Veksten i Sametingets valgmanntall har på kort tid endret tyngdepunktet fra nord til sør og fra bygd til by. Dette bidrar til å åpne rommet for hva «samiskhet» innebærer, noe som forsterker både veksten og endringene av valgmanntallet. Denne utviklingen gjør at valgmanntallet kommer i stadig større ulikevekt med den nye samepolitikken hvor urfolksrettigheter til land og ressurser i kjerneområdene ...

Inflammatory musculoskeletal (MSK) diseases are common among children and adolescents, with early diagnosis and treatment crucial for long-term outcomes. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become a key tool in guiding treatment due to the challenges of clinical assessment of disease activity. However, there is a lack of validated, child-specific MRI tools for monitoring these diseases. This ...

This paper presents research on the changes in the properties of cement-bonded particleboard modified with particulate mixture (PM). PM replaced 4% of the binder (cement) and 4% of the filler (spruce chips). The cement-bonded particleboards were tested for physical (bulk density, swelling, linear expansion due to relative humidity changes) and mechanical properties (modulus of rupture and modulus ...

The manuscript examines a decade of internationalisation efforts at the Department of Health and Care Sciences at UiT The Arctic University of Norway. Employing a mixed-methods approach, it analyses student mobility, research collaborations, and international partnerships, offering strategic recommendations to enhance global educational practices. The findings provide valuable insights into international ...

This study investigates the impact of high-energy milling on foamed concrete, which is crucial for its lightweight and insulating properties. The research uses a two-rotor disintegrator for milling cement, sand, and microsilica to evaluate the mechanical properties of foamed concrete produced with a high-speed homogenizer in a novel two-stage process. Comparisons are made between non-milled, ...

Cardiac arrest registries can benchmark, enhance quality of care and provide data for research. Key stakeholders from Emergency Medical Communication Centre (EMCC), Emergency Medical Services (EMS), In-Hospital Care Providers (IHCP) and Recovery and Rehabilitation Providers (RRP) have different perspectives, and registry results and patient cohorts should be tailored to facilitate benchmarking, ...

Introduction: This second part of the S2k guidelines is an update of the 2015 S1 European guidelines.<p> <p>Objective: These guidelines aim to provide an accepted decision aid for the selection, implementation and assessment of appropriate and sufficient therapy for patients with hidradenitis suppurativa/acne inversa (HS). <p>Methods: The chapters have been selected after a Delphi procedure among ...

While the basic facts of Elise Hall’s life and career are known to many saxophonists, they are less well known to a broader public (for example, she is not mentioned in Oxford Music Online, and at the time of writing her Wikipedia entry in English consists of three lines and the names of five men). Additionally, she is primarily considered in reference to the (male) composers of the early twentieth ...

The youngest volcanic event known from Svalbard is represented by the Bockfjorden Volcanic Complex, located northwest on Spitsbergen at the passive continental margin. Mantle-derived xenoliths from Bockfjorden Volcanic Complex provide petrological insight to the mantle conditions beneath Svalbard, the northwestern extremity of the Eurasian lithospheric plate. New methods are available for pressure ...
