Concrete carbonation is a prevalent phenomenon that leads to steel reinforcement corrosion in reinforced concrete (RC) structures, thereby decreasing their service life as well as durability. The process of carbonation results in a lower pH level of concrete, resulting in an acidic environment with a pH value below 12. This acidic environment initiates and accelerates the corrosion of steel reinfo
Context. To be able to investigate the chemical history of the entire Milky Way, it is imperative to also study its dust-obscured regions in detail, as this is where most of the mass lies. The Galactic Center is an example of such a region. Due to the intervening dust along the line of sight, near-infrared spectroscopic investigations are necessary to study this region of interest.Aims. The aim of
Background: Propionic acid fermentation from renewable feedstock suffers from low volumetric productivity and final product concentration, which limits the industrial feasibility of the microbial route. High cell density fermentation techniques overcome these limitations. Here, propionic acid (PA) production from glucose and a crude glycerol/glucose mixture was evaluated using Acidipropionibacteri
Design of inhalable mRNA therapeutics is promising because local administration in the respiratory tract is minimally invasive and induces a local response. However, several challenges related to administration via inhalation and respiratory tract barriers have so far prevented the progress of inhaled mRNA therapeutics. Here, we investigated factors of importance for lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-media
Remote sensing precipitation data have the characteristics of wide coverage and revealing spatiotemporal information, but their spatial resolution is low. The accuracy of the data is obviously different in different study areas and hydrometeorological conditions. This study evaluated four precipitation products in the Yellow River basin from 2001 to 2019, constructed the optimal combined product,
People living in urban and industrialized societies, which are expanding globally, spend more than 90% of their time in the indoor environment, breathing indoor air (IA). Despite decades of research and advocacy, most countries do not have legislated indoor air quality (IAQ) performance standards for public spaces that address concentration levels of IA pollutants. Few building codes address opera
Background: There has been a notable decrease in antibiotic prescribing in the last thirty years in Sweden. Little is known about factors influencing antibiotic prescribing over several years. Objective: To compare primary care physicians who, over time, reduced their antibiotic prescribing for respiratory tract infections with those who remained either high or low prescribers regarding potentiall
The present study collected a wide range of experimental data samples, including 855 records from various types of cylindrical weirs under diverse hydraulic conditions, setting the stage for an in-depth analysis for modeling of discharge coefficient. For this purpose, the prediction capability of four kernel-based methods (SVM, GPR, KELM, and KRR) and four neural network-based methods (FFBP, CFBP,
In November 2022 the European Commission launched a new regulatory framework proposal for packaging and packaging waste, EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation, which includes mandatory reuse and refill targets of packed food products. With specific focus on perishable liquid food products, such as dairy, plant-based beverages, juices, and nectars, which are currently primarily available in s
The Horizon 2020 project EU 1.5°C Lifestyles aims to mainstream lifestyles aligned with the aspirational target of the Paris Agreement. The project analyzes lifestyle perspectives at the household level and links them to studies of relevant political and socio-economic structures at various levels of government. Within this project, Citizen Thinking Labs were organized in five EU countries to expl

Inadequate physical activity constitutes one of today's most significant public health challenges in Sweden and is associated with several physical and mental health risks. At the same time, there is growing evidence that highlights how the built environment shapes opportunities for everyday physical activity. Physical planning can therefore work as an important tool to promote public health.
ObjectiveTo compare the early and midterm outcomes of left subclavian artery revascularization during thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) following carotid subclavian bypass/transposition (CSB) vs. fenestrated repair when landing in zone 1/2. Propensity score matching (PSM) was applied to adjust for baseline differences.MethodsDEbranching versus FENestrated Repair for Left SubClavian Arter
Renewable energy expansion and carbon sink enhancement are central to developing sustainable climate pathways, yet the rapid deployment of renewable energy technologies is intensifying land-use competition and increasing the need for more resource-efficient siting strategies. Solar development on former peat extraction sites represents one such approach, as it enables the use of degraded land whil
This article examines the underexplored issue of public social protection in the artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) sector. Social protection is defined as public actions taken in response to levels of vulnerability, risk, and deprivation considered socially unacceptable within a given society and polity. Drawing on a study of ASM in Rwanda, the article identifies a range of state-led policies
Metal-free nitrogen-doped carbon materials are promising electrocatalysts towards oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), yet the nature of the active sites remains under debate. Previous investigations based on ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) characterization and computational modelling studied the role of graphitic N species in ORR and suggested that these species at the carbon edges are
This paper presents a joint model of multivariate longitudinal data and multistate data with application to modeling and predicting autoantibody development in The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study. The model quantifies the risks of state transitions based on observed time-varying and non-time-varying risk factors. Based on the estimated model, a dynamic prediction
Ischaemic heart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. The common denominator for plaques causing acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is lipid accumulation, either as a lipid core or lipid pools. An intracoronary imaging device to detect lipid-rich plaques (LRPs) could therefore identify most of the plaques causing ACS and sudden death. Near-infrared spectroscopy combined with intravascular ul
