Street-level concentrations of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and particulate matter (PM) exceed public health standards in many cities, causing increased mortality and morbidity. Concentrations can be reduced by controlling emissions, increasing dispersion, or increasing deposition rates, but little attention has been paid to the latter as a pollution control method. Both NO2 and PM are deposited onto su

Over the last decades, the field of thermal neutron detection has overwhelmingly employed He-3-based technologies. The He-3 crisis together with the forthcoming establishment of the European Spallation Source have necessitated the development of new technologies for neutron detection. Today, several promising He-3-free candidates are under detailed study and need to be va

Omräkning av barns (≥2 år) kreatininvärden till motsvarande värden vid 18 års ålder och applicerade i Lund–Malmö-formeln för vuxna ledde till avsevärt förbättrad skattning av GFR bland barn vid uppmätt GFR <75, bibehållen noggrannhet ≥75 ml/min/1,73m2 och likvärdig med pediatriska formler.Lund–Malmö-formeln kan användas under hela livet ≥2 år utan plötsliga artificiella förändringar i skattad GFR Age-adjustment of creatinine, i.e. recalculation of childhood levels of creatinine to corresponding levels at 18 years of age and applied in the adult revised Lund-Malmö GFR equation led to markedly improved accuracy in Swedish children (n=1 718) at measured GFR <75 mL/min/1.73 m2 (n=318) and preserved high accuracy at ≥75 mL/min/1.73 m2 (n=1 400). The adjusted LMR equation performed as well as de

Arctic archaeologists generally accept that Dorset Paleo-Inuit (Tuniit) (c. 800 BC-1300 AD) toolkits exhibit high levels of typological uniformity across Arctic Canada and Greenland. This understanding implies that the artifacts were likely produced according to a standardized set of practices that were somehow ÷einforced over time and shared across the isolated sites and communities inhabiting th

Purpose: Global megatrends such as urbanization and ageing of the population result in fast-paced demographic changes, which pose different types of challenges for different regions. While many rural municipalities bear the burden of under-used buildings, cities are in a hurry to develop new ones to meet new space demands. The purpose of this paper is to assess the potential of relocatable modular

This work focuses on the optimization of the Nuclear Reaction Analysis (NRA) technique to determine the content of lithium and fluorine in geological materials. Measuring low concentration of these isotopes is of great relevance in many fields such as geological, astrophysical, biological and material sciences. Light elements as lithium and fluorine are considered as geochemical tracers in vario

High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is the most common subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer and early detection is challenging. TP53 mutations are a hallmark of HGSOC and detection of these mutations in liquid-based Pap samples could provide a method for early diagnosis. Here we evaluate the use of IBSAFE, an ultra-sensitive droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) method, for detecting TP53 mutations in

Elder law is often approached in terms of a 'body' of law. In this article, I argue for a contextualised and externalised perspective on the ageing individual as the subject of elder law. Elder law relates to the implications of law as an institutionalisation of society seen through the lens of older persons. The aged subject is a contested and differentiated social construct to be studied in rela

Pulsed arterial spin labelling remains a non-invasive and highly used method for the study of rodent cerebral blood flow (CBF). Flow-sensitive alternating inversion recovery (FAIR) is one of the most commonly used MR-sequences for this purpose and exists with many different strategies to record the images. This study investigates Look-Locker (LL) TrueFISP readout for FAIR as an alternative to the

The ice cover presence on the surface of a lake insulates the water body from the atmosphere. This prevents or reduces the influence of processes which depend on the exchange between the atmosphere and the water surface. This implies significant reduction or elimination of some processes taking place at the open water surface; for instance, a substantial reduction in solar energy penetrating to th

Background: The ongoing pandemic is having a collateral health effect on delivery of surgical care to millions of patients. Very little is known about pandemic management and effects on other services, including delivery of surgery. Methods: This was a scoping review of all available literature pertaining to COVID-19 and surgery, using electronic databases, society websites, webinars and preprint

European renewable energy policy has gone through a remarkable development over the last few years. It has moved from being a predominantly national-level concern with a focus on environmental issues to a top European policy agenda item where security of supply and competitiveness concerns figure with equal prominence. In 2007 and 2008 EU established a very forceful policy framework with ambitiou

The effective management of end-users and their requirements in construction projects can bring a number of benefits, for example more satisfied and less critical end-users in terms of both the product and project. Building occupants are however continually changing and with that their needs. It is thereby a challenge to understand what brings value for both known and unknown end-users. More over

The purpose of this study was to get a better understanding of how social workers at family centres perceive psychosocial support for new mothers and how social workers can contribute to a healthy transition to parenthood. To fulfil the purpose semi-structured individual interviews were conducted with four social workers working at family centres in different municipalities in Sweden. Bowlby’s att
