Carbapenem resistance caused by metallo-β-lactamases is a serious global challenge that, if not tackled efficiently, is expected to lead to millions of deaths in the coming decades. Verona-integron encoded metallo-β-lactamase 2 (VIM-2) is a bacterial enzyme that has been reported from multidrug-resistant nosocomial isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other Gram-negative pathogens. As it hydroly
Under andra världskriget fälldes tusentals ton bomber mot både militära och civila mål på marken. Förlusterna var stora såväl vad gäller antal nedskjuta bombplan och omkomna besättningsmän på dessa plan som de som blev offer för bombraiderna. Historien om bombkriget sträcker sig längre tillbaka än andra världskriget, men under åren 1939–45 förändrades förutsättningarna. Bombplanen kunde medföra al
This chapter outlines the architectural approach to researching digital politics. An architectural approach focuses on platform structures and how they mediate, and can actively affect, users’ political agency online and offline. I first chart the lineage of architectural approaches in the social sciences, from discourse architectures to digital architectures. Then, I describe the process of ‘mapp
När röken klarnar blir silhuetterna av Irans ambitiösa geopolitiska strävanden mer urskiljbara, skriver Ardavan M. Khoshnood, docent, överläkare och lektor vid Lunds universitet.The orchestrated attack by Hamas on Israel on October 7, 2023, highlights a significant intelligence failure and the menacing influence of the Islamic regime in Iran. Post-attack, the regime's involvement in aiding Hamas has been echoed globally. The Islamic regime, known for supporting terrorist groups like Hamas, has been a major destabilizing force in the Middle East since 1979. The nature of t

With the rapid advancement of autonomous vehicle technology, integrating mixed autonomous and non-autonomous vehicles that are not cooperative in vehicular network has become a significant challenge. This paper presents an innovative Autonomous Intersection Management (AIM) system designed to optimize traffic flow and enhance intersection safety in such mixed traffic scenarios. By utilizing vehicl
Connected Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) have the potential to revolutionize Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) by addressing urban transport challenges, such asAutonomous Intersection Management (AIM). However, the assumption of highly accurate positioning in most ITS applications does not align with real-life situations. While extensive research has been conducted to improve positioning accura
Introduction: Scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha) feed on a wide variety of agricultural crops and forest and ornamental trees worldwide. These pest insects damage plants not only by causing sap loss but also by reducing the plant's photosynthetic activity. This is because the honeydew they produce acts as a substrate for mold, which covers leaf surfaces. In the last decades, several outbreaks
Background: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is diagnosed based on an invasive evaluation of the mean pulmonary artery (PA) pressure. The morphological assessment of the pulmonary arteries was only recently not feasible. With the advent of optical coherence tomography (OCT)-imaging, an accessible tool allows to study PA morphology longitudinally. The primary hypothesis was that OCT distincts the PA str
Solid-state NMR methods incorporating dynamics-based spectral editing have a remarkable versatility for resolving and separately characterizing co-existing solid and liquid phases or domains in biologically and technically relevant organic materials. While 13C spectra acquired under magic-angle spinning and 1H decoupling provide atomic resolution, the signal intensities obtained with the CP and IN
QUIC is a UDP-based transport layer protocol developed by Google that boasts lower latency performance than TCP. However, different conclusions have been reported regarding its performance due to variations in targeted applications and experimental setups. This leads to our conclusion that protocol performance evaluation should be heavily dependent on the QoS requirements of the target application
Cloud Control Systems (CCSs) harness the power of cloud resources to carry out intense computational tasks, however, they face challenges in delivering time-critical control signals due to network and cloud-induced delays. In this paper, we introduce a novel framework, "Punctual Cloud", designed to enhance the timely delivery of control signals in CCS. This framework ensures that control signals a
