Ett av de viktigste symptomene er anestesi av underleppe/hake
Hvor ofte slik diagnose stilles, var ukjent for Kreftregisteret
Alternative søtningsmidler: Egenskaper, bruksområder, sikkerhetsaspekter og helseeffekter – Del 2: Intense søtstoff
Authors: Giertsen Elin , Bergesen Guri Høgenæs , Bakken Torunn Birkeland , Aas Anne-Marie 
Published: September 2022

Hovedbudskap
Det finnes gode intense søtstoff til bruk som sukkererstatninger i alle typer matvarekategorier og produkter hvor søtstoff anvendes, og flere egner seg til matlaging ved høye temperaturer.
Intense søtstoff er ikke-kariogene, øker ikke blodsukkeret og er i praksis kalorifrie.
I kombinasjon brukes det svært små mengder av intense søtstoff fordi de ofte forsterker hverandres søtningsgrad (synergieffekt), og slike kombinasjoner gir også en forbedret søtsmak.
Kunnskapsgrunnlaget vi har i dag er ikke tilstrekkelig til å kunne besvare hvorvidt bruk av intense søtstoff kan påvirke kroppsvekt over tid.
Det er trygt å bruke intense søtstoff innenfor de vedtatte verdier for akseptabelt daglig inntak.

Published: September 2022

Hovedbudskap
Tannlegeadministrert kognitiv atferdsterapi (D-CBT) er en metode som effektivt kan redusere både alvorlig og mindre alvorlig tannbehandlingsangst i løpet av få behandlingstimer (5 timer) hos allmennpraktiserende tannlege.
Tannbehandling under sedasjon med midazolam kombinert med bruk av kommunikasjonsmetoden «Fire gode vaner» kan effektivt redusere tannbehandlingsangst.
Studien støtter en modell der pasienter kan få behandling av tannbehandlingsangst i primær tannhelsetjeneste utført av allmenntannlege. Det tverrfaglige offentlige tilbudet (TOO) kan i en slik modell spisses mot sammensatte og/eller mer behandlingsresistente tilfeller av tannbehandlingsangst.
Heat Recovery from Cryptocurrency Mining by Liquid Cooling Technology
Authors: Chen Nan , Chen Yunshui , Zhao He 
Published: September 2022

Bitcoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency, currently consumes an estimated 150 terawatt-hours of electricity annually. Most cryptocurrency miners have dissipated the thermal energy from mining chips to the ambient by air cooling circulation. To recover the thermal energy from cryptocurrency mining, an advanced heat recovery system has been developed, prototyped, and tested. The cryptocurrency miners in an enclosure are cooled by spraying dielectric coolant, then the coolant heated by the mining chips is collected and driven through the spiral heating coil immersed in a 190 L hot water tank. High efficient liquid spray cooling mechanism is the core of this design, by which maximum coolant temperature can reach 70°C in the field trail within the safe temperature limits of mining chips. In practice, this record temperature not only meets the minimum legionellosis risk management requirements for building water systems defined by ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 188-2018 but also provides high-grade energy input to the building, district heating system, or booster heat pump/boiler if needed. In theory, the conventional concept of PUE based on energy has been redefined by the PUE based on exergy. The energy-based PUE is 1.03 and the exergy-based PUE is 0.95 in this case, which can truly reflect the useful energy flow, exergy, in the heat reclaim system.
Ascorbic Acid-assisted Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles: pH and Stability Study
Authors: Guzmán Katherine , Kumar Brajesh , Grijalva Marcelo , Debut Alexis , Cumbal Luis 
Published: September 2022

In this chapter, eco-friendly in situ synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using a mixture of ascorbic acid and citric acid is introduced. The synthesis conditions of the AgNPs were optimized by adjusting the pH of the reaction mixture. Different spectroscopic and microscopic techniques have been used to characterize the physico-chemical properties of AgNPs. The synthesis of AgNPs was primarily identified by the appearance of yellow colour and confirmed by showing λmax = 409 nm in UV-visible spectroscopy. All characterization techniques reveal that the generated AgNPs were non-aggregated, quasi-spherical shapes with an average size of 22.4 ± 13.2 nm, and face-centred cubic crystalline structures. Infrared spectroscopy confirms the surface of AgNPs covered with -COOH group and shows peaks at 1733, 1759, 3262 and 3633 cm−1. Moreover, synthesized AgNPs at pH 10 were stable for one month with a slight change in size. A straightforward, facile and environmentally-friendly synthesis of highly stable AgNPs may contribute to future engineering applications.
The Kingdom’s Shōnen Heart
Authors: Hutchinson Rachael 
Published: September 2022

