The efficiency in an internal combustion engine ranges from 25% to 45%. About 50% - 85% of the overall energy losses in a combustion engine is heat which is either cooled away by the vehicle's radiator or blown out with the exhaust gases. The heat has to be cooled off by the vehicle's cooler and this energy is never put into use again and is therefore called 'waste heat'. Even if a
Background: Trauma to the pancreas is rare but associated with significant morbidity. Currently available management guidelines are based on low-quality evidence and data on long-term outcomes is lacking. This study aimed to evaluate clinical characteristics and patient-reported long-term outcomes for pancreatic injury. Methods: A retrospective cohort study evaluating treatment for pancreatic inju
Background: Regional myocardial function is typically evaluated by visual assessment by experienced users, or by methods requiring substantial post processing time. Visual assessment is subjective and not quantitative. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to develop and validate a simple method to derive quantitative measures of regional wall function from velocity encoded Cardiovascular Magnet
Forests mitigate climate change by storing carbon and reducing emissions via substitution effects of wood products. Additionally, they provide many other important ecosystem services (ESs), but are vulnerable to climate change; therefore, adaptation is necessary. Climate-smart forestry combines mitigation with adaptation, whilst facilitating the provision of many ESs. This is particularly challeng

First, we argue that the process of encoding is linked to the strict demand for dispassion in legal settings.

This study investigates whether a genderless second language (L2; English) reshapes grammatical gender (GG) effects derived from two gendered first languages (L1s; Ukrainian and Russian) in multilinguals. Previous work showed that when GG aligns across these L1s, it influences categorisation and recall of multilinguals, whereas mismatching L1s yield effects from the more proficient L1 only on cate
OBJECTIVES: To correlate femoral neck Hounsfield units (HUs) measured on a computed tomography (CT) scan to dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) T-scores allowing evaluation of bone mineral density (BMD) over time after lower extremity trauma-related amputation.DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study.SETTING: United States military trauma referral center.PATIENTS: Military combat-related lower extre
Introduction Despite the improvements in diabetes management by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) it is difficult to capture the complexity of CGM data in one metric. We aimed to develop a clinically relevant multidimensional scoring model with the capacity to identify the most alarming CGM episodes and/or patients from a large cohort. Research design and methods Retrospective CGM data from 2017
This article applies the lens of controversies to explore tensions in the interactions among different actors engaged in employee-driven innovation (EDI) in the Danish public healthcare. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with innovation executives and consultants, non-clinical professionals with managerial responsibilities, and clinical professionals. In addition, observation and document
Popular Abstract in Swedish Förekomst av fetma och typ 2 diabetes ökar i Sverige, liksom globalt. Över 360 miljoner människor har diabetes och prognosen för år 2030 är drygt 550 miljoner (IDF 2011). Att arbeta med förebyggande åtgärder för att minska denna utveckling är därför nödvändigt. Något som har stor betydelse för hälsan är vilken typ av mat vi väljer att äta och dess näringsmässiga kvaliteRe-occurring hyperglycaemic episodes promote subclinical low-grade inflammation and CVD in type 2 diabetes, emphasising the therapeutic role of tight blood glucose regulation. A tight blood glucose regulation is probably beneficial also in healthy subjects and mild elevations in postprandial glycaemia and triglycerides are associated with impaired flow-mediated dilation and increased markers of ox
Popular Abstract in Swedish I naturen finns en närmast oändlig variation av biologiska partiklar i storleksordningen 100 nanometer till 10 mikrometer. Bland dessa kan man bland annat finna; eukaryota celler som genom ordnad samverkan bygger upp flercelliga organismer, prokaryota celler vilka lever som solitära organismer såsom olika bakterier eller jästsvamp, och viruspartiklar vilka likt parasiteHerein a method that uses acoustically resonating glass capillaries and enables non-contact capture of micron-sized bioparticles, i.e. acoustic trapping, is described. A miniaturized ultrasonic transducer is used to locally actuate a cross-sectional resonance in the capillary. A 2000×200 µm2 capillary is typically operated around a resonance frequency of 4-MHz. Optimal design of the transducer for
Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med den här licentiatuppsatsen är dels att beskriva äldre människors intresse av och möjligheter till att använda TV:n till annat än traditionellt TV-tittande, dels att beskriva olineariteterna i den designprocess i vilken detta arbete ägde rum. Konceptet ”Den utsträckta TV:n” utvecklades och provades (av äldre människor, deras anhöriga och personal) i en ny våThe aim of this licentiate thesis is twofold: 1) to describe old people’s interest in and prospects of using the television for something other than traditional TV viewing, and 2) to describe the nonlinearities in the design process in which this research was performed. A concept called The Extended TV was developed and tested (by old people, their relatives and care workers) in a new nursing home
The Swedish retail landscape is currently undergoing a transformative change with increased digitalization and a rapidly growing e-commerce sector, which creates both opportunities and challenges. The development towards omnichannel commerce creates a more complex customer journey and results in complex environmental challenges. E-commerce deliveries to consumers, in particular, pose a complex soc

This study explores how newly graduated employees experience assigned mentorship in relation to other workplace support during their transition from higher education into professional roles. Drawing on organizational socialization, mentorship, and developmental network perspectives, the study examines how support is navigated, assessed and used during organizational entry. The study adopts a qual
Growing research on social capital and health has fuelled the debate on whether there is a place effect on health. A central question is whether health inequality between places is due to differences in the composition of people living in these places (compositional effect) or differences in the local social and physical environments (contextual effects). Despite extensive use of multilevel approa
