Title: ?Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) ? An analysis of how Microsoft could implement VMI functionality in the ERP system Microsoft Dynamics AX.? Authors: Peter Gurenius Johanna Wicander Supervisors: Ola Johansson, Department of Packaging Logistics, Lund University Per Lykke Lynnerup, Microsoft Development Center, Copenhagen Background issues: VMI is being increasingly implemented in com
Changes in extracellular levels of acetylcholine and choline in the hippocampal formation were measured using intracerebral microdialysis coupled to high performance liquid chromatography with post-column enzyme reaction and electrochemical detection. Various pharmacological and physiological manipulations were applied to awake unrestrained normal rats and rats subjected to a cholinergic denervati
This paper is based on the preliminary stage of a PhD research that aims to explore meaning of cultural memories and its relation to the notion of city identities from participatory cultures that occur in Southeast Asian cities. The paper discusses the development of its conceptual framework, from cultural memory studies, participatory cultures in urban context, to digital ethnography as the resea
BACKGROUND:: Little is known regarding gross motor skills (GMS) in children with idiopathic clubfoot (IC). This study describes GMS, specifically foot involvement and asymmetries, and analyses the association between GMS, gait, and foot status in children with IC. METHODS:: Gross motor tasks and gait were analyzed in children with IC and typically developed (TD) children. GMS were assessed using v
Schemes for the biosynthetic steps in the formation of the blood group active glycoproteins in secretions postulate that α-Image -fucosyltransferases specified by the Image and Image genes control the addition of Image -fucose to different acceptor sites in a precursor substance to give H, Lea and Leb serologically active structures. 1,2. The presence of 2-, 3- and 4-α-Image -fucosyl-transferases
BACKGROUND: An increasing number of women are evaluated for potential breast cancer and may experience mental distress during evaluation. We aim to assess the risks of psychiatric disorders and cardiovascular diseases during the diagnostic workup of potential breast cancer.METHODS: All women with a new diagnosis of unspecified lump in breast (N = 15,714), benign tumor or breast cancer in situ (N =
Lanthanum orthovanadate (LaVO4) is the only stable monazite-type rare-earth orthovanadate. In the present paper the equation of state of LaVO4 is studied using in situ high-pressure powder diffraction at room temperature, and ab initio calculations within the framework of the density functional theory. The parameters of a second-order Birch-Murnaghan equation of state, i.e. those fitted to the exp
BACKGROUND: Patient perceptions of iron deficiency and efficacy of iron therapy may differ from the interpretations of doctors. Qualitative investigation at an individual level related may help define patient expectations and therapeutic targets. Therefore, we aimed to explore this concept in exercising females of reproductive age.METHODS: Exercising females (n = 403) who either (a) were currently
This article reports on a search for dijet resonances using 132 fb−1 of pp collision data recorded at (Formula presented) ¼ 13 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The search is performed solely on jets reconstructed within the ATLAS trigger to overcome bandwidth limitations imposed on conventional single-jet triggers, which would otherwise reject data from decays of sub-TeV dij
BACKGROUND: Our aim was to explore the reasoning and experiences of women when offered a self-sampling HPV test.METHODS: This study implemented a qualitative study design and content analysis using an inductive approach. Data consisted of written narratives collected through open-ended questions from a total of 173 women. Women were included if they had been offered a self-sampling device since Se
This study examines the use of directives in Swedish Physical Educa-tion and Health classes, focusing on their application for native Swedish speakers and newly arrived second language learners. It investigates the types of directives used and how they differ when addressing L1 versus L2 students, as well as how teachers utilize directives to simultaneously instruct physical activities and teach s
In multiple myeloma (MM), advancements in treatments and toxicity management have enhanced survival rates. This, coupled with shifting age demographics in MM, necessitates an updated assessment of infection risks in MM patients compared to the general population. Using Swedish population-based registries, we investigated the incidence of infections in 8,672 Swedish symptomatic MM patients diagnose
Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is frequently overlooked and untreated due to insufficient awareness and expertise in mental health settings. We developed a supervisor-supported online education programme to train clinicians in the assessment and treatment of young people with BDD and evaluated its feasibility and preliminary effects. Thirty clinicians working within child and adolescent mental hea
Very high spin (50-60(Latin small letter h with stroke)) states in transitional 156Dy, 159Er and 160Er nuclei have been studied using the GAMMASPHERE and EUROGAM γ-ray spectrometers. The lowest energy positive-parity bands in 156Dy are found to evolve smoothly towards an oblate shape in contrast to the sudden change observed in the neighbouring 158Er nucleus. In 159Er, the decay path of the positi
BackgroundAchieving safe and stable placements is a key mission for the foster care system. Foster parents and social workers are part of a caregiving network with responsibility for the child and their wellbeing. Emotionally dysregulated children's behaviors may pose a challenge to the caregiving system. Trauma-informed care (TIC) interventions aim at enhancing caregivers' understanding of such b
Organic pollutants in aquatic environments pose a threat to ecosystems and human health, a challenge that requires urgent resolution. This urgent threat highlights the need for the development of efficient technologies for pollutant detection and degradation in environmental protection. This study presents the successful fabrication of a composite nanomaterial consisting of Ag nanoparticle-decorat
