The aim of this study was to delineate management zones by using topographical data, and to investigate how these management zones relate to soil parameters and yield. Elevation, as well as soil and yield data, were sampled in the field. Digital elevation models have been created, and the topographical parameters of slope, aspect and drainage area, estimated. Management zones have been delineated

Background: Depression is linked with alexithymia, anxiety, high HbA1c concentrations, disturbances of cortisol secretion, increased prevalence of diabetes complications and all-cause mortality. The psycho-educational method 'affect school with script analysis' and the mind-body therapy 'basic body awareness treatment' will be trialled in patients with diabetes, high HbA1c concentrations and psych

This study examines the long-run relationship between finance and economic growth in Sweden from the 1830s until the 1990s using recently developed econometric techniques for tests of cointegration. The role of investment, education and technological progress (patents) is accounted for as well in order to assess the relative importance of the development of the financial system for growth performa

Background: Desmoplastic melanoma (DM) is a rare subtype, accounting for less than 5% of primary cutaneous invasive melanomas. DM often arises in chronically sun-exposed skin, in older individuals. While the incidence of cutaneous melanoma has increased globally, trends specific to DM are less documented and studies on survival outcomes for DM are inconsistent. Objectives: To study patient and tum

BackgroundComorbidity burden may affect the outcome following endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for medium‐vessel occlusions. Since patients with high comorbidity burden are likely to be underrepresented in trials on EVT for medium‐vessel occlusions, observational data are needed to assess the benefit of EVT for these patients.MethodsWe conducted an observational study on all prestroke independent p

This paper discusses how archaeologists might investigate issues of poverty by focusing on poorhouses. The poor and deprived are rarely prominent objects in archaeological research, probably because archaeologists find it difficult to relate to a concept such as poverty. At the same time, there is material culture that can be clearly linked to poverty. One such materiality is poorhouses. While the

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur socialarbetare och diakoner i Sverige beskriver och resonerar kring sitt förhållningssätt till personer som uttrycker skam i samband med behov av mathjälp. Tio professionella som arbetar med mathjälp deltog i individuella semistrukturerade intervjuer. Framträdande drag i resultaten är tre strategier baserade på argumentation, bemötande och handling i m

Objectives: To examine the risk of progression and time to progression from penile intraepithelial neoplasia (PeIN) to invasive penile cancer in patients treated for PeIN with either surgery, laser ablation or topical treatment, and to examine recurrence risk after treatment of PeIN. Patients and Methods: Data on patients diagnosed with PeIN (n = 1122) between 2000 and 2020 were extracted from the

BackgroundDiagnostic imaging is a dynamic medical field. In nuclear medicine, advancements introduce new procedures utilising innovative radiopharmaceuticals. These developments may influence supply requirements and exposure levels for the patient population. Surveying the frequency of procedures, types of pharmaceuticals, and administered activities provides valuable insights into utilisation tre

Starting from a day-to-day model on hotel specific guest nights we obtain an integer-valued moving average model by cross-sectional and temporal aggregation. The two parameters of the aggregate model reflect mean check-in and the check-out probability. Letting the parameters be functions of dummy and economic variables we demonstrate the potential of the approach in terms of interesting interpreta

The rapid urbanisation and global need for resources have led to an increased use of the underground, resulting in conflicting interests and an urgent need for subsurface planning. The concept of geosystem services is suggested for communicating the diverse values of the subsurface, and to support subsurface planning for ensuring sustainable and equitable underground developments.
