Objective: Failure to rescue (FTR), defined as mortality due to failure in responding to in-hospital complications, is an important quality indicator. This study aimed to assess incidence and predictors for FTR among centers performing fenestrated-branched endovascular aortic repair (FB-EVAR) of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAA). Methods: Consecutive patients treated by FB-EVAR for TAAAs be

Agri-food systems globally experience growing difficulties associated with losses after harvesting, irregular quality, and inefficient utilization of resources, particularly within fruit supply chain (FSC). Given the complicated structure in FSCs, it is critical to guarantee quality at all levels to sustain customer satisfaction and optimize the utilization of resources. Conventional inspections a

BackgroundTo enable immunotherapy for ovarian cancers, precision targets for immune priming as well as patient stratification approaches are required. The tumor microenvironment in particularly the rare subtypes of low-grade serous, mucinous, clear cell and endometrioid ovarian cancer, remains poorly characterized, and these tumors have been largely ignored in the immuno-oncology setting.MethodsWe

Background: The Indian food industry is undergoing a significant shift towards sustainability, driven by emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI). This study aims to explore the role of AI in promoting sustainable food processing in India, based on data collected from 110 businesses. Methods: Three hypotheses were developed and analyzed to assess the adoption of AI for sustainabi

The high-luminosity phase of LHC operations (HL-LHC), will feature a large increase in simultaneous proton-proton interactions per bunch crossing up to 200, compared with a typical leveling target of 64 in Run 3. Such an increase will create a very challenging environment in which to perform charged particle trajectory reconstruction, a task crucial for the success of the ATLAS physics program, an

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a prevalent and morbid abnormality of the heart rhythm with a strong genetic component. Here, we meta-analyzed genome and exome sequencing data from 36 studies that included 52,416 AF cases and 277,762 controls. In burden tests of rare coding variation, we identified novel associations between AF and the genes MYBPC3, LMNA, PKP2, FAM189A2 and KDM5B. We further identifie

Foodomics tools are ameliorating the compositional and quality analysis part of various domains of food products. The use of proteomics in the polymorphic product investigation of beta-casein (β-Cn) is intriguing because of the fast and reliable results from the accurate mass spectrometry. This study delineates the LC-MS/MS-based sequential analysis of gel fractionated β-Cn of eighteen Holstein Fr

The current novel study aims was to development and characterization of gum based (guar gum: almond gum) composite formulations with or without addition of oregano essential oils to extend the shelf life of okra at ambient condition. In this study, the optimized composite of guar gum: almond gum (75:25 V/V) prepared with addition of different concentrations (0.05, 0.1 and 0.15 % (V/V) of oregano e

This paper explores animal husbandry practices in the South Scandinavian Neolithic (c. 4000–1700 cal. BCE) and Bronze Age (c. 1700–500 cal. BCE) through a meta-analysis of 86 zooarchaeological assemblages from the Malmö region in southwestern Sweden. Quantitative data based on the number of identified specimens (NISP) have been compiled and are discussed against other lines of archaeological evide

We examine whether culturally transmitted time and risk preferences help explain differences in preventive health care uptake. We combine individual-level survey data from 27 European countries with country-level preference measures from the Global Preferences Survey. To isolate cultural influences from institutional and economic confounders, we focus on second-generation immigrants, who were born

The agri-food sector is an endless source of expansion for nourishing a vast population, but there is a considerable need to develop high-standard procedures through intelligent and innovative technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and big data. This paper addresses the research concerning AI and big data analytics in the food industry, including machine learning, artificial neural net

We estimate the effects of exposure to income and wealth inequality during adolescence on long-term educational and labor market outcomes. Using detailed Swedish register data covering all students completing compulsory education between 1989 and 2013, we construct measures of inequality among students’ school-cohort peers and exploit variation between cohorts within schools to identify causal eff

The envisioning of a Scandinavian Theme Park to be located outside Malmö, close to the anchor of the bridge to Copenhagen, is here discussed in relation to the culture and heritage that was represented in the design proposals. The public presentations of the project were directed by a small group of visionaries who were given space and economic support by the political leadership of Malmö City, inThe envisioning of a Scandinavian Theme Park to be located outside Malmö, close to the anchor of the bridge to Copenhagen, is here discussed in relation to the culture and heritage that was represented in the design proposals.

The production cross section of inclusive isolated photons has been measured by the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC in pp collisions at centre-of-momentum energy of s=13 TeV collected during the LHC Run 2 data-taking period. The measurement is performed by combining the measurements of the electromagnetic calorimeter EMCal and the central tracking detectors ITS and TPC, covering a pseudorapidity

TOI-2015 is a known exoplanetary system around an M4 dwarf star, consisting of a transiting sub-Neptune planet in a 3.35-day orbital period, TOI-2015 b, accompanied by a non-transiting companion, TOI-2015 c. High-precision radial-velocity measurements were taken with the MAROON-X spectrograph, and high-precision photometric data were collected, primarily using the SPECULOOS, MUSCAT, TRAPPIST and L

This study investigates the influential challenges that startups face within business incubators, specifically from entrepreneur’s perspective. While incubators provide crucial support for early-stage ventures, startups even within these supportive settings often encounter significant challenges that can hinder their growth and success. The study employed an integrated approach of literature revie
