Deep learning has advanced flood forecasting through its strong nonlinear modeling capabilities. However, accuracy declines and robustness remain insufficient at longer forecast lead times. Therefore, an evolutionary deep learning model for flood forecasting was developed by integrating time-varying filter-based empirical mode decomposition (TVFEMD), sample entropy-based signal reconstruction (SE)
BACKGROUND: The Leiden group and the Assessment of Spondyloarthritis International Society (ASAS)-MRI study group have proposed definitions for structural (SL) and active (AL) lesions typical for axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) on MRI of the sacroiliac joints (MRI-SIJ).OBJECTIVES: To analyse the predictive validity of proposed SL and AL MRI-SIJ definitions in early axSpA and compare proposed AL wi
Background: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and substance use disorders (SUD) frequently co-occur in youth. Integrated, trauma-focused treatments are recommended, but evidence in youth is limited and the dynamics of symptom change are poorly understood.Objectives: We investigated within-treatment changes in PTSD and substance use, and their temporal sequencing, in a randomised controlled tria
Background: Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is an established treatment for previously unirradiated spinal metastases; however, the literature is limited with respect to SBRT as a re-irradiation salvage therapy. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis as basis for joint ESTRO-ISRS clinical practice recommendations of salvage SBRT for spinal metastases. Methods: A systematic review
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Iron deficiency anaemia is common in patients recovering from major surgery and is associated with poorer post-operative outcomes. We designed a randomized controlled trial treating post-operative anaemia with iron therapy to observe the influence on post-operative recovery.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Anaemic patients (haemoglobin [Hb] < 120 g/L for women, Hb < 130 g/L for me
Urbanization is driving cities to grow, often through urban densification. Utilising computer-based simulations executed over 3D representations of the city is imperative in addressing the challenges posed by implementing sustainable urban densifications; like ensuring adequate access to daylight and limiting noise pollution. However, since these simulations are usually resource-intensive, timecon
Herein, we present a case of severe immune-related adverse events (irAEs), myocarditis with myositis, and myasthenia gravis overlap syndrome (IM3OS) in a patient receiving an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI), as adjuvant therapy after surgery for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. An 80-year-old woman who had undergone a total cystectomy for bladder cancer presented with ptosis, diplopia, and paraly
Rapporten visar att det finns en gedigen vetenskaplig evidensbas för att utforma åtgärder inom den gemensamma jordbrukspolitiken som bidrar till restaurering av jordbrukslandskap i linje med EU:s naturrestaureringsförordning. Evidensbasen kan stärkas genom en systematisk sammanställning av resultat från restaureringsprojekt, och författarna föreslår adaptiv restaurering för att hantera kontextbero
Forest fire is known as an important natural hazard in many countries which causes financial damages and human losses; thus, it is necessary to investigate different aspects of this phenomenon. In this study, performance of four models of linear and quadratic discriminant analysis (LDA and QDA), frequency ratio (FR), and weights-of-evidence (WofE) was investigated to model forest fire susceptibili
Scapolite-bearing orthogneisses underlying the Proterozoic Varena Iron Ore Deposit, eastern Lithuania, the western East European Craton, represent the development of a sodic alteration zone. Scapolite chemistry records fluid salinity increase with temperature, reaching its maximum at temperatures of ∼750 °C. Fluid-mineral reactions controlled the fluid KCl/NaCl ratio, enabling partial melting at p
The relationship between field measurements of vegetation in a semi arid region and NDVI from the 1 km NOAA AVHRR was investigated within this study. The Hoanib catchment in the northwestern Namibia was chosen as study area. The field measurements were carried out during the month of February 1999. Different NDVI values and combinations of NDVI were used and it was found that the integrated NDVI u
Globalisering är ett ord på allas läppar och i globaliseringens spår följer ett behov av globala ledare. En global ledare är en person som behärskar förmågan att hantera personal av olika nationaliteter, kulturer och team som befinner sig i olika världsdelar. Sony Ericsson, ett "joint venture" företag i mobiltelefonbranschen, tog kontakt med pedagogiska institutionen på Lunds Universite
This paper has its starting point with the discrepancy between the ICPD Plan of Action and the Millennium Development Goals with regards to their separate emphasis on the importance of family planning services as a reproductive health component. The population problem can be looked upon from various theoretical schools. This paper examines the sharply contrasting views of economists, on the one ha
When discussing urban planning and design, the focus often shifts toward large, overcrowded cities that require continuous improvements to remain competitive on the global economic map. However, smaller cities, while not classified as major metropolises, also play a significant role in urban development. These cities accommodate thousands of residents and have maintained their stability over the y
Employing a political ecology framework, this thesis explores Esrange Space Centre in the Swedish High North as a case for broader sociopolitical dynamics in which space infrastructure is increasingly intertwined with green transition and securitisation discourses. Through a Critical Discourse Analysis of three documents, informed by the concepts of capitalist catastrophism and sociotechnical imag
Utredningen om påföljder återfall och verkställighet lämnade genom sitt betänkande, SOU 2024:48, ett förslag om en ny tidsobestämd frihetsberövande påföljd med preventiv utformning som en del av arbetet mot återfallsbrottsligheten. Straffet kallas för säkerhetsstraff och ska gå att utdöma i ett begränsat antal kvalificerade situationer där behovet av samhällsskydd är särskilt påtagligt. PåföljdensThe Inquiry on Sanctions, Recidivism and Enforcement left a proposal to introduce a new sanction through their report SOU 2024:48. The sanction is an indefinite custodial sentence with a preventative structure and is meant to counteract recidivism and ensure protection of members of society against serious crime. The proposed sanction is called 'security penalty' in Swedish and is supposed
The use of public transport has an important role in today's society, in terms of meeting future climate goals. In order to encourage its increased use and to meet future challenges, the importance of human perspectives has increased. Planning for transport equity involves addressing inequalities, prioritizing the needs of vulnerable groups and working towards inclusive and sustainable mobilit
Glacier retreat has cascading effects for mountain communities whose livelihoods and cultural- cosmological beliefs are deeply intertwined with glacier-fed ecosystems. Loss and damage research and governance overly emphasize economic framings rendering intangible losses invisible. This thesis adopts a Plural Values approach to surface lived experiences of glacier-related loss and damage in the Uga
ABSTRACT Phygital and gameful interventions are increasingly used by Destination Management Organisations (DMOs) to manage visitor movement, interpretation, and access in fragile heritage destinations. Yet their contribution to sustainable and resilient destination development remains unclear, particularly when digital tools do not translate smoothly into situated visitor experience. Focusing on D
