Housing adaptation aims to enable clients to live independently in their own homes. Studies focusing on participation in everyday life following a housing adaptation are lacking and needed. This study aimed to explore housing adaptation clients' experiences of participation in everyday life before and after a housing adaptation, through the lens of a housing adaptation, using a qualitative follow-
An optimal plasmonic resonance is derived for small homogeneous and isotropic inclusions in a lossy surrounding medium. The optimal resonance is given in terms of any particular eigenmode (electrostatic resonance) associated with the double-layer potential for a smooth, but otherwise arbitrary surface.
This article is based on a larger research project with the purpose to study how market aesthetics and student’s music culture are expressed in the Swedish music classroom. The empirical material consists of video observations of classroom activities in secondary school settings in Sweden. The theoretical framework consists of poststructuralist and social constructionist theory combined with theor
Zinc status was evaluated in 30 subjects with Crohn's disease. Intestinal resection had previously been performed in 23 of the subjects. The concentrations of zinc were determined in plasma, erythrocytes, percutaneous muscle biopsies, and in urine collected during 24 hours. The results were compared with those in 19 healthy controls. Most of the patients had a normal zinc status. The levels of zinZinc status was evaluated in 30 subjects with Crohn's disease.

I den här studien används extremvärdesanalys för att beräkna våguppspolning och årlig dynerosion med 10, 50, och 100 års återkomsttid. Frekvensanalysen baseras på en 40 år lång tidsserie med simulerad dynerosion och våguppspolning från Ängelholms strand i Skälderviken. Med SMB-metoden beräknas vågor ute till havs som sedan transformeras till kustnära vågor i vågmodellen SWAN. Våguppspolningen berä
Transboundary research collaborations (TRCs) are critical in supporting evidence-based actions to address complex global issues. However, there is still a lack of empirics, which would detail how TRCs are organised, how activities are facilitated, and how actors interplay. In this article, we address this gap through the evaluation of a North-South TRC against the 11 principles for TRCs by the Com
Muhammad Hejazi, deputy head of the Iranian Quds Force, is reported to have died of heart disease. However, a mysterious tweet hints that he might have been killed.
Lignin is one of the main components of plant cell walls, which provides mechanical support for plants and also contributes to resisting against plant pathogenic fungi. In the fruit industry, the lignin content can affect the quality of fruit. The biosynthesis of lignin involves a variety of enzymes, of which caffeoyl-CoA 3-O-methyltransferase (CCoAOMT) is a class of methyltransferases that plays
Background: Palliative care focuses on identifying, from a holistic perspective, the needs of those experiencing problems associated with life-threatening illnesses. As older people approach the end of their lives, they can experience a complex series of problems that health-care professionals must identify and document in their patients’ records. Documentation is thus important for ensuring high-
Background: In Europe, residential care homes (RCHs) rather than hospitals are the most common care facilities for the older adult and the place where most deaths occur in this age group. There is a lack of knowledge regarding end-of-life (EOL) discussions and how they correlate with symptoms and symptom relief. Objective: The aim was to examine the correlation between EOL discussions and symptom
Gemensamt ägande av energi har funnits i Sverige i många år. Med Ren energi-paketet från EU etableras nu en lagstiftning som introducerar ”energigemenskaper” som en ny organisationsform på energimarknaden. Målet med denna rapport är att introducera energigemenskap, hur det beskrivs i Ren energi-paketet och i Energimarknadsinspektionens förslag till ny lag för Energigemenskaper i Sverige. I rapport
En ideal bild av en aktör visar på självständighet och kontroll. För organisationer i det civila samhället är frågorna om beroende och oberoende ständigt brännande. Ett nytt krav på en ”effektrapport” väcker mycken tankemöda. Ska den idéburna verksamheten börja ”mäta en massa saker” i stället för att ”jobba, jobba!”?Kapitlet redovisar en studie som sträcker s
Amongst other factors, host behaviour critically determines the patterns with which blood parasites occur in wild host populations. In particular, migratory hosts that sequentially occupy distant sites within and across years are expected to show distinct patterns of blood parasitism depending on their population-specific schedules and whereabouts. Here, we monitored haemosporidian parasitism in t
Millimeter-wave cellular communication requires beamforming procedures that enable alignment of the transmitter and receiver beams as the user equipment (UE) moves. For efficient beam tracking it is advantageous to classify users according to their traffic and mobility patterns. Research to date has demonstrated efficient ways of machine learning based UE classification. Although different machine
Microhabitat conditions determine the magnitude and speed of microbial processes but have been challenging to investigate. In this study we used microfluidic devices to determine the effect of the spatial distortion of a pore space on fungal and bacterial growth, interactions, and substrate degradation. The devices contained channels differing in bending angles and order. Sharper angles reduced fu
