Contributing factors for participation and independence in children and youths with disabilities.

Background: Disabilities can hinder children's and youths' participation (frequency of attendance and engagement) and independence in everyday life.

Aims: To identify factors that predict levels of participation and independence in everyday activities in Swedish children and youths with disabilities.

Material And Methods: This cross-sectional study, including 131 participants, utilised instruments about child and environmental factors.

Determination of the source location of anthropogenic radionuclides collected in Finland and Sweden in June 2020 using a multi-technology analysis.

In June 2020, observations of anthropogenic radionuclides in Estonia, Finland, and Sweden that were not related to any acknowledged environmental release led to a comprehensive investigation on the source and cause of the unusual emissions. Several of the observed radionuclides were on the list of Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT) relevant radionuclides as an indicator of a potential nuclear test, and warranted detailed investigation. While analysis of aerosol samples coupled with Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion Modelling (ATDM) is a standard approach for environmental particulate releases, several new techniques were employed to better characterize the samples that allowed for useful inferences to be made.

Factor structure of FUNDES-Child-SE measuring the participation and independence of children with disabilities.

Background: FUNDES-Child-SE is a proxy rating questionnaire for measuring participation and independence in children with disabilities in a Swedish context. It includes the components of frequency of attendance, engagement and independence. The original, Taiwanese FUNDES-Child 7.

Patient reported long-term side effects from treatment on urinary and sexual function in anal cancer survivors - 3- and 6-year results from the Swedish national ANCA study.

Aim: The standard treatment for anal cancer is chemoradiotherapy. Most patients survive anal cancer but remain living with long-term side effects related to the treatment received. The aim of this study was to assess the occurrence of long-term impairment of urinary and sexual function at 3 and 6 years after diagnosis and to investigate the additive effect from chemotherapy in combined chemoradiotherapy on urinary incontinence, compared to radiotherapy alone.

Ultralight aerogels supramolecular polymerization of a new chiral perfluoropyridine-based sulfonimidamide organogelator.

Chiral and enantiopure perfluorinated sulfonimidamides act as low-molecular weight gelators at low critical gelation concentration (<1 mg mL) supramolecular polymerization in nonpolar organic solvents and more heterogenic mixtures, such as biodiesel and oil. Freeze-drying of the organogel leads to ultralight aerogel with extremely low density (1 mg mL). The gelation is driven by hydrogen bonding resulting in a helical molecular ordering and unique fibre assemblies as confirmed by scanning electron microscopy, CD spectroscopy, and computational modeling of the supramolecular structure.
