In order to perform service life predictions of rain exposed wood structures, the moisture and temperature conditions in the structure need to be known as well as which degradation that occurs under those exposure conditions. The microclimate (the moisture conditions at the surface) is the boundary condition for moisture transport into the wood and depends on the detail design; joints between two

OBJECTIVES: To estimate incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) caused by cancer in the Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR) between 2005 and 2015.METHODS: Vital registration system and cancer registry data from the EMR region were analyzed for 29 cancer groups in 22 EMR countries using the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015 methodology.RESULTS: In 2015, cancer was responsi

OBJECTIVES: We used the results of the Global Burden of Disease 2015 study to estimate trends of HIV/AIDS burden in Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR) countries between 1990 and 2015.METHODS: Tailored estimation methods were used to produce final estimates of mortality. Years of life lost (YLLs) were calculated by multiplying the mortality rate by population by age-specific life expectancy. Years

OBJECTIVES: Mental disorders are among the leading causes of nonfatal burden of disease globally.METHODS: We used the global burden of diseases, injuries, and risk factors study 2015 to examine the burden of mental disorders in the Eastern Mediterranean region (EMR). We defined mental disorders according to criteria proposed in the diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders IV and the 1

Background: Differences in cystatin C and creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (EGFR) can lead to clinical uncertainty. Existing EGFR equations perform poorly in a subset of individuals. This study aims to describe the prevalence of differences between cystatin C-based (EGFRcys) and creatinine-based (EGFRcreat) EGFR in older adults and to explore which subsets of individuals may b

Problemställning: Vad händer vid låga relativa luftfuktighetsnivåer och vilka nivåer bör man åstadkomma? Syfte: Skapa en förståelse av vad som sker vid låga relativa luftfuktighetsnivåer och hur människan påverkas vid dessa nivåer. Vidare ska det även skapas en förståelse för vid vilka RF-nivåer befuktning eventuellt kan vara en lämplig åtgärd med beaktande av de fuktrelaterade risker som kan uppProblem: What happens at low relative humidity levels and what levels should be achieved? Purpose: Create an understanding of what happens at low relative humidity levels and how humans are affected at these levels. Furthermore, an understanding of which RH-levels humidification may be an appropriate measure considering the moisture related risks that may occur. Method: The thesis is a literatur

Latest generations of district heating and cooling systems are characterised by low network temperature with uninsulated pipes, decentralised heat pumps and chillers to modulate the network temperature, and shared energy flows between interconnected buildings. This paper presents a simulation model for the design and analysis of these systems. The model was developed using the Modelica language an

Through in situ experiments, this study investigated the erosion resistance of a prototype dike with different vegetation and soil sections built on the Falsterbo peninsula, Sweden. A gravity-driven wave impact simulator was used to simulate waves breaking on the dike. Two sandy soils and three vegetation types (standard grass, biodiverse seed mixture, and hay) were tested for this study. In gener

In this study, laminar burning velocities (LBV) of ammonia in oxygen-enriched air (oxygen content ranging from 30 to 50 vol%) were investigated under various initial temperatures (298, 323, and 348 K) at a pressure of 1 atm, employing the heat flux method. Our measurements reveal substantial disparities with previously published data primarily obtained using the spherical flame method. The reliabi

Blockchain technology is emerging as one of the most transformative forces to have ever reshaped supply chain management, with unique transparency, security, and efficiency. This paper reviews the literature on blockchain technology and applications in core industries such as transportation, manufacturing, food and beverages, and healthcare. At its core, blockchain deploys distributed ledger techn

As a key part of its alignment with EU directives on public procurement, Sweden is actively integrating sustainability and circular economy practices into its construction sector. Circular principles in public procurement empower public authorities to stimulate sustainable practices across the sector, aligning with broader environmental and economic objectives. However, examples of implementing ci

Mostly known for his letters, written in an impressionistic style, Johan Ekeblad was a nobleman and diplomat during the period of the Swedish Empire (svenska stormakts-tiden) in the seventeenth century. This article seeks to treat Ekeblad and his writing as an example of a baroque mentality—here de+ned as marked by dialectical relation-ships of old and new, order and disorder, the religious and th

Kazakhstan is facing increasing water scarcity due to climate change and transboundary international water diversions. For this reason, low-quality water with high mineral content needs to be increasingly used in the future. A way to improve water quality for consumptive use is membrane treatment technology. In view of this, we investigated a new type of synthetic spatial-globular structure (SGS)

Introduction: Patients with midgut neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) suffer from decreased health-related quality of life (HRQoL), in large part due to bowel symptoms. However, it is unknown which bowel symptoms affect HRQoL the most. An enhanced understanding of this is essential to better focus treatment on this aspect of the disease. This study aimed to determine which bowel symptoms affect HRQoL t

Image-based analysis of breast tumour growth rate may help optimize breast cancer screening and diagnosis. It may improve the identification of aggressive tumours and suggest optimal screening intervals. Virtual clinical trial (VCT) is a simulation-based method used to evaluate and optimize medical imaging systems and design clinical trials. Our work is motivated by desire to simulate multiple scr
