The concentrations of gas-phase potassium hydroxide (KOH), potassium chloride (KCl) and atomic potassium (K(g)) were quantitatively measured from the near-surface to downstream area of burning pinewood pellets by a newly developed photofragmentation tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (PF-TDLAS) technique to reveal the original form of the released potassium. The novel arrangement of the P
Objectives: Variation exists in the capabilities of electronic healthcare records (EHRs) systems and the frequency of their use by primary care physicians (PCPs) from different settings. We aimed to examine the factors associated with everyday EHRs use by PCPs, characterise the EHRs features available to PCPs, and to identify the impact of practice settings on feature availability. Study design: C
BackgroundAccurate tumor volume estimation is important for evaluating the response to radionuclide therapy and external beam radiotherapy as well as to other pharmaceuticals. A common method for monitoring the growth of subcutaneous tumors in pre-clinical models and assessing the treatment response is to measure the tumor length and width by external calipers to estimate its volume. This procedur
The last decade has seen significant shifts in the framework conditions of living and working in the academic life sciences, such as changing funding structures, increasing project-type character of scientific work and the integration of multiple quality assessment mechanisms into structures of scientific knowledge production. Alongside these changes there have also been significant transformation
Vi lever i en tid av snabb vetenskaplig och teknologisk utveckling. För 100 år sedan hade ingen kunnat drömma om de saker som helt har förändrat vår var- dag och hur vi uppfattar omvärlden; datorer, mobiltelefoner, Internet, rymdfart, våra upptäckter om universums barndom och avlägsna galaxer samt vår insyn i kvantfenomenens mikroskopiska värld. Idag står vi på tröskeln till en era formad av nanotWe live in a time of rapid scientific and technological advancement. People liv- ing 100 years ago could never dream of inventions like those having completely changed our way of life, and our perception of the world; computers, mobile phones, the Internet, space travel, unraveling the mysteries of the early universe and distant galaxies, and our insight into the microscopic world of quantum phe-
A 2015 review of external examining in the UK assessed the effectiveness of the external examining system in safeguarding academic and quality standards in higher education. The development of the Professional Development Course for External Examiners was a key response to the recommendations from this review. This chapter contains an overview of the structure of the course, the key messages commu
This paper aims to provide an overview of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on control engineering education worldwide. The authors, who are educators in the control education field from various countries across all continents, first summarize their experiences to present a global perspective on the different solutions adopted in control education during the pandemic. Afterwards, collected infor
Uncertainty analysis should be an integral part of conducting a scientific investigation of the damaging human health effects of exposure to chemicals. Sources of uncertainty related to limitations in knowledge are present in all steps of a such risk assessment, i.e. the hazard identification, hazard characterization and exposure assessment. The purpose of uncertainty analysis is to evaluate the c
Background: The Score Committee of the European Foot and Ankle Society (EFAS) developed, validated, and published the EFAS Score in 13 languages. Currently, the Danish version completed data acquisition and underwent further validation. Methods: The data were collected pre-operatively and post-operatively at a minimum follow-up of 3 months and mean follow-up of 6 months. Item reduction, scale expl
Popular science summary: Monitoring subcellular localization of Spx, YjbH, and ClpX in Bacillus subtilis Bacteria are exposed to continuous stress that causes damage to the cell. Therefore, they have developed stress responses that enable them to overcome stress and survive. Oxidizing elements is one kind of stress that bacteria have to deal with. To investigate how bacteria cope with this ki
Uppsatsen redogör för hur den digitala distributionsformen streaming förhåller sig till gällande rätt och vilka rättigheter upphovsmän och utövande artister har till denna distributionsform. Upphovsrättslagen är en skyddslagstiftning som syftar till att ge skydd åt upphovsmän och utövande artisters prestationer. På senare tid har den upphovsrättsliga lagstiftningen som en följd av det digitaliserThis essay illustrates how the digital distribution method “streaming” interrelates with existing law and which rights authors and performing artists have with this form of distribution. The Swedish Copyright Act is a protective legislation aimed at providing protection for authors' and artists' performances. More recently, as a result of the digitized society, Swedish copyright legislati
We’re living in a time where more and more evidence of our impact on the environment appears every day. A lot of resource and time have been spent in order to identify and inform about the ecological footprint us humans enlarge day by day. The realization of human impact on the environment introduced large scale research and UN reports on the subject and a definition and goal to strive after was e

The Maha Oya river mouth, located on the west coast of Sri Lanka, is seasonally closed by a sand bar formed at the river mouth due to little rainfall and thus little river discharge. A new Outlet, located just north of the Maha Oya river mouth, was created by the 2004 tsunami. The Outlet remains open all year because of its location in the lee of an offshore breakwater. When the Maha Oya river mou

Skatteflykt har under en lång period varit ett omdiskuterat ämne i den allmänna debatten. I syfte att förhindra det oönskade skatteförfarandet infördes 1981 en generell lag mot skatteflykt, som senare upphävdes. Detta på grund av att den kritiserats för att vara rättsosäker. Lagen återinfördes dock 1995 genom lag (1995:575) mot skatteflykt då den sittande regeringen inte delade samma bild av den kTax evasion has long been a contentious issue in public debate. In order to prevent undesirable tax practices, a general law against tax evasion was introduced in 1981, which was later repealed due to criticism that it was legally uncertain. However, the law was reinstated in 1995 through the Tax Evasion Act (1995:575), as the incumbent government did not share the same view of the criticism direc
Interactive web-GIS tools play an important role in determining disaster risk assessment which ultimately result in reduction of unexpected damages, cost and saves millions of lives. Disaster management practitioners largely benefited information at their disposal about location where possible incidents are eminent, anticipate the impact and project possible outcomes to help mitigate and organize
The museum world is in a time of great change, many of the changes focus on the accessibility of museums. In Sweden these changes are becoming more apparent as the new museum law that has been passed advocates for equal museum experience for all visitors whether they have any for of impairment or not. To encourage this change a few older law and regulations that Swedish museums are also subject to
What was once called science fiction has developed over the years to be one of the most strategic technologies of the 21st century – artificial intelligence (AI) is real. The rapid digitalization has opened new pathways in Swedish healthcare, by increasing productivity and the effectiveness of care delivery as well as helping more patients in receiving better care. Yet, when fully automated decisi
