Research on inclusive place branding has primarily focused on residents, while tourists are yet to be addressed, except in representation studies. Inclusion is, however, more than a matter of representation. It must also consider the needs of the tourists. This study explores people with foreign backgrounds' anticipated constraints to domestic tourism. This article advances knowledge of inclusive

BACKGROUND: Accumulating studies reported that several phosphodiesterases (PDEs) inhibitors might have cardiovascular benefits.OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to explore the relationship between genetically-predicted PDEs and ischemia heart disease via drug target Mendelian randomization (MR) approach, and then examine the effect of inhibitors of identified target on the outcomes by using real-world

När en utlänning döms för brott i Sverige kan domstolen, vid sidan av straff- rättslig påföljd, besluta om utvisning. Lagstiftaren framhåller detta som ett viktigt verktyg för att värna trygghet i samhället och förtroende för rättsstaten. Samtidigt uppstår en problematik i de fall där det redan vid domstillfället fö- religger kända hinder mot verkställighet. Uppsatsen analyserar denna spän- ning mWhen a foreigner is convicted of a crime in Sweden, the court may, in addi- tion to imposing a criminal penalty, deport the person. The legislature empha- sises this as an important tool for safeguarding security in society and legal certainty. At the same time, problems arise in cases where there are already known obstacles to enforcement at the time of the judgment. This thesis anal- yses the te

Background: The Indian food industry is undergoing a significant shift towards sustainability, driven by emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI). This study aims to explore the role of AI in promoting sustainable food processing in India, based on data collected from 110 businesses. Methods: Three hypotheses were developed and analyzed to assess the adoption of AI for sustainabi

Context. While the influence of the LMC on Milky Way (MW) stellar streams has been extensively studied, streams associated with the Clouds have received far less attention. Beyond the Magellanic Stream, only four stream candidates (S1–S4) have been reported. Aims. We focus on the S3 stream, a long (~30°) and narrow (~1.2°) structure at 60–80 kpc that is nearly aligned with the LMC. Our goals are:

We present a brief introduction to the second order DWBA reaction formalism which we have used to perform the theoretical analysis of two-nucleon transfer reactions induced both by heavy and light ions. We also show an example of such a calculation, emphasizing the connection between the structure aspects of the problem and the resulting predicted two-neutron transfer cross section. The calculatio

Background: Time of diagnosis (TOD) of benign esophageal perforation is regarded as an important risk factor for clinical outcome, although convincing evidence is lacking. The aim of this study is to assess whether time between onset of perforation and diagnosis is associated with clinical outcome in patients with iatrogenic esophageal perforation (IEP) and Boerhaave’s syndrome (BS). Methods: We s

We propose the Positive Resampler to solve the problem associated with event samples from state-of-the-art predictions for scattering processes at hadron colliders typically involving a sizeable number of events contributing with negative weight. The proposed method guarantees positive weights for all physical distributions, and a correct description of all observables. A desirable side product of

Large-eddy simulations with a transported probability density function model coupled with a finite-rate chemistry is applied to study the ignition process of an n-heptane spray in a constant volume chamber with a premixed methanol-air atmosphere under conditions relevant to reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) engines. Three reacting spray cases with initial methanol-air equivalence r

Recently, many genome-wide profiling studies provided insights into the molecular make-up of major cancer types. The deeper understanding of these genetic alterations and their functional consequences led to the discovery of novel therapeutic opportunities improving clinical management of cancer patients. While tissue-based molecular patient stratification is the gold standard for precision medici

This paper assesses the potential changes in the demand for forest-based biomass for various energy purposes in Sweden in 2030 and 2050, respectively. The assessment is based on a review of scenarios and predictions of how the Swedish energy system may develop, taking into account techno-economical conditions. It includes potential changes in district heating, electricity production in combined he

The Cambrian arthropod Agnostus pisiformis (Wahlenberg, 1818) is not only a beautiful fossil animal, approximately 1 cm in length when adult, but also an extinct species unusually well-known from its ‘soft’ ventral cuticular structures. It is moreover very useful for biostratigraphic correlation and has a long research history. The species occurs in huge numbers, and in all developmental stages, i

There is a need to develop new techniques for quantitative measurement of receptors expression on particular vasculature cells types. Here, we describe and demonstrate a novel method to measure quantitatively and simultaneously the expression of endothelin B receptor (ETB) on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). We isolated cells from male rat tissues such as: brain pial, brain intraparenchymal an

Since the last decade, development efforts by academia and industry for automated driving functions have increased significantly. Also, the European research project AdaptIVe is looking into this topic. Within AdaptIVe, 21 different automated driving functions for different speed ranges and target areas have been developed. They have been developed in three sub projects (SPs), addressing different

Background: The consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), which has increased substantially during the last decades, has been associated with obesity and weight gain. Objective: Common genetic susceptibility to obesity has been shown to modify the association between SSB intake and obesity risk in 3 prospective cohorts from the United States. We aimed to replicate these findings in 2 large

Objective Bayesians hold that degrees of belief ought to be chosen in the set of probability functions calibrated with one’s evidence. The particular choice of degrees of belief is via some objective, i.e., not agent-dependent, inference process that, in general, selects the most equivocal probabilities from among those compatible with one’s evidence. Maximising entropy is what drives these infere

During thermomechanical processing of metals, changes occur in the microstructure of the material which affect its macroscopic properties. By understanding these transformations in the microstructure, it becomes possible to design the processes in a way which yields the desired properties in the finished product. For this purpose, computer simulation plays an increasingly important role.The presen
