Hormonal and non-hormonal therapies are available to treat them. **Zusammenfassung** Wechseljahre und...

The aim of this paper is to show how an “Urban Metabolism” approach can be used for analysing, designing, and optimizing material and energy flows and stocks in human settlements. For this purpose, material flow analysis (MFA) and substance flow analysis (SFA) is applied in a rigid way to quantitati...

A semi-analytic algorithm for the analysis of dynamie intera.ction between an elasto­viscoplastic beam and the linear compressible fluid in a rectangular containment is presented. The inelastic parts of the strain in the beam are treated as unknown eigenstrains acting upon the linear elastic backgr...

<p>Persistent drought conditions may alter catchment response to precipitation, both during and after the drought period, hindering accurate streamflow forecasting of high flows and floods. Yet, the influence of drought characteristics on the catchment response to precipitation remains unclear...

Background. For patients with hypertension, effective 24-hour blood pressure (BP) control is vital to ensure protection against the early morning surge in BP and the associated increased risk of cardiovascular events. The aim of this analysis was to assess the 24-hour antihypertensive efficacy of ol...

<p>The occurrence of extreme suspended sediment concentrations (SSCs) in rivers can have negative impacts on human infrastructure, water quality, and the health of aquatic ecosystems. However, most existing studies have focused on the SSC dynamics of individual catchments or single events. Con...

Transitions from dry to wet states challenge water management and can lead to severe impacts. While meteorological transitions from dry-to-wet spells are well studied, it is yet unclear how, and if, they propagate to hydrological transitions. Here, we study where and why seasonal meteorological tran...

Four of the stations newly opened during the underground extension of the U2 line in Vienna in 2008 have been covering a large part of their heating and cooling needs for now almost one and a half decades by using geothermal energy, which is generated by means of energy diaphragm walls, energy pile...

<h4>Background</h4>Since 2007, the Budapest criteria are recommended for the diagnosis of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) 1. The usefulness of bone scintigraphy (BS, index test) for the diagnosis of CRPS 1 remains controversial. Imperfect reference tests (RT) result in underestimat...

The acceleration of social life, as theorized by Hartmut Rosa, has profoundly transformed academic work, particularly in the social sciences and humanities. This paper examines how the three dimensions of acceleration—technical acceleration, the acceleration of social change, and the acceleration of...
