Previous research on A/B testing and continuous experimentation has mostly focused on large-scale settings with company-external customers. However, work efficiency and satisfaction for company coworkers may be highly related to internal tools and their fit-for-use. In this study, we therefore explore A/B testing for online services exclusively used by company co-workers. We A/B tested two version

This is the report from the fifth meeting of the Harmonising Outcome Measures for Eczema initiative (HOME V). The meeting was held on 12–14 June 2017 in Nantes, France, with 81 participants. The main aims of the meeting were (i) to achieve consensus over the definition of the core domain of long-term control and how to measure it and (ii) to prioritize future areas of research for the measurement

BACKGROUND: In the era of rising carbapenem resistance, we aimed to investigate the change in mortality rate and positivity of carbapenemase genes in Acinetobacter baumannii.METHODS: Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review (PRISMA) guidelines were adopted in this systematic review. Our literature search included the Cochrane Library, Pubmed, Scopus, Web of Science, Medline, Tubitak TR Dizi

The potential of geothermal energy for energy transition is increasingly recognized by governments around the world. Whether geothermal energy is a sustainable source of heat and/or electricity depends on how it is deployed in specific contexts. Therefore, it is striking that there is only limited attention to geothermal energy from a social science and humanities (SSH) perspective. Geothermal ene

The global discourse on climate change, emphasises the need for a rapid clean energy transition. National net-zero commitments are highly contingent on fossil fuel phaseout. India showed active leadership in the Glasgow Summit, 2021 by setting its Renewable Energy targets to 500 GW by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2070. However, these entail major energy justice concerns as 80 % of India's electr

Peatlands are unique ecosystems that contain massive amounts of carbon. These ecosystems are incredibly vulnerable to human disturbance and climate change. This may cause the peatland carbon sink to shift to a carbon source. A change in the carbon storage of peatlands may result in surface deformation. This research uses the interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) technique to measure the

A magnetic compass sense has been demonstrated in all major classes of vertebrates, as well as in many invertebrates. In mammals, controlled laboratory studies of mice have provided evidence for a robust magnetic compass that is comparable to, or exceeds, the performance of that in other animals. Nevertheless, the vast majority of laboratory studies of spatial behavior and cognition in murine rode

The Great Green Wall Initiative (GGWI) is a pan-African program launched in 2007 to combat land degradation and bring about both ecological and socio-economic benefits in the Sahel. With projects in place on only one-fifth of the targeted land and uncertainty about the extent of positive impacts, there is a need for improved monitoring and evaluation of current projects to inform the design of fut

Micro- and nanoplastic pollution has emerged as a global environmental problem. Moreover, plastic particles are of increasing concern for human health. However, the detection of so-called nanoplastics in relevant biological compartments remains a challenge. Here we show that Raman confocal spectroscopy-microscopy can be deployed for the non-invasive detection of amine-functionalized and carboxy-fu

Climate change is increasingly prominent as a security threat within the security discourse. The long-term consequences of climate change contribute to its complexity, and how this issue is represented in national policy affects both public perception and policy response. Sweden, positioning itself as a frontrunner in tackling climate change while experiencing one of the highest increases in tempe

As the global climate crisis continues to develop, the significance of climate policies in creating sustainable mitigation and adaptation plans to prevent climate change’s adverse effects increases. The ability of climate policies to effectively address those most affected is crucial to prevent disparities among people. In Uganda, women, especially those who are in a vulnerable state due to overla

The Swedish election 2022 demonstrated a significant ideological divide between men and women in Genreation Z, a unique phenomenon for this generation. This contradicts the Cultural Backlash-theory, which empathizes young people’s inclination to support left-leaning parties. This study examines the rightward shift amongst men in Generation Z through an ideal type analysis, constructed from charact

Recent years have seen an increase in reports on rising wildfire occurrences in countries of the Middle East. Wildfires are integral parts of terrestrial ecosystems and as such prone to the recent, large-scale anthropogenic changes of global ecosystem dynamics. However, the systematic analysis of patterns of wildfire occurrences – fire regimes – is concentrated on a few well studied regions and re

This paper studies the effect of corruption on four selected health outcomes, by using cross- country panel data, containing the 36 member states of OECD. The time period stretches from 1995 to 2017, extending upon previous studies by including data from more recent years. In order to estimate the effects of corruption, the paper uses Ordinary Least Squares, fixed effects and two-way fixed effects
