- This chapter summarises the main methods, models, and guidelines— hereafter named as NORD tools—included in each component of the NORD framework (NUMBERING, OBSERVING, REGULATING, DESIGNING). The chapter provides further details on how to use these tools as well as how practitioners can combine them to deliver health-promoting green spaces.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Given the importance of going outdoors for health and well-being, researchers have developed evidence-based models based on extensive research to enable a comprehensive and time-efficient use of evidence in design, planning, and management. Together, the three evidence-based models—the four zones of contact, the quality evaluation tool, and the triangle of supportive environment—describe crucial zones and environmental qualities of green spaces which support and inspire people in general as well as people with particular needs, to use the outdoors. The aim of this chapter is to present the evidence-based models and to describe a four-step process to guide practitioners on how to use the models in green space development. The evidence-based working process does not replace established practices; rather, it is intended to complement existing practices of municipalities or offices working with green space development. Therefore, even if multiple municipalities use the same models, the results are always unique to each site and context. Based on the work within the NORDGREEN project, we have found that the models are useful for projects in varying scales and contexts, and with varying target groups, to support, inspire, and inform green space design, planning, and management for health and well-being.

Naturlig Etablering : en pilotstudie av en naturbaserad intervention för individer inom Etableringsuppdraget i behov av arbetslivsinriktad rehabilitering
- 2016
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Pilotprojektet Naturlig Etablering består av en naturbaserad intervention där Arbetsförmedlingen, Region Skåne samt Sveriges Lantbruksverksamhet (SLU) samarbetat för att utveckla en modell i syfte att vetenskapligt utvärdera denna. Målgruppen för pilotstudien är individer inom Etableringsuppdraget med psykisk ohälsa i behov av arbetslivsinriktad rehabilitering som är inskrivna på Arbetsförmedlingen i Malmö samt Lund. Pilotprojektet har bedrivits i Alnarps Rehabiliteringsträdgård. Deltagare har valts ut av arbetsförmedlingens rehabiliteringsteam inom Etableringsuppdraget för den naturbaserade interventionen. Under 10 veckor, tre gånger per vecka och ungefär fyra timmar per tillfälle har deltagarna vistats i grupp i trädgården och erbjudits aktiviteter med olika kognitiva och fysiska utmaningar. Sedan etableringsuppdraget startade 2010 har Arbetsförmedlingen arbetat med att ta fram nya metoder och verktyg i samarbete med andra aktörer för att underlätta etableringen av de nyanlända. I denna rapport redovisas framtagen modell Naturlig Etablering. Detta har resulterat i en beskrivning av målgruppen, beskrivning av naturbaserad utredning, genomgång av den naturbaserade interventionsmodellen samt beskrivning av fördjupad samverkan mellan i projektet ingående myndigheter.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Between May and November, 2022, global outbreaks of human monkeypox virus infection have been reported in more than 78000 people worldwide, predominantly in men who have sex with men. We describe the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of monkeypox virus infection in cisgender (cis) and transgender (trans) women and non-binary individuals assigned female sex at birth to improve identification and understanding of risk factors.International collaborators in geographical locations with high numbers of diagnoses of monkeypox virus infection were approached and invited to contribute data on women and non-binary individuals with confirmed monkeypox virus infection. Contributing centres completed deidentified structured case-report spreadsheets, adapted and developed by participating clinicians, to include variables of interest relevant to women and non-binary individuals assigned female at birth. We describe the epidemiology and clinical course observed in the reported infections.Collaborators reported data for a total of 136 individuals with monkeypox virus infection who presented between May 11 and Oct 4, 2022, across 15 countries. Overall median age was 34 years (IQR 28-40; range 19-84). The cohort comprised 62 trans women, 69 cis women, and five non-binary individuals (who were, because of small numbers, grouped with cis women to form a category of people assigned female at birth for the purpose of comparison). 121 (89%) of 136 individuals reported sex with men. 37 (27%) of all individuals were living with HIV, with a higher proportion among trans women (31 [50%] of 62) than among cis women and non-binary individuals (six [8%] of 74). Sexual transmission was suspected in 55 (89%) trans women (with the remainder having an unknown route of transmission) and 45 (61%) cis women and non-binary individuals; non-sexual routes of transmission (including household and occupational exposures) were reported only in cis women and non-binary individuals. 25 (34%) of 74 cis women and non-binary individuals submitted to the case series were initially misdiagnosed. Overall, among individuals with available data, rash was described in 124 (93%) of 134 individuals and described as anogenital in 95 (74%) of 129 and as vesiculopustular in 105 (87%) of 121. Median number of lesions was ten (IQR 5-24; range 1-200). Mucosal lesions involving the vagina, anus, or oropharynx or eye occurred in 65 (55%) of 119 individuals with available data. Vaginal and anal sex were associated with lesions at those sites. Monkeypox virus DNA was detected by PCR from vaginal swab samples in all 14 samples tested. 17 (13%) individuals were hospitalised, predominantly for bacterial superinfection of lesions and pain management. 33 (24%) individuals were treated with tecovirimat and six (4%) received post-exposure vaccinations. No deaths were reported.The clinical features of monkeypox in women and non-binary individuals were similar to those described in men, including the presence of anal and genital lesions with prominent mucosal involvement. Anatomically, anogenital lesions were reflective of sexual practices: vulvovaginal lesions predominated in cis women and non-binary individuals and anorectal features predominated in trans women. The prevalence of HIV co-infection in the cohort was high.None.
