Along with the rapid development of investment and trade in the context of economic globalisation, a number of legal issues, risks and disputes related to the essential security exception have gradually emerged in the field of international investment. Although contracting states have consciously agreed on essential security exception regulations in the international investment system, the provisi
Introduction: Assessing suicide risk in clinical settings is challenging, as conventional self-report scales have limited predictive validity. The Death Implicit Association Test (D-IAT) was developed to explore implicit associations related to death and the self-concept. However, it omits the emotional association with death that may be crucial in suicide risk assessment. This cross-sectional stu
Background: Physiologically guided revascularization improves clinical outcomes. The cutoff values for deferral with fractional flow reserve (FFR) and instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) are the same across all coronary arteries, despite differences in coronary flow patterns. The objective was to compare deferral rates using either FFR or iFR in the right coronary artery (RCA), left anterior desce
Background: Previous studies suggest an antidepressant effect of omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs). This effect may be larger in patients with low-grade inflammation, defined as mild elevations of high sensitivity C-reactive protein or other commonly used inflammatory markers. The antidepressant mechanisms of n-3 PUFAs are not fully understood but may involve modulation of immunometabolic processes
The Value of Information from Bayesian decision theory can be used to drive decisions within the development of new technologies aiding research screening, technology characteristics, and employment optimization. The selection of a specific application of technology leads to the definition of the decision scenario within the Value of Information framework. Technological performance characteristics
We have used approximately 40 fs pulses from a Ti:sapphire laser to investigate the ultrafast energy transfer and relaxation dynamics in the light-harvesting pigment-proteins of photosynthetic purple bacteria. Our results reveal two new features, not earlier observed in light-harvesting pigments: (1) ultrafast relaxation characterized by a time constant of approximately 20 fs, which we interpret a
Background: Many traumatic brain injury (TBI) treatment protocols, including the Lund concept, advocate the highest point of the subarachnoid space (typically the vertex) as the zero-reference point for intracranial pressure (ICP) and the level of the right atrium as the zero-reference point for mean arterial blood pressure (MAP). In 2017, at the Department of Neurosurgery in Lund, Sweden, the zer
Meta-analyses are vital for synthesizing evidence in medical research, but conflicts of interest can introduce research bias, undermining the reliability of the synthesized findings. This paper proposes a new robust Bayesian meta-analysis model. The model inflates uncertainty of low-quality studies and incorporates a bias term for studies subject to conflicts of interest. Using a random-effects mo
Early recognition and management of sports-related concussion (SRC), including removal from the sports activity, is essential for player safety and to prevent long-term symptoms. A graduated, stepwise rehabilitation protocol is implemented to allow the athlete to return to sports. In 2022, the 6th international consensus statement on concussion in sports was presented, which has now been adapted t
Jämförelse mellan de nordiska ländernas arbetsmarknadsmodeller och analys av vad som är gemensamt och hur detta påverkar skillnader i facklig organisationsgrad och hur denna utvecklats.
Swedish tragedies from the first half of the eighteenth century often looked at French drama, but there are notable instances where inspiration seems to have come from elsewhere: Erik Wrangel’s Torilla (1738), for example, breaks conventions expected of French theatre by letting princes battle supernatural forces on stage; the story presented in Eric Brander’s Cleopatra (1749) seems familiar from
The sheet metal forming process is integral to the automotive industry, producing a variety of components essential for vehicle construction, including body panels, chassis parts, and structural supports. The process involves shaping thin metal sheets into desired forms using techniques such as bending, stretching, drawing, and stamping. In order to build high quality cars it is vital with an effi
A search for excited electron (e*) production is described in which the electroweak decays e* --> egamma, e* --> eZ and e* ---> nuW are considered. The data used correspond to an integrated luminosity of 120 pb(-1) taken in e(+/-)p collisions from 1994 to 2000 with the H1 detector at HERA at centre-of-mass energies of 300 and 318 GeV. No evidence for a signal is found. Mass dependent exclusion lim
This report considers improvements in Swedish Rescue Service Agency’s obser- vation activity on occurred accidents. A model is constructed to develop the work for observers and decisions-makers.
