This research investigates the daylight regulation compliance of existing multi-family housing developments located primarily in Stockholm (Lat.: 59,33 °N), Sweden. A representative sample of 54 buildings consisting of 10.888 individual rooms was modelled according to archived documentation drawings and evaluated by use of Radiance simulations, to test their compliance with the current Swedish day
Femtosecond (fs)-laser electronic-excitation tagging velocimetry (FLEET) in a nitrogen flow field using a 267 nm laser was performed under the condition of fs-laser filamentation. The filamentous properties and their effects on velocity measurements were investigated and were compared with those of an 800 nm fs-laser. The results show that the required energy of the 267 nm laser pulse is as low as
A binocular eye tracker needs to be accurate to enable the determination of vergence, distance to the binocular fixation point and fixation disparity. These measures are useful in e.g. the research fields of visual perception, binocular control in reading and attention in 3D. Are binocular pupil-based video eye trackers accurate enough to produce meaningful binocular measures? Recent research reve
Background: Fish contains methylmercury (MeHg) which can cause oxidative stress and neurodevelopmental toxicity at sufficiently high doses. Fish also contains polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) which have both antioxidant (n-3) and oxidant (n-6) properties. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is sensitive to oxidative stress but has not been previously studied in relation to MeHg exposure or PUFA status. Ob
DN Debatt: Sverige har åtagit sig att skydda 20 procent av landets land- och sötvattensområden till 2020. Men hittills har bara 4–5 procent av den omfattande produktiva skogen bevarats. För att nå de demokratiskt beslutade målen måste Skogsstyrelsens beslut om stopp för inventering av nyckelbiotoper hävas, skriver sju forskare.
Collective effects are observed in high-multiplicity pp events, similar to the signals traditionally attributed to the formation of a Quark Gluon Plasma in heavy ion collisions. In core–corona models it is assumed that a partial plasma formation is indeed possible also in pp, but here the focus is on several recent models that attempt to explain pp data without invoking plasma formation. These att
Correct diagnosis of pulmonary tumors is essential for treatment decision and often relies on immunohistochemical markers. We stained tissue microarrays from resected primary lung cancer (n = 665) and pulmonary metastases (n = 425) for CK7, CK20, CDX2, CK5, p40, p63, TTF-1, napsin A, GATA3, and PAX8 to systematically assess the diagnostic value of these markers. Primary lung adenocarcinomas expres
I outline the interplay between biological and socio-cultural dimensions of immunity and risk in the context of migration from Afghanistan to Sweden during the COVID-19 pandemic. Documenting my interlocutors’ responses to everyday situations, I explore the challenges they face in a new society. Their references to immunity reveal ideas about bodily and biological functions, as well as sociocultura
Phase retrieval is the numerical procedure of recovering a complex-valued signal from knowledge about its amplitude and some additional information. Here, an indirect registration procedure, based on the large deformation diffeomorphic metric mapping (LDDMM) formalism, is investigated as a phase retrieval method for coherent diffractive imaging. The method attempts to find a deformation which tran
Purpose of the studyIn this paper, we discuss the unexploited possibilities of user-orientation to promote sustainable governance and management of value co-creation in innovation projects within welfare service ecosystem. The paper’s theoretical framework takes the outset in public service logic (PSL) and its user-oriented perspective. As such, we test the thesis that service-innovation seriously
Children’s and young persons’ rights have received increasing been focus in recent decades, due in a significant degree to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. In Sweden, compulsory care in the social-services system is disputed, not least for the forceful measures that facility personnel have at their disposal to control children in certain conflict situations. The general aim of this ar
ABO compatibility is important for kidney transplantation, with longer waitlist times for blood group B kidney transplant candidates. However, kidneys from non-A1 (eg, A2) subtype donors, which express less A antigen, can be safely transplanted into group B recipients. ABO subtyping is routinely performed using anti-A1 lectin, but DNA-based genotyping is also possible. Here, we compare lectin and
Aim: To evaluate patients’ and family members’ perceived support from light and color before, compared with after an evidence-based design (EBD) intervention at an emergency department (ED) using a validated instrument—the Light and Color Questionnaire (LCQ). Background: EDs offer acute care day and night. Thus, a supportive physical environment where light and color is crucial for how the milieu
Previous works provided several counterexamples to monotonicity of the lowest eigenvalue for the magnetic Laplacian in the two-dimensional case. However, the three-dimensional case is less studied. We use the results obtained by Helffer, Kachmar, and Raymond to provide one of the first counterexamples in 3D. Considering the magnetic Robin Laplacian on the unit ball with a constant magnetic field,
AIM: To evaluate if the incidence of postoperative complications after gastrostomy placement is correlated to perioperative parameters or patient characteristics.METHODS: In this prospective observational study, children <18 years of age planned to receive a gastrostomy at partaking clinics between 2014 and 2019 were invited. Pre-, peri- and postoperative variables were collected and followed up 3
Objective: To implement artificial neural network (ANN) algorithms for noninvasive lymph node staging (NILS) to a decision support tool and facilitate the option to omit surgical axillary staging in breast cancer patients with low-risk of nodal metastasis. Methods: The NILS tool is a further development of an ANN prototype for the prediction of nodal status. Training and internal validation of the
