Background: General pathophysiological mechanisms regarding associations between fluid administration and intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) are evident, but specific effects of type, amount, and timing of fluids are less clear. Objectives: This review aims to summarize current knowledge on associations between fluid administration and intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) and fluid management in patient

Tissue damage, epithelial alterations, and intraepithelial presence of mast cells (MCs) are characteristics of asthma pathogenesis. Increased alveolar infiltration of MC populations has also been identified as a feature of asthma and other chronic respiratory diseases. The asthma associated receptor, urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR), has been shown to regulate bronchial epithelial r

This study analyses the impacts of small-scale renewable energy technologies on Colombian rural indigenous communities in La Guajira through an Energy-Water-Food Security (EWF) Nexus lens. Due to the high-water scarcity in the region, special attention lays on identifying the water-related trade-offs when increasing access to energy technologies. Recognizing the importance of the indigenous people

Purpose: To ensure a clinical translation of FLASH radiation therapy (FLASH-RT) for a specific tumor type, studies on tumor control and toxicity within the same biological system are needed. In this study, our objective was to evaluate tumor control and toxicity for hypofractionated FLASH-RT and conventional radiation therapy (CONV-RT) in an immunocompetent rat glioma model. Methods and Materials:

INTRODUCTION: Sweden has been a pioneer in the prophylactic treatment of haemophilia. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can detect small changes in joints and can therefore give an indication of a risk of developing arthropathy.AIM: To use MRI to evaluate the outcome of the Swedish 'high-dose regimen' and correlate the findings to age, bleeds, joint score and physical activity.METHODS: The study gr

In this (Danish) article, Tabita Rosendal provides an overview of China's use of Buddhist diplomacy in Sri Lanka, arguing that the CCP is utilizing Buddhist strategic narratives in order to pave the way for the Belt and Road Initiative's (BRI) smooth implementation. She summarizes the BRI's progress in Sri Lanka, China's use of Buddhist diplomacy, as well as China's Buddhist strategic narratives,

The ongoing multi-country human monkeypox (HMPX) outbreak was declared as a public health emergency of international concern. Considering the key role of healthcare workers (HCWs) in mitigating the HMPX outbreak, we aimed to assess their level of knowledge and their confidence in diagnosis and management of the disease, besides the assessment of their attitude towards emerging virus infections fro

Reducing emissions is a priority for all vessels, as global warming is accelerating, and emissionregulations are becoming ever stricter. Still, waterborne transport is the most energy efficientalternative in many cases, and in some cases the only alternative. Vessels in the maritime sectoroperate far from electric charging infrastructure, and have large demands in terms of autonomy, so tobe able t

Background. Personality is the major predictor of people’s subjective well-being (i.e., positive affect, negative affect, and life satisfaction). Recent research in countries with high-income and strong self-transcendent values shows that well-being depends on multidimensional configurations of temperament and character traits (i.e., Joint Personality Networks) that regulate the way people learn t

Objectives: The prevalence of several autoimmune diseases, including thyroid dysfunction, has been reported to be increased in patients with endometriosis. Upregulated thyroid stimulation hormone (TSH) receptors in ectopic endometrium and elevated serum titers of TSH receptor antibodies (TRAb) IgG in endometriosis patients indicates an overlap in pathophysiology. However, cross-reactivity with oth

Historically, companies have communicated taxes as a burden, as the benefits provided by governments are not perceived to be in proportion to their payments. With sustainable development becoming central in many policy areas, new discourses including ‘fair’ or ‘sustainable’ tax have become omnipresent in public talk on taxes.

Engaging with scholarship on hegemony, park history, and in particular with Sevilla-Buitrago’s analysis of Central Park as a pedagogical space, this article traces the establishment of two parks in the Swedish textile industry centre of Norrköping. These parks, bearing very similar names – Folkparken and Folkets Park – were established just six years apart. But though both parks linked “park” and

The aim of the current study was to evaluate the presence of airborne virus, specifically SARS-CoV-2, in infection ward corridors, and the size distribution of the virus-containing aerosols. Associations between virus presence and relative humidity and/or temperature in the facilities was also investigated.

The aim of this work is to investigate the presence of airborne SARS-CoV-2 in corridors of infection wards, and gain more detailed size information of SARS-CoV-2-containing aerosols. Associations between SARS-CoV-2 presence and relative humidity and/or temperature in the facilities is also explored.
