This article engages critically with one of the more original and thought-provoking efforts of recent years to respond philosophically to the current predicament of the world: Thomas Lynch’s 2019 study Apocalyptic Political Theology. While agreeing with Lynch that the urgency of our times calls for more radical approaches than cautious dialogue or reformist adaptation, it nonetheless argues that a
Despite extensive research on Quality-of-Services (QoS) analysis of 5G networks, practical applications remain limited. This gap may be attributed to the lack of available tools and the complexity of developing or configuring technical systems to implement theoretical approaches. To address this, we developed an edge control system within a private 5G base station, utilizing Precision Time Protoco
Precise knowledge of the temperature during cutting processes is of high interest as the temperature of a cutting tool dictates the performance, and for the workpiece it controls the quality and integrity of the generated surface. For the first time, in this study, a novel technique has been developed utilizing phosphor thermometry for 2D surface temperature measurement of a cutting tool in metal
Cyklisters åkkomfort, kopplat till cykelvägens textur och jämnhet, har hittills inte undersökts på ett uttömmande vis. Det beror delvis på att det saknas tillståndsbedömningsmetoder som är speciellt utvecklade för cykelvägarnas lägre hastighetsgränser och begränsade utrymme. Det behövs textur- och jämnhetsmått som passar cyklisters, och inte bilisters, upplevda åkkomfort. I den här artikeln presenCyclists’ riding comfort, related to pavement texture and unevenness, has not been thourougly investigated, partly due to the lack of condition assessment methods specifically adapted to the speed and space limits on cycle paths. Metrics that better describe the perceived comfort of cyclists, rather than that of car users, are needed. In this paper a novel method, the Bicycle Measurement Trailer (
Ett vanligt problem på cykelvägar är kantsprickor, vilka påverkar trafiksäkerheten och framkomligheten för cyklister negativt och bidrar till ökade underhållskostnader. Cykelvägarna är extra känsliga för den här problematiken då de både är tunnare och smalare än bilvägar. Ett par passager av tunga fordon vid ogynnsamma tidpunkter kan räcka för att cykelvägens kant ska knäckas. Bärförmågan hos åttaA recurrent challenge on cycle paths are edge cracks, which affect the traffic safety and accessibility of cyclists and produce high maintenance costs. Being both structurally thinner and narrower structures than roads, the cycle paths are extra prone to this problem. A few passages of heavy vehicles in unfavourable conditions might be enough to break the edge. The load-bearing capacity of eight m
This paper presents a novel convolutional neural network (CNN)-based control chart for detecting localized and subtle speckle shifts (displacements) in the images. To enhance detection accuracy, especially in detecting localized and simultaneous shifts, we design a custom CNN architecture and utilize a training methodology. Moreover, instead of inputting the entire images, we divide them into equa
In inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) the pathogenetic process is characterized by dysbiosis, increased permeability, translocation, and immune activation. The aim of the present study was to assess the presence of viable bacteria in the blood of patients with IBD and to correlate the findings with clinical characteristics. The study included 28 patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) (median age 38 year
INTRODUCTION: Tourette syndrome (TS) and chronic motor or vocal tic disorder (CTD) are neurodevelopmental disorders associated with functional impairment and reduced quality of life. Behavioral therapy (BT) is an effective treatment, but lack of experienced practitioners makes it hard for patients to receive appropriate help. One approach to bridge the gap between demand and availability is to off
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: The incidence of type 1 diabetes increased during the pandemic in various countries. SARS-CoV-2 infections may trigger the development of type 1 diabetes, but the evidence is inconclusive. This study aimed to assess trends in type 1 diabetes incidence between 2007 and 2023, and to quantify the association between SARS-CoV-2 infections and the risk for developing type 1 diabetes.ME
Background and aim: Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in the intestines activates leukocytes and reactive oxygen species (ROS) and leads to lipid peroxidation and DNA damage. Rosehips have a high content of polyphenols and might prevent lipid peroxidation. Some Lactobacillus species are capable of degrading polyphenols to simpler and non-toxic constituents, sometimes with enhanced antioxidative capacity.
BACKGROUND: Nimodipine improves outcome after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) through mitigation of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). Most studies are based on a treatment duration of 21 days. At our institution, clinical practice is to administer nimodipine for 14 days, regardless of bleeding severity. Treatment is prolonged if signs or symptoms of DCI occurs. The present study aims to r
The polar lipids in oat grains are crucial due to their biological functions, nutritional quality, potential use in food flavour and processing, the protection they provide against biotic and abiotic stresses, and their ability to act as cellular signalling molecules. In this study, we present novel findings about the impacts of fertilization and field management on oat polar lipid and fatty acid
Objective: To design a dynamic prediction model for estimating the time of progression from a single glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibody (GADA) to multiple islet autoantibodies and type 1 diabetes in children, exploring different longitudinally measured risk variables. Research Design and Methods: GADA-positive children (n = 379) participating in The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in
I en tid då verkningarna av den tredje industriella revolutionens utveckling av informationsteknologi utmanar vårt beskattningssystem har den fjärde industriella revolutionen redan inletts. Parallellt med de svårigheter som följer av att försöka fastställa var en digital närvaro ska beskattas står vi inför en samhällsomdanande strukturomvandling, där ökad automatisering pådriven av artificiell int
