Since the energy required in the paper drying process gives rise to substantial costs for the paper producing companies, it is of great interest to reduce the input of primary energy resources to the dryer. Either process changes or further heat recovery can be employed. A simulation tool was developed, using the programming tool Extend, with the aim to accurately describe the energy use and costs
IVF och världsbanken är två grundpelare i det ekonomiska systemet. Ända sedan deras födelse vid Bretton Woods konferensen 1944 har de varit nyckelaktörer i uppbyggnaden av ekonomier. På senare år har organisationerna varit verksamma i att övervaka det monetära systemet och i kriget mot fattigdom världen runt. Men vad är det egentligen som skiljer de två organisationerna åt och vilka konsekvenser f

Background. National registries that capture patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) across all stages are scarce. We present here the Swedish Renal Registry (SRR), a nationwide prospective register covering the whole spectrum of CKD. Methods. Created in 1991, SRR enrolls CKD patients referred to adult nephrologist care (non-dialysis CKD [ND-CKD], kidney transplantation, maintenance dialysis),
Objective: This study examined two Death-Implicit Association Test versions targeting associations between the self-concept (standard identity D-IAT; iD-IAT) and internal versus external control (adapted control D-IAT; cD-IAT) and death among suicide attempters. Additionally, correlations with explicit psychological variables and psychometrics were explored. Method: 116 psychiatric inpatients (58.
Introduction: Ultra-severe traumatic brain injury (us-TBI), defined as Glasgow Coma Scale score (GCS) of five-three, is associated with high mortality and severe morbidity amongst survivors. However, in selected patients a favourable recovery may still be achieved. Research question: We aimed to characterise what clinical parameters can be used as prognosticators in us-TBI patients. Material and m
25 April 2026 21:30 | Concert INTONAL 2026 Music has always been an abstract art (architecture of time, phrasing, relation to the memory and perception of the listener) and expressive art (diversified relationships to a text, to imagination, to external elements, to the psychological self, to Spirituality). What I try is to reintroduce this expressivity in technological music. Among other things,

There is still a need for new agents which improve upon the therapeutic index of tiotropium, the current standard of care for many patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We examined in patients with COPD the efficacy of single doses of AZD9164, an M(3)-selective muscarinic antagonist, to identify an appropriate dose-range for future studies. COPD patients (n = 28) inhaled AZD9
Popular Abstract in Swedish Inom området diagnostisk nuklearmedicin används radioaktiva läkemedel som ges (administreras) till patienterna i syfte att diagnostisera ett antal olika sjukdomstillstånd. Då man tar fram nya radioaktiva läkemedel för användning inom diagnostisk nuklearmedicin handlar det många gånger om att uppskatta mängden av ett visst upptag av radiofarmakat i olika organ och vävnadAn essential part of the development of new radiopharmaceuticals for use in diagnostic nuclear medicine is the determination of its biokinetic properties. The uptake and turn-over of the radiopharmaceutical in the source organs is of great interest since this could determine whether the radiopharmaceutical would be suitable for clinical use or not. It is also important that the biokinetics and dos
OBJECTIVE: The potential association between thyroid hormones and breast cancer has been investigated in a large number of studies without conclusive results. This study investigated T3 levels in relation to breast cancer mortality in a population with no breast cancer patients at baseline. An additional aim was to study T3 levels in relation to mortality from other cancers and all-cause mortality
Background: We aimed to explore the effects of polypharmacy and specific drug classes on readmissions and mortality after hip surgery. Methods: We analyzed data on 272 consecutive hip fracture patients (72.1% females; age 82±9 years) who underwent acute hip replacement. We collected detailed data on the pharmacological treatment upon admission and discharge. Patients were followed up over a period

Ökande oljepriser och en stigande efterfrågan gör idag undersökningar av alternativa petroleumreservoarer extra intressanta. Istället för att borra i den sedimentära berggrunden ges nu möjligheten att granska kristallina berggrundsreservoarer. Den här typen av borrning i kristallin berggrund äger rum på flera platser i världen, exempelvis i Vietnam och Yemen. Det norska företaget Lundin Norway AS
Today it is no news that there exists social exclusion and vulnerable groups of people in our cities and all around our country. This is often connected to preconceptions about certain areas. I can see in the face of us people hope of future, dreams and goals. But when and how are we given the opportunity to, irrespective of our knowledge or background, together affect and influence our surroundin
