Älska Skog educational competition (Gothenburg, Sweden)Gothenburg-based educational institute Universeum is running annual design competitions on forest topics for primary school pupils, starting in 2016. Based on various activities in which pupils gain knowledge about forest-related challenges and opportunities as well as forestry, they would design plans to deal with those problems. After a firs

This article discusses how contemporary coaching and laymen therapy can be discussed as modern revival movements well adapted to contemporary individual-centered and therapeutic society. The search for a soul to redeem has been transformed into new religious concepts as searching for the “true inner self”, “the inner potential” or “the authentic me” and new ritualized practices are designed as hel

Cdk9 is the catalytic core of the positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb) and regulates transcriptional elongation factors by phosphorylation of RNA pol II. Apart from its role on myogenic gene expression, Cdk9 regulation of muscle-specific microRNAs in the early stage of cardiomyogenesis is poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that Cdk9 not only regulates myogenic transcription fact

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a powerful vasoconstrictor in vivo but is usually much less active on isolated blood vessels. The contractile effect of NPY was examined in the isolated rat femoral artery exposed to various degrees of vasoconstriction. The effects of NPY on the relaxation induced by vasodilator agents was also studied. NPY (< or = 1 microM) had no contractile effect. In vessels pretreated

The resurgence of artificial intelligence (AI) has empowered organizations to concentrate their research efforts on enhancing decision-making and automation capabilities. This is being pursued with the goal of increasing productivity, whilst reducing costs. With this, it is perceived that the jobs within these organizations that are considered subject to ‘routine’, or repetitive and mundane tasks,

Today, one of the main economic engines is construction field. A few periods of history showed that in Lithuania, the main goal for the companies were to build fast, cheap dwellings on the empty lots. The capital of Lithuania, Vilnius city is not an exception. City is built ineffectively. Functions, neighbourhoods are far apart from each other and the transportation ineffectiveness leads to the lo

Nutrient recovered faecal sludge is a novel alternative fertilizer product, and is proposed to be promoted in places where improvement in sanitation management is needed, for example in Uganda’s capital Kampala. However, Uganda and most of Africa is perceived as a faecofobic area, i.e. where faeces are stigmatized and guarded by taboos, and there is lacking information regarding Ugandan farmers’ p

Agriculture is necessary for providing nutrition to a growing global population. However, many unsustainable agricultural practices contribute to climate change, cause local pollution and disrupt natural biological and nutrient cycles. Conservation agriculture (CA) is one of the many practices that have been proposed to meet the challenge of sustainable agricultural production. CA aims to restore

Glacier retreat driven by climate change has created intense water scarcity in Ladakh, India, threatening both the local agriculture and livelihoods. In response, Artificial Glaciers (AGs) have emerged as an adaptive strategy. This study examines the role of AGs in enhancing social resilience in the villages of Ursi and Igoo using the Six Attributes of Social Resilience framework. A mixed-methods

Background: Detecting and monitoring monoclonal free light immunoglobulin chains in serum is important for managing patients with B-cell neoplasms. Established methods have relied on immunochemistry, with monoclonality determined through an abnormal ratio of free kappa and lambda chains and an increased concentration of the involved chain. This indirect approach has limitations. Mass spectrometric

Objective: To evaluate the safety, adherence, and efficacy of self-administered balance and resistance exercise using the Borg scale in patients with chronic kidney disease, and to examine relationships between exercise intensity or duration and baseline measures, and relationships between change in physical performance and baseline measures, intensity, or duration. Design: Post-hoc analysis of a

OBJECTIVE: A previous placebo-controlled crossover study of intratympanic latanoprost-a drug commonly used for glaucoma treatment-showed positive effects on hearing, tinnitus, and vertigo in patients with long-standing Ménière disease (MD). We aimed to test the safety and efficacy of intratympanic treatment with latanoprost 0.0005% versus placebo in patients with active MD concerning speech discri

Heating systems must be subjected to hydraulic balancing in order to ensure proper operation. When the heating system is hydraulically imbalanced, heat is unevenly distributed across dwellings resulting in a large temperature spread, overheating, and consequently, waste of energy. In this study, we investigate the extent to which hydraulic imbalance affects the thermal energy consumption in buildi

This chapter discusses trade-offs that need to be struck while developing Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) operations. Ten trade-offs are outlined, pertaining to technical systems, to human operators, and to the combined sociotechnical system in its operational and organizational environment, which have implications for Human-Systems Integration (HSI) in multiple phases of the systems engineering l
