During the Secret War in Laos, 1964-1973, the United States dropped approximately 2 million tons of bombs in Laos. However, 30% of the employed bombs failed to detonate. It is estimated that 78 million unexploded ordance (UXO) still contaminate the land of Laos. This paper therefore aims to explore how UXO affect the possibilities for the rural population in Houamoung district to attain a sustaina

Introduction: In recent years omni-channel retailing has been accepted and used by both physical and e-commerce retailers. In omni-channel retailing different channels are integrated. An effective and efficient distribution system is becoming more crucial. The core of the distribution system is warehousing that affects lead time and logistics cost. The main challenge is to handle large store reple

Syfte: Syftet med studien är att med en enkätundersökning kartlägga dagliga aktivitetsmönster, välbefinnande samt olika motivationsfaktorer hos arbetssökande unga vuxna i åldern 18–25 år. Syftet är också att kartlägga vilket stöd målgruppen upplever sig ha och vilket värde ett arbete skulle ha för målgruppen. Metod: Deltagarna som medverkade var enligt exklusionskriterierna: Sjukskrivna, ej aktivtPurpose: The purpose of the study is using a survey to map daily occupational patterns, well-being, and how different motivational factors are perceived and experienced in the target group able-bodied young adults age 18–25. The purpose is also to map the support the target group have, and what values a job would have for the target group. Method The participants where picked with the exclusion cr

This essay is essentially an analytical comparison of economic and democratic values. The purpose of this is to understand whether or not a conflict of values is in effect, given that democratic values have been expressed as highly desirable and in need of reinforcement while simultaneously economic values in the shape of New Public Management enjoy widespread acceptance and implementation. Den

Vilka mangroverötter vill marina djur helst bo på? Stora delar av världens tropiska kuster är bevuxna av mangrove. Här vadar träden i vattnet och skjuter hela tiden ut nya luftrötter för att ta över ytterligare en bit hav. Inte så många skulle få för sig att snorkla på en sådan här plats. Gör man ändå det möts man, åtminstone i Karibien, av en explosion av färger och liv. Alger och mängder av fasEffect of habitat heterogeneity on marine epibiont assemblages associated with mangrove roots In coastal forests of red mangrove, prop roots extend into the seawater and serve as substrate for assemblages of algae and sessile marine organisms. These assemblages exhibit extreme variability on very small special scales – two neighbouring prop roots might be colonized by completely distinct assembla

BACKGROUND: Preterm birth has been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity in adult life. We evaluated whether preterm birth is associated with deviating cardiac structure and function before school start.METHODS AND RESULTS: In total, 176 children aged 6 years and born extremely preterm (EXPT; gestational age of 22-26 weeks) and 134 children born at term (control [CTRL]) were s

Background: Allergic rhinitis often gives rise to impaired quality of life and is believed to also affect cognitive function. We aimed to examine whether cognitive functions were impaired during grass pollen season in symptomatic allergic children and to relate the degree of impairment to quality of life and biomarkers related to stress and inflammation. Methods: Forty-three grass pollen-allergic

The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is the largest budget item in the European Union, but varied data reporting hampers holistic analysis. Here we have assembled the first dataset to our knowledge to report individual CAP payments by standardized CAP funding measures and geolocation. We created this dataset by translating, geolocating to the county or province (NUTS3) level, and consistently harm

Background: Non-motor symptoms (NMS) are integral to Parkinson's Disease (PD) and management remains a challenge. Safinamide is a novel molecule in relation to addressing NMS due to its multifocal mechanism of action with both dopaminergic and non-dopaminergic properties. Objective: To investigate the efficacy of safinamide on NMS and its burden in PD patients with motor fluctuations after 6 month

AIMS: Diagnostic criteria for ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) in patients with suspected reflex syncope are lacking. The study hypothesis was that patients with reflex syncope have a higher prevalence of systolic blood pressure (SBP) drops on ABPM.METHODS AND RESULTS: ABPM data from reflex syncope patients and controls, matched by average 24 h SBP, age, sex, and hypertension were compa

Objective: Develop a generic trans-disciplinary, skills-based capability framework for health professionals providing care for people with OA. Design: e-Delphi survey. An international inter-professional Delphi Panel (researchers; clinicians; consumer representatives) considered a draft framework (adapted from elsewhere) of 131 specific capabilities mapped to 14 broader capability areas across fou

Pool boiling performance of NOVEC-649 was experimentally studied on microporous surfaces prepared by an electrochemical deposition method. Microporous structures contribute to large surface roughness values and provide large quantities of cavities ranging from several hundreds of nanometers to several microns for bubble nucleation. The results show that a maximum enhancement of 600% in heat transf

Purpose This study explored the role of several psychological factors in professional quality of life in nurses. Specifically, we tried to clarify the relationships between several dimensions of empathy, self-compassion, and psychological inflexibility, and positive (compassion satisfaction) and negative (burnout and compassion fatigue) domains of professional quality of life. Methods Using a cros

I denna rapport redovisas populationstrender för 178 svenska fågelarter för åren 1975–2013. Fåglarna har räknats på vintern och på sommaren enligt strikt standardiserade metoder. Sommar- respektive vinterpunktrutter har räknats sedan 1975, i huvudsak i södra Sverige. Standardrutterna räknas också på sommaren (sedan 1996) men täcker hela Sverige. Vintern 2012/2013 räknades 130 000 fåglar av 128 artWe present the results of the Swedish Bird Survey, run by the Department of Biology, Lund University, as a part of the National Monitoring Programme of the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency. The results for 2013 include data from 580 winter point count routes in 2012/2013 (38th winter), of which 295 were carried out during the Christmas/New Year count and 273 summer point count routes (39th

It is known that human errors are the cause of most structural failures. Extreme loads or material deficiencies are normally of secondary importance. This Project has studied the human factor in the design phase; how subjective decisions, individual knowledge and the use of advance tools and codes affect structural safety and structural design. 17 Swedish structural engineers from the house-buildi
