Multiplex Antibody-Detection by Agglutination-PCR (ADAP) assay was compared to singleplex standard radiobinding assays (RBA) to detect autoantibodies against insulin (IAA), GAD65 (GADA), islet antigen-2 (IA-2A), ZnT8 (ZnT8A) and tissue transglutaminase (TGA). Serum samples from 272 (114F/158M), 15-73 years of age healthy controls and 227 (109F/118M) newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes children, 1-11 y

Objective: In lymphedema management, lower limb volume is commonly assessed by circumference measurementevery 4th cm which is however time-consuming. The aim of this study is to evaluate the agreement between volumemeasurements derived from circumference measurements every 4th cm (V4) with every 8th cm (V8) and every 12th cm(V12) in patients with lower limb lymphedema (LLL) and to determine the te

Although it is advocated that end-users are engaged in developing evidence-based injury prevention training to enhance the implementation, this rarely happens. The ‘Implementing injury Prevention training ROutines in TEams and Clubs in youth Team handball (I-PROTECT)’ uses an ecological participatory design incorporating the perspectives of multiple stakeholders throughout the project. Within the

Background:The assessment of lower limb volume by circumferential measurements every 4th cm along the limb is common inlymphedema management. In recent years, also measurements of local tissue water by Tissue Dielectric Constant (TDC) of the skinusing a MoistureMeterD have been applied more frequently. There are very few studies assessing the reliability of these methods.Aim of the work: To evalua

PurposeStrategies for industrial packaging selection play an important part to maximise the potential of logistics systems and supply chains’ performance. The purpose of this paper is to gather and analyse the relevant studies for industrial packaging selection, and present an overview of the knowledge on the topic. The paper frames the research in a way that both researchers and industrial practi

We present a systematic comparison of four resins for nanoimprint intermediate polymer stamps, the standard IPS material, OrmoStamp and two new polymers GMN-PS90 (foil) and GMN-PS40 (liquid). The new polymers are based on acrylated silane and offer sufficiently high Young’s modulus and low shrinkage to provide good me­ chanical stability during the imprint process of well-separated structures. No

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to analyse the impact of six energy consumption factors (unsold products, product returns, packaging, freight transport, passenger transport and buildings) on the total energy consumption in three types of distribution channels for e-commerce and conventional trade.Design/methodology/approachThe study uses a quantitative calculation model where input data for th

PurposeLonger and heavier road freight vehicles, so called High Capacity Vehicles (HCVs) are likely to be implemented by the Swedish government in the near future. This paper analyses the effects on tonne-kilometres, vehicle-kilometres, CO2 and socio-economics of three possible implementation strategies (HCVs on all roads, a designated road network, a designated road network with km-based truck ch

Purpose of this paperCurrent literature on packaging logistics acknowledges trade-offs in supply chains for packed products, but it is less effective in explaining the different characteristics of various trade-offs and the complexity of managing these trade-offs. Grounded in paradox theory, the purpose of this paper is to increase the understanding of the role of packaging (systems) in sustainabl

Existing research on how to organise packaging development is scarce and superficial, in particular advantages as well as disadvantages of organisational designs are not well understood. As a means to break new grounds regarding these advantages and disadvantages, the purpose of this paper is to apply a paradox approach to identify, categorise and describe paradoxes inherent in different ways of o

Design can be tricky for qualitative researchers who want to use observations. In the academic world we are often asked to have linear ambitions: proposals, applications, personal websites and presentations. But good practice in ethnography means documenting social life as process, not as a box, and grasping people’s active “doing” of social life rather than rendering it reducible or machinelike.

Herein, the secondary electron emission (SEE) from 1D nanomaterials in the form of nanorods is investigated. The small beam of a 1.5 MeV +H2 hydrogen with a sub 70 nm in diameter allows studying the SEE with a very high resolution. A wide range of nanomaterials from various laboratories are studied, including thin ZnO and ZnO/GaN nanostructures grown on 1 μm thick Si3N4 membranes and thick InP, Ga

Finding the probability that a stochastic system stays in a certain region of its state space over a specified time -- a long-standing problem both in computational physics and in applied and theoretical mathematics -- is approached through the extended and multivariate Rice formula. In principle, it applies to any smooth process multivariate both in argument and in value given that efficient numeFinding the probability that a stochastic system stays in a certain region of its state space over a specified time—a long-standing problem both in computational physics and in applied and theoretical mathematics—is approached through the extended and multivariate Rice formula.
