Up until the mid 1960s you could still find significant remains of a medieval brick house in Halmstad. Since the building was rediscovered in the 1920s, numerous speculations about the house and its owners have been presented. It has been linked to the Kalente guild as well as to the guild of St. Gertrud. These hypotheses rest, however, on very flimsy basis.

The thermal environment experienced by birds during early postembryonic development may be an important factor shaping growth and survival. However, few studies have directly manipulated nest temperature (T n) during the nestling phase, and none have measured the consequences of experimental heat stress on nestlings’ body temperature (T b). It is therefore not known to what extent any fitness cons

In central Budapest, when the city of Pest was developing, urban policy led to small plots built on all four sides mak- ing up the larger neighborhood block structures. Each small lot was centered around its even smaller courtyard, lead- ing to a myriad of small open spaces with little sunlight or activity. Many of these plots today have fallen into disrepair, becoming parking lots or unused p

Background: There is a great unmet clinical need to identify patients with thin primary cutaneous melanomas (T1, Breslow thickness ≤ 1 mm) who have a high risk for tumor recurrence and death from melanoma. Kin of IRRE-like protein 1 (KIRREL/NEPH1) is expressed in podocytes and involved in glomerular filtration, but its expression in human cancer has not yet been reported. Screening in the Human Pr

This contribution presents a new software, Collectio, which can be used for creating highly complex relational MySQL databases, or more accurately, dynamic libraries. These libraries prove particularly well-suited for texts where the material has been organized in different ways and thus represents a ‘fluid’ textual tradition, or in traditions transmitted in many languages.

INTRODUCTION: This article draws on understandings from reproductive justice, crip and queer theories to discuss gonadectomy for children and young people with gonadal variations. Gonadectomy is sometimes performed on people with gonadal variations without their free and informed consent. Some parents report experiencing pressure to consent to such surgery when their children are young. We understINTRODUCTION: This article draws on understandings from reproductive justice, crip and queer theories to discuss gonadectomy for children and young people with gonadal variations.

BACKGROUND: Impact of rectal tumour location on risk of lymph node metastases (LNM) and recurrence in early RC is poorly studied and elusive. Tumour location as a prognostic factor may contribute to optimise management of early RC in the future. The aim of this study was to investigate rectal tumour location as an independent predictor of oncologic outcome in early rectal cancer (RC).METHODS: Retr

IMPORTANCE: Stroke survivors experience changes in participation level, satisfaction with participation, and participation balance, making it necessary to have a validated tool for their assessment. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the Satisfaction With Daily Occupations and Occupational Balance (SDO-OB) in stroke survivors. DESIGN: Psychometric study. S

In transplants of embryonic striatal cells placed into the excitotoxically lesioned rat striatum (a model of Huntington's disease), as many as 60 to 90% of the grafted cells are believed to die. Caspase activation is part of a cascade of events that can lead to apoptosis. We investigated the effect of the caspase inhibitor acetyl-tyrosinyl-valyl-alanyl-aspartyl-chloromethylketone (Ac-YVAD-cmk) on

Children’s biographies are only rarely and more recently considered. In this paper, we make a case for thinking biographically about children’s relational lives. Using two qualitative case studies from research with children in middle childhood, in the UK and Sweden, we attend to the materiality of children’s biographies. We explore the way in which home spaces, possessions, family mementoes and mChildren’s biographies are only rarely and more recently considered.

One of the challenges of establishing an industrially competitive process to ferment lignocellulose to value-added products using Saccharomyces cerevisiae is to get efficient mixed sugar fermentations. Despite successful metabolic engineering strategies, the xylose assimilation rates of recombinant S. cerevisiae remain significantly lower than for the preferred carbon source, glucose. Previously,

Research comparing equal and expanding spacing schedules in relation to L2 single words is limited. Moreover, none of the existing studies has examined the learning of formulaic language. The current study aims to address this gap by investigating the impact of equal and expanding intervals on the long-term retention of L2 collocations in deliberate learning contexts. Eighty-three university learn

In the emergency department (ED), physicians and nurses make rapid, critical decisions. With the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI), we aimed to explore whether AI decision support could offer clinical benefits in the ED.

Connected to the ongoing global challenges relating to soil fertility loss and food security, there has been a recent upswing of alternative management practices (AMPs) within the agricultural sector. These methods are often focused on maximising soil health by safeguarding the below ground ecosystem and by increasing soil organic content. Consequently, AMPs tend to build resilience towards distur

Tauopathies belong to a group of neurodegenerative diseases that are characterized by the presence of neurofibrillary tangles in neurons and includes diseases such as Alzheimer´s disease and frontotemporal dementia. Neurofibrillary tangles are insoluble deposits that are composed mainly of tau, which normally acts to stabilize microtubules. In disease, tau forms fibrillar and oligomeric species, wHelpers of helpers – co-chaperone proteins and protein aggregation Proteins are one of the essential molecules that make up our bodies and the bodies of all living beings. Chaperone proteins exist as a protein ¨helper,¨ folding, maintaining, and regulating other proteins. To help these helpers, co-chaperone proteins, ¨helpers of helpers,¨ regulate chaperone proteins and help them by carrying out

The purpose of this thesis was to explore deep learning methods of segmentation, classification and tracking of objects in LiDAR data. To do this a complete pipeline was developed, consisting of background filtering, clustering, tracking, labeling and visualization. The objects that were focused on were pedestrians, cyclists, cars and animals, in different environments. Background segmentation and
