Work and working conditions are fundamental social determinants of health. Climate change poses an urgent and growing threat to workers' health, through both direct exposure to environmental hazards and indirect exacerbation of social and health inequalities. Occupational health, which focusses on the promotion of mental and physical health and well-being of workers, is a key but often overlooked
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a health burden that lacks specific and early diagnostic biomarkers. For their discovery, we sequenced urinary extracellular vesicle miRNAs in a type 1 diabetes cohort of males with and without DKD. The results were replicated by sequencing or qPCR in two independent cohorts and six published datasets, including type 1 and 2 diabetes, and both sexes. We also valida
Jorunn Joiner and Mari Komnæs also employ digital tools, albeit other ones, to shed light on the interaction between narratives of exceptionalism, travel, and place. In ‘Mapping Nordic Exceptionalism with GIS: The Odin Migration Theory and the Search for a Northern Heritage’, they use digital mapping tools to visualise the journeys of two travellers from different centuries in their search for a N
The question of the legal permissibility of heritable gene editing techniques is unsettled. The international consensus opposes clinical research and applications involving germline modifications. Building on previous work, this paper examines how international human rights law, particularly human right to science standards, can inform the regulation of this controversial advancement. We present t
Abstract: Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) offers critical insights into tissue microstructure through the assessment of water molecule random displacements and plays a central role in the assessment of neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases. To successfully implement and use DWI in clinical practice, guidelines for acquisition, interpretation of image contrast and of artefacts should be followed,
Robotic systems often face execution failures due to unexpected obstacles, sensor errors, or environmental changes. Traditional failure recovery methods rely on predefined strategies or human intervention, making them less adaptable. This paper presents a unified failure recovery framework that combines Vision-Language Models (VLMs), a reactive planner, and Behavior Trees (BTs) to enable real-time

Purpose: The Workplace Dialogue is a digitalized method directed at managers. The purpose of this study was to explore managers’ experiences of using the digital Workplace Dialogue in cases of employee ill-health. Design/methodology/approach: The Workplace Dialogue provides an easy and accessible method for managers, including text, short films, client examples and concrete guides that provides su

This study presents an approach of inventory, morphometric analysis, and geoconservation assessment of the exceptional denudation landforms of the Markovi Kuli geosite in North Macedonia. By integrating Digital Elevation Models (DEM) and orthophoto imagery processed from the UAV-based aerial photos of the area using Agisoft Metashape software, a high-resolution 0.1 m 3D model is produced. The mode
In an accompanying paper (Am. J. Epidemiol. 2002;155:1066-73), the authors describe the design of a large multicenter study being carried out in three West African countries for investigation of the roles of environmental and host-related factors in the development of tuberculosis. In this paper, the authors review some evidence that host genetic factors play a role in susceptibility to tuberculos
Background- This nationwide study sought to determine age- and gender-specific familial risks in siblings hospitalized for venous thromboembolism (VTE). Methods and Results- The Swedish Multigeneration Register on 0- to 75-year-old subjects was linked to the Hospital Discharge Register for the years 1987-2007. Standardized incidence ratios were calculated for individuals whose siblings were hospit
The sub-cell-fix (SCF) method proposed by Russo and Smereka(3) computes the distance function of the cells adjacent to the zero level-set without disturbing the original zero level-set. A modified sub-cell-fix scheme independent of local curvature is developed in this paper, which makes use of a combination of the points adjacent to zero level-set surfaces and preserves the interface in a second-o
Small arteries are known to develop functional and structural alterations in hypertension. However, the mechanisms of this remodeling are not fully understood. We hypothesized that altered gene expression is associated with the development of hypertension in mesenteric arteries of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Three sublines of SHR and normotensive Wistar Kyoto rats (WKY) were studied at
This paper presents a structured methodology for the constrained multi-objective optimization (MO) of a continuous cross-flow atomic layer deposition (ALD) reactor model with temporal precursor pulsing. The process model has been elaborated and experimentally validated in the first two papers of this series (33 and 34). A general constrained MO problem (MOP) was formulated to simultaneously optimi
The work presented here is based on two papers, both pertaining to perturbation-based control strategies in industrial fed-batch fermentation processes. The first paper describes a new control strategy for avoiding overflow metabolism in the exponential growth phase of a fermentation, based on analysis of the frequency spectrum of the dissolved oxygen measurement following a periodic perturbation
