Study region Irtysh River Basin, a transboundary river laying in the North hemisphere and serving as a home for around 15 million people in China, Kazakhstan, and Russia. Study focus Considering existing pressures of climate change and anthropogenic activities on water resources, this research aims to evaluate recent (2010–2022) trends in research about a state-of-the-art of the river in a matter
I retailbranschen krävs ett fokus på detaljer, och med snabba förändringar som en dominerande faktor, behöver dessa detaljer ständigt kvalitetsförbättras. I den allt hårdnande konkurrensen behövs ledare och medarbetare som ständigt tänker på organisationens behov. Problemet för detaljhandelns centraliserade butikskedjor kan vara att lyckas förankra förändring och kvalitetsförbättring för butiken i
Most modern ultrafast lasers are based on mode-locked fiber or solid-state lasers and operate around the near infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The widely spread CPA based Titanium Sapphire lasers can emit pulses centred around 800nm with durations down to 20 fs. However, for many ultrafast experiments light at different centre frequencies are required. In order to obtain other centre
Abstract Estuaries and salt marshes are important wetlands used by waterbirds during winter and migration. However, many salt-marshes have been transformed into salinas, which currently function as high-tide roosts. Since traditional salt production is no longer profitable, many salinas have been abandoned or converted into aquaculture potentially becoming less attractive to waders. In this study
Background: Both single factors and composite measures have been suggested to predict mortality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and there is a need to analyze the relative importance of each variable. Objective: To explore the predictors of mortality for patients with COPD in relation to respiratory, cardiac, and malignant causes, as well as all causes of death. Metho
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det är känt att kvalitén på inomhusluften har en avgörande betydelse för folkhälsan bla avseende astma, eksem samt luftvägsinfektioner. Detta är ett för samhället mycket kostsamt problem. I avhandlingen har studerats vissa luftföroreningar inomhus som kan bli följden av att en byggnad drabbats av fuktskada. När fukt påverkar byggnadsmaterial frigörs och bildas en rad oUnsatisfactory indoor air quality (IAQ) may result from polluting emissions that are spread from building materials such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and/or microbial components or from various kinds of human activity such as smoking. Different methods are available to limit the exposure to unwanted pollutants and improve human wellbeing and health. One goal of this thesis was to determine
Popular Abstract in Icelandic SUMMARY IN ICELANDIC Samantekt á íslensku Hlutfall eldra fólks í Evrópu sem og annars staðar í heiminum hefur aukist og þá sérstaklega þeirra sem eru 80 ára og eldri.

We reviewed all peer-reviewed papers analysing the cost-effectiveness of vertebroplasty and balloon kyphoplasty for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. In general, the procedures appear to be cost effective but are very dependent upon model input details. Better data, rather than new models, are needed to answer outstanding questions. Vertebral augmentation procedures (VAPs), including v
The clinical commissioning of beams for neutron capture therapy involves the measurement and analysis of a large amount of data in various geometries and using various detectors. We have attempted methods and considerations common to the radiotherapy field, while particular care and attention is given to the specifics of the field of neutron capture therapy. This chapter provides an introduction a
Rodent models are important research tools for studying the pathophysiology of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and developing new therapeutic interventions for this devastating neurological disorder. However, the failure rate for the translation of drugs from animal testing to human treatments for TBI is 100%. While there are several potential explanations for this, previous clinical trials have reli
Background: Measuring health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in dialysis patients is essential for clinical assessment and economic evaluation. Despite the emergence and increasing use of updated instruments, evidence comparing their performance in Chinese dialysis patients remains limited. The aim of this study was to compare the measurement properties of the EQ-5D-5L and the SF-6Dv2 instruments
Osteoarthritis (OA) and chronic low back pain (CLBP) are common musculoskeletal disorders with substantial patient and societal burden. Nordic administrative registers offer a unique opportunity to study the impact of these conditions in the real-world setting.

Many research studies have been done to investigate different aspects of environmental challenges. In the product development context, there have been attempts to reduce the environmental impacts of associated activities including the production processes themselves. As a result, various technological improvements have been made and new production processes e.g. powder metallurgy technologies have
Background: A childhood cancer diagnosis and treatment-induced somatic late effects can affect the long-term mental health of survivors. We aimed to explore whether childhood cancer survivors are at higher risk of psychiatric disorders later in life than their siblings and the general population. Methods: In this register-based cohort study (part of the Socioeconomic Consequences in Adult Life aft
IMPORTANCE: Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening has potential to reduce prostate cancer mortality but frequently detects prostate cancer that is not clinically important.OBJECTIVE: To describe rates of low-grade (grade group 1) and high-grade (grade groups 2-5) prostate cancer identified among men invited to participate in a prostate cancer screening protocol consisting of a PSA test, a 4-ka
