Sequential anaerobic/aerobic (A/O) treatment conditions for textile wastewater (WW) are more effective than conventional biological treatment. Anaerobic treatment is essential because anaerobic microbes can first break down complex and recalcitrant compounds, which are difficult to degrade under aerobic conditions. The simpler, more degradable compounds are then further broken down by aerobic micr
Introduction: The scapular osseous free flap (SOFF) is being increasingly used for complex head and neck reconstructions. This study examined the surgical outcomes, focusing on post-operative complications and sequelae in patients who underwent SOFF for maxillary and mandibular reconstructions. Material and Methods: This retrospective, observational, population-based study included patients who un
In this study, a solar dryer incorporating a flat plate heat exchanger to recover heat from exhaust air was investigated to explore the usability of different types of collectors in the system. Their usability was further evaluated through economic and environmental analyses. Moreover, the thermodynamic performance of the solar dryers was evaluated under two weather conditions in Nepal. Apple dryi
Study design: Prospective cohort study. Objectives: To evaluate the effects of wheelchair skills training (WSTR) for participants with spinal cord injury (SCI) during peer-led Active Rehabilitation Camps (ARC) in Poland. We hypothesized that participation in ARC will improve wheelchair skill performance and self-efficacy in individuals with SCI. We also aimed to determine demographic and injury-re
Background: Metabolic-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a novel term proposed in 2023 to replace non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with the aim of better reflecting its pathogenesis and clinical manifestations. Vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE) is an evidence-based, non-invasive imaging device used to evaluate liver fat deposition and fibrosis. It can effective
ObjectivesThis study aimed to develop and externally validate a model for predicting insufficient future liver remnant (FLR) hypertrophy after portal vein embolization (PVE) based on clinical factors and radiomics of pretreatment computed tomography (CT)Patients and methodsClinical information and CT scans of 241 consecutive patients from three Swedish centers were retrospectively collected. One c
Key recommendationsPastureland restoration must be implemented to reduce dependency oncoping mechanisms such as emergency feeding, mechanized transport andintense workloads. These coping mechanisms are increasingly used to dealwith the cumulative effects of encroachments from competing land uses,predator pressure, and the impacts of climate change on snow conditions.Vigorous thinning of dense, man
Observations of polarization position angle (θ) standards made from 2014 to 2023 with the High Precision Polarimetric Instrument (HIPPI) and other HIPPI-class polarimeters in both hemispheres are used to investigate their variability. Multiband data were first used to thoroughly recalibrate the instrument performance by bench-marking against carefully selected literature data. A novel co-ordinate
An ‘implementation gap’ between law and practice has long been noticed by scholars and practitioners of children’s rights. This chapter goes beyond critiquing such a gap by unpacking and deconstructing the very notion of ‘implementation.’ It empirically studies how India’s national child helpline, and thereby children’s protection rights, are implemented in the state of Madhya Pradesh in North Ind
Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by dopaminergic neurodegeneration, α-Synuclein (α-Syn) pathology, and inflammation. Microglia in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) upregulate major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII), and variants in genes encoding MHCII affect PD risk. Additionally, elevated TNF levels and α-Syn-reactive T cells in circulation suggest a strong link betwee
Background: Palliative care (PC) can alleviate suffering and improve quality of life. Yet, disparities persist, particularly in Honduras. Training efforts in PC for non-health caregivers have proven to reduce burnout and stress while enhancing the quality of life for both caregivers and patients. Purpose: This study aimed to explore the feasibility of a PC training program for non-health caregiver
Syftet med uppsatsen är att generera kunskap om skillnader mellan svensk och dansk förhandlingsstil. Det teoretiska syftet är att testa ifall det går att mäta skillnader i förhandlingsstil inom kulturella kluster. Med en kvantitativ forskningsansats har vi undersökt skillnader mellan svensk och dansk förhandlingsstil. För datainsamling använde vi en elektronisk enkät som vi skickade till 305 chefe
Working Mexican mothers have been experiencing drastic changes in their way of life due to the forced adaptation of their office work into a ‘Home office’ mode. The reason of this sudden change was brought by the Covid-19 pandemic which prompted governments and companies to enforce lockdowns and social distancing as measures to prevent the contagion. This pushed working women to juggle work and ho
Offentlighetsprincipen är en fundamental grundbult i svensk rätt och spelar en väsentlig roll i den svenska identiteten och demokratin. Genom mediegrundlagarna är principen grundlagsskyddade. Med anledning av offentlighetsprincipen ges ett långtgående skydd för yttrande- och informationsfriheten, vilket kommer till uttryck i tryckfrihetsförordningen (1949:105) och yttrandefrihetsgrundlagen (1991:1The principle of public access to official records is a fundamental pillar of Swedish law and plays an essential role in Swedish identity and democracy. The principle is constitutionally protected by the Freedom of the Press Act and the Fundamental Law on Freedom of Expression. Due to the principle of public access to official records, comprehensive protection is given to freedom of speech and inf
Accelerating global demand for critical minerals intensifies pressures on Indigenous territories, exacerbating tensions between extractive imperatives and Indigenous land rights. This thesis critically analyses how state-mediated institutional arrangements in Sweden and Colombia shape Indigenous peoples' participation, authority, and influence in land-use decision-making related to critical mi
Introduction: Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) may cause stress-induced transient acute cardiac dysfunction through myocardial stunning, in the form of exacerbation-triggered Takotsubo syndrome (referred to as Takotsubo stunning). Although prior studies suggest an association between AECOPD and transient cardiac dysfunction, existing evidence is limited to retro
ABSTRACT: Introduction / Rationale: The idea to facilitate development and learning originated from research engaging children and adults with profound cognitive disabilities in powered wheelchair practice (Driving to Learn). Later elaborations led to the development of the tool Assessment of Learning Process (ALP) including the facilitating approach. Objectives: To increase the understanding of t
Summary: Background: Patients with intermittent claudication (IC) need lifelong treatment with secondary prevention, including smoking cessation, physical activity, and best medical treatment. The deficiency in existing support indicates a need for new strategies to improve self-management of the disease. However, knowledge of electronic health (e-health) as support for these patients is lacking.
