On laplace–carleson embeddings, and lp-mapping properties of the fourier transform

We investigate so-called Laplace–Carleson embeddings for large exponents. In particular, we extend some results by Jacob, Partington, and Pott. We also discuss some related results for Sobolev-and Besov spaces, and mapping properties of the Fourier transform. These variants of the Hausdorff–Young theorem appear difficult to find in the literature. We conclude the paper with an example related to a

Ny definition av palliativ vård med fokus på lidande

Palliative care was initially developed for patients with a cancer diagnosis and severe symptoms. Despite the ambition to broaden the palliative care approach to include other groups, patients with cancer are still a majority in specialised palliative care. The broader view and development of palliative care has led to an intense debate on existing definitions. Following a request from The Lancet

Resveratrol loaded Pickering emulsions stabilized by OSA modified rice starch granules

Resveratrol is a photosensitive, bioactive molecule which has received increasing research interest during the past decade for its antioxidant properties. However, it has low solubility in water or common triglyceride oils. Resveratrol solubilization in oil can only be achieved in essential oils, such as flavour oils, but the stability of emulsions produced with this type of oils is low as they ar

Assessment of the environmental impacts, energy performance and economic aspects of various construction materials

Increasing CO₂ emission is considered as the main reason for global warming in the world. One of the reasons for producing CO₂ is using of fossil-based materials in the construction projects. This study intends to assess the using bio-based materials instead of fossil-based materials for the thermal insulation layer of the external walls and roofs. Another focus of this project is using green conc

An exploration of occupational choices in adolescence : A constructivist grounded theory study

Background: Adolescence is a critical period within the life course, for developing adult occupational competencies and health behaviours. Few studies have considered how 16–17 year olds choose activities and behaviours from an occupational perspective. Aim and objectives: To explore how adolescents aged 16–17 years old make choices about their daily occupations to inform a theoretical model of oc

The cGMP system in normal and degenerating mouse neuroretina : New proteins with cGMP interaction potential identified by a proteomics approach

The hereditary disease Retinitis pigmentosa results in severe vision loss due to photoreceptor degeneration by unclear mechanisms. In several disease models, the second messenger cGMP accumulates in the degenerating photoreceptors, where it may over-activate specific cGMP-interacting proteins, like cGMP-dependent protein kinase. Moreover, interventions that counteract the activity of these protein

Health-promoting and preventive interventions for community-dwelling older people published from inception to 2019 : a scoping review to guide decision making in a Swedish municipality context

Background: Despite the promising evidence of health-promoting and preventive interventions for maintaining health among older people, not all interventions can be implemented due to limited resources. Due to the variation of content in the interventions and the breadth of outcomes used to evaluate effects in such interventions, comparisons are difficult and the choice of which interventions to im

Possible dual bubble-like structure predicted by the relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov model

Experimental observation of 34Si as a proton bubble nuclei has heated up the interest in the study of exotic bubble shaped nuclei. In this work, some of the potential doubly bubble-like (for proton as well as neutron both simultaneously) cases have been explored using relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov (RHB) in light mass region, specially around N or Z = 14. Further, the role of pairing and the evol

Rasch analysis of the EQ-5D-3L and the EQ-5D-5L in persons with back and neck pain receiving physiotherapy in a primary care context

Aim: The purpose of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the EQ-5D-3L and the EQ-5D-5L in patients with back and neck pain. Materials and methods: Participants from two independent clinical survey studies was included in this study. In total 164 participants were answering either the EQ-5D-3L or the EQ-5D-5L after their visit to a physiotherapist in primary care for back an

Study on Clay Core Replacement with Fiber Reinforced Concrete (Polypropylene) Core In the Rock-fill Dams

This paper is intended to present the results of an experimental investigation upon the possibility of clay core replacement with fiber (polypropylene) reinforced concrete core in rock‐fill dams. Within the rock‐fill dams, usually clayey soil is used as the main core material of the whole structure. Due to the fact that this kind of soil, being used; would have caused many problems such as; a huge

Bariatric surgery prior to total knee arthroplasty is not associated with lower risk of revision : a register-based study of 441 patients

Background and purpose — Obesity is a considerable medical challenge in society. We investigated the risk of revision for any reasons and for infection in patients having total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for osteoarthritis (OA) within 2 years after bariatric surgery (BS) and compared them with TKAs without BS. Patients and methods — We used the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry (SOReg) and the Sw

The effects of tau, amyloid and white matter lesions on mobility, dual tasking and balance in older people

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate whether white matter lesions (WML), β-amyloid- and tau pathologies are independently associated with mobility, dual tasking and dynamic balance performance in older non-demented individuals.METHODS: We included 299 older people (mean, SD, age: 71.8, 5.6 years) from the Swedish BioFINDER study, whereof 175 were cognitively unimpaired and 124 had mild cogn

Red deer allocate vigilance differently in response to spatio-temporal patterns of risk from human hunters and wolves

Ungulate prey can use increased vigilance to reduce their risk of predation, but little is known of the combined and interactive risk effects from humans and wolves in determining ungulate behaviour across time and space. Understanding the interplay between these risk effects is increasingly important, considering the recolonisation of several large carnivores to more human-dominated landscapes in

Artifacts in electrical measurements on wood caused by non-uniform moisture distributions

This paper examines how the moisture conditioning method affects the electrical conductance of wood. A widely used dataset was acquired by Stamm in 1929 who used a method of conditioning where water-saturated wood specimens were partially dried, sealed and left for a period of time for moisture to be redistributed before the electrical conductance was measured. However, more recent measurements co

The combination of clofarabine, etoposide, and cyclophosphamide shows limited efficacy as a bridge to transplant for children with refractory acute leukemia : results of a monitored prospective study

Clofarabine has been shown to effectively induce remission in children with refractory leukemia. We conducted a prospective trial (clinicval.trials.gov NCT01025778) to explore the use of clofarabine-based chemotherapy as a bridge-to-transplant approach. Children with refractory acute leukemia were enrolled to receive two induction courses of clofarabine, etoposide, and cyclophosphamide (CloEC). Re

Realizing a Circular Concrete Industry in Denmark through an Integrated Product, Service and System Perspective

Concrete is the most commonly used material worldwide, often associated with an irreversible production process and waste generation at the end-of-life. As such, the concrete industry holds large untapped potentials for moving towards more circular economy (CE) practices. Product service system (PSS) offerings incentivize CE through extending product use, improving product performance and developi

ARIA digital anamorphosis: Digital transformation of health and care in airway diseases from research to practice

Digital anamorphosis is used to define a distorted image of health and care that may be viewed correctly using digital tools and strategies. MASK digital anamorphosis represents the process used by MASK to develop the digital transformation of health and care in rhinitis. It strengthens the ARIA change management strategy in the prevention and management of airway disease. The MASK strategy is bas

Current-voltage analysis : Lessons learned from hysteresis

Progress in the power conversion efficiency of solar cells based on metal-halide perovskite semiconductors has been astonishing for the past years. During their development, transient effects have been observed that gave rise to an uncertainty associated with the determination of device performance from current density-voltage (J-V) measurements. This effect becomes visible in a dependence of the

Built Environment, Ethics and Everyday Life

In the wake of global crises concerning, for example, inequalities, migration, pandemics, and the environment, ethical concerns have come to the fore. In this thematic issue, we are especially interested in the role that the planning, design, and materialities of the built environment can take in relation to ethics, and we present four different openings or themes into urban ethics that we also th