Taken by themselves, neither Disney nor Square Enix appears particularly successful at transcultural expression, although both are certainly marketing juggernauts in transmedia franchise operations (Smoodin, 1994; Consalvo, 2013). Disney may be understood in terms of American postwar cultural imperialism, while Square Enix is deeply rooted in conventions of Japanese storytelling. But together, somehow the two achieve a synergy in Kingdom Hearts (2002), coalescing in the figure of Sora, its youthful protagonist. This article performs a close reading of Sora’s visual character design, a transcultural melding of Walt Disney’s own Mickey Mouse and the shōnen figure of earlier Nomura Tetsuya creations. While gameplay dynamics point to a new action-adventure style for Square Enix, the shōnen characteristics of Sora’s appearance combine with his sense of loss and yearning to position the game in the JRPG genre. Transculturality of the non-player characters (NPCs) in Kingdom Hearts is then considered. These character designs remain static, anchored to their original reference texts. Where the Disney characters fit their settings in an uncomplicated way, providing escapism and nostalgia for the player, Square characters seem to be chosen for their complexity. The use of then-recent Final Fantasy X characters Tidus and Wakka in Destiny Islands is contrasted against the use of darker, brooding characters from older Final Fantasy titles encountered later in the game. Just as loss and yearning define Sora’s shōnen character, the sense of loss manifested by Cloud, Aerith and Leon connect the player to the real-world context of the global late 1990s, speaking to Japanese anxiety following the Hanshin earthquake and Aum Shinrikyo attacks of 1995, and to the despair of ‘Generation X’ following Kurt Cobain’s death in 1994 (Funabashi and Kushner, 2015; Brabazon, 2005). Meanwhile, the deep economic recession of Japan’s ‘lost decade’ (1991-2001) connected perfectly to the post-9/11 unease in America at the time of the game’s release. Overall, I argue that the game’s success stems from its transcultural emphasis on loss and yearning, which fit not only the JRPG genre but also the sense of anxiety pervading both Japan and America at the time.
Finite‐time adaptive fuzzy consensus control for nonlinear multi‐agent systems under switching‐directed topologies
Authors: Guan Shiwen , Pang Hongbo , Li Yongming 
Published: September 2022

SummaryIn this article, a finite‐time adaptive fuzzy consensus control problem is solved for a class of uncertain nonlinear multi‐agent systems (MASs), where the agent of each follower is marked as a non‐strict feedback form. During the control design, a finite‐time fuzzy adaptive controller is obtained by adding power integrator techniques and integrating backstepping design. This presented adaptive fuzzy consensus control scheme can guarantee the closed‐loop system semi‐global finite time bounded. In addition, the tracking error converges to a small neighborhood of the origin with arbitrary switching communication topologies. Finally, the effectiveness for presented control approach can be validated by a simulation example.

Published: September 2022

AbstractNew materials and devices for bioelectronics have emerging applications in healthcare monitoring and disease diagnostics. Hydrogel‐based sensors face great challenges in achieving desirable synergistic performances including intrinsical electron conduction, bacterial resistance, anti‐swelling property, and adhesion to tissues. To address current bottlenecks, poly(Cu‐arylacetylide) derived hydrogels are developed for the first time that demonstrates all these above intriguing performances as a result of the special Cu‐arylacetylide backbone. The hydrogels show the capability of recording electrocardiogram (ECG), electromyogram, implantable epicardial ECG, and transmitting neural signals. Furthermore, the Cu (I) in polymer chains can be substituted by other metal ions such as Au (I), which can create numerous new materials with intriguing performances. This study not only creates a new research field of hydrogels but advances design concepts for implantable electrodes to record bio‐electron.

Published: September 2022

AbstractConsiderable research efforts have aimed to control indoor temperatures to improve daily life and industrial production. However, current strategies, which involve active regulation of energy input or passive regulation of sunlight transmission, cannot control indoor temperatures under all weather conditions. Herein, a self‐adaptive thermal management device (STMD) that uses solar energy (heating) and radiative cooling (cooling) by exploiting the temperature differences across the device is reported. The adaptive heating and cooling functions are achieved by modulating sunlight transmittance and reflectance using a porous SiO2 coating separated/merged with a refractive index‐matched liquid which serves as a shutter. As a result, the STMD in the opaque mode exhibits low transmittance and in the transparent mode exhibits sufficiently high solar transmittance. Taking advantage of this self‐regulated shuttering mechanism, the developed STMD enables i) an increase of ≈10 °C relative to the ambient temperature under a solar intensity of 400 W m−2 in cold weather and ii) a temperature reduction of ≈5 °C under a solar intensity exceeding 900 W m−2 in hot weather. The described design strategy offers an approach for constructing smart light‐controlling devices and thermal‐controlling building materials.

