This paper explores the challenges and barriers of forced migrants at the nexus of housing and social integration, presenting the outcomes of an international and interdisciplinary collaboration funded by the JPI Urban Europe programme. Research includes the case study cities Leipzig, Lund, Riga, and Vienna, utilizing primary and secondary data in a transdisciplinary process involving theoretical
Multilevel Analysis of Individual Heterogeneity and Discriminatory Accuracy (MAIHDA) is a multilevel regression approach grounded in intersectionality theory. It examines inequalities across intersections of social identities (e.g., gender, ethnicity, class) and is argued to provide more accurate predictions of intersectional means than conventional methods that estimate group means directly or vi
For circular retail models to successfully replace linear consumption in the future, retailers must understand the lived reality of second-hand customer journeys. However, existing customer journey mapping methods often fail to capture the non-linear, phygital, and multi-retailer nature of such journeys. This article introduces ‘messy customer journey self-mapping’, a novel qualitative method desi
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is a well established intervention for secondary prevention after myocardial infarction (MI), yet substantial variability in CR delivery and patient outcomes persists globally. This review provides an in-depth overview of the SWEDEHEART-CR registry, a comprehensive Swedish national quality registry that has facilitated continuous quality improvement and clinical researc
BACKGROUND: A growing body of evidence links microRNAs (miRNAs) to major depressive disorder (MDD). However, the causal nature of these associations remains unclear.OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate the potential causal association between miRNAs and MDD by combining Mendelian Randomization (MR) analyses and experimental validation.METHODS: Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) signific
To generate the required antiproton beam intensity for the FAIR PANDA experiment, a dedicated proton LINAC (pLINAC) for the FAIR accelerator chain is being constructed. Klystron modulators are power converters within the high-power RF system of the pLINAC. Here, seven modulator systems with a nominal pulse power amplitude of 115 kV / 54 A, an effective pulse width of 360 µs and a pulse repetition
OBJECTIVES: To identify the lowest sensitivity and specificity that physicians and the general population consider acceptable for medical artificial intelligence (AI), relative to current human performance.METHODS: In a nationwide, cross-sectional survey in Sweden, 2025, random samples of 500 physicians and 500 adults from the general population were mailed a questionnaire presenting three vignett
The fields of cultural tourism and heritage management are gaining attention for their potential to be better linked, particularly in terms of practical applications. This paper proposes a taxonomy of heritage resources and related heritage-based tourism types and their linkages for specific case study areas, building on the established product class approach in cultural tourism studies. The resea

A lot of research involves spectral or polarimetric imaging in applications such as medicine, material science, and molecular science. Spectral imaging allows the acquisition of multiple spectral bands of a scene, while polarimetric imaging enables the extraction of a scene's polarisation. Combining the two imaging techniques simultaneously is referred to as multiparametric imaging. Today, onl
BackgroundNearly 10% of the global population living with dementia resides in South Asia, a region of over two billion people with limited diagnostic and care resources. Clinicians require accessible, flexible, and contextually relevant training to improve dementia care in frontline settings.AimTo develop, pilot, and implement a multi-modal, interactive, hybrid training program to improve clinicia
Galectins are implicated in a large variety of biological functions, many of which depend on their carbohydrate-binding ability. Fifteen members of the family have been identified in vertebrates based on binding to galactose (Gal) that is mediated by one or two, evolutionarily conserved, carbohydrate-recognition domains (CRDs). Variations in glycan structures expressed on glycoconjugates at the ce
Different functions for the programming of the cross flow in asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation were studied with the aim to find the flow conditions most suitable for the molar mass distribution analysis of high molecular weight polysaccharides. A mixture of four differently sized pullulans covering the molar mass range 5.8 x 10(3)-1.6 x 106 g mol(-1) were used as a model sample. Two type
The effect of the dominant RN− allele on rigor development, ageing and tenderness was studied in M. longissimus dorsi (LD) from 11 heterozygous carriers and five non-carriers of the RN− allele. Rigor development was followed by measurements of muscle shortening, isometric tension, pH and FOP. During ageing the myofibrillar length and Warner–Bratzler shear force were measured in the meat. Sensory a
Current neuroimaging and neurophysiologic techniques have substantially increased our possibilities to study processes related to various language functions in the intact human brain. Learning to read and write influences the functional organization of the brain. What is universal and what is specific in the languages of the world are important issues. Most studies on healthy bilinguals indicate t
Earlier work has derived the storage complexity of the bounded distance decoder (BDD) for binary-channel convolutional codes. We extend this work to the Gaussian noise channel and to partial-response codes. We show that the storage requirement similar to(2(1-R) - 1)(-t) paths for rate-R convolutional codes over the binary channel becomes similar to2(2Rt) over the Gaussian channel, where the decode
An approach to teaching calorimetry is offered through practical, versatile undergraduate experiments using an isothermal heat conduction calorimeter, which measures a variety of heat changes--enthalpies of phase changes, hydration, dissolution, adsorption and desorption, and reaction--as well as the metabolic rate of living organisms. Isothermal heat-conduction calorimetry is contrasted with adia
Agriculture in many African countries is characterised by large diversity in production and great variation in growing conditions, irrigation potential and access to markets. This variation has proved to be a difficult matter when adjusting national agricultural policies and development projects to local conditions. In the face of the recent trend of less support for agricultural extension servic
