The present report presents a conceptual assessment model or framework for policy relevant analysis of low carbon transitions. The aim of the study is not to present specific guidelines for how to design assessments of low carbon transitions, but rather to give food for thought on aspects that should be regarded in the design process. The exact design would then depend on the purpose of the assess
ObjectivesTo describe the process and results of the updated Swedish practice guidelines for monotherapy in epilepsy.Materials and MethodsThe Swedish Medical Products Agency led the process together with medical experts. Evidence rating in accordance with the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) template was linked to the Cochrane group's GRADE system. Evidence from recently published tria
Den återupptagna totalförsvarsplaneringen med syfte att öka beredskapen inför kriser och krig innebär ökade ansträngningar för många samhällsaktörer med olika roller, ansvar och uppgifter. Detta har aktualiserat behovet av ett förtydligat sektorsansvar.I denna rapport diskuteras vilka beståndsdelar ett sektorsansvar kan ha, med energisektorn som exempel, inklusive de styrningskedjor som kan använd
Russia has become a magnet for migrant workers from other post-Soviet countries, especially Central Asians. Although Russian business elites generally welcome this cheap labor source, the government has deferred to, and at times encouraged, xenophobic popular sentiment. Steadily tightening immigration rules have forced many foreign workers into the informal economy, where they are vulnerable to ex
This chapter explores the interconnections between informality, migrant agency and networks of trust and solidarity in hybrid political regimes. These processes will be illustrated through the comparative study of the Russian and Turkish migration regimes, specifically focusing on the case of Uzbek migrant workers and their patterns of residence, incorporation into the labour market, gendered expe
There is an extensive research that explores the reproduction of transnational communities and relations, with a particular focus on locality, identity and culture. However, the existing research emanates from the case studies of immigrant communities in Western-type democracies, while we know little about migrant transnationalism in non-Western migration regimes such as Russia, where migrant work
Background: Omega-3 and acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) are two widely used “over-the-counter” drugs. Previous researchhas shown multiple electrode aggregometry (MEA) can detect ASA and varying Omega-3 platelet inhibiting effects.Synergistic platelet inhibiting effects of ASA and Omega-3 have been found using other methods than MEA. The aimof this study was to investigate the antiplatelet effects of Om
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to identify factors associated with health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and the burden on the relatives of older people with multi-morbidity.METHODS: A secondary analysis of baseline data from 296 dyads, including older patients with multimorbidity and their relatives, which were previously collected in a randomized study. The analysis was conducted to select correl
Resultat av försök som utfördes under oktober-november 1996 med elektroporering av senapsfrön i olika förbehandlingsmedier. Fröernas groning försämras med ökad koncentration av kalciumjoner i förbehandlingsmediet. Ju högre nivå av CaCI2, desto högre känslighet för elektroporering.
Differences in public health approaches to control the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic could largely explain substantial variations in epidemiological indicators (such as incidence and mortality) between the West and the East. COVID-19 revealed vulnerabilities of most western countries' healthcare systems in their response to the ongoing public health crisis. Hence, western countries
A growing number of connected IoT devices makesit more and more difficult for the network to provide the desiredreliability in any deployment scenario. The advent of NB-IoTtechnology opens new possibilities for low-power long-range IoTapplications. However, the design of the standard introduces highbattery drainage in the situations when the radio conditionsbetween the UE and the eNB are poor. Dev
Discontinuous Reception (DRX) has been included in 4G-LTE as the main power saving mechanism for User Equipment (UE). However, the existing 3-state DRX model is not sufficient for new use cases introduced by 4G and 5G. For example, the device discovery process in Device to Device (D2D) communication has a significant impact on delay and power consumption, but the existing conventional 3-state DRX
Context. Wide hot subdwarf B (sdB) binaries with main-sequence companions are outcomes of stable mass transfer from evolved red giants. The orbits of these binaries show a strong correlation between their orbital periods and mass ratios. The origins of this correlation have, so far, been lacking a conclusive explanation. Aims. We aim to find a binary evolution model which can explain the observed
Biochar produced in cookstoves has the potential to contribute to negative carbon emissions through sequestration of biomass carbon while also providing other benefits for sustainable development, including provision of clean renewable energy and increased yields in tropical agriculture. The aim of the reported research was to estimate effects on food production, household energy access and life c
