species can

A concise review of glycerol derivatives for use as fuel additives

Due to renewable fuel mandates worldwide, the increase in biodiesel production has caused an oversupply of low-cost glycerol on the markets, which can negatively affect the sustainability of the biodiesel industry as a whole. In order to avoid that scenario, the transformation of glycerol into value-added products has been investigated, and the production of additives for internal combustion engin

Use of Linked Nordic Registries for Population Studies in Hematologic Cancers : The Case of Multiple Myeloma

Purpose: Linked health-care registries and high coverage in Nordic countries lend themselves well to epidemiologic research. Given its relatively high incidence in Western Europe, complexity in diagnosis, and challenges in registration, multiple myeloma (MM) wasselected to compare registries in Denmark, Finland, and Sweden.Patients and Methods: Data were obtained from four archetypal registries in
