Invasive plants cause substantial economic and environmental damage throughout the world. However, eradication of most invasive species is impossible and, in some cases, undesirable. An alternative is to slow the spread of an invasive species, which can delay impacts or reduce their extent. We identify three main areas where models are used extensively in the study of plant spread and its manageme

BACKGROUND: There is no consensus whether angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) and angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) should be used for secondary prevention in all or in only high-risk patients after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI).OBJECTIVES: This study sought to investigate whether ACEI/ARB treatment after AMI is associated with better outcomes across different risk profiles, inc

Shape characteristics of rising-falling accentual F0 peaks of Stockholm Swedish Accent I words in narrow focus are studied in a corpus of 287 read sentences. The corpus includes statements and three types of polar questions. Results reveal a clear effect of sentence mode on the shape of the accentual rises: Statements are predominantly characterized by convex rises, questions by concave rises.

In this paper three transmitter architectures are compared, that each use the low-frequency envelope and high-frequency phase component of an RF signal. A power amplifier (PA) with Pulse Width Modulation by Variable Gate Bias (PWMVGB) is compared to an Envelope Elimination and Restoration (EER) and Envelope Tracking (ET) configuration. The test circuit is implemented using a discrete GaN HEMT powe

I argue that Lisa Shapiro’s rational reconstruction of Descartes’s provisional moral code in terms of a broad conception of morality supplies us with an interpretative framework that make historiographical sense of the reception of Descartes’s moral philosophy in an Anglophone context on three occasions: the appeal to Descartes made by Henry More, Henry Sidgwick’s abrupt dismissal, and the ensuing

Popular Abstract in Swedish Salmonella infektion drabbar ca 16 miljoner människor i världen per år. Salmonella sprids genom mat och vatten och fšrekommer främst i länder där god hygien är ett problem. Beroende på vilken typ av Salmonella som man infekteras av, kan man drabbas av magsjuka eller en allvarlig systemisk infektion som i värsta fall kan leda till döden (tyfoid feber). Salmonella tar sigThe immune system has several strategies to combat infections. The present study investigates various aspects of the interaction between Gram negative bacteria, particularly Salmonella, and antigen presenting cells (APC). Salmonella is an intracellular bacterium infecting mice and man. Salmonella typhimurium infection in mice is a frequently used model for studying systemic Salmonella infection. O

The Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) is a method to decompose non linear, non stationary time series into a sum of different modes, named Intrinsical Mode Functions each one having a characteristic frequency. In the present work we used the EMD to investigate the properties of the recorded sounds from the Arteriovenous fistula on hemodialysis patients. Phonoangiographic signals coming from two d

Shell galaxies make a class of tidally distorted galaxies, characterized by wide concentric arc(s), extending out to large galactocentric distances with sharp outer edges. Recent observations of young massive star clusters in the prominent outer shell of NGC 474 suggest that such systems host extreme conditions of star formation. In this paper, we present a hydrodynamic simulation of a galaxy merg
