To ensure energy to meet needs for economic growth and sustainable development more emphasis should be given to energy efficiency, renewable energy and new technologies for both energy end-use and supply. One key technology is gasification of coal to produce liquid and gaseous fuels, and electricity. The overall conclusion is that there are plausible energy-technology strategies, well within reach
Encounters between patients in homecare and nursing students are cultural events where students, in principle, are in unknown territory. This study illuminated how nursing students recount (inter)actions in social relations in Danish homecare settings, illustrated by students with a self-appointed immigrant background. The study consisted of semi-structured interviews with eight nursing students.
A series of experiments are carried out to exam the effect of multiple-contact miscibility on drainage using a rock-on-a-chip. The result shows the distinct behaviors depending on the composition and injection flow rate. The observations are compared with the classical parameter regime diagram for drainage displacement of R. Lenormand et al[1].
Background: Nausea and vomiting in pregnancy (NVP) affects 50–80% of pregnant women and is correlated to the level of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) is a severe condition, with an incidence of 0.2–1.5%, characterized by consistent nausea, vomiting, weight loss and dehydration continuing after the second trimester. Aim: The aim of this systematic review was to inves
Background Exertional breathlessness is a limiting symptom that often coexists with anxiety and depression. We tested the hypothesis that anxiety and depression negatively impact exertional breathlessness in daily life and during standardised cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET). Methods Analysis of people aged ⩾40 years undergoing incremental cycle CPET. Exertional breathlessness in daily life
Background: Breathlessness on exertion is a common, distressing, and limiting symptom that can be quantified on incremental cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) using normative reference equations. Research Question: Is the breathlessness abnormality best uncovered and assessed at symptom limitation (peak exercise) compared with submaximal exercise intensities? Study Design and Methods: This wa
This article explores the use of sustainability criteria for biomass as a tool to promote and safeguard sustainability of this product. Much attention is paid to the issues that sustainability criteria for biomass should consider. Among them the priority for food supply and food security, the emission reduction of green house gases (GHG) through the whole production chain, the preservation of area
This chapter presents a simulation model for the optimization of a reservoir system that is being developed. Simulation studies were carried out, firstly to determine the best (and by how much) irrigation facilities to provide in the proposed new scheme, and secondly, to see the applicability of simulation in reservoir planning. A computer simulation model using MATLAB has been developed to analyz
After several years of broad support for the European Green Deal (EGD), a significant number of communities and politicians are calling on the EU and Member States to slow down its green measures and focus on ‘other’ crises, most notably the cost-of-living crisis.This White Paper argues that environmental, social and economic crises can’t be looked at in isolation. And that addressing today’s ‘pol
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vad arbetar en analytisk kemist med? Exempel på kemiska analyser är att en idrottsman ska dopingtestas eller att eventuella föroreningar i vattnet från en bäck ska bestämmas. Den analytiska kemistens problemställning är vanligtvis att identifiera (kvalitativ analys) och mäta upp (kvantitativ analys) innehållet i ett prov. Ofta är de intressanta ämneshalterna mycket lågaCapillary electrophoresis is characterised by high separation efficiency, applicability to a wide range of compounds, small sample and solvent consumption and simple instrumentation. To improve sensitivity using on-line absorbance detectors, which are hampered by the short optical path length, sample volumes in the microlitre range were concentrated to nanolitre volumes either off-line or on-line.
I denna artikel analyseras muntligt gestaltade erfarenheter hos 27 överlevande efter kriget i nordvästra Bosnien under 1990-talet. Syftet är att dels beskriva hur de intervjuade framställer det sociala fenomenet «offerskap», dels analysera diskursiva mönster som medverkar i konstruktionen av kategorin «offer». Aktörernas anspråk på statusen «offer» skapar en konkurrens om offerrollen efter kriget.The aim of this article is to analyse verbally portrayed experiences of 27 survivors of the 1990’s war in northwestern Bosnia. My focus is on describing how the interviewees portray the social phenomenon of «victimhood» and on analysing the discursive patterns that contribute to construction of the category «victim». When, after the war, different actors claim this «victim» status, it sparks a com
The article presents an analysis of boundary work within the context of care for the elderly, where violence appears to be widespread though still relatively unacknowledged. By resorting to certain descriptive – often jocular – modes, the staff designate aggressive acts committed by patients as 'non-violent'. This occurs although intent, responsibility, and injury – all common criteria associated

Wilms' tumor gene 1 (WT1) is a transcription factor involved in developmental processes. In adult hematopoiesis, only a small portion of early progenitor cells express WT1, whereas most leukemias show persistently high levels, suggesting an oncogenic role. We have previously characterized oncogenic BCR/ABL1 tyrosine kinase signaling pathways for increased WT1 expression. In this study, we show tha
Introduction: Wearable sensors measuring bodily movements used in free-living conditions may help predict falls in older persons. Assessing their use in this context is essential to identify potential challenges related to fall risk screening. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the feasibility of conducting a prospective study comparing self-rated and wearable sensor-based measures for the asse
In recent years the concern about the future of the European Union and its supposed lack of democracy, efficiency and legitimacy has increased. This concern has resulted in extensive debates and the establishment of a convention with the task to create a draft treaty for a European Constitution. The aim of this essay is to study how the three theoretical concepts, democracy, efficiency and le
