Policy Narratives and Empowerment: Implementation of the Swedish National Violence Prevention Program

open access: yesPolicy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As the Narrative Policy Framework (NPF) begins to unpack issues of power and narratives, the main focus has been on power‐over and domination rather than more transformative notions of power‐to and empowerment.

Scents of care: Multispecies relations in Pakistan's heatwave

open access: yesThe Australian Journal of Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how odour, intensified by heat, shapes the sensory aspects of social and multispecies relations in Pakistan. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Kasur's tanneries and Lahore's animal shelters during a period of record‐breaking heat, it analyses how smell structures inclusion and exclusion, mediates encounters with humans

Locomotor muscle dysfunction and rehabilitative exercise training in fibrotic interstitial lung disease: Where are we at and where could we go?

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise limitation is a cardinal feature of fibrotic interstitial lung disease arising from pulmonary gas exchange, respiratory mechanical and cardio‐circulatory abnormalities. More recently, it has been recognized that impairment in locomotor muscle function (e.g., reduced muscle mass/strength or heightened fatigability) might also play a ...

Neuromuscular fatigability with repeated exercise in hypoxia: From single‐joint paradigms to sprints

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Acute hypobaric or normobaric hypoxic exposure accelerates neuromuscular fatigability during repeated exercise. Indices of peripheral and central fatigue are not different at exhaustion in mild, moderate and severe hypoxia compared with normoxia, but task failure occurs earlier.
