The hotel industry's growth raises concerns about its societal and environmental impacts, prompting hotels to engage in various practices for environmental preservation, fair HR management, and community well-being among others. Previously reporting on such practices in their sustainability reports, hotel chains now feel a stronger obligation to adhere to Environmental, Social, and Governance

In the 21 century many post industrial cities have converted their former areas into cultural areas with entertainment areas, cultural schools and museums. The city of Malmö has transformed itself into a city of culture and it uses its place brand to compete for tourists, inhabitants, businesses and labor with other cities. The purpose with this paper is to find out how culture is included in the

The gut and oral microbiome is altered in people living with HIV (PLWH). While antiretroviral treatment (ART) is pivotal in restoring immune function in PLWH, several studies have identified an association between specific antiretrovirals, particularly integrase inhibitors (INSTI), and weight gain. In our study, we explored the differences in the oral and gut microbiota of PLWH under different ART

On the tensions faced by a social venture due to its rapid growth

Consumers’ ethical efforts are capped by unethical market forces. A longitudinal study of anti-consumers shows that when systemic support was removed, consumers previously fully committed to ethical lifestyles, exhibited symptoms of an ethical consumption gap, suggesting the problem lies not with the individual (gap) but with the context (cap).

Recent development of powder-bed additive manufacturing promises to enable the production of architectural structures that combine high resolution and articulation with economies of scale. These capabilities can potentially be used for functionally graded metamaterials as part of the building envelope and structure, paving the way for new functionalities and performances. However, designing such m

Machine learning techniques often lack formal correctness guarantees, evidenced by the widespread adversarial examples that plague most deep-learning applications. This lack of formal guarantees resulted in several research efforts that aim at verifying Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), with a particular focus on safety-critical applications. However, formal verification techniques still face major sca

BACKGROUND AIMS: The EAT-Lancet Commission devised a globally sustainable dietary pattern to jointly promote human health and sustainability. However, the extent to which this diet supports metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has not yet been assessed. This study aimed to investigate the association between the EAT-Lancet diet and risk of MASLD and its severity.APPROAC

Despite the fact that longevity in people with intellectual disability has increased at least as much as in the general population, there is a dearth of interventions related to ageing for these older people. Therefore, this study investigated educators' implementation strategies in a new tailor-designed educational intervention with the goal of supporting the process of ageing for people with mil

BACKGROUND: Cell blocks (CBs) are widely used for biomarker analyses such as immunostaining. Although immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues is standardized, there are multiple preparation methods and fixatives for cytology. Our objective was to investigate the effect of different common fixatives on the immunoreactivity of pleural effusion CBs with metastatic lung adenoc

Using wreath products, we construct a finitely generated pro-p group G with infinite normal Hausdorff spectrum here hdim p G : (X|X ⊂ G) [0,1]denotes the Hausdorff dimension function associated to the p-power series p:Gpi, i ε N0 More precisely, we show that hspec p (G)=[0,1/3] ∪ (1) contains an infinite interval; this settles a question of Shalev. Furthermore, we prove that the normal Hausdorff s

Titanium alloys are known for being difficult to machine. Within the groups of Ti alloys, the machinability is reduced when going from the α-alloys, to α + β, and finally to near-β or β-alloys. Uncoated cemented carbide is traditionally used for machining these alloys and finding a suitable coating to improve the performance is a challenge due to the high strength of Ti alloys and the high chemica

The marine sector contributes significantly to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and a reduction is required in the sector’s environmental impact to meet present climate change targets. This thesis conducts a well-to-wake life-cycle assessment of potential decarbonization solutions for the marine industry, aiming to identify the most promising alternative fuels and evaluate the impact of inclu

Fourteen guests from all over Europe and editors of Chemistry Europe journals met for two days to discuss trends and challenges in publishing and to get to know each other during networking breaks and a social evening. The third Chemistry Europe Early Career Researchers Meeting was held on invitation by the Chemistry Europe societies at the Wiley-VCH offices in Weinheim, Germany. It was a great su

Starch in Food: Structure, Function and Applications, Third Edition is now fully updated with eleven new chapters covering "hot" areas for starch applications, such as starch-based pickering emulsifiers, starch for structuring gluten-free bread products, and starch microspheres for encapsulation of probiotic bacteria. Sections illustrate how plant starch can be analyzed and modified, including cha

Agricultural activity is a fundamental part of most societies in the world, therefore policies regulating these activities have an impact on almost every part of these societies, both locally and globally. As a result, it covers the interest of a variety of groups, ranging from farmers to environmental groups, civil society organizations, multinational companies, and political parties, making agri

In the last twenty-five years, the influence of climate change over the lives of the world’s citizens has become a central topic of discussion within multilateral organisations such as the United Nations. The topic of policy and decision- making capacity, as well as representation of developing nations such as Small Island Developing States (SIDS) is also constant. This research is conducted as a
