The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is a highly influential financial international organization that will be vital for the success of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). While the IMF has been criticized by civil society actors for its negative impact on sustainable development, it is now focusing on supporting the SDGs. This support is particularly relevant when it comes to ensuring the
Accountability is central for accelerating progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It means to hold powerful actors answerable for how they turn agreements into action. Governments, who hold the main responsibility for SDG implementation, can in the ideal case be held accountable by voters, parliaments, civil society, and the media, for how they address the SDGs. At th
Introduction: Vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (vNOTES) is a technique combining vaginal entrance to the abdomen with endoscopic overview. Previous studies have shown that vNOTES decreases operating time, hospitalization, postoperative complications, and pain. We aimed to present patient demographics, costs, and surgical outcomes following the implementation of vNOTES for be
This explorative study investigates the emergence of gray zone markets from search engines amidst the global expansion of online markets. With the analytical approach of infrastructural inversion, we examine how the search infrastructure constructs access to a gray zone market including both authorized online pharmacies and unauthorized vendors. Using Sweden and Google Search as a case, we explore
ELT science drivers stress aperture, Strehl ratio, PSF definition andstability, field of view, wavelength range, flexibility, lowpolarisation and thermal emittance, auxiliary instruments, site andinfrastructure. Applicable science categories are planets and planetarysystems, stars and stellar systems, galaxies and galaxy clusters, andcosmology. ELT observations are needed for our own and other pla
Sammanfattning av eget föredrag om tidningen Lundagårds symboldjur "Quatten" (hållet för Sällskapet Pelle Svanslös Vänner i Uppsala 2015-11-16)
We present a constructive approach to bounded l2-gain adaptive control with noisy measurements for linear time-invariant scalar systems with uncertain parameters belonging to a finite set. The gain bound refers to the closed-loop system, including the learning procedure. The approach is based on forward dynamic programming to construct a finite-dimensional information state consisting of H-infinit
BackgroundLow concentrations of serum selenium (Se) and its main transporter selenoprotein P (SELENOP) are associated with a poor prognosis following breast cancer diagnosis. Recently, natural autoantibodies (aAb) with antagonistic properties to SELENOP uptake have been identified in healthy subjects, and in patients with thyroid disease. Given the potential transport disrupting properties, we hyp
Background: Swimming ability among children in the city of Malmö, Sweden is strongly affected by socioeconomic differences. We investigated to what extent mediating health and lifestyle factors, such as children’s eating, sleeping and physical activity habits, as well as the characteristics of the social and working environment at both school and home, could explain the socioeconomic gradient in s
