The Implementation Process Assessment Tool: translation, contextualization, and psychometric evaluation of a Swedish version in a municipal elderly care context.

Background: The number of older adults with complex healthcare needs is growing alongside limited resources available in health services. To meet this challenge, it is urgent that healthcare staff are motivated and able to continuously translate new knowledge and working methods into daily practice. To facilitate such implementation, supportive measures responding to the healthcare personnel's needs seem essential.

Cardiovascular Response and Locomotor Demands of Elite Basketball Referees During International Tournament: A Within- and Between-Referee Analysis.

There is little knowledge about within- and between-referee variation (WBRV) in cardiovascular responses (CVR) and locomotor game demands (LMD). Thus, the primary aim of this study was to assess the WBRV of CVR and LMD in male basketball referees during elite international games in preparation [e.g.

Promoting Mental Health and Well-Being Among Adolescent Young Carers in Europe: A Cross-National Randomized Controlled Trial Study.

Background/objectives: This cross-national study focuses on adolescents who provide care and support to family members or significant others. Current evidence regarding their mental health and solutions to strengthen it is limited and mostly available in a few countries. The aim of this study is to evaluate the results of a primary prevention intervention for improving the mental health and well-being of adolescent young carers (AYCs) aged 15-17 years in six European countries.

Beyond IC50-A computational dynamic model of drug resistance in enzyme inhibition treatment.

Resistance to therapy is a major clinical obstacle to treatment of cancer and communicable diseases. Drug selection in treatment of patients where the disease is showing resistance to therapy is often guided by IC50 or fold-IC50 values. In this work, through a model of the treatment of chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML), we contest using fold-IC50 values as a guide for treatment selection.

Photo-supported conversations about well-being (BeWell) for patients with exhaustion disorders - a controlled clinical intervention study.

Introduction: Health-promotion approaches to address stress-related exhaustion disorders, reduce personal suffering, improve coping and participation in everyday life are needed in primary care. The aim of this study was to investigate self-reported health and well-being before and after an intervention focusing on well-being with photo-supported conversations (BeWell).

Material And Methods: Eighty-one patients (69 women), 20-67 years old, with exhaustion disorders were recruited at Swedish primary health care centres (PHCC) to a controlled clinical study.

Toward the bioleaching of bauxite residue by Gluconobacter oxydans.

Aim: This project evaluated a biologically mediated strategy to solubilize several rare earth elements and critical raw materials, including scandium, from bauxite residue. This work seeks to expand on previous research on contact leaching with bauxite.

Methods And Results: In this study, Gluconobacter oxydans was shown to secrete mixed organic acids, including gluconic acid, which was superior to pure gluconic acid in the dissolution of bauxite residue, even at low molarities.

Internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia comorbid with chronic benign pain - A randomized controlled trial.

Background: Comorbid sleep disturbances are common among individuals with chronic pain, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-i) has proven effective for such individuals. Nonetheless, research on web-based CBT-i tailored for patients with both chronic pain and insomnia is limited. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of internet-based CBT-i and to explore potential mechanisms underlying treatment outcomes.

Patient involvement in interdisciplinary bedside rounds from nursing and medical students' perceptions. A Swedish qualitative interview study.

Background: Patient involvement in the interdisciplinary bedside round (IBR) increases care quality and safety but is influenced and perceived differently by different round participants. Nursing and medical students are still not structurally embedded in the healthcare system, and they participate in interdisciplinary bedside rounds for educational purposes. Thus, the students may give a valuable perspective on patient involvement from the 'outside view'.

Frankia [NiFe] uptake hydrogenases and genome reduction: different lineages of loss.

Uptake hydrogenase (Hup) recycles H2 formed by nitrogenase during nitrogen fixation, thereby preserving energy. Among root nodule bacteria, most rhizobial strains examined are Hup-, while only one Hup-  Frankia inoculum had been identified. Previous analyses had led to the identification of two different [NiFe] hydrogenase syntons.

Evidence for inbreeding depression in captive Damaraland mole-rats.

Mating between closely related individuals can result in a reduction in offspring fitness, known as inbreeding depression. Here, we investigate whether breeding with close relatives affects the reproductive output of parents and the development of their offspring in Damaraland mole-rats (), a cooperatively breeding species where females avoid mating with familiar individuals. By cross-fostering litters of pups soon after birth, we were able to form breeding pairs from full siblings that were reared apart.

