Radiation dosimetry and cancer risk estimations are central to virtually all radiation safety applications, optimization, and research. These estimates relate to various exposure situations including planned, existing, and emergency situations. The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) has developed a new methodology to handle the dosimetry of an acute/single intake of radionu

High energy prices recently have moved nuclear power back into the limelight. The biggest risk of nuclear industry has been large-scale accidents that give rise to ground deposition of long-lived fission products such as 137Cs, notably Chernobyl in 1986 (Ukraine) and Fukushima in 2011 (Japan). In Japan, extensive land remediation of residential areas was carried out at an estimated direct cost bet

Byggnader är en central komponent i 3D stadsmodeller. Att skapa sådana modeller enligt relevant standard är inte alltid enkelt och kan vara tidskrävande. Den här studien undersöker en metod att skapa byggnadsmodeller utifrån the svenska nationella specifikationen (NS) för byggnader, i en detaljnivå (LOD) som inkluderar takform. Metoden utvärderar hur byggnadsytor (registerbyggnad) tillsammans med

OBJECTIVE: Autoantibodies have long been recognized as biomarkers of islet autoimmunity in type 1 diabetes, but their role in the pathogenesis is not fully understood. The aim of this study was to analyze clinical and hereditary characteristics of children presenting with and without autoantibodies at type 1 diabetes diagnosis.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Data were collected from children (<18 yea

Purpose: Children with delayed reconstruction of esophageal atresia (DREA) have a high risk of morbidity. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of feeding difficulties in children with DREA, differences to children with primary anastomosis (PA) and identify risk factors for feeding difficulties in children with DREA. Methods: Parents of 30 children with DREA, born 2001–2018, were r

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are becoming an increasingly global concern. PFASs are highly fluorinated organic chemicals that represent a serious risk for environmental and human health. Due to their toxicological impact, PFASs are now included in several emission regulations. Even if the global level of PFASs use is decreasing much of present concentrations in the environ

AimsThe epidemiology of proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) has been described in terms of incidence, fracture complexity, and general time trends, but current literature on time trends in PHF complexity is limited. This study aims to explore possible time trends in PHF complexity and report the distribution of different types of PHF from January 1944 to December 2020.MethodsThe city of Malmö, Swede

As the drive to find sustainable and technological solutions to ongoing global problems becomes increasingly urgent, implementing timely innovation is needed now more than ever. The concept of regional innovation systems has recently gained popularity as a recipe for innovation and increasing knowledge transfer on a smaller scale. Specifically, the role of education in regional innovation systems

Our relationships with others structure many aspects of our lives, especially during important moments such as choosing an education, entering the workforce, forming partnerships or starting a family. While the influence of family and parenting has been widely studied, less is known about the role of non-family connections, such as neighbours. One reason is that the data needed to study these rela

Background: Opioid use disorder is a chronic disorder with a high risk of overdose-related morbidity and mortality where a large proportion of these can be averted by timely administration of the antidote naloxone. For naloxone to be present when and where overdoses occur, broad-scale overdose education and naloxone distribution (OEND) must be established. A regional naloxone program was implement

Black carbon (BC) is produced by incomplete combustion of biomass and fossil fuels and is released as aerosols to the atmosphere with effects on the climate, environment, and human health. Current BC emissions are well monitored in many parts of the world. However, the geographical coverage is limited, and historical records of BC accumulation are still scarce. Here we present a quantification of