Published: September 2022

AbstractMXenes have attracted significant attention from the scientific community because of various unique properties that make them appropriate for various attractive applications. As a fast grooming family, owing to 2D transition metal carbides (TMC) as well as transition metal nitrides (TMN), demonstrates versatile promising properties for electrochemical devices. Currently, only a few reports show that MXene nanocomposites possess extraordinary optoelectronic properties. This review briefly discusses the structural and surface chemistry with the extent of optoelectronic properties that can be facilitated in MXenes‐based photonic devices. The systematic synthetic methodologies are also introduced, which are the most suitable for targeted device fabrication. The next and core part of the review is the applications. The current review aims to grasp all possible photonic based‐applications, including solar cells, photodetectors, light emitting diode (LED), phototransistors, and photodiodes, with deep insight into the mechanisms, working conditions, stability parameters, and performance of each type of device. Finally, but most significantly, prospective provides a comprehensive thought and road map for future research possibilities to use these well‐known materials in energy harvesting devices.

Published: September 2022

AbstractObjectivesBreast‐feeding is sensitive to somatic, hormonal, behavioral and psychological components of maternal capital. However, through grandmothering, older women may also influence breast‐feeding by transferring informational resources to their daughters. We hypothesized that mothers with prolonged instrumental support from their own mother are more likely to have received advice and to have favorable attitudes/practices regarding breastfeeding, compared to those lacking such support, with implications for the grandchild's somatic capital.MethodsWe recruited 90 mother‐infant dyads (52 with grandmaternal support, 38 without) in Merida, Yucatan, Mexico. All children were first‐borns, aged ~2 years. Anthropometry and body composition were assessed. Data on grandmother's breastfeeding advice and maternal breastfeeding duration were obtained by questionnaire. Maternal attitudes to breast‐feeding were assessed using the Iowa Infant Feeding Attitude Scale.ResultsWomen with instrumental support were more likely to have received grandmaternal advice during pregnancy/infancy on exclusive breast‐feeding duration (60% vs. 37%, p = 0.033) and the type of first complementary food (81% vs. 47%, p = 0.001). However, women with support had a less favorable attitude to breastfeeding than those without and breastfed their children for less time (median 5 vs. 10.5 months, p = 0.01). No group differences were found in children's length, weight, skinfolds or lean mass z‐score.DiscussionAlthough grandmothers providing instrumental support provided advice regarding breastfeeding, their attitudes may reflect issues beyond nutritional health. Advice of maternal grandmothers did not promote extended breastfeeding, however the differences in breastfeeding attitudes were not associated with the children's nutritional status. Grandmothers should be included in public health interventions promoting breastfeeding.

ObjectiveTo investigate stroke outcomes at 3, 6, and 12 months post‐stroke overall and by ethnicity in a population‐based, longitudinal study.MethodsFirst‐ever ischemic strokes (2014–2019, n = 1,332) among Mexican American persons (n = 807) and non‐Hispanic white persons (n = 525) were identified from the Brain Attack Surveillance in Corpus Christi Project. Data were collected from patient or proxy interviews (baseline, 3, 6, and 12 months post‐stroke) and medical records, including functional (activities of daily living/instrumental activities of daily living score), neurological (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale), cognitive (Modified Mini‐Mental State Examination), and quality of life (QOL) outcomes (12‐domain Stroke‐specific Quality of Life scale). Outcome trajectories were analyzed using multivariable adjusted linear models, with generalized estimating equations to account for within‐subject correlations; interactions between ethnicity and time were included to investigate ethnic differences in outcomes.ResultsThe median age was 67 years (interquartile range 58,78), 48.5% were women, and 60.6% were Mexican American persons. For all outcomes, significant improvement was seen between 3 and 6 months (p < 0.05 for all), with stability between 6 and 12 months. Mexican American persons had significantly worse outcomes compared with non‐Hispanic white persons at all time points (3, 6, and 12 months), with the exception of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, which did not differ by ethnicity at 6 and 12 months, and the average change in outcomes did not vary significantly by ethnicity.InterpretationOutcomes were at their worst at 3 months post‐stroke, and ethnic disparities were already present, suggesting the need for early assessment and strategies to improve outcomes and possibly reduce disparities.

