Dyspnea and chest pain are major and important causes of contact at the emergency department (ED). Dyspnea is associated with high morbidity and mortality, but data on characteristics and outcomes compared with chest pain in the ED are limited. This was a retrospective cohort study of consecutive patients with contact causes of dyspnea or chest pain at two Swedish EDs from 2010 to 2014. Hospital a

From a radiation protection point of view, nuclear medicine is a complex medical specialty that includes both radionuclide and radiopharmaceutical production and patient diagnostics and therapy. The practical work with radiation sources includes a variety of procedures, activity levels, dose rates, and risks of contamination. The radiation dose to the worker is largely determined by the knowledge

Background and aims: Obesity is on the rise globally, and is a leading risk factor for T2D. However, it is very heterogeneous, with varying degrees of T2D risk within the same levels of BMI. Better classification may lead to improve outcomes of current preventive and therapeutic strategies. Moreover, by elucidating the mechanisms uncoupling obesity from T2D risk, new possible therapeutic targets m

This chapter aims to provide practical evidence-based guidance in the use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) for the design and management of authentic assessment tasks and provide a grounding for institutional policy conversations so that decisions can be influenced in a constructive learner-centric way. Drawing on the foundational principles of assessment and feedback, we critically e

Organizational ambidexterity has emerged as a research area promoting innovation for both short- and long- term success. Structural ambidexterity proposes dual structures and strategies to differentiate efforts, focusing on one or the other form of innovation. In contrast, contextual ambidexterity relies on behavioral and social means to integrate exploitation and exploration. In this article we h

Macroeconomic fluctuations affect corporations’ performance through demand and cost conditions. Incentive effects of performance-based compensation schemes for management may be weakened or biased by macroeconomic influences if management is unable to forecast macroeconomic fluctuations or unable to adjust operations in response to changes in macroeconomic conditions. In this paper we analyze the

We study the influence of tree's depth and nodes' fan-out on the performance of WiMax mesh networks. For a given tree topology, we first analytically obtain per-node delay and per-node throughput. Then among plenty of tree topologies, extractable from a given network's graph, we search feasible trees which fulfil some per-node and network QoS requirements. Since the searching space is potentially
