In order to move away from fossil fuels many governments and industries are focusing their new investments in electricity and alternative fuels such as green hydrogen from electrolyzers using renewable electricity. High investment costs and electricity costs are a hindrance for the future development of a hydrogen economy which can utilize an increasing intermittent power generation. The aim of th

A low eGFRcystatin C/eGFRcreatinine-ratio is characteristic of a group of serious kidney disorders called ‘Selective Glomerular Hypofiltration Syndromes’. This study examines if such a low ratio can also be used to evaluate the risk for women with hypertensive disorders in pregnancy to develop severe maternal morbidity. All women discharged from the perinatal ward at the Skåne University Hospital

In response to calls for increased professionalism in the restaurant industry, this paper aims to show how it is constituted in the daily practices in the industry, and to clarify ideas of professionalism held by the practitioners in the industry. Micro practices of daily activities performed by restaurant practitioners were identified in 13 small restaurants: 8 in a tourist destination and 5 in c

Public sector services are complex in relation to many private sector services. For example, public sector services contain non-voluntary service interaction. This area of practice has not been extensively researched to date. In this article, we explore and discuss service interaction in public non-voluntary services targeting children, in order to understand what elements go into value co-creatio

While localization helps to create websites and mobile apps for specific target markets, not as much attention was devoted to the area of affective virtual service agents. The situation is changing due to advances in affective computing and artificial intelligence. Virtual service agents have the potential to change the way how people interact with information technology by transforming control me

OBJECTIVES: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows: Research objective 1: to assess the effects of different oxygen saturation targets for the delivery room resuscitation of preterm infants. Research objective 2: to assess the effects of different titration strategies for the delivery room resuscitation of preterm infants.

Akin to Zinc Finger and Transcription Activator Like Effector based transcriptional modulators, nuclease-null CRISPR-Cas9 provides a groundbreaking programmable DNA binding platform, begetting an arsenal of targetable regulators for transcriptional and epigenetic perturbation, by either directly tethering, or recruiting, transcription enhancing effectors to either component of the Cas9/guide RNA c

Defaulter tracing policies for Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT) services are vital for achieving the global goal of zero new HIV infections. However, little is known about their implementation. This qualitative study explores the role of tracers—community volunteers, retention workers, and mentor mothers—in implementing such policy across six facilities in Western Kenya. It uses

Telemedicine is the use of telecommunication and information technologies to support the delivery of healthcare at a distance, guaranteeing patients healthcare by facilitating access where barriers exist; the COVID-19 pandemic has attracted worldwide interest in this field. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the main pros and cons of telemedicine, which serve as the basis of the WONCA Europ

AIMS: Despite exclusion of left atrial thrombi by transoesophageal echocardiography, cardioversion-related thromboembolism has been reported in atrial fibrillation or flutter. To define a low-risk group for cardioversion without previous anticoagulation, patients were selected for immediate cardioversion if there were no thrombi, no echo spontaneous contrast and the outflow velocity of the left at

PURPOSE: Exercise during chemotherapy has beneficial long-term effects on women with breast cancer, but short-term beneficial changes have been less investigated. Though short-term changes may be important as a encouraging factor, this study aimed to investigate immediate changes in self-reported energy, stress, nausea and pain following a single exercise session during chemotherapy.METHODS: Forty

I det morderna samhället spelar appar en central roll. Detta gäller även på Assa Abloy Entrance Systems, där appar används av tekniker för att installera, underhålla och reparera automatiska dörrar. Just nu utvecklas en app som kommer att ersätta alla nuvarande appar. Bakgrunden till detta examensarbete var att involvera framtida användare i utvecklingsprocessen med målet att förbättra användbApps are a central part of modern society, including technicians at Assa Abloy Entrance systems. They use several apps for installing, maintaining and repairing automatic doors. A new app is currently in development to replace all existing apps. The background of this master’s thesis project was to involve future users in the development process with the aim to enhance usability and work satisfac

In the existing securities market structure, a securities trade between two parties requires the involvement of several financial intermediaries ensuring the safety of the transaction. However, the complexity of today’s market structure in conjunction with the lack of interoperability between financial data infrastructures and the disalignment of business practices, are causing costs, risks and fr

Streptococcus bovis/Streptococcus equinus complex (SBSEC) is a common cause of infective endocarditis (IE). For IE-pathogens, the capacity to activate and aggregate platelets is believed to be an important virulence mechanism. While the interactions between bacteria and platelets have been described in detail for many Gram-positive pathogens, little research has been carried out with SBSEC in this
