Background - Dignity, in the care of older nursing home residents, has been an increasingly part of the public discourse the recent years. Despite a growing body of knowledge about dignity and indignity in nursing homes, we have less knowledge of how relatives experience their role in this context. This study is a follow-up to a previous study in nursing homes, which gave rise to concern about the ...

We have revisited the electrochemistry of metallocorrole dimers with low-temperature cyclic voltammetry and UV–visible–NIR spectroelectrochemistry, with the aim of determining the sites of the redox processes undergone by these compounds. The systems studied include the metal–metal triple-bonded complexes {Ru[TpOMePC]}2 and {Os[TpOMePC]}2 and the metal–metal quadruple-bonded complex {Re[TPC]}2, where ...

The interest in video anomaly detection systems that can detect different types of anomalies, such as violent behaviours in surveillance videos, has gained traction in recent years. The current approaches employ deep learning to perform anomaly detection in videos, but this approach has multiple problems. For example, deep learning in general has issues with noise, concept drift, explainability, ...

Introduction: Recruiting doctors in rural areas is challenging. Various educational interventions have been introduced in many countries. This study aimed to explore undergraduate medical education interventions introduced to recruit doctors to rural areas, and the results of these interventions. Methods: We undertook a systematic search using search words 'rural', 'remote', 'workforce', 'physicians', ...

Background - When capacity-based mental health legislation was introduced in Norway in 2017, there was concern about the consequences of change in the law for patients’carer whose community treatment order was revoked as a result of being assessed as having capacity to consent. The concern was that the lack of a community treatment order would increase carers’ responsibilities in an already challenging ...

We present the first calculations of the heavy flavor diffusion coefficient using lattice QCD with light dynamical quarks corresponding to a pion mass of around 320 MeV. For temperatures 195 MeV <T< 352 MeV, the heavy quark spatial diffusion coefficient is found to be significantly smaller than previous quenched lattice QCD and recent phenomenological estimates. The result implies very fast ...

Surfers have concurred some of the harshest regions of the world with their surfboard, like the arctic waves of Norway. This is only made possible due to the wetsuit, a critical piece of equipment that enables surfers to stay in frigid waters and temperatures for hours. To understand the thermal behavior of wetsuits, knowledge on the phenomenon of heat transfer, and especially the conductive ...

Extreme space weather events are rare, and quantifying their likelihood is challenging, often relying on geomagnetic indices obtained from ground-based magnetometer observations that span multiple solar cycles. The Dst index ring-current monitor, derived from an hourly average over four low-latitude stations, is a benchmark for extreme space weather events, and has been extensively studied ...

Measurements of kinetic energy in vortical and divergent fluctuations in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere can be used to study stratified turbulence (ST) and gravity waves. This can be done using horizontal correlation functions of the fluctuating component of velocity. This study introduces a novel method for estimating these correlation functions using radars that observe Doppler shifts ...

Purpose The use of electrical stimulation to assess voluntary activation of muscle/s is a popular method employed in numerous exercise science and health research settings. This Delphi study aimed to collate expert opinion and provide recommendations for best practice when using electrical stimulation during maximal voluntary contractions.<p> <p>Methods A two-round Delphi study was undertaken with ...
