Over recent years many urban areas have experienced severe floods caused by extreme precipitation events. To avoid the devastating socioeconomic and environmental consequences of such floods, countries have issued laws or recommendations on flood risk assessment in urban planning. However, these laws or recommendations seldom include detailed requirements on input data quality or explicit instruct
In 2020, a case report described autologous transplantation of iPSC-derived dopamine (DA) neurons in a Parkinson's disease (PD) patient.1 The team now follows up with the pre-clinical safety and efficacy data of autologous iPSC-derived DA neurons, forming the basis for regulatory approval of a phase 1 clinical trial involving 8 patients.2
In this study, we demonstrate a successful application of laser absorption spectroscopy in an in-situ optical diagnostic system to map the radial distribution of the number density of vapor-phase aluminum (Al) atoms around a burning micron-sized Al droplet. This technique overcomes the challenges associated with the short optical path (at micron scale) and offers high sensitivity to Al atom concen
Background: Musculoskeletal disorders (MSK) are a global burden causing significant suffering and economic impact. Systematic identification and targeting of research questions of highest interest for stakeholders can aid in improving MSK disorder knowledge and management. Objective: To obtain Swedish MSK researchers' opinions and views on a collaborative Swedish MSK network (SweMSK) and identify
The aim of this study was to explore the longitudinal association between reported baseline water intake and incidence of coronary artery disease (CAD) and type 2 diabetes in the Malmö Diet and Cancer Cohort (n = 25,369). Using cox proportional hazards models, we separately modelled the effect of plain and total (all water, including from food) water on CAD and type 2 diabetes risk, whilst adjusti
PURPOSE: Accurate whole-gland prostate segmentation is crucial for successful ultrasound-MRI fusion biopsy, focal cancer treatment, and radiation therapy techniques. Commercially available artificial intelligence (AI) models, using deep learning algorithms (DLAs) for prostate gland segmentation, are rapidly increasing in numbers. Typically, their performance in a true clinical context is scarcely
Background: Previous population-based studies investigating the relationship between physical activity and the gut microbiota have relied on self-reported activity, prone to reporting bias. Here, we investigated the associations of accelerometer-based sedentary (SED), moderate-intensity (MPA), and vigorous-intensity (VPA) physical activity with the gut microbiota using cross-sectional data from th
Fe(II) N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes have emerged over the last decade as a promising class of light-harvesting complexes for a variety of photochemical applications relying on the presence of high-energy excited states of mainly charge-transfer character with excited state lifetimes of tens of picoseconds or longer. Recent spectroscopic investigations have significantly refined the under
Objective: The global impact of osteoarthritis is growing. Currently no disease modifying osteoarthritis drugs/therapies exist, increasing the need for preventative strategies. Knee injuries have a high prevalence, distinct onset, and strong independent association with post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). Numerous groups are embarking upon research that will culminate in clinical trials to asses
Bi2O3 is a promising material for solid-oxide fuel cells (SOFC) due to the high ionic conductivity of some phases. The largest value is reached for its δ-phase, but it is normally stable at temperatures too high for SOFC operation, while nanostructured oxide is believed to have more suitable stabilization temperature. However, to manufacture such a material with a controlled chemical composition i
Riparian buffer zones (RBZs) are an important instrument for environmental policies for water and biodiversity protection in managed forests. We investigate the variation of the cost of implementing RBZs within different property size classes across the size range of non-industrial forest owner properties in Southern Sweden. Using the Heureka PlanWise decision support system, we quantified the cos
Objectives Better understanding of societal factors associated with COVID-19 vaccination can have important implications for public health policy to increase uptake.Methods This study investigated sociodemographic determinants of COVID-19 vaccine uptake with ≥2 doses vs 0 doses, and ≥3 doses vs 2 doses, among adults (≥18 years) in a general population from Sweden followed from 27 December 2020 (n=
Att aktieägare skriver aktieägaravtal är vanligt förekommande i svenska aktiebolag och då framförallt i mindre, privata bolag. I aktieägaravtalet kan man avtala om bland annat rösträttsbegränsningar och ägarförhållanden. Den allmänna uppfattningen i Sverige har sedan länge varit att aktieägaravtal endast är obligationsrättsliga mellan avtalsparterna, och därmed aldrig kan binda aktiebolaget. Ett a
This paper intends to investigate the impact of the two-sided market effect with nearby theories, the importance of customer loyalty and customer relationship management in the newspaper industry. It takes its theoretical references from academic research literature and interviews with the focus on customer loyalty and customer relationship management in the two-sided market environment. The resu
