This paper interrogates how contesting state and marketplace ideologies in Sweden negotiates the construction of gender transgression in the mar- ketplace. There is always an incessant ideological battle among the differ- ent sides of a society – among the traditionalist and the more progressive, among those who embraces change and those who attempt to conserve corrupting the natural order. Betwee

Objective: To rapidly exclude severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection using artificial intelligence applied to the electrocardiogram (ECG). Methods: A global, volunteer consortium from 4 continents identified patients with ECGs obtained around the time of polymerase chain reaction–confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis and age- and sex-matched controls from the same sites. Cli

Social media offered new opportunities for politicians to engage withpublic. However, little research explored public perceptions of womenpoliticians, and their role in women empowerment, especially in nonWesterncontexts. This study used the qualitative methodology toexplore how young Emirati women made sense of women politicians andtheir social media posts. Drawing from the intersectionality theo

In this paper, we discuss political solidarity as fundamental characteristic of cooperative identity, which holds a transformative force that may trigger and sustain resistance and inspire social change. In particular we focus on different performances of solidarity, as these were observed in two workers’ cooperatives in Argentina and the UK, to articulate how cooperatives enact novel forms of mob

The contact burn injury model is an experimental contact thermode-based physiological pain model primarily applied in research of drug efficacy in humans. The employment of the contact burn injury model across studies has been inconsistent regarding essential methodological variables, challenging the validity of the model. This systematic review analyzes methodologies, outcomes, and research appli

Background: Breast compression in mammography is important but is a source of discomfort and has been linked to screening non-attendance. Reducing compression has little effect on breast thickness, and likely little effect on image quality, due to force being absorbed in the stiff juxta thoracic area instead of in the central breast. Purpose: To investigate whether a flexible compression plate can

Developing a novel therapeutic product for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a long, resource-intensive process. Novel biomarkers could potentially aid clinical trial design by shortening clinical trials or enabling better prediction of at-risk populations and/or disease progression. Novel clinical trial designs could lead to reduced costs of development and less burden to patients, due to

This paper numerically investigates the flow around a moving vehicle sheltered by a wind barrier. Flow control strategy aimed at reducing the aerodynamic loads on the road vehicles requires a detailed knowledge of the reference flow. Exploratory study is conducted in under-standing the flow physics involved in the wind barrier vehicle protection. Transient nature of the crosswind gust is represent

Technical innovations in the area of manufacturing logistics are being introduced partially and thus not exploiting their full potential. In order to optimise the efficiency of turning manufacturing processes, the process has been analysed and fundamentally re-engineered. All data from production (operations, quantities, date, time duration of operations, etc.) are now located in ERPsystem. It pro

Contemporary management increasingly acknowledges that employees have an important responsibility for communication. In employees’ interactions with supervisors, colleagues, and external stakeholders, they actively participate in the co-construction of everything from the organization’s internal communication climate, to the brand and reputation of the organization. This case encourages students t

Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome is often treated with hip arthroscopy (HA) with the goal of enabling return to sport. While the number of HAs has been rising, little is known about the rehabilitation process or about outcomes related to return to sport (RTS) following the procedure. The overarching aim of this thesis wasto describe the rehabilitation process following HA in Scandinavia

Migration played a central role in industrialisation by reallocating labour from the countryside to urban areas and centres of manufacturing where it was in high demand, and better remunerated, with implications for economic growth and individual well-being. We investigate the labour market performance of internal migrants in Sweden around the turn of the last century; a period of industrialisatio

Little is known about the contribution of the private health sector in managing malaria cases and contributing to malaria prevention and control efforts in Ethiopia. We assessed 102 private health facilities and 92 drug outlets in 20 districts of Oromia Regional State, Ethiopia, for their provision of malaria-specific services. Of the assessed health facilities 86% provided such services. Diagnosi

This paper investigates the machinability of AISI 316L stainless steel without and with NMI treatment, when machined with three different PcBN tool grades: low cBN content (50% vol.), medium (65% vol.) and high (90% vol.). The NMI treatment consisted of resulfurized and Ca-treated steels with two different Si/Al ratio. The tool materials were evaluated in terms of tool life, showing the best perfo

Background: There is an evident discrepancy between need and provision of evidence-based return-to-work (RTW) interventions in existing mental health services. Online dissemination of evidence-based interventions is presumed to reduce this gap. However, there is almost no knowledge available on perceived acceptability of digital RTW interventions among service users, which are factors that might i
