Improving the Efficacy of Enuresis Alarm Treatment through Early Prediction of Treatment Outcome : A Machine Learning Approach

Introduction: Bedwetting, also known as enuresis, is the second most common chronic health problem among children and it affects their everyday life negatively. A first-line treatment option is the enuresis alarm. This method entails the child being awoken by a detector and alarm unit upon urination at night, thereby changing their arousal mechanisms and potentially curing them after 6–8 weeks of

Methylxanthine for the prevention and treatment of apnea in preterm infants

BACKGROUND: Very preterm infants often require respiratory support and are therefore exposed to an increased risk of chronic lung disease and later neurodevelopmental disability. Although methylxanthines are widely used to prevent and treat apnea associated with prematurity and to facilitate extubation, there is uncertainty about the benefits and harms of different types of methylxanthines.OBJECTI

Automated actual evapotranspiration estimation : Hybrid model of a novel attention based U-Net and metaheuristic optimization algorithms

Actual evapotranspiration (ETa) plays a crucial role in the water and energy cycles of the earth. An accurate estimate of the ETa is essential for management of the water resources, agriculture, and irrigation, as well as research on atmospheric variations. Despite the importance of accurate ETa values, estimating and mapping them remains challenging due to the physical and biological complexity o

Global Soil moisture trend analysis using microwave remote sensing data and an automated polynomial-based algorithm

The change in Soil Moisture Content (SMC) is one of the most crucial variables for regulating and analyzing basic hydrological processes, including runoff, evaporation, carbon and energy cycles, infiltration of water resources, droughts and floods, and desertification. This study aimed to detect and map the global SMC change using microwave remote sensing observations. Monthly SMC data from the So

Violence and victim souls : Exploring the connection of gender-based violence, beatification, and Christian theology of suffering

Commencing from the question “what makes mysticism feminine?” (a medical-historical conception of female bodies being receptive to some forms of mystical experiences? following an idea of gendered embodiment, a specific feminine spiritual corporeality?), the presence of forms of violence preceding the beatification or sanctification of women as victim souls caught my attention.Examples like Laura

Kombinerade X-bandsanläggningar som väderradar : Jämförelse med etablerade metoder för regnmätning

Studien är en första utvärdering i Sverige av X-bandsteknik som väderradar. Den visar hur flera X-bandsradaranläggningar kan samarbeta och hur regninformationen kan användas för avrinningssimulering. Tekniken öppnar nya utvecklingsmöjligheter för VA-branschen. Det gäller inte minst driften av ledningsnätet, väderstyrning av ledningsnät och reningsverk, samt utvecklingen av publika varningssystem.In this research report, a new methodology has been developed in order to integrate several X-band radar data sets in to one complete set. Furthermore, a direct and an indirect evaluation have been conducted compared to stationary rain gauges and C-band radar. In the indirect analysis, the input data sets were integrated into runoff models for Ellinge and Lundåkra WWTP where the results were compa

Lichenicolous fungi associated with southern Scandinavian Xanthoria calcicola s.lat.

Eleven species of lichenicolous fungi associated with Xanthoria calcicola s.lat. are found in southernmost Scandinavia, i.e., Skåne, the southernmost province in Sweden and southern Denmark. Two species, Didymocyrtis slaptoensis and Pyrenochaeta xanthoriae, are reported as new for the Nordic countries, whereas three species, Didymocyrtis cf. consimilis, Erythricium aurantiacum, and Illosporiopsis

Skräckens eller hoppets bilder? Om synerna i Apokalypsen

Uppenbarelseboken avtäcker med sina fasansfulla syner – sin Apokalyps – vad som ska ske på den yttersta dagen, då allt ont ska förgås och ett nytt rike ska upprättas. Men numera menas ofta med apokalyps enbart den skräckfyllda, mytologiska spådomen om en framtida katastrof. Kan man istället förstå Uppenbarelsebokens syner som en varning, för den katastrof vi själva är med om att skapa här och nu,
