Even though energy-efficient technologies are well developed, the behaviour of building occupants plays an important role in the search for the optimum level of energy efficiency. In academic literature, however, very few studies have used psychological theories to understand individuals’ drivers of energy use behaviour when interacting with energy-efficient technologies. Specifically, there are n
Measurements of inclusive, differential cross-sections for the production of events with missing transverse momentum in association with jets in proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV are presented. The measurements are made with the ATLAS detector using an integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1 and include measurements of dijet distributions in a region in which vector-boson fusion processes are enhan
A comprehensive approach to ecological functional zoning in the Shenzhen region of China is presented in this study. Through the integration of advanced geospatial analysis tools, multiple data sources, and sophisticated statistical techniques, different ecological functions have been identified and categorized based on a comprehensive set of indicators and spatial analysis techniques. The three-l
Given the negative consequences of bullying, it is important to identify teacherapproaches and to what degree students trust that their teachers can manage the class. Thus, this experimental study examined whether students’ trust in their teacher’s ability to manage the class would be positively associated with defending victims and negatively associated with pro-bullying and passive bystanding. 2
A partial ichthyosaur skeleton from the Toarcian (Lower Jurassic) bituminous shales of the ‘Schistes Carton’ unit of southern Luxembourg is described and illustrated. In addition, associated remnant soft tissues are analyzed using a combination of imaging and molecular techniques. The fossil (MNHNL TV344) comprises scattered appendicular elements, together with a consecutive series of semi-articul
Malmö University uses ECTS grades (A to Fail) in parallel with Swedish grades for some courses. During 2008 and 2009 I was course director for the course Masters Thesis at the International Masters Programme for Public Health at Malmö University, Sweden. After our first examination it was evident that lecturers from different backgrounds had widely disparate grading criteria and the same quantitat
The nucleotide sequence coding for the beta chain of murine C3 was determined from cloned cDNA and genomic DNA fragments. Sonicated subfragments were randomly inserted into the bacteriophage M13 and sequenced using the dideoxynucleotide technique. Each nucleotide was sequenced on average six times in these studies. The derived amino acid sequence includes a signal peptide and a tetra-arginine sequ
In the international legal literature, it is commonplace to talk about the law of state responsibility as secondary rules of law. The terminology emphasises that in some way or another the law of state responsibility is different from other rules of the international legal system – what international legal scholars refer to as primary rules of law. The present essay inquires into the soundness of
AimLong-term cognitive decline after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is still poorly understood. This study describes long-term observer-reported cognitive decline among Danish OHCA survivors, including differences in years since the event, and investigates characteristics and self-reported outcomes associated with observer-reported cognitive decline.MethodsAdults who survived an OHCA from 2AimLong-term cognitive decline after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is still poorly understood.

This paper investigates and discusses four instruments found in a sixteenth century Spanish book of navigation. The night clock is a rather standard application of similar instruments known since the fourteenth century in Europe. Cortés’ explanation of the causes of the deviation of the magnetic and geographical north is quite original. His instrument to correct for that the Polaris deviates from
Finding reliable photocatalysts capable of driving reactions using only sunlight is more needed than ever. A variety of strategies to harvest sunlight and convert it into chemical energy have been successfully utilized such as synthesizing nanostructures, using metal nanoparticles, doping, and others. In this work, we discover a facile way to anchor CuS nanoplatelets on 2D MoS2 by the solvothermal
The minority stress model has become a well-used framework to explain and analyse health among LGBTQ people, and specifically among transgender and gender-diverse people (TGD), when it is sometimes called ‘the gender minority stress model’. Scholars have argued the need for critical discussions about some of the assumptions underlying the gender minority stress model and how it has been used and d
Background: To avoid causing a thromboembolic event in patients undergoing catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF), patients are treated with oral anticoagulants (OAC) prior to the procedure. Despite being on anticoagulants, some patients develop a left atrial appendage thrombus (LAAT). To exclude the presence of LAAT, transesophageal ultrasound (TEE) is performed in all patients prior to t
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) occurs more often among individuals with diabetes. The aim of this retrospective observational registry study was to examine whether individuals with diabetes and CTS are treated surgically to the same extent as individuals with CTS but without diabetes. Data on CTS diagnosis and surgery were collected from the Skåne Healthcare Register (SHR). A total of 35,105 individ
The xylonate was bioproduced directly from lignocellulosic residues, and the application properties of crude xylonate powder were investigated with a promising potential as a bio-based concrete water reducer. The overall integrated process was evaluated on the view of mass balance and techno-economic analysis using Aspen Plus modeling. 56 g/L of calcium xylonate (XA-Ca) can be obtained within 8 h
Objective: North Sea Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy (NS-PME) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by ataxia, myoclonus and seizures with a progressive course. Although the cause of NS-PME is known, namely a homozygous mutation in the GOSR2 gene (c.430 G>T; p. Gly144Trp), sufficient treatment is lacking. Despite combinations of on average 3–5 anti-seizure medications (ASMs), debilitating myoclo
