Long-term survival after childhood cancer often comes at the expense of late, adverse health conditions. However, survivorship care is frequently not available for adult survivors in Europe. The PanCareFollowUp Consortium therefore developed the PanCareFollowUp Care Intervention, an innovative person-centred survivorship care model based on experiences in the Netherlands. This paper describes the

Objective: To assess women's perceptions of the quality of maternal and newborn care (QMNC) received in hospitals in Romania during the COVID-19 pandemic by mode of birth. Methods: A validated anonymous online questionnaire based on WHO quality measures. Subgroup analysis of spontaneous vaginal birth (SVB), emergency cesarean, and elective cesarean and multivariate analyses were performed, and QMN

Background: In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), fibrillar tau initially occurs locally and progresses preferentially between closely connected regions. However, the underlying sources of regional vulnerability to tau pathology remain unclear. Previous brain-autopsy findings suggest that the myelin levels—which differ substantially between white matter tracts in the brain—are a key modulating factor of re

Femtosecond laser-induced cyano chemiluminescence uses femtosecond filaments to tag molecules in a flow field, and velocity information of the flow field can be obtained by observing the displacement of the tagged molecules within a known time. The one-dimensional (1D) emitting line contains 1D velocity field information, but only the velocity at the central point can be given because it is unable

A crucial step in the chemical delignification of wood is the transport of lignin fragments into free liquor; this step is believed to be the rate-limiting step. This study has investigated the diffusion of kraft lignin molecules through model cellulose membranes of various pore sizes (1–200 nm) by diffusion cells, where the lignin molecules diffuse from donor to acceptor cells through a membrane,

The time dependence of ice-nucleating particle (INP) activity is known to exist, yet for simplicity it is often omitted in atmospheric models as an approximation. Hitherto, only limited experimental work has been done to quantify this time dependency, for which published data are especially scarce regarding ambient aerosol samples and longer timescales. In this study, the time dependence of INP ac

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation is considered a useful strategy for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D). It is unclear whether the expression and/or activity of AMPK in adipocytes is dysregulated in obesity. Also, the expression/activity pattern of AMPKβ isoforms, which are targets for AMPK activators, in adipocytes remains elusive. In this study we show that the two AMPKβ isofor

Syftet med den här rapporten är att bidra till en ökad förståelse av handelns innovativa förmåga och att bidra till ett för handeln anpassat sätt att leda och organisera innovation. Tillsammans med de företag som har varit delaktiga i forskningsprojektet vill vi dela med oss av de utmaningar och lösningar som vi har identifierat, diskuterat och analyserat i relation till den existerande kunskapen

Traditionally, food safety knowledge has been seen as a factor in improving food safety behaviour. However, the relationship between knowledge and behavior is complex. The aim of the present study was to investigate self-reported data from 408 university students regarding food safety background, knowledge, attitudes, and behaviour using Structural Equation Model (SEM) to examine the influence of

Under miljonprogrammet byggdes en stor andel av de lägenheter som bebos idag. Många av de här byggnaderna är nu över 50 år gamla och behöver renoveras. Sverige har även som mål att vara klimatneutrala 2045. För att klara våra energi och miljömål måste de även tilläggs isoleras och energieffektiviseras. Problemet är att en stor del av de här byggnaderna är hyresrätter med stor andel låginkomsttagarA large portion of the Swedish apartments that are lived in today were built under the million program. Many of these buildings are now over 50 years old and need renovation. Sweden also aims to be climate-neutral by 2045. In order to meet our energy and environmental goals, the buildings must also be made more energy efficient. The problem is that a large part of these buildings are rental proper

Various mechanisms of secondary ice production (SIP) cause multiplication of numbers of ice particle, after the onset of primary ice. A measure of SIP is the ice enhancement ratio (“IE ratio”) defined here as the ratio between number concentrations of total ice (excluding homogeneously nucleated ice) and active ice-nucleating particles (INPs). A convective line observed on 11 May 2011 over the Sou

β-Mannan is abundant in the human diet and in hemicellulose derived from softwood. Linear or galactose-substituted β-mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS/GMOSs) derived from β-mannan are considered emerging prebiotics that could stimulate health-associated gut microbiota. However, the underlying mechanisms are not yet resolved. Therefore, this study investigated the cross-feeding and metabolic interaction

In his late writings Husserl emphasizes how the semiotic properties of writing, and of mathematical formulae and diagrams, are crucial for the historical, cross-generational survivability of meaning and specifically indispensable to the operation of scientific knowledge. However, the demand for objectivity, exactitude, and repeatability insidiously interferes with the meaning that such signs seek