Kin recognition for incest avoidance in Damaraland mole-rats, .

Across taxa, breeding among close relatives is usually avoided because it incurs fitness costs to offspring. Incest is often averted through the dispersal of either sex from the natal area to breed. In some philopatric species, association among relatives extends into adulthood, and an ability to discriminate kin may be required for individuals to reduce inbreeding risk.

Antimicrobial Potency of Nor-Pyochelin Analogues and Their Cation Complexes against Multidrug-Resistant Pathogens.

The opportunistic pathogen develops increasing resistance toward even the most potent antibiotics. Like other bacteria, the pathogen produces a number of virulence factors including metallophores, which constitute an important group. Pseudomonads produce the iron-chelating metallophore (siderophore) pyochelin, which, in addition to its iron-scavenging ability, is an effector for the transcriptional regulator PchR in its Fe-bound form (ferripyochelin).

Cocreation of a Video Feedback Tool for Managing Self-Care at Home With Pairs of Older Adults: Remote Experience-Based Co-Design Study.

Background: Involving older adults in co-design processes is essential in developing digital technologies and health care solutions to enhance self-care management at home, especially for older adults with chronic illness and their companions. Remote co-design approaches could provide technologically sustainable solutions that address their personal needs.

Objective: This study aimed to cocreate and test the usability of a video feedback tool to facilitate self-care management at home.

How social workers are positioned and constructed as contributors within national palliative care policies in Sweden: a policy analysis.

Background: Palliative care is expected to acknowledge physical, psychological, emotional, spiritual, and social needs, to which social workers can contribute with expertise on recognizing the importance of social relations and how social inequalities impact on individuals. The social work profession faces challenges in claiming their contributions in the hierarchies of medical professions. Polices play an important role in constructing and positioning responsibilities of professions.

The Implications of Atlantic Salmon ( L.) Fatty Acid Profiles for Their Thiamine Status.

Thiamine deficiency is an ongoing issue across the Northern Hemisphere, causing reproductive failure in multiple salmonid populations. In the Baltic Sea, a large brackish water system in northern Europe, previous research has suggested that this deficiency is associated with lipid-rich diets with a high proportion of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3). The mechanism proposed is that a diet abundant in highly unsaturated fatty acids, such as DHA, depletes thiamine as an antioxidant defense in adult salmonids, rather than allocating thiamine to the offspring.

Quantum Approach for Contextual Search, Retrieval, and Ranking of Classical Information.

Quantum-inspired algorithms represent an important direction in modern software information technologies that use heuristic methods and approaches of quantum science. This work presents a quantum approach for document search, retrieval, and ranking based on the Bell-like test, which is well-known in quantum physics. We propose quantum probability theory in the hyperspace analog to language (HAL) framework exploiting a Hilbert space for word and document vector specification.

Surface microlayer-mediated virome dissemination in the Central Arctic.

Background: Aquatic viruses act as key players in shaping microbial communities. In polar environments, they face significant challenges such as limited host availability and harsh conditions. However, due to the restricted accessibility of these ecosystems, our understanding of viral diversity, abundance, adaptations, and host interactions remains limited.

Ultradian rhythms of activity in a wild subterranean rodent.

Many animals adapt their activity patterns to the best environmental conditions using daily rhythms. African mole-rats are among the mammals that have become models for studying how these rhythms can be entrained by light or temperature in experimental laboratory studies. However, it is unclear whether they exhibit similar circadian rhythms in their natural lightless, subterranean environment.

Universal dynamical function behind all genetic codes: P-adic attractor dynamical model.

The genetic code is a map which gives the correspondence between codons in DNA and amino acids. In the attractor dynamical model (ADM), genetic codes can be described as the sets of the cyclic attractors of discrete dynamical systems - the iterations of functions acting in the ring of 2-adic integers Z. This ring arises from representation of nucleotides by binary vectors and hence codons by triples of binary vectors.

Seasonal nitrogen removal in an outdoor microalgal polyculture at Nordic conditions.

Microalgal solutions to clean waste streams and produce biomass were evaluated in Nordic conditions during winter, spring, and autumn in Southeast Sweden. The study investigated nitrogen (N) removal, biomass quality, and safety by treating industrial leachate water with a polyculture of local microalgae and bacteria in open raceway ponds, supplied with industrial CO effluent. Total N (TN) removal was higher in spring (1.
