The aim of this qualitative study was to investigate the social identity of students at upper secondary school for physically disabled students. The youths I drew my attention to suffered from severe physical disabilities and therefore received specially adapted education in small classes, but integrated at an ordinary upper secondary school. By "social identity" I mean how the students
In this article we take the classic meaning of exemplum as a point of departure to show how examples are marked and used in oral discourse on 'others'. The empirical material is a transcribed focus group interview with Swedish students talking about a trip to Warsaw. Examples may be marked in explicit ways but also in implicit ways. Some examples seem recognizable by their allusive nature, others
Lung cancer (LC) generally lacks unique core symptoms or signs. However, there are a multitude of bodily sensations that are often non-specific, not easily understood, and many times initially not recognized as indicative of LC by the affected person, which often leads to late diagnosis. In this international qualitative study, we inductively analyzed retrospective accounts of 61 people diagnosed

The purpose of this study is to examine how social service handles incorrect information about them that is spreading on social media. This study is based on a qualitative method. In order to achieve the purpose of this work, the focus has been on the unit of child protection services and seven social workers have been interviewed. The study shows that social workers only handle incorrect informat
Exposure to urban air pollution during early pregnancy is associated with increased risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes, such as preeclampsia (PE), and there is an urgent need to understand how air pollution affects biological mechanisms in the placenta. Hofbauer cells (HBCs) are fetal placental macrophages that regulate immune tolerance in the placenta. They are normally polarized towards an anti
Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) remains the standard method for axillary staging in breast cancer. However,for the majority of patients with early breast cancer, it offers no treatment benefit and carries a risk of long-termside effects. In the era of surgical de-escalation, reliable preoperative assessment of axillary lymph node metastasis isessential to avoid overtreatment and support treatmen
Background: Adolescents are increasingly using classical psychedelics, yet little is known about how psychedelics use is related to their mental health. Emerging evidence suggests that adolescents may be more vulnerable to adverse outcomes in relation to psychedelic use compared to adults. This descriptive and exploratory study examined differences between adolescents and adults in reported psyche
Emplacement of the Central Atlantic Magmatic Province (CAMP) is thought to have triggered global environmental changes and the end-Triassic mass extinction (ETE). However, the mechanisms linking volcanism and environmental change are unclear. Here we provide new insight into these linkages by measuring the abundance of both sedimentary five- to six-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and
We demonstrate that exceptional points exist in fully transparent, optically "effectively" biaxial, anisotropic micro-cavities, fabricated using an uniaxial cavity material with its axis inclined to the Bragg mirror growth direction. This is similar to the existence of singular (optic) axes in absorbing biaxial crystals, but the lack of time reversal symmetry is mediated by the mode broadening, i.
Background: Predicting severe preeclampsia with need for intensive care is challenging. To better predict high-risk pregnancies to prevent adverse outcomes such as eclampsia is still an unmet need worldwide. In this study we aimed to develop a prediction model for severe outcomes using routine biomarkers and clinical characteristics. Methods: We used machine learning models based on data from an i
Background: Home oxygen therapy (HOT) improves survival in patients with hypoxaemic chronic respiratory disease. Most patients evaluated for HOT are former or active smokers. Oxygen accelerates combustion and smoking may increase the risk of burn injuries and fire hazards; therefore, it is considered a contraindication for HOT in many countries. However, there is variability in the practices and p
The large-scale mass mobilizations and colossal demonstrations of the last decade have shown that digital and social media platforms, globally, now play significant roles in early formation and further facilitation of activist movements, interested in progressive causes and societal changes. However, the repercussions of the very same events have also clearly shown the shortcomings of mediatized a
