Background: Classification attempts and treatment strategies for endometriosis have been predominantly biomedical. Symptom profiles observed in individuals with endometriosis are multidimensional and may be more effectively captured by a biopsychosocial model. Methods: The aim of this study was to identify distinct subgroups of individuals with endometriosis based on their biopsychosocial profiles

Since the late 1990s, a new school subject has emerged in Taiwan and Hong Kong, called “Life Education” (shengming jiaoyu 生命教育) that resembles Swedish forms of livskundskap. Inspired by the desire to assist students in their search for orientation in life and to counteract the alarmingly high suicide rate among young people in a success-driven society, Taiwan’s Ministry of Education has worked con

Background Pulmonary nodules (PNs) are clinically challenging because differentiation between benign and malignant PNs is not possible at CT detection; recurring CT examinations and invasive procedures are often required in PN follow-up. Purpose To investigate PN prevalence in a middle-aged population and the risk factors associated with these nodules. Materials and Methods In this secondary analy

Background: – The use of antibiotic-loaded bone cement (ALBC) in primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is debated. Some argue that ALBC might only be justified in high-risk patients. This study assessed the effectiveness of ALBC vs. plain bone cement (PBC) in reducing risk of revision for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in TKA patients considered to have a high risk of infection.Methods: – Co

A new species of Diglyphus Walker, D. albifemur Liu, Hansson & Guo, sp. nov., is described based on extensive material from China collected from 2016 to 2024. The entire material included here has been reared from agromyzid leafminers (Diptera, Agromyzidae), mainly from Phytomyza vitalbae Kaltenbach, mining leaves of Clematis orientalis L. The new species is morphologically similar to the Euro

The 2022 EU Directive on Adequate Minimum Wages aims to ensure adequate minimum wages and strengthen collective bargaining in order to reduce in-work poverty and wage inequality. The national transposition and implementation of the Minimum Wage Directive will be heavily shaped by the existing collective bargaining and minimum wage regimes in the 27 EU Member States. To monitor and understand the

The article contributes to the research of platformisation of everyday life and children’s television use by exploring how 0-3-year-olds’ television viewing on screen media is embedded in daily social practices of families in Sweden. The article examines the research questions: 1) What social practices are organised around young children’s television viewing on screen media? 2) How can these telev

The impact of the Russian war against Ukraine should have far-reaching repercussions on the teaching of International Relations (IR) and European Union (EU) studies. In this article, it is argued that Ukrainian resistance to the invasion must be part of an important shift in thinking about IR and the EU within holistic planetary politics. First, the terminologies and technologies of teaching IR an

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells are a promising green energy conversion technology for clean and sustainable power generation. However, effective water management remains a critical challenge. Water produced by electrochemical reactions can accumulate within porous electrodes and flow channels, leading to flooding that impedes the reverse transport of reactant gases to the reaction zone, there

This article examines the media construction of Duke Johan of Östergötland (1589–1618), a Swedish prince, through the lens of his recorded gift giving practices. It posits that gifts should be conceptualized as media, shaping the construction of Duke Johan as a ruler and virtuous prince, both in the early seventeenth century and for posterity. By analyzing the remediation of Duke Johan’s gift givi

Between 1850 and 1930, millions of Europeans emigrated to the United States, attracted by opportunities for a better life. We study the role of migrant networks in fostering emigration, using individual-level Swedish full-count census data for men and women, linked to emigration records. Our findings show that having previously migrating siblings was an important determinant of emigration, particu

We propose a single-shot Carrier-Envelope Phase measurement scheme, based on evaluating f-2f fringes by means of optical Fourier transform. The method is suitable for measuring at high-repetition rate (> 200kHz) and low pulse energy.

Acute mesenteric venous thrombosis accounts for up to 20% of all patients with acute mesenteric ischemia in high-income countries and is a very difficult disease to diagnose on clinical grounds. However, owing to the increased availability and evolution of computed tomography in high-income countries, early diagnosis prior to the development of peritonitis is often possible. First-line therapy is

Background: Recurrent coarctation of the aorta (re-CoA) is a well-known although not fully understood complication after surgical repair, typically occurring in 10%–20% of cases within months after discharge. Objectives: To (1) characterize geometry of the aortic arch and blood flow from pre-discharge magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in neonates after CoA repair; and (2) compare these measures bet

This paper investigates online gender-based violence (OGBV) in China using the perspectives of queer feminism and cyberfeminism. As a case study, it examines the cyberviolence against the “Pink Hair Girl” on Xiaohongshu (a popular Chinese social media platform) and the subsequent resistance by women. The study focuses on the following questions: How does the symbolic use of pink hair represent que

The work studied the concept of introducing electrolyzer waste heat in between the district heating condensers to study the effects. This was done through IPSEpro where a model of a small-scale Swedish CHP-station was built. Two different cases were analyzed, where one CHP-station was analyzed as an existing (i.e., a fixed geometry) station and the other as a future potential station with external

In recent decades, changes in vegetation phenology have exhibited a tight coupling with global warming. Mountain ecosystems are particularly susceptible to climate change, with high elevations warming faster than lower areas. The inconsistent rate of temperature change across elevations may lead to synchronization of phenological patterns, reducing the differences in phenology timing between high
