Deep learning has advanced flood forecasting through its strong nonlinear modeling capabilities. However, accuracy declines and robustness remain insufficient at longer forecast lead times. Therefore, an evolutionary deep learning model for flood forecasting was developed by integrating time-varying filter-based empirical mode decomposition (TVFEMD), sample entropy-based signal reconstruction (SE)

BACKGROUND: The Leiden group and the Assessment of Spondyloarthritis International Society (ASAS)-MRI study group have proposed definitions for structural (SL) and active (AL) lesions typical for axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) on MRI of the sacroiliac joints (MRI-SIJ).OBJECTIVES: To analyse the predictive validity of proposed SL and AL MRI-SIJ definitions in early axSpA and compare proposed AL wi

Background: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and substance use disorders (SUD) frequently co-occur in youth. Integrated, trauma-focused treatments are recommended, but evidence in youth is limited and the dynamics of symptom change are poorly understood.Objectives: We investigated within-treatment changes in PTSD and substance use, and their temporal sequencing, in a randomised controlled tria

Background: Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is an established treatment for previously unirradiated spinal metastases; however, the literature is limited with respect to SBRT as a re-irradiation salvage therapy. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis as basis for joint ESTRO-ISRS clinical practice recommendations of salvage SBRT for spinal metastases. Methods: A systematic review

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Iron deficiency anaemia is common in patients recovering from major surgery and is associated with poorer post-operative outcomes. We designed a randomized controlled trial treating post-operative anaemia with iron therapy to observe the influence on post-operative recovery.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Anaemic patients (haemoglobin [Hb] < 120 g/L for women, Hb < 130 g/L for me

Urbanization is driving cities to grow, often through urban densification. Utilising computer-based simulations executed over 3D representations of the city is imperative in addressing the challenges posed by implementing sustainable urban densifications; like ensuring adequate access to daylight and limiting noise pollution. However, since these simulations are usually resource-intensive, timecon

Herein, we present a case of severe immune-related adverse events (irAEs), myocarditis with myositis, and myasthenia gravis overlap syndrome (IM3OS) in a patient receiving an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI), as adjuvant therapy after surgery for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. An 80-year-old woman who had undergone a total cystectomy for bladder cancer presented with ptosis, diplopia, and paraly

Abstract Aim: To investigate the risk of small for gestational age (SGA) births in relation to maternal history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) across two generations and additionally to analyse maternal CVD risk based on number of SGA offspring. Methods: We used register data from 1.4 million women and 2.7 million offspring. The outcome measures were risk of being SGA in relation to maternal tota

Popular Abstract in Swedish En populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Det faktum att vårt minne förändra's med åldern är ett välkänt och väldokumenterat fenomen. Vilka faktorer som bidrar till denna förändring och hur de samverkar för att påverka vårt minne är däremot till stora delar forfarande ett mysterium. Minnesforskare delar vanligtvi's upp vårt minne i flera olika minnessystem. Dessa dela's upThe aim of this thesis was to examine the importance of environmental, non-cognitive, and person-based variables for memory performance in old adults. Study I was conducted in cooperation with the Gerontology Research Centre and the Department of Psychology in Lund. The investigation included 69 people with an age-range from 55-94 years and examined if certain personality factors could explain th

Abstract in UndeterminedCombining sludge hydrolysis with predenitrification is a promising method to remove nitrogen and decreased use of external carbon content in wastewater. The Klagshamn wastewater treatment plant plans to alter the primary settler into an in-line hydrolysis basin with subsequent predenitrification to reduce the nitrate load into the overstrained moving-bed biofilm reactor. A

It is expected that, in the future, gas turbines will be operated on gaseous fuels currently unutilized. The ability to predict the range of feasible fuels, and the extent to which existing turbines must be modified to accommodate these fuels, rests on the nature of these fuels in the combustion environment. Understanding the combustion behavior is aided by investigation of syngases of similar com
