This project focuses on how a household in Malmö can manage a crisis situation with no electricity, water, heat and communication for 72 hours. This is due to the recommendation that we can take care of ourselves for 3 days in case of a crisis. This spring residents of Cape Town have been living with water restrictions of 50 litres per person per day. This can be compared to the 160 litres per per

During this session, we will dive into two poems and discuss how poems can be used in teaching and to facilitate dialogue around sustainability.

This cross-sectional case study investigates patterns of politicisation in election campaigns of the German Eurosceptic party Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) by means of a comparative multi-level analysis. It adds to the existing literature by examining the Eurosceptic elements of the party’s campaign communication across various decision-making levels. It examines EU issue salience, the dimensi

Recycling of livestock manure in agroecosystems has been shown to enhance the sustainability of food production and reduce adverse environmental consequences from intensive crop-livestock systems. However, the effect of manure application on the associations between soil quality and ecosystem multifunctionality still remains poorly understood. Hereby, we used a five-year field experiment to invest

Snapshot Spectral Imaging enables the acquisition of hyperspectral images (HSI) from 2D projected measurements employing specialized optical systems, such as the Coded Aperture Snapshot Spectral Imager (CASSI). Specifically, the CASSI system performs spatio-spectral codification of light obtaining 2D projected measurements. These measurements are then processed by algorithms to obtain the desired

ObjectivesCancer related pain (CRP) is among the most frequent collateral effects of cancer, with chronic CRP, lasting at least three months, affecting >40% of cancer survivors.Evidence based treatments, including pain-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy(CBT) are available, but it appears that cancer patients/survivors are often poorlyinformed about CRP or the potential benefits of CBT for such p

Rapid advances in genomics have opened unprecedented possibilities to explore the mutational landscapes in malignant diseases, such as B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). This disease is manifested as a severe defect in the production of normal blood cells due to the uncontrolled expansion of transformed B-lymphocyte progenitors in the bone marrow. Even though classical genetics identifie

BACKGROUND: Bartonella schoenbuchensis is suspected to cause deer ked dermatitis and febrile diseases in humans. Deer keds (Lipoptena cervi), which infest cervids (e.g., roe deer, fallow deer), are discussed as potential vectors for B. schoenbuchensis.METHODS: We analyzed the seroprevalence of anti-B. schoenbuchensis immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies in sera of forest workers (FW; n = 82) compared

Food safety is a public health concern worldwide due to an increased morbidity and mortality risk associated with the outbreak of food-borne diseases. This study aimed to assess knowledge, attitude, and food safety practices (KAP) among university students in northern Tanzania. This is interesting because it allows data to be collected for creating awareness on safety, sanitation, and quality of f

Background: Deep learning (DL)-based organ segmentation is increasingly used in radiotherapy. While methods exist to generate voxel-wise uncertainty maps from DL-based auto-segmentation models, these maps are rarely presented to clinicians. Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of DL-generated uncertainty maps on experienced radiation oncologists during the manual correction of DL-based

Personality traits (e.g., the Big Five) shape human behavior, decision-making, and life outcomes. Evidence from various countries suggests that these traits are not randomly distributed but follow systematic regional patterns, fueling interest in their geographical variation. We analyze N = 22,225 geo-coded personality assessments, aggregated at regional levels. Using Hot Spot analysis (Getis-Ord

This paper investigates resilient performance of Air Traffic Management with future Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based tools. A case study was performed on an early prototype of an AI-enabled Flight Information Service (FIS) tool, using a survey of flight instructors and air traffic controllers, and a focus group with controllers with flying experience. The study focused on what characterizes good

Functional data analysis is typically performed in two steps: first, functionally representing discrete observations, and then applying functional methods to the so-represented data. The initial choice of a functional representation may have a significant impact on the second phase of the analysis, as shown in recent research, where data-driven spline bases outperformed the predefined rigid choice

BACKGROUND: The communication process of preparing patients and families facing progressive neurodegenerative diseases for future illness has not been empirically elucidated; the goal of this qualitative study was to explore neurology interdisciplinary health professionals' communication experiences, including current approaches, facilitators, and challenges.METHODS: Three focus groups were conduc

Heart failure is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality1,2. Elevated intracardiac pressures and myocyte stretch in heart failure trigger the release of counter-regulatory natriuretic peptides, which act through their receptor (NPR1) to affect vasodilation, diuresis and natriuresis, lowering venous pressures and relieving venous congestion3–8. Recombinant natriuretic peptide infusions were deve

Bacteria have a remarkable ability to adapt to different environments. When bacteria encounter stress that causes macromolecular damage in the cell, leading to a suboptimal performance of cell metabolism, they can elicit an adaptive response. In this thesis Bacillus subtilis is used as the primary model organism to study bacterial adaptation to oxygen limitation, reactive nitrogen species and disu

The state-of-the-art in development tools today provides users with a large number of both syntactic and semantic services, such as syntax highlighting, name completions and refactorings. Preferably, every language should have sophisticated tool support, but unfortunately, the manual task of tool development is both time-consuming and error-prone, making it too costly for small language communitie
