Kidney Disease in Childhood Cancer Survivors

Chronic glomerular and tubular nephrotoxicity has been reported in up to 50% and 25%, respectively, of children and adolescents treated with ifosfamide and up to 60% and 30% of those given cisplatin. Up to 35% of children have proteinuria and microalbuminuria, implying chronic glomerular damage, after unilateral nephrectomy for a renal tumour. We are still learning about nephrotoxicity due to the

DfAM Strategic Design Considerations

Design for additive manufacturing (DfAM) is when designers seek to create a product design that takes advantage of the unique capabilities of AM. DfAM also respects the specific process constraints of the AM technology that will be used to produce the product. This goes beyond merely re-designing existing parts for AM. Re-design for AM is useful because it can yield benefits such as a reduction in

Enhancement of Steady-State Entanglement via Continuous Feedback Control

Quantum entanglement is a crucial component for many applications in quantum technology. In recent years it has therefore become of great interest to develop methods for generating, controlling and storing entanglement. In 2015, it was shown that a two-qubit engine could generate stationary entanglement exploiting the incoherent interactions with its environment. However, the entanglement generate

Monte Carlo study of disorder in electronic tight-binding models

Studier av material och deras egenskaper har nog aldrig varit mer relevant. Mycket av den teknologin som vi använder idag existerar just på grund av att vi förstår oss på de uppbyggande materialens egenskaper. Det är därför av stort intresse att fortsätta undersöka vad det är som ger material sina egenskaper och hur vi skulle kunna använda oss av det för att utveckla smartare, billigare, och mer eOftentimes solids are described by uniform, periodic lattices. In reality, however, there is often some disorder on some of the sites in the lattice. This disorder may come from, for example, there being a different type of atom or tightly bound electrons resulting in a larger on-site potential, affecting the electronic properties of the lattice. In this thesis the electronic properties of square,

Smart water monitoring for better water quality - An affordable and sustainable way to predict unexpected environmental changes of water bodies

This article discusses the challenges associated with maintaining water quality, particularly the issue of eutrophication, and the importance of technology advancements for monitoring and managing water quality. The potential of machine learning is highlighted, along with the importance of affordable and effective water quality monitoring techniques. The study aims to identify factors contributing

Organisational impact on the use of restrictive measures : The perspective of Swedish front-line managers

BACKGROUND: Restrictive measures (RM) are prevalent in services for people with intellectual disabilities. This study investigates managerial awareness of RM and the nature of organisational supports required to reduce their use.METHOD: A survey asked front-line managers and staff what (RM) were used, their purpose, impact and importance (10-item Likert scales) and what organisational changes were

Sediment efflux of silicon on the Greenland margin and implications for the marine silicon cycle

The polar region is experiencing one of the most rapid environmental changes driven by atmospheric warming, and feedbacks within the cryosphere. Under such a setting, it is crucial to understand the biogeochemical cycling of the nutrient silicon (Si) in the high latitudes, which is regulating the nutrient supply to polar ecosystems, and is linked to the global carbon cycle via diatom production. H

Från hierarki till harmoni: Resan mot självstyrande team

Chat Control 2.0 som medel för kriminalunderrättelser - En idéanalys av ett EU-förslag om övervakning

The aim of this paper was to examine Chat Control 2.0, a bill from the European Commission which seeks to combat child pornography on social media in the European Union by implementing a method of surveillance. Through a criminal intelligence standpoint using a theoretical framework consisting of Logic of appropriateness, Lawful illegality and the concept of the ideal victim we sought to understan

Exploration of Alternative Image Representation Using Signed Distance Functions

This project leverages the core concepts of differentiable rendering to find alternative representation of images using geometric primitives rendered with Signed Distance Functions. By utilising gradient-descent-based methods it is possible to find optimal parameters of rendered primitives to create high-quality reconstruction. Moreover, this research serves as a foundation for extending the princ
