Predicting dust storm susceptibility: exploring control strategies with XGBoost models

Dust storms are meteorological phenomena that occur in arid and semi-arid regions, causing harm to the environment and human health. The frequency and intensity of dust storms have increased in recent years due to climate change and human activities. In response, various dust storm mitigation strategies were introduced, including land use management, afforestation, and mulching. The existing resea

Lost along the way? : Searching for the inclusion-and-difference paradigm in pharmaceutical research and regulation in Sweden

This article examines how the U.S. ‘inclusion-and-difference paradigm’translates to the Swedish context. According to Steven Epstein (2007), thisparadigm combines health equity arguments for racialised minorities andwomen with a biological understanding of racial and gender differences inmedicine. Drawing on interviews with experts, policymakers, and clini-cians involved in international clinical

Jaboticaba peel intake improved cognitive performance, inflammatory response, and appetite regulation in healthy adults : a randomized clinical crossover trial

Jaboticaba (Plinia jaboticaba) is an underutilized Brazilian berry and a source of dietary fiber, cyanidin-3-O-glucoside, and ellagic acid derivatives. Non-clinical studies have shown the potential of jaboticaba to alleviate insulin resistance, low-grade inflammation, and obesity-related cognitive decline, although clinical evidence remains limited. A clinical study was conducted to investigate wh

Combinatorial DNMTs and EZH2 inhibition reprograms the H3K27me3 and DNAme-mediated onco-epigenome to suppress multiple myeloma proliferation

Comprehensive epigenomic studies in multiple myeloma (MM) that unravel the connections between major epigenetic regulators, their intertwined collaboration and the potential of combinatorial targeting remain limited. Utilizing ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq, RNA-seq, and DNA methylation (DNAme) data, we generated whole-genome chromatin annotations from normal plasma cells and MM patients, revealing epigenomic

The Invisible Sand: Unpacking Metabolic Flows and Earthly Entanglements in Extended Urbanization

This article exposes the invisible sand that underpins Copenhagen’s transformation from fishing village to global city. By “following sand,” we trace how planetary material flows sustain urban expansion while entangling the city in processes of capital accumulation, class restructuring, and ecological degradation. Drawing on Science and Technology Studies (STS) approaches, yet situating them firml

Low overall survival after treatment for angiosarcoma : a single-centre retrospective observational cohort study of 64 patients

Background and purpose: Angiosarcoma (AS), a rare and highly malignant tumour, can manifest spontaneously (primary AS, pAS) or secondary to previous radiation, exposure to chemical agents or Stewart-Treves syndrome (secondary AS, sAS). The aim of this study was to characterise the clinical presentation, management, treatment and outcome—including local recurrence, metastasis and overall survival—a

Left-Continuous Random Walk on Z and the Parity of Its Hitting Times

When it comes to random walk on the integers Z, the arguably first step of generalization beyond simple random walk is the class of one-sidedly continuous random walk, where the stepsize in only one direction is bounded by 1. Moreover, the time until state 0 is hit by left-continuous random walk on Z started at 1 has a direct connection to the total progeny in branching processes. In the analysis

Analysing documents through fieldwork

Ethnographic methods can advance our knowledge of a setting through its documents as well as help the researcher to grasp a document in its setting. This chapter contests the idea that the study of documents only refers to close analyses of text. Taking pictures of documents, asking about documents, and observing what people do with documents are approaches that can answer sociologically significa

Getting one’s bearings : a grounded theory study of fathers’ sense of security while attending the birth of their child

Background: During the transition to parenthood, fathers face psychosocial changes that are accompanied by uncertainty and insecurity. Feelings of insecurity may affect fathers’ experiences of pregnancy and childbirth, adjustment to the paternal role, and bonding with their child. There is a need to better understand fathers’ experiences of security and the causal and constitutional factors involv

Kampen om sjukfrånvaron : Tre organisationers konstruktioner av sjukfrånvaron som samhällsproblem : Arbetsliv i omvandling

Under de första åren av 2000-talet betraktades ”den galopperande sjukfrånvaron” som en av de absolut viktigaste frågorna i den välfärdspolitiska debatten. En mängd aktörer förde fram olika (och ibland konkurrerande) uppfattningar om problemet, dess orsaker och tänkbara lösningar. Sådana skeenden brukar kallas problemdefinieringsprocesser och har stor betydelse, både för vilka frågor som hamnar på

Regulating Prostitution in Europe from a Social Work Perspective

This chapter is about social work and prostitution, understood as a relation in which sexual acts are exchanged for money or other material or immaterial resources. The aim is to understand different approaches in social work by linking up to a policy-process perspective. As any social phenomenon, prostitution can be framed differently as a policy problem. The chapter is structured around three di
