Endotoxin exposure associated with organic dust exposure has been studied in several industries. Coffee cherries that are dried directly after harvest may differ in dust and endotoxin emissions to those that are peeled and washed before drying. The aim of this study was to measure personal total dust and endotoxin levels and to evaluate their determinants of exposure in coffee processing factories
Ett viktigt syfte inom EU är ökad konkurrens på den Europeiska marknaden och för att målet ska uppnås föreslog den Europeiska Kommissionen ett Direktiv som reglerar uppköpserbjudanden vilket skulle bidra till förenklade förvärv av företag på den gemensamma marknaden. Företagsförvärv innebär huvudsakligen att ett företag köper aktier av ett annat företag vilket även ibland kan leda till övertagandeOne of the main purposes in EU is increased competiveness on the European market and to achieve the goal; the European Commission made a proposal of a Directive on Takeover Bids which would facilitate the takeover activity in EU. Takeover activities essentially signify when a company purchases shares in another company which occasionally also leads to a takeover of the control of the target compan
Abstract Dark and light adaptation of pineal photoreceptors was studied in the isolated pineal organ of the rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri. After intracellular recording, the photoreceptors were iontophoretically injected with Lucifer yellow CH or with horseradish peroxidase for morphological characterization. Pineal photoreceptor cells responded to light with a hyperpolarization whose amplitude w
This study conducted the global sensitivity analysis of the APSIM-Oryza rice growth model under eight climate conditions and two CO2 levels using the extended Fourier Amplitude Sensitivity Test method. Two output variables (i.e. total aboveground dry matter WAGT and dry weight of storage organs WSO) and twenty parameters were analyzed. The ±30% and ±50% perturbations of base values were used as th
This study presents a new land cover map for the Upper Paraná River Basin (UPRB-2015), with high spatial resolution (30 m), and a high number of calibration and validation sites. To the new map, 50 Landsat-8 scenes were classified with the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm and their level of agreement was assessed using overall accuracy and Kappa coefficient. The generated map was compared by
BACKGROUND: Niemann-Pick disease type C (NP-C) is a rare neurovisceral disease characterised by progressive neurological degeneration, where the rate of neurological disease progression varies depending on age at neurological onset. We report longitudinal data on functional disease progression and safety observations in patients in the international NPC Registry who received continuous treatment w
STUDY QUESTION Is male factor infertility associated with an increased risk of developing diabetes? SUMMARY ANSWER The study provides evidence that male factor infertility may predict later occurrence of diabetes mellitus with the risk being related to the severity of the underlying fertility problem. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Previous cross-sectional studies have shown an increased prevalence of como
Police crash reports are often the main source for official data in many countries. However, police sampling and data are known to be subject to bias, making the countermeasures adopted according to them possibly inefficient. In the case of bicycle crashes, this bias is most acute and it probably varies across countries, with some of them being more prone to reporting accidents to police than othe
Night,dawn,and dusk have abiotic features that differ from the day. Illumination,wind speeds,turbulence,and temperatures are lower while humidity may be higher at night. Nocturnal pollination occurred in 30% of angiosperm families across 68% of orders,97% of families with C3,two-thirds of fam-ilies with crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM),and 71% dicot families with C4 photosynthesis. Despite its w
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate how relatives of patients with an ostomy rated the various aspects of care, how they perceived the quality of the care provided, and how they ranked their involvement in the care. Patients' satisfaction was also sought, particularly their perception of relatives' involvement.DESIGN: Descriptive cross-sectional.SETTINGS AND SUBJECTS: The study comprise
Objectives: Liver cirrhosis is characterized by a silent phase until decompensation, which is defined by onset of ascites, variceal bleeding, or encephalopathy. Although it is presumed that the survival of decompensated patients is the same regardless of when decompensation occurs, data to support this are scarce. We aimed to study the impact of time of decompensation on the clinical course and su
Objective: To compare iron stores in infants born after elective caesarean section (CS) and a 30 s delay of umbilical cord clamping with those born vaginally after early (≤10 s) or delayed (≥180 s) cord clamping. Design: Prospective observational study with historical control. Setting: Swedish county hospital. Population: 64 infants born after elective CS were compared with a historical control of
This study conducts an investigation and feasibility study on different Reynolds numbers (6000–12000) and Rotation numbers (0.05–0.25) in a matrix cooling geometry. An intended geometry that can be used in gas turbine blades is provided based on flow and heat transfer performance given in these Reynolds and rotation number ranges for stationary and rotational state and then compared with experimen
The entropy generation analysis of fully-developed turbulent heat transfer flow in inward helically corrugated tubes was numerically performed by using a Reynolds stress model. The simulations were conducted for a smooth tube and five cases of corrugated tubes with Reynolds number (Re) ranging from 10,020 to 40,060 at a constant wall temperature condition. The effects of corrugation pitch and heig
Abstract Objective. To increase the accuracy of estimated GFR (eGFR) from creatinine overall and at measured GFR ≥90 mL/min per 1.73 m(2) by revising the Lund-Malmö (LM) equations, to elaborate on more complex forms to improve the LM and CKD-EPI equations further, and to assess benefits of adding lean body mass (LBM). Material and methods. Swedish Caucasians (n = 850, 376 women; median 60, range 1
The propagation channel determines the fundamental basis of wireless communications, as well as the actual performance of practical systems. Therefore, having good channel models is a prerequisite for developing the next generation wireless systems. This thesis first investigates one of the main channel model building blocks, namely clusters. To understand the concept of clusters and channel chara
The current studies were undertaken to gain new insights into the interplay and mechanism of membrane transporters involved in the permeability of estrone-3-sulfate (E1S) in Caco-2 cells cultured either on the bottom of multiwell plastic dishes or on filter support. We demonstrate that Caco-2 cells from the "Deutsche sammlung von mikroorganismen und zellkulturen" (DSMZ) exhibit extensive and consi
