Religion and Indigenous Worldviews in Climate Change Adaptation – A Scoping Review

This thesis presents a scoping review of academic literature on the intersection of religion, spirituality, and Indigenous worldviews with climate change adaptation. While adaptation research has traditionally emphasised technical, institutional, and financial dimensions, the cultural and spiritual dimensions shaping community responses remain underexplored. To address this gap, the review systema

Early life intake of marine n-3 fatty acids, genetic fatty acid desaturase variants, and risk of celiac disease.

Background: We aimed to investigate if early life marine n-3 fatty acids and fish intake, and fatty acid desaturase (FADS) genetic variants, were associated with later risk of celiac disease (CeD).Methods: Among 85,244 children in the prospective Norwegian Mother, Father, and Child Cohort Study, fish and marine fatty acid intakes were estimated from questionnaires to mothers during pregnancy, and

The role of craving in gambling behavior : examining its relevance and links to psychological distress, personality, and demographics

BACKGROUND: Several studies have sought to investigate gambling craving and its potential contribution to gambling problems. One aim of this line of research has been to further examine whether craving should be considered a separate diagnostic criterion for gambling disorder, which it currently is not. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between craving and other risk factors—

Clinical aspects of impulsive-compulsive behaviors under dopaminergic treatment-A scoping review

ObjectiveDopaminergic medications are commonly prescribed for Parkinson's disease (PD), restless legs syndrome, pituitary and psychotic disorders. Accumulating evidence indicates that dopaminergic treatment triggers impulsive-compulsive behaviors (ICBs), yet systematic synthesis of clinical evidence remains limited.MethodThis scoping review summarizes original research directly clinically relevant

Number of risk factors versus infection after transrectal prostate biopsy : a nationwide population-based study

It is now updated at mid-term to reflect and respond to challenges for stroke care in Europe in 2025. METHODS: The SAP-E covers the entire chain of stroke care. The sections (state of the art, current status and targets) were developed by working groups and finalised based on inputs from the

Parenthood and the Gender Gap in Academic Careers

Using population-wide data on Swedish university researchers and teachers, we identify the effects of parenthood on academic careers. Leveraging staggered event-study models that compare mothers and fathers around first birth, we document widening gender gaps in publication output, wage income, promotion, and PhD completion. These gaps arise across all scientific fields. We further document substa

HARPS-N, TESS, and CHEOPS∗ discover a transiting sub-Neptune and two outer companions around the bright solar analogue HD 85426

We provide a detailed characterization of the planetary system orbiting HD 85426 (TOI-1774). This bright G-type star (: 0.99;: 1.13; age: 7.4 Gyr; V mag: 8.25) hosts a transiting sub-Neptune, HD 85426 b, with an orbital period of 16.71 d and a blackbody equilibrium temperature of K. By jointly analysing HARPS-N RVs, TESS, and CHEOPS photometric data and using two different stellar activity mitigat

Evolution of Indigenous Peoples’ Rights as Human Rights : Contribution of Sámi Rights Cases at UN Human Rights Treaty Bodies

Over four decades, Indigenous Sámi individuals and communities have submitted to United Nations human rights treaty bodies, including the Human Rights Committee, several complaints in respect of the three Nordic countries Finland, Norway, and Sweden. Many of these Sámi rights cases have made important contributions to the understanding and application of Indigenous peoples’ rights globally, in add

Investigating object orientation effects across 18 languages

Mental simulation theories of language comprehension propose that people automatically create mental representations of objects mentioned in sentences. Mental representation is often measured with the sentence-picture verification task, wherein participants first read a sentence that implies the object property (i.e., shape and orientation). Participants then respond to an image of an object by in

A war against education? : Violent conflict and the supply of schools and teachers in Burkina Faso

This paper examines how violent conflict affects the supply of education in one of the world’s poorest countries, Burkina Faso. We combine unique nationwide census data on all primary schools with geocoded records of Islamist violence to assess how local conflict exposure shapes school availability, staffing, and the mix of education provision.

Noncarrier mothers of hemophilia A patients with Intron 22 inversions often have other rearrangements

Background Inversions involving intron 22 (Inv22) of the F8 gene are detected in approximately 45% of all severe hemophilia A (HA) patients. Digital droplet polymerase chain reaction using milepost assays and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) allows robust diagnosis of inversions, copy number variations, and more complex rearrangements in F8 . Objectives A total of 350 HA pat

Unga under strecket - en ESO-rapport om fattigdom bland barn till utrikes födda

När föräldrar har låga inkomster minskar barnens möjligheter att exempelvis resa på semester eller delta i fritidsaktiviteter som kostar pengar. Att växa upp i ekonomisk utsatthet kan påverka barns framtidsutsikter negativt. Av den offentliga statistiken vet vi att barnfattigdom är vanligare bland familjer med utrikes födda föräldrar, men variationen inom gruppen är stor och delvis outforskad.I de

MYTH 3 : Shopping is the perfect therapy – consumption offers lasting happiness

This chapter challenges the widespread belief that shopping provides lasting happiness and stress relief. This myth, often referred to as ‘retail therapy’, suggests that consumption serves as an effective coping mechanism for emotional distress. Rooted in post-war consumer culture and reinforced by advertising, this idea has normalised the use of material goods to manage emotions, fostering a depe
