Buildings are responsible for approximately 30% of global energy use, with HVAC systems accounting for 40% of that demand. Among these, data centers have become significant energy consumers, requiring highly efficient and stable cooling solutions. This project aims to explore data-driven control methods to improve the energy efficiency of data center cooling systems as well as reduce the effort an
China's rapid growth in electricity demand intensifies the twin challenges of water conservation and carbon reduction in a system where production and consumption are spatially mismatched. We develop a novel evaluation framework to quantify how electricity generation and interprovincial transmission redistribute “virtual” water and carbon. The method integrates national water/carbon footprints by
Att sluta begå brott handlar inte enbart om förändrade handlingar, utan också om hur individer omformulerar vem de är. Denna avhandling analyserar hur unga personer med erfarenhet av kriminalitet konstruerar och förhandlar sina identiteter i berättelser om brottsdebut, fortsatt brottslighet och upphörande med brott. Avhandlingen behandlar tre centrala frågor: (1) Vilka innehållsmässiga komponenterIn this thesis I explore how young people with a criminal record choose to construct and negotiate their identities in narratives about debut offences, re-offending, and desistance. I address three key questions: (1) What content-related components are central to young people’s narratives of desistance? (2) What linguistic and cultural resources do young people draw on to present themselves as cre
Microsoft Word - ASG Gender and conflict 2018-2019 ENG.docx ASG Gender & Conflict Recent political conflicts in areas such as Syria, South Sudan, and Myanmar have had a tremendous effect on civilians. The number of displaced individuals today is the largest in history, surpassing even the devastating effects of World War II. Among those who are most disproportionately affected are women, children,

Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by the inability of the organism to autonomously regulate the blood glucose level due to insulin deficiency or resistance, leading to serious health damages. The therapy is essentially based on insulin injections and depends strongly on patient daily decisions, being mainly based upon empirical experience and rules of thumb. The development of a
OBJECTIVE: We sought to study changes in morphology and stent-graft configuration of descending thoracic aortic aneurysms after endovascular repair. METHODS: Twenty-three patients treated with custom-made stent-grafts were studied. The stent-graft consisted of continuous, stainless-steel Z stents mounted within a polyester graft. In the last 11 cases the stents were interconnected with 3 longitudi
This article addresses the role of the civilizing process' in the historiography of the Victorian period. The author develops a critique of perspectives that deem the nineteenth century to be an era of discipline and self-restraint, arguing that these result from the hegemonic position of literary perspectives within Victorian Studies and their frequent reliance on Foucauldian-inspired techniques
Several risk factors for severe non-proliferative and proliferative retinopathy in type 1 diabetes mellitus have been proposed without explaining the rapid progression of retinopathy in some patients. Since GAD65 autoantibodies (GAD65Abs) are detected against glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD), which is mainly expressed in islets and nervous tissue in type 1 diabetic patients, the aim of the presen
Background: Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) has been suggested as the most promising biomarker of acute kidney injury. However, there are no reliable data on analytical sensitivity and reference limits of urinary NGAL (uNGAL) assay in pediatric age. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the analytical sensitivity and the reference range of uNGAL measured in urine specimens
Pulmonary vasodilator therapy is still often an off-label treatment for pulmonary hypertension in children. The aim of this nationwide register-based study was to assess patient characteristics and strategies for pulmonary vasodilator therapy in young Swedish children. Prescription information for all children below seven years of age at treatment initiation, between 2007 and 2017, was retrieved f
As part of the Virus-X Consortium that aims to identify and characterize novel proteins and enzymes from bacteriophages and archaeal viruses, the genes of the putative lytic proteins XepA from Bacillus subtilis prophage PBSX and YomS from prophage SPβ were cloned and the proteins were subsequently produced and functionally characterized. In order to elucidate the role and the molecular mechanism o

Introduction: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is associated with cognitive impairment, including verbal memory. Limited knowledge exists following memory performance in first episode (FE) MDD. This study investigated verbal memory, depressive symptoms, and relapse in FE MDD over five years, from the trait, state, and scar perspectives. These perspectives suggests that deficits in memory either pre
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction may be caused by either pressure or volume overload. RV function is conventionally assessed with echocardiography using tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), RV fractional area change (RVFAC), tricuspid lateral annular systolic velocity (S') and RV index of myocardial performance (RIMP). The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether
* Thermal limits of ectotherms have been studied extensively and are believed to be evolutionarily constrained, leaving ectotherms at risk under future climate change. Phenotypic plasticity may extend the thermal limits, but we lack detailed characterizations of thermal limit reaction norms as well as an understanding of the interspecific variation in these reaction norms. * Here, we investigated
