Cambodia is now facing alarming issues concerning occupational safety and health in the construction sector. According to the ILO, in 2009, every day four people in Cambodia were killed due to occupational accidents which this amounted to more than 1500 death of the construction workers. Based on the union leaders in Cambodia, those accidents and illnesses were seen and occurred at the constructio

Introduction: Our objective was determining the optimal combinations of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers for predicting disease progression in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative diseases. Methods: We included 1,983 participants from three different cohorts with longitudinal cognitive and clinical data, and baseline CSF levels of Aβ42, Aβ40, phosphorylated tau at threonine-181

Under the background of the rapid development of social media, video storytelling plays an essential role in the development of a brand. More and more videos with the personal brand have become popular among the public. However, in the context of the storytelling approach, personal branding through storytelling has been rarely reported in the literature. In this study, showing the YouTuber, Li Ziq

A wide variety of high temperature experimental data obtained in this study complement the data on the oxidation of the two di-isobutylene isomers presented in Part I and offers a basis for an extensive validation of the kinetic model developed in this study. Due to the increasing importance of unimolecular decomposition reactions in high-temperature combustion, we have investigated the di-isobuty

FinEstBeAMS is an atmospheric and materials science beamline located at the 1.5 GeV storage ring of the MAX IV Laboratory in Lund, Sweden. It offers a very wide photon energy range 4.5-1300 eV and radiation with different polarization characteristics. The beamline has three end stations installed at two branch lines. The new solid state end station (SSES) is described in this paper. It is a high-t

The spectral characteristics in the visible range of synthesized nanocomposites based on cadmium sulfide and ultradispersed polytetrafluoroethylene are investigated experimentally. Local perturbations are found in the long-wavelength regions of the reflection and absorption spectra, which are related to the optical transitions between the critical points of the valence and conduction bands of the

Nanosized copper-containing particles stabilized on the surface of polymer nanograins were obtained by thermal decomposition of copper-containing precursors in a fluidized bed of ultradispersed polytetrafluoroethylene. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the average size of nanoparticles is 10-12 nm. The structure of the particles was determined by EXAFS, EPR, and X-ray powder diffraction

Objective: Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) receptor expression has been reported in many extra-gonadal tissues, raising the question of non-reproductive effects of FSH. Because of increasing usage of FSH in treatment of male infertility, deeper knowledge of possible harmful off-target effects of FSH is warranted. Methods: In total, 33 healthy young men (mean age 30 years) were included in the s

Lateral dimensions of III-V nanowires are known to affect the growth dynamics and crystal structure. Investigations into size effects have in the past relied on theoretical models and post growth observations, which only give a limited insight into the growth dynamics. Here we show the first experimental investigation into how nanowire diameter affects the growth dynamics by growing Au-seeded GaAs

Gender-based violence (GBV) is both a human right violation, a threat to develop-ment and a global health issue. Women with disabilities (WWD) are a group more exposed to GBV. However, research has been scarce about WWD and GBV, espe-cially in the Global South. This thesis studies how local organizations are working on the issue of GBV targeting WWD in Uganda. The theoretical framework em-ployed i

Hybrid computational schemes combining the advantages of a method of moments formulation of a field integral equation and T-matrix method are developed in this article. The hybrid methods are particularly efficient when describing the interaction of electrically small complex objects and electrically large objects of canonical shapes such as spherical multilayered bodies where the T-matrix method

Background The shortage of surgeons, anaesthesiologists and obstetricians in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) is occasionally bridged by foreign surgical teams from high-income countries on short-term visits. To advise on ethical guidelines for such activities, the aim of this study was to present LMIC stakeholders' perceptions of visiting surgical teams from high-income countries. M

PurposeTo determine the association between the occurrence of sporadic and periodic fetal heart rate accelerations during labor and acidemia at birth.Materials and methodsThis is a case–control study of fetal heart rate patterns from 364 neonates with acidemia at birth (cord blood pH ResultsDuring the first stage, ≥2 sporadic accelerations were present in 16% of cases and 78% of controls; OR for a

The Josephson junction of a strong spin-orbit material under a magnetic field is a promising Majorana fermion candidate. Supercurrent enhancement by a magnetic field has been observed in the InAs nanowire Josephson junctions and assigned to a topological transition. In this work we observe a similar phenomenon but discuss the nontopological origin by considering the trapping of quasiparticles by v

Background: Targeted temperature management (TTM) is recommended following cardiac arrest; however, time to target temperature varies in clinical practice. We hypothesised the effects of a target temperature of 33 °C when compared to normothermia would differ based on average time to hypothermia and those patients achieving hypothermia fastest would have more favorable outcomes. Methods: In this p
