The emergency department is a stressful environment, in which physicians are required to make fast and accurate diagnostic assessments amidst an ever increasing flood of clinical information, including a growing body of medical knowledge. Meanwhile, the digitization of medical health records in combination with recent breakthroughs in Artificial Intelligence is ushering in a new era of precision m

Background: Interferon-γ release assays (IGRAs) for tuberculosis infection (TBI) cannot distinguish different stages of the TBI spectrum (including spontaneously cleared infection). We investigated patterns of Mtb-specific blood mediators in people with and without TBI during tuberculosis preventive therapy (TPT). Methods: Individuals with likelihood of recent Mtb exposure, aged 15–25 years, with

This chapter examines the relationship between the United Nations (UN) and African troop contributing countries (TCCs). As a continent which has both hosted and contributed to numerous UN peacekeeping missions, Africa has shaped and is shaped by peacekeeping practices. This chapter considers African states' historical presence in UN peacekeeping operations since the 1960s and distinguishes between

Uppsatsen syftar till att klargöra rättsläget avseende tystnadsplikt och huruvida lojalitetsplikt och kritikträtt samspelar, samt hur sekretessbestämmelser inverkar i rättsfrågan. Med utgångspunkt i det arbetsrättsliga förhållandet mellan arbetsgivare och arbetstagare undersöks hur lojalitets- och tystnadsplikt samt kritikrätt påverkar arbetstagarens handlingsutrymme, vilket sätts i relation till The thesis aims to clarify the legal framework regarding confidentiality and whether the duty of loyalty and the right to criticise interact, as well as how secrecy provisions affect the legal issue. Based on the employment relationship between employer and employee, the study examines how the duty of loyalty and confidentiality, as well as the right to criticise, affect the employee’s scope of ac

This paper examines firefighter exposure to emissions during actual firefighting in building scenarios. The focus is on actual exposure, not small-scale lab tests, to identify research gaps in light of the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classification of firefighting as an occupation with a heightened risk for certain types of cancer. The work is based on a systematic literatur

Bekämpningen av penningtvätt utgör ett centralt samhällsintresse inom Europeiska unionen och har gett upphov till ett omfattande regelverk som ställer långtgående krav på att verksamhetsutövare behandlar och lagrar personuppgifter. Samtidigt har skyddet för den personliga integriteten stärkts genom EU:s allmänna dataskyddsförordning (GDPR). Regelverken är inte direkt motstridiga, men förutsätter eThe fight against money laundering constitutes a central public interest within the European Union and has resulted in an extensive regulatory framework imposing far-reaching obligations on obliged entities to process and retain personal data. At the same time, the protection of personal privacy has been strengthened through the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Although these regulato

BACKGROUND: Toll-like receptors enable the host to recognize a large number of pathogen-associated molecular patterns such as bacterial lipopolysaccharide, viral RNA, CpG-containing DNA and flagellin. Toll-like receptors have also been shown to play a pivotal role in both innate and adaptive immune responses. The role of Toll-like receptors as a primary part of our microbe defense system has been

High-throughput omics data often contain systematic biases introduced during various steps of sample processing and data generation. As the source of these biases is usually unknown, it is difficult to select an optimal normalization method for a given data set. To facilitate this process, we introduce the open-source tool "Normalyzer". It normalizes the data with 12 different normalization method

In the recently completed and formally ratified new series and stage classification of the Ordovician System, the base of the Middle Ordovician Series coincides with the base of the global Dapingian Stage. In the Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) of this stage, which is located at Huanghuachang in southern China, the base of the Dapingian Stage is defined its the level of first appearance

Complex traits, including inflammatory rheumatic diseases, have important genetic features, but most of the responsible genes have not been conclusively identified. Genetic analysis of inbred animal models and comparative genetics - the comparison of genes between different species - might help to identify the crucial genes and to investigate more directly the biology involved. Genome-wide linkage

The base of the world economic pyramid, generally called the base of the pyramid (BoP), consists of four billion people with average per day income of four dollars. While some authors suggest a systems approach to design and develop products and services (i.e. interventions) for BoP markets, a little work has been carried out in this area. Furthermore, a framework to represent interventions in the

Cities, and more importantly urban neighborhoods, are key sites of infrastructure provision with direct links to social and environmental concerns. They are increasingly seen as sites of strategic action in transitions toward sustainability and resilience, and offer big opportunities for fundamental societal change. The framing of neighborhood-level problems and their solutions, governance process

Some of the compounds used for density gradient separation of blood cells have high osmolarities at the concentrations needed to create the required specific densities. Several mixed media use a combination of hyperosmolar shrinkage and red cell aggregation to improve cell separation. Due to the characteristics of Percoll density gradient medium the density and osmolarity of the gradient can be co
