We propose a novel hybrid approach that integrates Neural Ordinary Differential Equations (NODEs) with Bayesian optimization to address the dynamics and parameter estimation of a modified time-delay-type Susceptible-Infected-Removed (SIR) model incorporating immune memory. This approach leverages a neural network to produce continuous multi-wave infection profiles by learning from both data and th
Objectives: The use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is safe from a long-term perspective since there are no known cumulative risks for patients or personnel. However, the technique comes with several acute risks associated with the powerful electromagnetic fields that are necessary to produce medical images. These risks include, among other things, a projectile hazard, loud noise, and the risk
The deterioration of fibre-reinforced sprayed concrete was studied in the Oslofjord subsea tunnel (Norway). At sites with intrusion of saline groundwater resulting in biofilm growth, the concrete exhibited significant concrete deterioration and steel fibre corrosion. Using amplicon sequencing and shotgun metagenomics, the microbial taxa and surveyed potential microbial mechanisms of concrete degra
There is a growing call for comparative analyses of forest governance to facilitate knowledge exchange for the sustainable management of Nordic forest systems, addressing the needs of societal stakeholders in enhancing both the quality and quantity of forest resources. This study traces the development of nation-wide policy instruments implemented in four Nordic countries; Finland, Sweden, Norway
Even though energy-efficient technologies are well developed, the behaviour of building occupants plays an important role in the search for the optimum level of energy efficiency. In academic literature, however, very few studies have used psychological theories to understand individuals’ drivers of energy use behaviour when interacting with energy-efficient technologies. Specifically, there are n
Measurements of inclusive, differential cross-sections for the production of events with missing transverse momentum in association with jets in proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV are presented. The measurements are made with the ATLAS detector using an integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1 and include measurements of dijet distributions in a region in which vector-boson fusion processes are enhan
A comprehensive approach to ecological functional zoning in the Shenzhen region of China is presented in this study. Through the integration of advanced geospatial analysis tools, multiple data sources, and sophisticated statistical techniques, different ecological functions have been identified and categorized based on a comprehensive set of indicators and spatial analysis techniques. The three-l
A partial ichthyosaur skeleton from the Toarcian (Lower Jurassic) bituminous shales of the ‘Schistes Carton’ unit of southern Luxembourg is described and illustrated. In addition, associated remnant soft tissues are analyzed using a combination of imaging and molecular techniques. The fossil (MNHNL TV344) comprises scattered appendicular elements, together with a consecutive series of semi-articul
Background: Non-β-hemolytic streptococci (NBHS) cause blood stream infections (BSI) which can be complicated by infective endocarditis (IE). To stratify the risk for IE in NBHS BSI and to guide the use of echocardiography in this condition, two risk stratification systems (RSSs), the HANDOC score (HANDOC), and the Chamat-Hedemand algorithm (CH-A) have been developed.Objectives: To compare the sens
Purpose: Incisional hernia (IH) after open liver surgery is a well-recognized complication. The clinical importance of IH detected on computed tomography in terms of objective abdominal wall discomfort and impairment of quality of life (QoL) is less well known. Methods: Patients who underwent curative surgery for colorectal liver metastases between 2010 and 2015 at a single center and were alive i
With calls for increased greenery in cities to safeguard biodiversity and its associated benefits to humans, urban vegetation must be managed carefully and efficiently. It is time to change paths from current spurious attempts to manufacture resilience and instead usher in evidence-based urban greening to secure ecosystems for the future.
Childhood cancer aetiology is poorly understood and is considered to originate in utero and early postnatal life. In this study, we investigated perinatal characteristics as potential risk factors by performing a population-based case-control study, including 1340 cancer cases diagnosed < 19y and born between 1989–2021 in southern Sweden, and 13400 controls matched by sex, year, and municipality o
This thesis analyses how welfare, entitlement and welfare subjects are discursively constructed in the policy process surrounding the proposed qualification requirements for social insurance benefits and financial assistance, as part of the Swedish social benefit reform, ‘bidragsreformen’. Drawing on Norman Fairclough’s three-dimensional model of discourse analysis, the study examines the governme
Background: Developing new diagnostic imaging methods that provide detailed visualization of the histoanatomy of tissues and organs requires precise histomorphometric evaluation. With a particular focus on bowel, this study aimed to develop and validate a computer program for reliable and efficient assessment of bowel wall histomorphometry. Methods: A MATLAB-based computer program was developed in
Background: Local networks have been recognized for their potential to govern collaborative action toward a low-carbon future in urban areas, yet there is a need to learn more about the strengths and weaknesses of such governance structures. In this paper we assess the Local Roadmap for a Climate Neutral Building & Construction Industry in Malmö 2030 (LFM30) network which was initiated in 2018
Shifting everyday consumption from linear to circular is a key sustainability challenge, and interventions targeting households and consumers are increasingly promoted as a means to support this transition. However, much remains unclear about the theoretical assumptions that underpin such interventions and how these shape their design and outcomes. This article presents a systematic literature rev
Study region: The Limpopo River Basin (LRB) is a transboundary catchment in Southern Africa spanning South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Mozambique. The lower basin, particularly the Chókwè–Xai-Xai floodplain in Mozambique, is highly flood-prone due to flat topography, climate variability, and rapid agricultural and settlement expansion. Study focus: This study presents a climate-informed framew
Accurate mapping of aboveground biomass (AGB) in mountainous forests is essential for carbon stock assessment and ecological management, yet remains challenging due to the difficulty of linking local high-precision observations with regionally continuous coverage. To address this issue, we developed a hierarchical framework integrating local reference construction, UAV–GEDI bridging, footprint-lev
