Unveiling the actual progress of Digital Building Permit: Getting awareness through a critical state of the art review

Growing interest is awarded to the digitalization of the building permitting use case and many works are developed about the topic. However, the subject is very complex and many aspects are usually tackled separately, making it very hard for traditional literature reviews to grasp the actual progress in the overall topic. This paper unveils the detailed state of the art in Digital Building Permitt

The new explanatory objection against the fitting attitude account of value

The explanatory objection against the fitting attitude account of value states that if the properties of attitudes explain fittingness facts, but do not always explain value facts, then value facts cannot be identical with or reduced to fittingness facts. One reply to this objection is to claim that the constitutive properties of attitudes also explain value facts, for they are enablers for the va

Quality of Life among Next of Kin of Frail Older People in Nursing Homes : An Interview Study after an Educational Intervention concerning Palliative Care

One cornerstone of palliative care is improving the family’s quality of life (QoL). The principles of palliative care have not been sufficiently applied in nursing homes. The aim of this study was to investigate the experiences of QoL of next of kin of frail older persons in nursing homes after an educational intervention concerning palliative care. This qualitative interview study with 37 next of

Global maps of soil temperature

Research in global change ecology relies heavily on global climatic grids derived from estimates of air temperature in open areas at around 2 m above the ground. These climatic grids do not reflect conditions below vegetation canopies and near the ground surface, where critical ecosystem functions occur and most terrestrial species reside. Here, we provide global maps of soil temperature and biocl

Theoretical aspects on the use of single-time-point dosimetry for radionuclide therapy

Objective. This study considers the error distributions for time-integrated activity (TIA) of single-time-point (STP) methods for patient-specific dosimetry in radionuclide therapy. Approach. The general case with the same pharmaceutical labelled with different radionuclides for imaging and therapy are considered for a mono-exponential time-activity curve. Two methods for STP dosimetry, both based

Short Term Economic Evaluation of the Digital Platform Support, Monitoring And Reminder Technology for Mild Dementia (SMART4MD) for People with Mild Cognitive Impairment and Their Informal Caregivers

BACKGROUND: A randomized controlled trial of the SMART4MD tablet application was conducted for persons with mild cognitive impairment (PwMCI) and their informal caregivers to improve or maintain quality of life.OBJECTIVE: The objective was to conduct economic evaluation of SMART4MD compared to standard care in Sweden from a healthcare provider perspective based on a 6-month follow-up period.METHOD

Stenar kan tala! : Vä kyrka i klarare belysning

En byggnads och stilanalys visar koret sannolikt varit ett solitärt kapell byggt på 1000-talet. Genom dendrokronologiska dateringar har en sannolik datering till omkring 1120 också för det romanska måleriet framkommit. Två valvbärande kolonner visar sig vara av lokal Önnestadsyenit vilka har hämtats i blockterräng vid Djurröd och sannolikt polerats i Vä. Det sannolika polerverkat undersöktes på 19

En introduktion- i väntan på tåget

Den första bransch som kände industrialiseringens verkningar var lantbruket. I Kävlinge trakten förändrades lantbruket på många sätt genom industrialiseringens innovationer, långt innan järnvägen kom och industrierna etablerades.

Islet Autoimmunity and HLA Markers of Presymptomatic and Clinical Type 1 Diabetes : Joint Analyses of Prospective Cohort Studies in Finland, Germany, Sweden, and the U.S

OBJECTIVE: To combine prospective cohort studies, by including HLA harmonization, and estimate risk of islet autoimmunity and progression to clinical diabetes.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: For prospective cohorts in Finland, Germany, Sweden, and the U.S., 24,662 children at increased genetic risk for development of islet autoantibodies and type 1 diabetes have been followed. Following harmonization

Touring Tourism Enterprising : Mundane Practices of Tourism Development

Tourism enterprises play a vital role in tourism development. This has inspired scholarly and policy interest in the workings of tourism enterprises, particularly the small enterprises that account for the majority. The heterogeneity of small enterprises presents challenging terrain for scholars and policymakers concerned to understand and manage enterprise development and tourism development. Sch

Epigenome-wide three-way interaction study identifies a complex pattern between TRIM27, KIAA0226, and smoking associated with overall survival of early-stage NSCLC

The interaction between DNA methylation of tripartite motif containing 27 (cg05293407TRIM27) and smoking has previously been identified to reveal histologically heterogeneous effects of TRIM27 DNA methylation on early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) survival. However, to understand the complex mechanisms underlying NSCLC progression, we searched three-way interactions. A two-phase study w

Population-based randomized trial of screening for clinically significant prostate cancer ProScreen : a pilot study

Objectives: To evaluate the feasibility of a population-based screening trial using prostate-specific antigen (PSA), a kallikrein panel and multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) aimed at minimizing overdiagnosis, while retaining mortality benefit. Patients and Methods: Feasibility of the screening algorithm was evaluated in terms of participation, screening test results and cancer detec