Primary Gas Pressure Standard Passes Next Stress Test
Authors: Gaiser Christof , Fellmuth Bernd , Sabuga Wladimir 
Published: September 2022

AbstractIn 2020, Nature Physics 16, 177 (2020) presented a primary gas‐pressure standard, based on temperature and electrical measurements and ab initio calculations of the thermophysical properties of helium. It is compared against the world's most accurate primary mechanical pressure standard and the test is successful with a relative uncertainty of 5 parts per million (ppm) at about 7 MPa. This is feasible for two reasons. First, the experimental setup developed for the determination of the Boltzmann constant is capable of achieving a combined relative uncertainty on the level of 2 ppm and the primary mechanical pressure standard 1 ppm. The latter consists of two pressure balances with five piston‐cylinder assemblies. Second, the uncertainties of the theoretical calculations in 2020 are on the level of about 4 ppm. Within the last two years, significant improvement has been achieved for all theoretical quantities involved, and the uncertainty contribution of the theory is below the level of 1 ppm. With doubled sensitivity, the thermodynamic gas‐pressure standard is compared to the most accurate mechanical pressure standard. This stress test for theory and experiment is once again successful.
Enhanced miscibility of PBAT/PLA/lignin upon γ‐irradiation and effects on the non‐isothermal crystallization

Published: September 2022

AbstractLignin is natural and renewable polymer, the second most abundant on Earth. Properly used it can reduce synthetic and oil based materials in addition to contributing to the biodegradable systems. In this work, the kraft lignin was subjected to gamma radiation at absorbed doses of 30, 60, and 90 KGy in order to increase the interaction with “Poly(butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT)/Poly(lactic acid) (PLA)” blend (Ecovio®). PBAT/PLA/lignin blends with 10% of the weight of lignin were produced by extrusion using twin‐screw extruder and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE‐SEM). FTIR spectra showed partial miscibility between PBAT/PLA and lignin, most due to the hydrogen bond between PBAT/PLA carbonyl and lignin hydroxyl, being intensified in irradiated lignin compounds. As evidenced on DSC scans, in PBAT/PLA/irradiated lignin the crystallization peak was shifted to lower temperatures and the crystallization rate decreased. Crystallization kinetics was modeled using Pseudo Avrami, and isoconversional models of Friedman and Vyazovkin. Pseudo‐Avrami displayed linearity deviation at beginning and crystallization ending due to the nucleation and secondary crystallization, while from Friedman and Vyazovkin the activation energy () was higher for PBAT/PLA/irradiated lignin 30 KGy, characterizing crystallization with higher energy consumption. FE‐SEM images showed better dispersion and miscibility in PBAT/PLA/irradiated lignin. The results indicate that the irradiation of Kraft lignin promotes miscibility and compatibility of PBAT/PLA/lignin.
Strategic Design of Luminescent Rhenium(I), Ruthenium(II), and Iridium(III) Complexes as Activity‐Based Probes for Bioimaging and Biosensing
Authors: Lee Lawrence Cho‐Cheung , Lo Kenneth Kam‐Wing 
Published: September 2022

AbstractThe rapid development of responsive fluorescent probes has advanced optical imaging for biological research and biomedical applications. Among different sensing strategies, activity‐based sensing, which exploits the unique reactivity of the target chemical species to achieve high chemoselectivity, has emerged as a promising paradigm for the development of responsive probes for selective molecular imaging. Luminescent transition metal complexes have received considerable attention for bioimaging and biosensing applications over the last decade due to their remarkable photophysical behavior including intense emission with large Stokes’ shifts, long emission lifetimes, strong two‐photon absorption, and high photostability. In this Review, we summarize the design strategies and applications of luminescent complexes of rhenium(I), ruthenium(II), and iridium(III) polypyridines as activity‐based probes for the detection of various chemical species and bioactive molecules in live cells and organisms. The current challenges and future prospects of these complexes as activatable reagents for disease diagnosis and treatment are also discussed.
Does the presence of an environmental committee strengthen the impact of board gender diversity on corporate environmental disclosure? Evidence from sub‐Saharan Africa

Published: September 2022

AbstractThis study examines the relationship between board gender diversity, the presence of environmental committees and corporate environmental disclosure (CED). Using 1130 firm‐year observations of 113 firms listed across five sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA) stock markets from 2010 to 2019, we find that the extent of CED in SSA is low compared with developed countries. However, panel quantile regression analysis reveals that the presence of women directors is positively associated with CED, and the relationship is contingent on the presence of an environmental committee. The study makes three principal contributions: It adds to the limited literature on the relationship between board gender diversity and CED, where virtually all previous studies have been conducted in developed countries; it is the first to examine the direct relationship between environmental committees and CED in the developing world; and, most importantly, it is the first study to examine the possible moderating influence of environmental committees.
