performance lecture and artistic research project in collaboration with Hypatia Vourloumis presented at "Spielart Festival", Munich, "What now" Festival, London and "performance Potentials" London

Fell, from the Prescription Medicines Code of Practice Authority (PMCPA), the self-regulatory body of the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry (ABPI), agrees with our overarching point that healthcare professionals and organisations have an important role in responding to any formal sanctions that are applied by the PMCPA and ABPI.12 For healthcare professionals and organisations to

Context. Exoplanets with orbital periods of less than one day are known as ultra-short period (USP) planets. They are relatively rare products of planetary formation and evolution processes, but especially favourable for characterisation with current planet detection methods. At the time of writing, 125 USP planets have already been confirmed. Aims. Our aim is to validate the planetary nature of t

Objectives To investigate factors associated with severe COVID-19 in people with psoriasis (PsO), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). Methods Demographic data, clinical characteristics and COVID-19 outcome severity of adults with PsO, PsA and axSpA were obtained from two international physician-reported registries. A three-point ordinal COVID-19 severity scale was define

Demineralization assays, utilizing weak acids to isolate organics from biomineralized tissues, have recently been applied with increasing frequency to explore soft tissue preservation in fossils, revealing frequent retention of cells and other pliable microstructures in fossil bones. However, factors controlling long-term preservation of such labile structures remain mysterious. To address this, w

White adipose tissue (WAT) plays an important role in the integration of whole-body metabolism by storing fat and mobilizing triacylglycerol when needed. The released free fatty acids can then be oxidized by other tissues to provide ATP. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key regulator of metabolic pathways, and can be targeted by a new generation of direct, small-molecule activators. AMPK a

Inom beräkningskemi arbetar man mer med molekyler än atomer, studerar stökiometriska relationer, kinetik och geometri, interatomära eletronövergångar medan beräkningsfysik studerar mer atomer och dess kärnor, fasta tillståndet och intraatomära övergångar, oftast närmast mot atomens kärna. Interaktionerna sker på en storleksskala på nanometer eller mindre med energiövergångar som är diskontinuerligThis study presents an approach for partitioned fluid-structure interaction (FSI) applied to large structural deformations, where an incompressible turbulent solver is combined with a structural solver. The implementation is based upon two different open-source libraries by using MPI as a parallel communication protocol, the packages deal.II and OpenFOAM. FSI is achieved through a strongly-coupled

The ability of human tissue to reorganize and restore its existing structure underlies tissue homeostasis in the healthy airways, but in disease can persist without normal resolution, leading to an altered airway structure. Eosinophils play a cardinal role in airway remodeling both in health and disease, driving epithelial homeostasis and extracellular matrix turnover. Physiological consequences a

The 8B+64Zn reaction at 38.5 MeV has been studied at HIE-ISOLDE CERN to investigate proton halo effect on the reaction dynamics. For the first time it was used the only existing post-accelerated 8B beam. The measured elastic scattering angular distribution showed a small suppression of the Coulomb-nuclear interference peak, opposite to what observed for the one-neutron halo nucleus 11Be on the sam

A memetic framework for optimal inverse design is proposed by combining a local gradient-based procedure and a robust global scheme. The procedure is based on method-of-moments matrices and does not demand full inversion of a system matrix. Fundamental bounds are evaluated for all optimized metrics in the same manner, providing natural stopping criteria and quality measures for realized devices. C

Bakgrund: När Ädelreformen infördes, år 1992, tog kommunerna över ansvaret för hemsjukvård. För att bestämma vårdnivå infördes begreppet "tröskelprincipen", men det saknas tydliga riktlinjer för hur denna ska tillämpas. Det medför att distriktssköterskor brottas med att göra en objektiv bedömning för var vården ska utföras. Syfte: Att undersöka distriktssköterskors erfarenheter av att be

Tjänarinna är en kvinnlig tjänare som anses haft slavsstatus och fick arbeta 16 timmar om dagen för att kunna överleva. Deras löner var låga och deras arbetstimmar var höga. Detta är en beskrivning av ett förflutet yrke som inte har lämnats mycket utrymme i dagens skildringar av 1900-talets historiska händelser. Tjänarinna var ett yrke som utgjordes enbart av kvinnor och innebar ett heltidsarbete

Objective: Analyze the outcomes of endovascular complex abdominal and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair using the Cook fenestrated device with the modified preloaded delivery system (MPDS) with a biport handle and preloaded catheters. Methods: A multicenter retrospective single arm cohort study was performed, including all consecutive patients with complex abdominal aortic aneurysm repair an

This research concerns the influence of electric lighting on user behaviour in public squares and whether differences in people’s use of the square can be observed between daylight and darkness. Previous research on pedestrians suggests that lighting can support human needs for reassurance, accessibility, comfort and pleasure. While these findings are also likely to be applicable to the use of pub

Transport networks are crucial for the functioning of natural and technological systems. We study a mathematical model of vascular network adaptation, where the network structure dynamically adjusts to changes in blood flow and pressure. The model is based on local feedback mechanisms that occur on different time scales in the mammalian vasculature. The cost exponent γ tunes the vessel growth in t

Organisational structures in the transport sector are often complex and fragmented, with different authorities responsible for different stages of a traveller’s journey. In such circumstances, collaboration across organisationalboundaries is required to facilitate intermodal journeys. This paper aims to provide empirically grounded insights into collaboration in transport planning, extending the l

Background and aim – Circular Economy (CE) aims to reduce consumption by retaining value in the system. While several hierarchical frameworks exist for value retention in general CE, the building context is still missing an established hierarchy. This viewpoint paper outlines a hierarchy of circular business models in the building context. Methods / Methodology – This viewpoint paper builds on exi

Buildings and cities are increasingly being reconfigured and re-imagined by flows of data. Smart homes and cities, digitally networked infrastructure services, shared mobility programmes and autonomous vehicles, surveillance and security systems, and urban control centres are a few of the many examples of how data are emerging as an influential driver of urban development processes. The aim of thi
