Improved Working Conditions and Paths to Worker Solidarity in an Increasingly Diversified EU

The chapter discusses the importance of the EU continuing to promote improved living and working conditions for its citizens without simultaneously risking competition between workers from different member states. The problem discussion is based on the significance of social improvements for the EU to maintain support among citizens and the challenges that arise when EU law encounters the differen

Per-Patient Illness Trajectory Analyses

Background: Summary statistics often hide individual patients' suffering, thereby impeding quality improvement efforts. Objectives: We aimed to show the experience of a population with health care toward the end of life while preserving the experience of the individual. Design: We developed a data display method called per-patient illness trajectory analysis. We tested it using a demonstration coh

Origins of the knowledge economy : Higher education and Scandinavia’s development, ca. 1800–1929

Gymnasie- och universitetsutbildning var länge en elitens domän. Med ekonomisk tillväxt och ökande teknisk komplexitet växte dock behovet av specialiserad kunskap och färdigheter. Inför och under industrialiseringen tog systemen för högre utbildning emot ett ökande antal studenter och breddades med ett växande utbud av kurser och typer av utbildningsinstitutioner.Danmark, Norge och Sverige utgör rHigh school and university-level education was long an elite pursuit. However, with economic growth and rising technical complexity, the need for specialised knowledge and skills increased. In the run-up to and during industrialisation, higher education systems admitted a growing number of students and diversified across an increasing range of courses and types of educational institutions.Denmark,

Nurses’ Work-Related Mental Health in 2017 and 2020: A Comparative Follow-Up Study before and during the COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic put a lot of strain on healthcare organizations. Nurses accountfor over 50% of healthcare staff, and how nurses perform in their work is influenced by a number ofhuman and work environmental factors. However, to our knowledge, there has not been a previousstudy with the intention to look at all areas that affect a sustainable working life and how theseimpact nurses’ mental we

The structure and function of P5A-ATPases

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane resident P5A-ATPases broadly affect protein biogenesis and quality control, and yet their molecular function remains debated. Here, we report cryo-EM structures of a P5A-ATPase, CtSpf1, covering multiple transport intermediates of the E1 → E1-ATP → E1P-ADP → E1P → E2P → E2.Pi → E2 → E1 cycle. In the E2P and E2.Pi states a cleft spans the entire membrane, holding

A Capture-Recapture-based Ascertainment Probability Weighting Method for Effect Estimation with Under-ascertained Outcomes

Outcome under-ascertainment, characterized by the incomplete identification or reporting of cases, poses a substantial challenge in epidemiologic research. While capture-recapture methods can estimate unknown case numbers, their role in estimating exposure effects in observational studies is not well established. This paper presents an ascertainment probability weighting framework that integrates

Long-term clinical outcomes and prognosis

This chapter presents the long-term clinical outcomes and prognosis of COVID-19. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has triggered a global pandemic infecting over 773 million people and causing over seven million deaths worldwide as of December 2023 (WHO Coronavirus). Despite the United Nations proclaimed the coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic officially over on M

Transformation of a plasmid-free, genital tract isolate of Chlamydia trachomatis with a plasmid vector carrying a deletion in CDS6 revealed that this gene regulates inclusion phenotype

The development of a plasmid-based genetic transformation protocol for Chlamydia trachomatis provides the basis for the detailed investigation of the function of the chlamydial plasmid and its individual genes or coding sequences (CDS). In this study we constructed a plasmid vector with CDS6 deleted (pCDS6KO) from the original Escherichia coli/C. trachomatis shuttle vector pGFP::SW2. pCDS6KO was t

Mechanical properties of lime-hemp concrete containing shives and fibres

The effect of using different binding agents in combination with hemp shives and fibres in Lime-Hemp Concrete (LHC) building material was examined. LHC is a light composite building material with building lime as binding agents and hemp (Cannabis sativa) as a renewable raw material from agriculture. Contemporary LHC only uses the woody core part of the hemp, the shive. However, using both hemp shi
