The Internet of Things (IoT) is a large network of connected devices. In IoT, devices can communicate with each other or back-end systems to transfer data or perform assigned tasks. Communication protocols used in IoT depend on target applications but usually require low bandwidth. On the other hand, IoT devices are constrained, having limited resources, including memory, power, and computational

Hur påverkas synergonomin av att jobba vid fler och stora skärmar? Det ska Hillevi Hemphälä, doktor i arbetsmiljöteknik, undersöka i en treårig forskningsstudie.– Enligt de gamla rekommendationerna ska datorskärmar på upp till 26 tums storlek placeras på 90 centimeters avstånd för att vi ska undvika huvudrörelser i sid- och höjdled. Men många skrivbord i dag är 80 centimeter och datorskärmarna oft

Self-Adaptive Systems (SAS) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) have received significant attention in recent computer engineering research. This is due to their ability to improve the level of autonomy of engineering artefacts. In both cases, this autonomy increase is achieved through feedback. Feedback is the iteration of sens- ing and actuation to respectively acquire knowledge about the current s

Bakgrund: Klimakteriet är en fas som drabbar kvinnor mitt i livet med varierande symtom. Kvinnorna upplever klimakteriet olika beroende på kvinnans bakgrund, erfarenhet, kultur och sociala kontext. Klimakteriet är inte ett område som har så stort fokus i utbildningen till distriktssköterska, men som är ett viktigt område för den verksamma distriktssköterskan, utifrån hur vanliga symtomen på klimak

Transfusion-related acute lung injury is a leading cause of death associated with the use of blood products. Transfusion-related acute lung injury is a diagnosis of exclusion which can be difficult to identify during surgery amid the various physiologic and pathophysiologic changes associated with the perioperative period. As anesthesiologists supervise delivery of a large portion of inpatient pre

We want to have a good life! In fact, this is the core of urbanism and the reason why we keep building and constantly improving our cities. The ideal of how we wanted to live has changed through the time and developed into a form many people are satisfied with. But there is so much behind us living this ‘good life’. The urgency of climate crisis and the worsening situation for humans in afflict

OBJECTIVES: To investigate differences in antibiotic prescription for patients with hard-to-heal ulcers assessed using a digital decision support system (DDSS) compared with those assessed without using a DDSS. A further aim was to examine predictors for antibiotic prescription.DESIGN: Register-based study.SETTING: In 2018-2019, healthcare staff in primary, community and specialist care in Sweden

Background: Joint damage in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) includes erosions and joint space narrowing (JSN). Predictors of these processes, and the underlying mechanisms, require further study1.Objectives: To investigate the relation between patient characteristics at RA diagnosis and progression of erosions and JSN, over 5 years. Methods: Consecutive early RA patients (symptom duration Results: 233 e

PURPOSE: We conducted a cross-sectional study to evaluate long-term outcomes of epilepsy surgery in tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) in a Swedish population.METHODS: Demographic and seizure data was retrieved from the Swedish National Epilepsy Surgery Registry and medical records. Patient reported outcome measurements (PROM) were determined by telephonic interviews at long term follow-up.RESULTS:

Objective To compare and summarize the literature regarding infodemics and health misinformation, and to identify challenges and opportunities for addressing the issues of infodemics. Methods We searched MEDLINE®, Embase®, Cochrane Library of Systematic Reviews, Scopus and Epistemonikos on 6 May 2022 for systematic reviews analysing infodemics, misinformation, disinformation and fake news related

Personality is usually measured by means of self-ratings. Despite some drawbacks, the method is here to stay, and improving on it, particularly regarding social desirability, is essential. One way to do this is evaluative neutralization, that is, to rephrase items such that it is less obvious to the respondent what would be a desirable response. We present a 120-item evaluatively neutralized five-

The Storage Location Assignment Problem (SLAP) is of primary significance to warehouse operations sincethe cost of order-picking is strongly related to where and how far vehicles have to travel. Unfortunately, ageneralized model of the SLAP, including various warehouse layouts, order-picking methodologies andconstraints, poses a highly intractable problem. Proposed optimization methods for the SLA
