Anastomotic leak following oesophagectomy : research priorities from an international Delphi consensus study

BACKGROUND: The Oesophago-Gastric Anastomosis Audit (OGAA) is an international collaborative group set up to study anastomotic leak outcomes after oesophagectomy for cancer. This Delphi study aimed to prioritize future research areas of unmet clinical need in RCTs to reduce anastomotic leaks.METHODS: A modified Delphi process was overseen by the OGAA committee, national leads, and engaged clinicia

International Variation in Surgical Practices in Units Performing Oesophagectomy for Oesophageal Cancer : A Unit Survey from the Oesophago-Gastric Anastomosis Audit (OGAA)

BACKGROUND: Anastomotic leaks are associated with significant risk of morbidity, mortality and treatment costs after oesophagectomy. The aim of this study was to evaluate international variation in unit-level clinical practice and resource availability for the prevention and management of anastomotic leak following oesophagectomy.METHOD: The Oesophago-Gastric Anastomosis Audit (OGAA) is an interna

Design and Evaluation of Three User Interfaces for Detecting Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Using Virtual Reality

Regulations restrict UAVs to fly only within direct view of the pilot, limiting their ability to support critical societal functions. One potential way to move beyond this limitation is by placing a 360-degree camera on the vehicle and using its feed to provide operators with a view that is the equivalent to being on the vehicle. This necessitates a cockpit user interface (UI) that amongst other t

Scientific Evidence on the Political Impact of the Sustainable Development Goals

In 2015, the United Nations agreed on 17 Sustainable Development Goals as the central normative framework for sustainable development worldwide. The effectiveness of governing by such broad global goals, however, remains uncertain, and we lack comprehensive meta-studies that assess the political impact of the goals across countries and globally. We present here condensed evidence from an analysis

Exploring Global Climate Policy Futures and Their Representation in Integrated Assessment Models

The Paris Agreement, adopted in 2015, paved the way for a new hybrid global climate governance architecture with both bottom-up and top-down elements. While governments can choose individual climate goals and actions, a global stocktake and a ratcheting-up mechanism have been put in place with the overall aim to ensure that collective efforts will prevent increasing adverse impacts of climate chan

Rethinking authority in global climate governance : How transnational climate initiatives relate to the international climate regime

In the past few years, numerous authors have highlighted the emergence of transnational climate initiatives, such as city networks, private certification schemes, and business self-regulation in the policy domain of climate change. While these transnational governance arrangements can surely contribute to solving the problem of climate change, their development by different types of sub- and non-s

High-throughput muscle fiber typing from RNA sequencing data

Background: Skeletal muscle fiber type distribution has implications for human health, muscle function, and performance. This knowledge has been gathered using labor-intensive and costly methodology that limited these studies. Here, we present a method based on muscle tissue RNA sequencing data (totRNAseq) to estimate the distribution of skeletal muscle fiber types from frozen human samples, allow

Aedes aegypti mosquitoes detect acidic volatiles found in human odor using the IR8a pathway

Mosquitoes use olfaction as a primary means of detecting their hosts. Previously, the functional ablation of a family of Aedes aegypti olfactory receptors, the odorant receptors (ORs), was not sufficient to reduce host seeking in the presence of carbon dioxide (CO2). This suggests the olfactory receptors that remain, such as the ionotropic receptors (IRs), could play a significant role in host det

Vad är viktigast för studenterna i deras digitala lärmiljö?

Med fokus på digitala lärplattformar ställer denna studie frågan: vad är egentligen viktigast för studenterna i den digitala lärmiljön? Vad är den vanligaste anledningen till att studenter upplever att de digitala verktygen ställer till det för dem? Resultatet visar att det finns ett par faktorer som gäller struktur och förståelse av lärarens tanke med kursen som behöver vara uppfyllda för att kur

Autentisk examination – vad är det?

Inom professionsutbildningar finns inbyggt attstudenterna förr eller senare skall vara kapabla att hanteraautentiska situationer och problem. Därav följer möjligen attdet sätt vi testar studenterna på i examinationen också skallvara så autentiskt som möjligt. I denna text utforskaslitteraturen kring fenomenet autentisk examination, relationentill andra begrepp kring lärande berörs och slutligen re
