Beyond humanities qua digital : Spatial and material development for digital research infrastructures in HumlabX

Universities around the world have increasingly turned to digital infrastructures as a way to revamp the arts and humanities. This article contributes a fresh understanding by examining the material development of HumlabX, a research laboratory for digital humanities at Umea° University, Sweden. Specifically, we approach the empirical case as a timeline of research funding, projects, events, and d

Utilization of Formal and Informal Care by Community-Living People with Dementia : A Comparative Study between Sweden and Italy

Background: Dementia is a public health priority with a dramatic social and economic impact on people with dementia (PwD), their caregivers and societies. The aim of this study was to contribute to the knowledge on how utilization of formal and informal care varies between Sweden and Italy. Methods: Data were retrieved from two trials: TECH@HOME (Sweden) and UP-TECH (Italy). The sample consisted o

Selective negative-ion formation from core-valence doubly excited states of the water molecule

This study focuses on the role of negative-ion formation in the decay of core-valence doubly excited water molecules. Combining negative- and positive-ion coincidence measurements with calculated energies of core-valence doubly excited states, we find that O- and H- production is enhanced selectively. In particular, we suggest that O- production is correlated to double occupancy of the antibonding

Stroke and universal design

Universal Design (UD) is usually stated to be “for all ages and abilities”. Given that stroke is a major source of disability, it is important that UD recommendations take stroke-specific problems into account. Within the framework of EU project STARR, we have investigated user requirements of stroke survivors. In this project we have used a mix of interviews, focus groups, design workshops and te

Bringing human diversity into design processes through empathic modelling

Most products are developed while adapting to requirements from industrial production and logistics. To break that trend and design for people, we suggest focusing on those who put the strongest demands on the final solution. They cannot compensate for bad design solutions and are thereby, like sniffing dogs, guiding designers to meet peoples’ needs. We always use a combination of empathic modelli

Historiska perspektiv på den katolska kyrkan och demokratin

I vår tid framträder katolska kyrkan som en ivrig försvarare av mänskliga rättigheter och demokrati. Så har det inte alltid varit. I själva verket var det först med andra vatikankonciliet (1962-1965) som dessa idéer integrerades i den katolska socialdoktrinen. Erkännandet av de mänskliga rättigheterna och den liberala demokratin som ett fundament för samhällsordningen innebar en omvälvande nyorien

Serum Neurofilament Light Chain for Prognosis of Outcome after Cardiac Arrest

Importance: Prognostication of neurologic outcome after cardiac arrest is an important but challenging aspect of patient therapy management in critical care units. Objective: To determine whether serum neurofilament light chain (NFL) levels can be used for prognostication of neurologic outcome after cardiac arrest. Design, Setting and Participants: Prospective clinical biobank study of data from t

Bildbeskrivning för tillgänglighet : Riktlinjer, forskning och praktik

Dagens tryckta och digitala texter är inte bara språkliga utan komplexa och multimodala. Det innebär att de förutom den språkliga texten innehåller även bilder och grafiska medel av olika slag. I denna komplexa textvärld är det extra viktigt att tillgängliggöra bilder så att användare med synnedsättning inte missar viktig information och har samma möjlighet att tillgodogöra sig innehållet som seen

Overuse of methylphenidate : an analysis of Swedish pharmacy dispensing data

Purpose: To identify overuse of methylphenidate and to investigate patterns of overuse in relation to sociodemographic and clinical characteristics.Patients and methods: Swedish national, pharmacy dispensing data were analyzed for all 56,922 individuals aged 6-79 years, who filled a methylphenidate prescription between 2010 and 2011. Overuse was defined as having above 150% days covered by the dis
