Naturanpassade skyddsvallar mot stormfloder : Planering, anläggning, och förvaltning

Denna rapport är framtagen genom det Vinnova-finansierade projektet ”Naturbaserade skyddsvallar mot översvämning – planering, anläggning och förvaltning”. Projektet har varit ett samarbete mellan Vellinge kommun, Lunds universitet, Ecogain AB och Statens geotekniska institut (SGI). Föreliggande rapport är en sammanställning av de kunskaper och erfarenheter som har erhållits under detta projekt.

Religions of Europe : Selected Texts Presented at the Euroculture Intensive Programme 2021

This volume highlights the intricate relationship between religion, migration, and policy-making. It does so by investigating matters in different corners of Europe, from Iceland in the north to Spain in the south. With a clear focus on minority religions on the one hand and how Christianity is used to construct a European identity on the other, the authors provide insights into how different reli

Presenting Counterpoints to the Dominant Terrestrial Narrative of European Prehistory

Challenges the terrestrial focus of European prehistory, emphasizing the significance of seascapes, maritime networks, and coastal societies in shaping prehistoric Europe.For many years now, the main thrust of European prehistory has followed a fundamentally terrestrial plot line. This terrestrial paradigm has undervalued the story of Europe as a peninsula between the Baltic, Mediterranean and Atl

Larger boats, longer voyages, and powerful leaders : comparing Maritime Modes of Production in Scandinavia and California

Island and coastal societies around the world followed several unique developmental pathways that allowed for the formation of economically and politically complex systems. In this paper we argue that marine resources allow levels of intensification comparable to that of terrestrially focused societies, while seaworthy boats amplified the ability of emergent leaders to trade and raid over long dis

Review of wastewater treatment technologies, soil and water conservation measures in nuclear power plants, and inspirations to Fukushima accident

[Background] The previous studies suggest that radioactive elements like Cs+and Sr may adversely affect marine ecosystems and the fishing industry. Traditional treatment systems for radioactive wastewater like the Advanced Liquid Processing System (ALPS) and Kurion have faced challenges in limiting concentration and achieving safety criteria. Studies suggest potential long-term impacts on benthic

Piperacillin/tazobactam versus carbapenems for 30-day mortality in patients with ESBL-producing Enterobacterales bloodstream infections: a retrospective, multicenter, non-inferiority, cohort study

PurposeAntimicrobial resistance increases with the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics. Studies evaluating antibiotic stewardship are in high demand. Is piperacillin/tazobactam non-inferior to carbapenems regarding 30-day mortality among patients with bloodstream infections caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales?MethodsThis retrospective, multicenter, non-inferiority,

Optimizing industrial etching processes for PCB manufacturing : real-time temperature control using VGG-based transfer learning

Accurate temperature control in Printed Circuit Board (PCB) manufacturing is essential for maintaining high-quality etching results. Automated monitoring us-ing machine vision and deep learning offers an effective approach for this task. This study investigated a feature-based transfer learning technique for classifying temperature readiness in infrared images of the etching process. The captured

Small Books with a Mission : Prayer Books as Tools of Re-Catholicisation, c. 1540–1590

This thesis examines the role of German-language Catholic prayer books in the re-Catholicisation of Protestants during the approximate timeline 1540–1590. Within the broader context of the Catholic Reformation, these prayer books served as instruments of doctrinal transmission and devotional instruction, representing a form of ‘soft’ re-Catholicisation in contrast to the coercive methods used by s

Cellular and molecular cartography of muscle-invasive bladder cancer: Who benefits from neoadjuvant chemotherapy?

Muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) is characterised by significant molecular heterogeneity, with the tumour composition being further sculptured by local microenvironmental influences. This inherent complexity contributes to the divergent disease trajectories and the variable therapeutic susceptibility observed among patients. Consequently, there is an evident need for prognostic and predictive

KGB with a human face? End of illusions. : Social protests of Soviet workers in Novocherkassk 1962 as an initiator of a change in the character of the KGB

This article analyses the role of the Soviet political police and the KGB state security in suppressing large workers' protests in Novocherkassk in 1962. The aim is not only to study the actions of the KGB during the crisis itself, but above all to show how the events in Novocherkassk contributed to the subsequent change in the overall character of this repressive service and, more generally, the

Rights-based climate litigation with children as protagonists : a critical review of the literature

The last couple of years’ child/youth-led climate cases like Juliana v. US, Sacchi et al. v. Argentina et al. and the Duarte Agostinho case at the European Court of Human Rights have sparked the beginnings of a new sub-field of socio-legal child rights studies. The present paper systematically and critically reviews this emerging body of literature on rights-based climate litigation with children

Status of Sepsis Care in European Hospitals Results from an International Cross-Sectional Survey

Rationale: Early detection, standardized therapy, adequate infrastructure, and strategies for quality improvement should constitute essential components of every hospital’s sepsis plan. Objectives: To investigate the extent to which recommendations from the sepsis guidelines are implemented and the availability of infrastructure for the care of patients with sepsis in acute-care hospitals. Methods
