White noise has been proposed to enhance cognitive performance in children with ADHD, but findings are inconsistent, and benefits vary across tasks and individuals. Such variability suggests that diagnostic comparisons may overlook meaningful developmental differences. This exploratory study examined whether developmental characteristics and subjective evaluations of auditory and visual white nois
Nonvolatile memory devices based on ferroelectric HfxZr1-xO2 (HZO) show great promise for back-end integrable storage and for neuromorphic accelerators, but their adoption is held back by the inability to scale down the HZO thickness without violating the strict thermal restrictions of the Si CMOS back end of line. In this work, we overcome this challenge and demonstrate the use of nanosecond puls
Climate change is an important topic for a lot of people and the usage of art to draw attention towards the issue is not a novel idea. Each art piece has had a different approach to, not only increase awareness but to also portray climate change. The expressions vary depending on who made the art piece, the context of its creation and similar parameters. Globally, this has been done since at least
With the rapid development of Digital Rights Management (DRM), Technological Protection Measures (TPM) and Rights Management Information (RMI) as components of DRM have become essential tools for safeguarding copyright. The WIPO Copyright Treaty (WCT) and the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty (WPPT) were the first international agreements to establish protections for TPM and RMI. Subsequentl
The purpose of this project was to find estimates of the operational releases of 14C and 3H from new SMR technology that is being considered in Sweden, namely the Rolls-Royce SMR and the GE-Hitachi BWRX-300. To achieve this goal, models of the reactors of interest were made in the continuous-energy Monte-Carlo neutron and photon transport code Serpent, where the production of 14C and 3H could then
Three searches for the direct production of τ-sleptons or charginos and neutralinos in final states with at least two hadronically decaying τ-leptons are presented. For chargino and neutralino production, decays via intermediate τ-sleptons or W and h bosons are considered. The analysis uses a dataset of pp collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1, recorded with the ATLAS de
ObjectivesThis study investigates the impact of transitioning from restricted to 24/7 access to blood culture cabinets on blood culture processing.MethodA post-hoc retrospective study and a prospective laboratory simulation to evaluate the effects of delayed incubation were conducted. Data analysis evaluated clinical data comparing incubation-to-detection (ITD) and Collection-to-detection (CTD) in
Many extensions of the Standard Model posit the existence of heavy particles with long lifetimes. This article presents the results of a search for events containing at least one long-lived particle that decays at a significant distance from its production point into two leptons or into five or more charged particles. This analysis uses a data sample of proton-proton collisions at root s = 8 TeV c
We present new geochemical data for three Mesoarchaean supracrustal belts (Ravns Storo, Bjornesund and Perserajoorsuaq) situated north of Frederikshab Isblink in southern West Greenland for which we propose the collective name 'The Ikkattup Nunaa Supracrustal Association'. They comprise mainly amphibolites of tholeiitic basalt composition and leucoamphibolites of calc-alkaline andesite composition
The Hanseatic League, a late medieval merchant association with roots in northern German towns, is credited with the establishment of extensive economic and geographic connections and considerable impact on the development of urban culture around the Baltic and the North Sea. Its merchants, regularly crossing the Seas and settling in foreign ports, created a network of diasporic communities often
Popular Abstract in Swedish Elektriska pulser (PEF) är en nyligen introducerad icke-termisk livsmedelsprocess, som har en karakteristisk påverkan på cellmembranet. PEF-behandling innebär att livsmedlet utsätts för korta och upprepade pulser emellan en anod och en katod. Det huvudsakliga resultatet av denna process är en skada på cellmembranet, som leder till bildandet av antingen tillfälliga ellerA pulsed electric field (PEF) is a newly emerged non-thermal food processing technology which has characteristic effects on the cell membrane. PEF processing involves subjecting food to short, repeated pulses of a high electric field between an anode and a cathode. The main result of this process is the disruption of the cell membrane leading to the formation of either temporary or permanent pores
A kinetic model of the fermentative production of lactic acid from glucose by Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis ATCC 19435 in whole-wheat flour has been developed. The model consists of terms for substrate and product inhibition as well as for the influence of pH and temperature. Experimental data from fermentation experiments under different physical conditions were used to fit and verify the model.
In 1999, seven dark-bellied brent geese Branta bemicla bemicla were followed during spring migration from western Europe to Arctic Russia using satellite telemetry. For six of the birds we were also able to monitor their summer stay at the Taymyr Peninsula, and for five birds part of their autumn migration was recorded. In this article, we report on site use during summer and spring/autumn migrati
In the late 1950's the first complete translation of the Revelations of St Birgitta was published by Allhem Förlag, a publisher in Malmö. The publishers spared no pains to achieve a handsome result: a well-known book designer, Harry Kumlien, was employed; a great number of illustrations was acquired, and the quarto format was chosen for the four volumes. The result is impressive, and the Allhem vo
The respiratory gas exchange and ventilation during an incremental cycle exercise test were analysed in a group of 19 healthy, moderately fit men. Different computer algorithms were used to estimate the VO2 values where: (i) the rate of VCO2 increase just exceeds the rate of VO2 increase (DX, derivative crossing), (ii) VCO2/VO2 = 1·00 (PX, point of crossing) and (iii) ventilation (VE) increases di
BACKGROUND: Pin-site infection and pin loosening are complications that can cause discomfort to the patients. The purpose of present study was to evaluate pin-site infection, pain, and the use of medications using the XCaliber pin (Orthofix) with optimized thread and tip design, and the commonly used standard pin (Orthofix) during the procedure of hemicallotasis osteotomy (HCO).
