Multifunctional buildings are characterized by multiple functions located within the same building. In this report specific problem areas are identified by the means of interviews and previous method development. The risks identified consider multifunctionality and antagonistic attacks. As a result from the previous method developed and the interviews, reference scenarios are suggested and conclus

The objectives of this activity were to propose a number of alternative HMI solutions (visual, auditory and haptic) for the concept of Safe Speed and Safe Distance and to carry out a pre-screening procedure with a number of test persons in order to give recommendations for the alternative building elements of the SASPENCE “warning-package” consisting of the combination of these modes to be tested

The UPCA for the first time establishes harmonized exceptions and limitations to the effects of granted patent rights. Previously these were the sole province of national law but a with a degree of similarity.This chapter briefly analyses the historical origin, legal nature and scope of Article 27 UPCA, the future harmonizing effect of UPCA patent limitations, followed by a discussion on each limi

BACKGROUND: Infective endocarditis is associated with higher mortality in elderly patients, but the role of surgery in this group has not been fully evaluated. The aim of this study was to assess outcomes of left-sided infective endocarditis in elderly patients and to determine the influence of surgery on mortality in the elderly. METHODS AND RESULTS: A nationwide retrospective study was performed

This brief overview of the use of household salt (NaCl) in optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dosimetry is focusing on the use of NaCl pellets. It is suggested that the most optimal use of household NaCl, in general prospective dosimetry, is to compress the salt grains to pellets and read the radiation induced signal using OSL rather than TL. A summary of the main OSL dosimetric properties is

Early ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) are associated with increased in-hospital mortality but do not influence the long-term prognosis in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Recent data advocate a differential approach to the type of arrhythmia and indicate long-term mortality hazard associated with monomorphic VT. We aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of

Background: Factors predicting long-term prognosis in patients with acute dyspnea may guide both acute management and follow-up. The aim of this study was to identify socioeconomic and clinical risk factors for all-cause mortality among acute dyspnea patients admitted to an Emergency Department. Methods: We included 798 patients with acute dyspnea admitted to the ED of Skåne University Hospital, M

Aims/hypothesis: We aimed to investigate the association between maternal consumption of gluten-containing foods and other selected foods during late pregnancy and offspring risk of islet autoimmunity (IA) and type 1 diabetes in The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study. Methods: The TEDDY study recruited children at high genetic risk for type 1 diabetes at birth, and p
