Wine tourism is a niche tourism product that is increasing in wine regions across the world. Wine tourism is also being hailed as a more sustainable approach to tourism due to its promotion of economic, environmental and social sustainability. Sustainable rural development is a high priority around the world due to declining rural economies. Tourism is increasingly being viewed as a component of r

BACKGROUND: Advanced glycation end product is an established risk marker in diabetic vascular disease, but its possible associations with atherosclerosis in a general population are yet to be investigated. We studied the degree of carotid atherosclerosis and its association with skin autofluorescence in an elderly population.METHODS: Carotid ultrasound and skin autofluorescence measurements were p

Political analyses of the reform period China are plentiful, and for each analysis, there seems to be another version of a “China Model” or “Beijing Consensus” for economic and social development. This paper argues that these vague conceptualizations need to be rooted in empirical observations; they need to be products of induction rather than deductive processes that reiterate the preconceptions

BACKGROUND: Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) can be associated with mutations, deletions, or hybrid genes in factor H-related (FHR) proteins.METHODS: A child with aHUS was investigated. Genetics was assessed by Sanger and next generation sequencing. Serum FHR5 was evaluated by immunoblotting, ELISA, and by induction of rabbit red blood cell hemolysis in the presence/absence of recombinant

Genetic testing has been applied for decades in clinical routine diagnostics of hematological malignancies to improve disease (sub)classification, prognostication, patient management, and survival. In recent classifications of hematological malignancies, disease subtypes are defined by key recurrent genetic alterations detected by conventional methods (i.e., cytogenetics, fluorescence in situ hybr

A dyadic algorithm for diagonalizing an arbitrary positive definite band matrix, referred to as a band Gramian, is obtained to efficiently orthogonalize the B-splines. The algorithm can be also used as a fast inversion method for a band Gramian characterized by remarkable sparsity of the diagonalizing matrix. There are two versions of the algorithm: the first one is more efficient and is applicabl

Correlations of nighttime atmospheric methane (CH4) and 222radon (222Rn) observations in Heidelberg, Germany, were evaluated with the radon tracer method (RTM) to estimate the trend of annual nocturnal CH4 emissions from 1996-2020 in the footprint of the station. After an initial 30ĝ€¯% decrease in emissions from 1996 to 2004, there was no further systematic trend but small inter-annual variations

The traditional art market is currently experiencing a digital transformation and multi-sided platforms (MSPs) for trading art are a major part of this. Much research has been done in the area of MSPs, however, there is a lack of studies in the field of starting such platforms for art. Therefore, this study aims to determine the critical success factors (CSFs) for starting an online art platform (

Iron is a micronutrient that a lot of people all over the world lack to some extent. Researching new ways to enrich food may be a part of the future food industry. One way is to enrich the crops we grow. Hence, with the help of ascorbic acid as a pH adjustor and ironcitrate, tries have been made to enrich alfalfa sprouts. Sprouting as a method is also a good way to break down antinutrients in seed

The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of wearing a light-weight ice-vest (1 kg, water) on physiological and subjective responses in fire fighter’s work. The experiments were carried out in a climatic chamber, in a container under extreme radiant heat, and during simulated smoke-diving. In addition, the physical cooling effect of the ice-vest was measured with a thermal mannequin.

Port state control plays a central role in maritime safety and protection of marine environment and it becomes more significant in protection of seafarers’ rights. This thesis integrates discussion and consideration of different legal aspect of PSC in order to present a comprehensive view on it. First, the legal foundation of port state jurisdiction is examined. It is explored through its elements

Background: The clinical and demographic variables defining the heterogeneity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are unclear. A post-hoc analysis of five randomised studies in patients with a history of previous exacerbations examined the clinical and demographic characteristics describing moderate-to-very-severe COPD. Methods: Factor analysis was performed on all continuous baseline

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the outcome of patients with suspected normal pressure hydrocephalus at 6 months and 5 years after shunt Surgery. METHODS: Seventy-five patients (mean age, 72.5 +/- 9 yr), with normal pressure hydrocephalus symptoms were included. Fifty-four patients with positive lumbar infusion and/or cerebrospinal fluid tap tests received a cerebrospinal fluid shunt, whereas 21 patients w

We relate variation in the timing of arrival by migrating birds breeding at northerly latitudes to individual differences in the prior accumulation of energy stores. Balancing starvation risks early in the season against the almost universal declining trend in reproductive prospects with advancing date is seen as an individual decision with fitness consequences. We review three studies implicating

An aqueous system containing fluorapatite (Ca-5(PO4)(3)F), (FAP) and varying amounts of goethite (alpha-FeOOH) has been investigated. Batch experiments and attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy were used to monitor the dissolution products of FAP, as well as the adsorption, and phase transformation of phosphate at the goethite surface over a period of 129

Animal migration is a widespread phenomenon that has evolved repeatedly in a diverse set of taxa. To cope with migration, individuals express a large variety of specialized behavioural adaptations, that rely on efficient sensory systems for extraction of relevant external information. Many behaviours are visually guided, such as foraging and predator avoidance, and most migratory animals possess e

For many applications a fracture is a disaster, leading to failure of the application and thus its usefulness. However, when it comes to the opening of a food and beverage package, fracture is a necessity. At Tetra Pak, food and beverage packages are produced to make food safe and available everywhere. Today, many of the packages include polymer parts, such as the opening of the packages. In the
