The flow and temperature fields in packed beds are rather complex but are of great importance since they will influence macroscopic parameters and the overall performance of the packed bed system. Regions with either too high or too low velocity are not preferred since they will decrease the heat and mass transfer characteristics of packed beds. The residence time distribution (RTD) is a way to as

Aim: To investigate an association between autoimmune disorders (AID) and hospitalization for dementia and Alzheimer's disease, and to study whether the risk is associated with follow-up time and age. Methods: We followed up all individuals in Sweden without previous hospital admission for dementia and Alzheimer's disease, and with a primary or secondary diagnosis of an AID between 1 January 1964

Background: Mitral valve (MV) and tricuspid valve (TV) apparatus geometry are essential to define mechanisms and etiologies of regurgitation and to inform surgical or transcatheter interventions. Given the increasing use of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) for the evaluation of valvular heart disease, we aimed to establish CMR-derived age- and sex-specific reference values for mitral annula

BackgroundIt remains unclear as to why some individuals at low risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) develop severe coronary atherosclerosis, while those at high CVD risk may remain free from coronary atherosclerosis.PurposeUsing Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA), we aimed to identify factors associated with absence and severe coronary atherosclerosis in subjects from the general popu

Purpose: To investigate the impact of Charles Bonnet syndrome (CBS) on vision-related quality of life (VRQoL) in patients with glaucoma. Design: Cross-sectional cohort study. Participants: Twenty-four patients with CBS and 42 matched controls without CBS out of 337 patients with open-angle glaucoma (OAG) with visual field (VF) loss. Methods: A matching technique was used to identify control patien

Importance: Persistent disparities in mortality across countries suggest uneven improvements in living standards and access to life-extending health technologies, as well as context-specific obstacles. Studies have analyzed cross-country inequality in mortality but have not widely contextualized those disparities in terms of developmental progress relative to a frontier representing a level of mor

The Economic Dispatch Problem (EDP) plays a critical role in power system operations by trying to allocate power generation across multiple units at minimal cost while satisfying complex operational constraints. Traditional optimization techniques struggle with the non-convexities introduced by factors such as valve-point effects, prohibited operating zones, and spinning reserve requirements. Whil

Over geologic time, biocalcification – the process by which marine organisms make calcium carbonate (CaCO3) – has reshaped climates, ocean life, and seawater chemistry. In particular, the evolution of coccolithophores, the largest group of nannoplankton and today’s most productive calcifiers, transformed ocean environments and the carbon cycle. Their origins, however, remain enigmatic. This is par

Before performing 177Lu-DOTATATE therapy for neuroendocrine tumors, somatostatin receptor (SSTR) PET imaging is currently used to confirm sufficient tumor SSTR expression, but it also has potential to be used to personalize treatment by predicting absorbed doses to critical organs. This study aims to validate the predictive capability of SSTR PET in anticipating renal absorbed dose in the first cy

Context. The formation and evolution of ultra-short-period (USP) rocky planets is poorly understood. However, it is widely thought that these planets could not have formed at their present-day close-in orbits, but instead migrated inwards through interactions with outer neighbours. Aims. We aim to confirm and characterise the USP Earth-sized validated planet K2-157 b (Porb = 8.8 h) and constrain t

A hybrid assistive limb (HAL) can improve the motor performance of patients with various neurodegenerative diseases, but the efficacy of home-based rehabilitation using HAL for spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) has yet to be elucidated. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of home-based telerehabilitation with lumbar type HAL in patients with SCA. In this non-randomized open-label single center trial,

New high spin states in Mg25 (up to 13.3 MeV in excitation) have been located using the N12,p)25Mg reaction at a laboratory beam energy of 23.5 MeV. Gamma decay from 28 neutron unbound levels has been observed (24 of which are reported here for the first time) up to 7 MeV above the neutron drip line. Tentative identification of the yrast line up to (17/2+ has been made, along with an extension of

Allmän värnplikt blev i praktiken könsneutral i Sverige för första gången 2018 och i Danmark trädde ändring i kraft år 2025. Den här uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka den bakomliggande argumentation till lagändringen som medförde att även kvinnor omfattades av den allmänna värnplikten. Det görs med ett komparativt perspektiv mellan Sverige och Danmark med syfte att undersöka om det föreligger liConscription became gender-neutral in practice in Sweden for the first time in 2018. In Denmark the amendment of the law became effective in 2025. This paper aims to examine the underlying arguments for the amendment of the law that meant that women were also included in conscription. This is done with a comparative perspective between Sweden and Denmark with the aim of examining whether there are

Background: Selected patients with advanced germ cell tumors have a poor prognosis. These include patients with brain, bone or liver metastases, very elevated tumor markers or primary mediastinal tumor. High-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) with autologous stem cell support is recommended in the Swedish and Norwegian Testicular Cancer Group (SWENOTECA) guidelines in selected poor risk patients with poor r

Introduction: Despite therapeutic achievements in haemophilia care, there is still the need to monitor and define personal treatment outcomes and document results to achieve the best possible care. Hence, a need for unbiased, timely and comprehensive real-world information exists to support informed shared decision-making regarding treatment and care. Aim: To describe a medical device for people l

To gather information regarding how to best assist liver transplant recipients in improving their self‐care capacity and well‐being, we investigated their total health situation. A retrospective, cross‐sectional survey with up to a 10‐year follow‐up concerning experienced health and quality of life after liver transplantation (LTX) was conducted. The aim of this study was to provide descriptive da

Data from prospective studies on blood pressure and prostate cancer risk are limited, and results are inconclusive. Baseline measurements of height, weight and blood pressure were available in 336,159 men in the Swedish Construction Workers cohort. During an average of 22.2 years of follow-up, 10,002 incident cases and 2,601 fatal cases of prostate cancer were identified in National registers. For
