Joint consideration of inventory and shipment decisions is an important aspect of obtaining economically and environmentally sustainable distribution systems. We consider this issue in the context of a one-warehouse-multiple-retailer inventory system with quantity-based shipment consolidation to groups of nonidentical retailers facing Poisson demand. The system is centralized, with free informatio

In this study, a narrative-based language intervention (NBLI) is evaluated in children with HL based on selected narrative outcome measures important for telling and retelling stories. Nine Danish children with slight to severe sensorineural HL in the age range of 4;11–8;8 years participated. The study had a single-arm early efficacy design. The NBLI consisted of four parts: (1) warm-up activity,

This chapter introduces the fundamental topics explored in the anthology; the diverse, and constantly changing, role of transnational feminism as a theoretical and political agenda within social theory more generally, and within gender studies more specifically, and the other role of feminist transnational struggles in the creation of scholarships of hope. The chapters of the anthology are present

Master implementation of the techniques of flow cytometry in diagnosing complex haematological diseases and malignancies in patients, worldwide. Featuring World Health Organization recommendations on pre-analytical steps, instrument settings and panel construction, this invaluable manual offers invaluable support for those researching, practising and analyzing the cause of hematological malignanci

Multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) is one of the essential ancillary methods in bone marrow (BM) investigation of patients with cytopenia and suspected myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). MFC can also be applied in the follow-up of MDS patients undergoing treatment. This document summarizes recommendations from the International/European Leukemia Net Working Group for Flow Cytometry in Myelodysplasti

Sex differences in lifespan are ubiquitous across the tree of life and exhibit broad taxonomic patterns that remain a puzzle, such as males living longer than females in birds and vice versa in mammals. The prevailing unguarded X hypothesis explains sex differences in lifespan by differential expression of recessive mutations on the X or Z chromosome of the heterogametic sex, but has only received

In this paper, we focus on the design of the transmit waveforms of a frequency diverse array (FDA) in order to improve the output signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) in the presence of signal-dependent mainlobe interference. Since the classical multi-carrier matched filtering-based FDA receiver cannot effectively utilize the waveform diversity of FDA, a novel FDA receiver framework base

Utilization of spontaneous polarization electric field of ferroelectric materials to realize the spatial separation and fast transfer of photogenerated charges has been regarded as a promising strategy to fabricate highly efficient photocatalysts. Herein, a novel heterostructure is constructed by coupling potassium poly(heptazine imide) (K-PHI) with ferroelectric BaxSr1-xTiO3 (BxST) through a faci

Permanent deformation is the primary failure mode for the asphalt concrete (AC) pavement in urban environment. It is mainly caused by a combination of heavy traffic load, low vehicle speed and channelised traffic. A rut prediction model would therefore be a valuable tool for planning maintenance scheduling and selecting an appropriate asphalt material. This study uses the PEDRO (Permanent deformat

This article introduces the Framework for Integrating Rights and Equality (FIRE): a transdisciplinary framework that builds synergies between human rights-based (HRBA) and gender equality approaches to disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA). It describes how FIRE has been developed, tested and refined over the course of a five-year regional learning and technical coopera

There have been significant advances in the field of nanofluidics, and novel technologies such as single-cell analysis have been demonstrated. Despite the evident advantages of nanofluidics, fluid control in nanochannels for complicated analyses is extremely difficult because the fluids are currently manipulated by maintaining the balance of driving pressure. To address this issue, the use of valv

Aim: The use of pulmonary vasodilator therapy in children born preterm is largely unknown. Our aim was to map prescription patterns in children with bronchopulmonary dysplasia in Sweden. Methods: This was a descriptive national registry-based study of children <7 years who had been prescribed a pulmonary vasodilator during 2007–2017, were born preterm and classified as having bronchopulmonary dysp

Objectives:This thesis aims to provide an overview of the epidemiology of AAV in southern Sweden, to evaluate different classification criteria in AAV. In addition we study if infection is a risk factor for later development of AAV comparing patients with AAV with a matched population cohort and to examine the occurrence of severe infections as an outcome in AAV. Methods:All adult patients diagnos

Future global temperature change will have significant effects on society and ecosystems. Earth system models (ESM) are the primary tools to explore future climate change. However, ESMs have great uncertainty and often run at a coarse spatial resolution (usually about 2°). Accurate high-spatial-resolution temperature dataset are needed to improve our understanding of temperature variations and for

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common chronic neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by symptoms of inattention, overactivity, and/or impulsiveness. The prevalence of ADHD varies in different settings and there have been voices raised to call for more objective measures in order to avoid over- and underdiagnosing of ADHD. Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) is a method where

Self-assembled nanolines are attractive to build the technological devices of next generation, but characterizing their electronic properties is often difficult to achieve. In this work we employ angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and density functional theory to clarify the electronic structure exhibited by self-assembled Bi nanolines grown on the InAs(100) surface. A surface resonance ass
