Venous needle dislodgement (VND) during dialysis is a rarely occurring adverse event, which becomes life-threatening if not handled promptly. Because the standard venous pressure alarm, implemented in most dialysis machines, has low sensitivity, a novel approach using extracted cardiac information to detect needle dislodgement is proposed. Four features are extracted from the arterial and venous p
Laser-induced fluorescence is a powerful measurement method for determining the concentration of organic pollutants as well as the amount of algae in water. It can be applied in remote sensing of natural waters and has the advantages of high speed and sensitivity. In this paper, we present a compact handheld fluorosensor system for water quality assessment. The power of the technique is demonstrat
Although natural products are an important source of drugs and drug leads, identification and validation of their target proteins have proven difficult. Here, we report the development of a systematic strategy for target identification and validation employing drug affinity responsive target stability (DARTS) and mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) without modifying or labeling natural compounds. Thro
Lung cancer accounts for 1.6 million deaths per year worldwide. The majority of patients are diagnosed at advanced stages of the disease and often present with metastasis. Thus, the 5-year survival rate of lung cancer remains around 15%. Early diagnosis of lung cancer allows for better control of the disease with 5-year survival rates up to around 70%. Chest radiography is the most common techniqu
To overcome the large discrepancy in speed between computational devices and that of contemporary large capacity non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies, resistive random access memory (RRAM) technologies are seen as promising candidates, offering speed/energy improvements in several orders of magnitude while being 3D integration compatible [1]. Indium-Tin-Oxide (ITO) has several unique properties
Critical raw materials (CRM) are extensively used in tools for metal cutting, such as in cemented carbide tools (cobalt and tungsten), because they provide desired characteristics of high fracture toughness and wear resistance. Both academia and industry are examining CRM-free material alternatives, such as tools based on polycrystalline diamond (PCD) or ceramic materials. These materials are gene
Lunds universitet har uppmanats att ge synpunkter på rubricerad remiss. Universitetet lämnar här följande kommentarer vilka har utarbetats vid Ekonomihögskolan vid Lunds universitet av docent Fredrik N G Andersson och professor emeritus Lars Jonung. Inflationsmålet infördes för över 25 år sedan. Villkoren för att bedriva penningpolitik har förändrats på ett omvälvande sätt under detta kvartssekel.
A solution to the quasistatically propagating mode III crack in an elastic perfectly plastic solid is obtained as the limit solution for vanishingly small linear strain hardening. A point above or below the crack plane will experience, first, a centered fan slip line field followed at the angle ±32.8° ahead of the crack tip by elastic unloading and, finally, from the angle ±179.7° to the crack sur
The Antarctic CM2 carbonaceous chondrite QUE 93005 contains four compositionally distinct carbonates, namely breunnerite, calcite, dolomite and a Ca-poor dolomite. These carbonates can form monomineralic grains, or may be intergrown as bimineralic grains consisting of dolomite plus breunnerite and dolomite plus calcite, or polymineralic grains containing an intergrowth of breunnerite, Ca-poor dolo
Background: Brief Admission is a crisis and risk management strategy in which self-harming and suicidal individuals with three or more diagnostic criteria of borderline personality disorder self-admit to hospital at times of increasing risk when other efforts to stay safe are failing. Standardized in the current randomized controlled trial, the intensity of Brief Admission Skåne is implemented in
A complex reaction mechanism of oxidation of the anti-tubercular prodrug isoniazid (isonicotinic hydrazide, INH) by [IrCl6]2− as a model for redox processes of such drugs in biological systems has been studied in aqueous solution as a function of pH between 0 and 8.5. Similar experiments have been performed with its isomer nicotinic hydrazide (NH). All reactions are overall second-order, first-ordA complex reaction mechanism of oxidation of the anti-tubercular prodrug isoniazid (isonicotinic hydrazide, INH) by [IrCl6]2− as a model for redox processes of such drugs in biological systems has been studied in aqueous solution as a function of pH between 0 and 8.5.

Årsredovisningar handlar inte bara om att kommunicera ett företags resultat och finansiella ställning utan även om att att upprätthålla förtroendet för finansmarknaden och kapitalismen. De fungerar mer som en ritual än som allsidig information, skriver forskarna Henrik Rahm och Peter Svensson.
