Breaking the stalemate of sustainable consumption with industrial ecology and a circular economy
Intentional cooperation and acting as part of a single body
According to some accounts, an individual participates in joint intentional cooperative action by virtue of conceiving of him- or herself and other participants as if they were parts of a single agent or body that performs the action. I argue that this notional singularization move fails if they act as if they were parts of a single agent. It can succeed, however, if the participants act as if to
Chromosomal Abnormalities and Prognosis in NPM1-Mutated Acute Myeloid Leukemia : A Pooled Analysis of Individual Patient Data From Nine International Cohorts
PURPOSE: Nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) mutations are associated with a favorable prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) when an internal tandem duplication (ITD) in the fms-related tyrosine kinase 3 gene (FLT3) is absent (FLT3-ITDneg) or present with a low allelic ratio (FLT3-ITDlow). The 2017 European LeukemiaNet guidelines assume this is true regardless of accompanying cytogenetic abnormalities. We
Micro-Spatial Analysis of Maize Yield Gap Variability and Production Factors
Site-specific land management practice taking into account variability in maize yield gaps (the difference between yields in the 90th percentiles and other yields on smallholder farmers’ fields) could improve resource use efficiency and enhance yields. However, the applicability of the practice is constrained by inability to identify patterns of resource utilization to target application of resour
Do the solvent properties affect the propensity for self-association of α-cyclodextrin? Insights from NMR self-diffusion
Whether cyclodextrins (CDs) self-aggregate or not in solution is an interesting and timely scientific question. Yet, we are far from a scientific consensus as regards the nature of the phenomenon. Those who are in favor of the formation of CD aggregates justify the phenomenon by the presence of H-bonds, occurring between the hydroxyl groups located at both rims of cyclodextrins. To gain further in

Recommendations of the LHC Dark Matter Working Group : Comparing LHC searches for dark matter mediators in visible and invisible decay channels and calculations of the thermal relic density
Weakly-coupled TeV-scale particles may mediate the interactions between normal matter and dark matter. If so, the LHC would produce dark matter through these mediators, leading to the familiar “mono-X” search signatures, but the mediators would also produce signals without missing momentum via the same vertices involved in their production. This document from the LHC Dark Matter Working Group sugg
Dogs can sense weak thermal radiation
The dog rhinarium (naked and often moist skin on the nose-tip) is prominent and richly innervated, suggesting a sensory function. Compared to nose-tips of herbivorous artio- and perissodactyla, carnivoran rhinaria are considerably colder. We hypothesized that this coldness makes the dog rhinarium particularly sensitive to radiating heat. We trained three dogs to distinguish between two distant obj

Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation estimated risk and prevalent subclinical atherosclerosis in coronary and carotid arteries : A population-based cohort analysis from the Swedish Cardiopulmonary Bioimage Study
BACKGROUND: It is not clear if the European Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation algorithm is useful for identifying prevalent subclinical atherosclerosis in a population of apparently healthy individuals. Our aim was to explore the association between the risk estimates from Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation and prevalent subclinical atherosclerosis.DESIGN: The design of this study was as a cros
Weight gain and blood pressure
OBJECTIVE: Although the causality of the obesity--hypertension association is established, the potential for prevention is not. We hypothesized that weight gain between early adulthood and mid-life is associated with higher mid-life blood pressure.METHODS: We investigated the hypothesis using a large contemporaneous population-based mid-life cohort of men and women aged 50-64 years. Recalled body
Food safety knowledge, sources thereof and self-reported behaviour among university students in Sweden
International studies have noted shortcomings in food safety knowledge and behaviour among university students. In general students do not constitute a pronounced risk group but there are wider implications. In a foreseeable future some of them will become pregnant and a majority will be responsible for vulnerable groups in their near environment. A crucial question exists, therefore, about their
Excitation wavelength dependence of photoluminescence flickering in degraded MAPbI3 perovskite and its connection to lead iodide formation
Metal halide perovskite semiconductors often exhibit photoluminescence blinking and flickering when luminescence of individual small nano- or even microcrystals is monitored. The nature of these fluctuations is not well understood but must be related to the presence of metastable non-radiative recombination channels and efficient charge migration in these materials. Here we report on the excitatio

Enhancing performance in anaerobic high-solids stratified bed digesters by straw bed implementation
Anaerobic high-solids single-stage stratified bed digesters have been found to be simple and flexible design candidates for small-scale reactors located in medium- to low-technology environments. In the present study, wheat straw was used as the starter material for the stratified bed. Upon green mass feeding, the anaerobically stabilised straw bed functioned both as a biofilm support and as a par
