Background: Combined CDK4/6 inhibitor (CDK4/6i) and endocrine therapy significantly improve the outcome of patients with advanced estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer. However, resistance to this treatment and disease progression remains a major clinical challenge. High expression of the receptor tyrosine kinase REarranged during Transfection (RET) has been associated with resistance to

A new microphysical treatment that includes aerosol–cloud interactions and secondary ice production (SIP) mechanisms is implemented in the convection scheme of the Community Atmosphere Model, version 6 (CAM6). The approach is to embed a 1D Lagrangian parcel model in the bulk convective plume of the existing deep convection parameterization. Aerosol activation, growth processes including collision/

Introduction: Knee pain increases the risk of developing chronic widespread pain (CWP) and knee osteoarthritis (KOA). The prevalence of CWP and KOA has increased, and there is a need for early prevention. Therefore, the aim was to examine the associations of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and lifestyle habits with chronic pain at a two-year follow-up in individuals with knee pain. Methods:

The advancement of disease-modifying treatments (DMTs) for Alzheimer's disease (AD), along with the approval of three amyloid-targeting therapies in the US and several other countries, represents a significant development in the treatment landscape, offering new hope for addressing this once untreatable chronic progressive disease. However, significant challenges persist that could impede the succ

During the evolution of parasites, co-speciation and host-range expansion are thought to play roles in establishing associations with hosts, while sorting events can lead to dissolution of those associations. To address the roles of these processes, we focus on avian haemosporidian parasites infecting hosts of the intensively studied great tit species complex. We estimated the phylogeography of li

In situ catalysis studies typically correlate catalytic function and majority surface structures, but neglect that difficult-to-detect minority structures might govern catalysis. Here we use an oscillating CO:O2 gas composition to drive structural oscillations on a catalytically active Pd(100) surface and collect X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy data at high measurement frequency to demonstrate th

Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) are the most promising strategy for reducing the carbon emissions of aviation in the near term, but their combustion behavior is not well understood compared to conventional fuels. This work investigates how different properties of SAF may lead to different emergent combustion behavior by targeting a small set of very distinct fuels. The investigation is carried ou

This paper theorizes conditions accelerating experiential learning within venture creation programs (VCPs). Traditionally, experiential learning theory views learning as a slow and self-directed process. In contrast, VCPs offer time-compressed, enterprise-oriented training structured around predetermined plans and schedules. Our theorizing shifts the primary focus from cyclical movements (“loops”)

In this chapter, we explore the integration of sustainable entrepreneurship education in the context of circular entrepreneurship ecosystems, highlighting the necessity of shifting from traditional profit-centric models towards ones that emphasize sustainability and circular economy principles. We critique current educational practices for overlooking environmental and ethical considerations and a

Aquifer classification plays a pivotal role in understanding groundwater dynamics and informing sustainable water resource management, especially in regions under significant stress from over-extraction. This study presents a novel remote sensing-based methodology for classifying aquifers represented by monitoring wells within the study area. The approach integrates stress-strain analysis, incorpo

Critical reflection and self-reflection are two interrelated abilities universally perceived as fundamental for teachers’ professional practice. In European policy documents, these are also linked to the goal of building and consolidating education for democracy (Lenz et al., 2021, p. 9). Moreover, in the Swedish Higher Education Ordinance, they are mentioned in the second competence-and-skills ou
