Programmes driving ELT design are discussed. The nature and evolution of circum-stellar shells and planetary discs are attractive, while the small angular sizes place basic properties, asymmetry and warps, beyond VLT capability. An ELT is neeed to reveal the conversion processes shell - disc - planets, planetary systems, Earth-like planets, habitability and life signatures. Formation and evolution

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) commonly results in injury to the components of the white matter tracts, causing post-injury cognitive deficits. The myelin-producing oligodendrocytes (OLs) are vulnerable to TBI, although may potentially be replaced by proliferating oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs). The cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1β) is a key mediator of the complex inflammatory response, and
BackgroundSepsis is a common indication for admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). Since definitions vary across studies, comparisons of prevalence and outcomes have been challenging. We aimed to compare sepsis according to ICU discharge codes with sepsis according to Sepsis‐3 criteria and to investigate the epidemiology of sepsis in the ICU. We hypothesized that sepsis using discharge codes
Cardiovascular disease in general, and sudden cardiac death in particular, have an enormous socio-economic burden worldwide. Despite significant efforts to improve cardiopulmonary resuscitation, survival rates remain low. Moreover, patients who survive to hospital discharge have a high risk of developing severe physical or neurological symptoms. Being able to predict outcomes after resuscitation f
Progress in the power conversion efficiency of solar cells based on metal-halide perovskite semiconductors has been astonishing for the past years. During their development, transient effects have been observed that gave rise to an uncertainty associated with the determination of device performance from current density-voltage (J-V) measurements. This effect becomes visible in a dependence of the
ATT PLÖJA MYCKET, LITE ELLER INGET ALLS Vi blir fler och fler människor på vår planet, och år 2050 beräknas vi vara så många som 10 miljarder. Det innebär att vi måste kunna producera mer mat på en lika stor eller till och med mindre yta jämfört med idag. En stor del av den mat vi konsumerar produceras antingen direkt eller indirekt på åkrar runt om i världen. För lantbrukare som är inriktade på vSoil microorganisms are important for climate regulation as well as for plant nutrition. In agricultural soils the microorganisms are affected by management choices, like which type of tillage that is used. Moldboard plowing, the most common tillage practice, increases mineralization which leads to soil organic carbon (SOC) loss, and may thus reduce soil quality. Conservation tillage practices inf
Background: Birds that forage while covering distance during migration should adjust traveling behaviors as the availability of foraging habitat changes. Particularly, the behavior of those species that depend on bodies of water to find food yet manage to migrate over changing landscapes may be limited by the substantial variation in feeding opportunities along the route. Methods: Using GPS tracki
Aim of the studyRates of bystander CPR are increasing, yet mortality after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains high. The aim of this survey was to explore public knowledge and attitudes to CPR. Our hypotheses were that recent CPR training (< 5 years) would be associated with a high-quality response in a case vignette of OHCA with agonal breathing, and associated with an interest to becom
DNA carries the genetic code of life, with different conformations associated with different biological functions. Predicting the conformation of DNA from its primary sequence, although desirable, is a challenging problem owing to the polymorphic nature of DNA. We have deployed a host of machine learning algorithms, including the popular state-of-the-art LightGBM (a gradient boosting model), for b
This contribution analyses the evolution of public support for the single European currency, the euro, from 1990 to 2014 for a 12-country sample of the euro area (EA-12), focusing on the most recent period of the financial and sovereign debt crisis, starting in 2008. We find that citizens’ support for the euro on average was marginally reduced during the first six years of the crisis, and that sup
Background: Preeclampsia (PE) is a complex pregnancy syndrome characterised by maternal hypertension and organ damage after 20 weeks of gestation and is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease later in life. Extracellular haemoglobin (Hb) and its metabolites heme and iron are highly toxic molecules and several defence mechanisms have evolved to protect the tissue. Objectives: W
Juvenile songbirds rely on an endogenous program, encoding direction, distance, fueling, and timing of migration. Migratory distance is species-specific, expressed as a period of migratory restlessness, for which the length is correlated with distance, while fueling is modified to meet anticipated flight distances controlled by geomagnetic cues and amount of day-light available for foraging. How d
