The excavation of a low-temperature kiln structure at an affluent Iron Age regional center, Uppåkra, located in southern Sweden, revealed from archeobotanical samples and its context evidence of malting in the process to make beer. Carbonized germinated hulled barley grain (Hordeum vulgare) was recovered from the kiln structure itself and from the surrounding occupationalsurface.

Fiscal policy plays an important role in alleviating the costs of the crisis. However, recent experiences suggest that the public finances often are unprepared for a crisis. Deficits and debt levels prior to the crisis are commonly too high, limiting the government’s ability to support the economy through the crisis and the recovery phase. In this paper, I argue that theoretical macroeconomic modeMacroeconomic crises are common as well as economically, socially and politically costly.

Background: Cardiac arrest (CA) represents the third leading cause of death worldwide. Among patients resuscitated and admitted to hospital, death and severe neurological sequelae are frequent but difficult to predict. Blood biomarkers offer clinicians the potential to improve prognostication. Previous studies suggest that circulating non-coding RNAs constitute a reservoir of novel biomarkers. The

Aim: To determine the ability of serum glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAp) and tau protein to predict neurological outcome after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Methods: We measured plasma concentrations of GFAp and tau of patients included in the previously published COMACARE trial (NCT02698917) on intensive care unit admission and at 24, 48, and 72 h after OHCA, and compared them to ne

One of the main issues in context of the severe economical changes on the local media market and the measures the media companies are forced to take is how to maintain high quality of news journalism in the local press. There are concerns that the quality of news will decline and content will be commercialized as McManus (1994) describes it as a market-driven journalism when profit becomes the leaThe local media organisations in Sweden have the last years been involved in initiating new model of business (Melesko 2013). They have mainly been based on economical actions, as cut-downs of editorial staff, integration of different pressrooms and expanded co-operation between papers within same media organisations (Nygren 2013). For instance, editorials and cover of culture news has on several

Background and objectives Cognitive and physical difficulties are common in survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA); both survivors and close family members are also at risk of developing mood disorders. In the UK, dedicated follow-up pathways for OHCA survivors and their family are lacking. A cohort of survivors and family members were surveyed regarding their experience of post-discha

The European Resuscitation Council (ERC) and the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) have collaborated to produce these post-resuscitation care guidelines for adults, which are based on the 2020 International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Science with Treatment Recommendations. The topics covered include the post-cardiac arrest syndrome, diagnosis of cause of cardiac a

Research shows that young people within ethnic minorities are subjected to police control more often than others, which seems to have a damaging effect on their trust in the police as well as on their wider sense of belonging. What is less often researched is how these young people deal with being over-policed. This article explores narratives of over-policing from those targeted by the police in Research shows that young people within ethnic minorities are subjected to police control more often than others, which seems to have a damaging effect on their trust in the police as well as on their wider sense of belonging.

There are many different variations in sex characteristics, some of which have implications for how the body goes through puberty. This paper draws from critical disability studies and childhood and youth studies to understand the teenage experiences and aspirations of young people with variations in sex characteristics, focusing particularly on navigating puberty. We undertook a reflexive themati

Current post-carbon transition trajectories are primarily based on a belief in technical solutions wherein considerations of the citizens’ role in collective mobilisation and transformation are largely overlooked. To this end, the thesis seeks to understand how citizens can become active agents of change within transition efforts and how their political agency can be empowered accordingly. This, b

Methods for identification and valuation of Ecosystem Services (ES) have been developed and applied worldwide in purpose to better consider nature in land planning decisions. In Sweden each municipality has a spatial planning monopoly and with that comes differences in prerequisites for sustainable land and water usage within the country. A growing number of actors are offering ES-analyses as a pu

Renewable energy pursuit and implementation are undoubtedly one of the most important steps in sustainable development across the globe. So far there are several developed high-income countries in the world, that have replaced their fossil fuel-powered electricity systems for renewable energy technologies, however, most of the world still relies on non-renewable energy sources. This research will

Civic engagement plays an important role in governmental transparency – so how does transparency work in a non-democracy like China where the political and juridical systems repress public participation? Through quantitative methods this paper examines how a selection of citizens in Shanghai, China, make use of environmental information made available through the Chinese government’s Open Environm

In 1997 the UK government launched the Sure Start early year’s intervention scheme, offering early years education, health services, adult employment advice and free or highly subsidised child care located in one convenient service available to the most deprived areas. The aim was to improve the life chances of the most disadvantaged children, but also to increase employment for mothers of young c

The aim of this paper is to discuss and analyze three cases of local parties, often referred to as independent local lists, in Sweden. More specifically the case study consists of three cases of urban local parties which can be described as local parties in municipalities with a bigger than average population. The study contributes to the research by exclusively focusing on urban local parties whi
