IntroductionNotably, less than two-thirds of under-5 children received full immunization in 2016 in India. It is critical to understand the inequalities in access to immunization for determining an effective health policy agenda to ensure universal health coverage. Hence, we performed a study to assess the determinants of income-based inequality in the full immunization of children aged 12–23 usin

Det är Herrens år 1399. Tyska orden försöker upprätthålla lag och ordning på Gotland strax efter att Kalmarunionen grundats. En man har nyligen hittats hängd i en ödegård norr om Visby. Det visar sig vara en rik borgare från Stockholm. Mördaren har sprättat upp hans mage och slängt trettio silverpenningar på marken under honom en kopia av hur Judas Iskariots död brukar avbildas. Bara några steg fr

The pulp and paper industry is one of the most important industrial sectors worldwide and has great potential to be a cornerstone for the future bioeconomy, especially for lignocellulosic biorefineries. The potential of membrane processes in this transformation is shown in three examples from the fields of Kraft / Sulphate, Sulphite and thermomechanical pulping. In addition, the challenges of memb

Wave climate data for the Swedish provinces Skane and Halland, were hindcast using SWAN, a third-generation spectral wave model. The 40-year wave dataset, from 1979 to 2019, is made available through an open-access data portal (https://gis.sgi.se/vagmodell/). The wave data has a three-hour resolution and includes significant wave height, peak wave period, and wave direction. The wave model domain

Introduction: Reverse transcriptase quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) is considered the method of choice for measurable residual disease (MRD) assessment in NPM1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML). MRD can also be determined with DNA-based methods offering certain advantages. We here compared the DNA-based methods quantitative PCR (qPCR), droplet digital PCR (ddPCR), and targeted deep sequencing (deep

Restrictions in empirical research of biological communities have limited our understanding of the combined influence of environmental variability and system structure on community composition. Spatial patterns of community composition in less accessible systems, such as marine benthos, can often not be explained by many factors beyond the direct impact of the environment on community members. We

A co-designed (3+3)-port antenna for dual-band operation that requires no feeding or decoupling network is proposed and verified. The antenna consists of six ports which are divided into two groups that resonate in two differentfrequency ranges. The basic radiating element is a tri-modal patch in a folded snowflake-shaped structure with the largest antenna dimension of 0.48λ1 or 0.68λ2, where λ1 and

Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), a common form of chronic lung allograft dysfunction, is the major limitation to long-term survival after lung transplantation. The histological correlate is progressive, fibrotic occlusion of small airways, obliterative bronchiolitis lesions, ultimately leading to organ failure. The molecular composition of these lesions is unknown. By laser-capture microdi

Beliefs about the moral status of children have changed significantly in recent decades in the Western world. At the same time, knowledge about likely consequences for children of individual, parental, and societal choices has grown, as has the array of choices that (prospective) parents may have at their disposal. The intersection between these beliefs, this new knowledge, and these new choices h

OBJECTIVE: The objective was to examine the association between primary care consultations and a Care Need Index (CNI) used to compensate Swedish primary care practices for the extra workload associated with patients with low socioeconomic status.DESIGN: Observational study combining graphical analysis with linear regressions of cross-sectional administrative practice-level data.SETTING: Three Swe

The emergence of markets for online physician consultations -- direct-to-consumers telemedicine (DCT) -- is transforming healthcare services in many nations. The convenience of DCT lowers the cost of seeking care, thus potentially increasing demand. Yet, it is not known whether patients consuming online care turn to traditional providers as well. This is one of the first studies to causally assess

Leaf area index (LAI) is a key ecological indicator for describing the structure of canopies and for modelling energy exchange between atmosphere and biosphere. While LAI of the forest overstory can be accurately assessed over large spatial scales via remote sensing, LAI of the forest understory (LAIu) is still largely ignored in ecological studies and ecosystem modelling due to the fact that it i
