Design and Methods of the AUTOMATED-WCT Trial: Evaluating Machine Learning–Based ECG Support for WCT Interpretation

BACKGROUNDDistinguishing wide complex tachycardia (WCT) as ventricular tachycardia (VT) or supraventricular WCT (SWCT) is critical yet challenging. Manual ECG algorithms require substantial expertise and are inconsistently applied, and contemporary computerized ECG interpretation (CEI) systems often return only a generic “wide complex tachycardia” label. Novel machine learning–based ECG models (So

Implementing explicit and implicit narrative instruction in preschool : Insights from a language intervention study

This study examines how two instructional conditions - explicit and implicit narrative instruction - were implemented in Swedish preschools, drawing on principles from implementation science. Data from 21 preschool departments—including video recordings, teacher interviews, and survey data - were analyzed using a mixed-methods approach. The implicit approach (HINT), focusing on shared reading and

Serine-arginine protein kinase 1 (SRPK1) is under-expressed in mucinous colorectal cancer, and may mediate resistance to oxaliplatin

5-15% of all colorectal cancers (CRCs) are mucinous. Mucinous CRCs are associated with an inhibited response to standard adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapies. Serine-Arginine Protein Kinase 1 (SRPK1) is an enzyme, which modulates the activity of multiple splicing factors. SRPK1 under-expression is associated with resistance to platinum-based chemotherapeutic agents in multiple tumor types. The objec

In Situ Grazing Incidence X-ray Total Scattering Reveals the Effect of the “Two-Step” Method for the Anodization of Aluminum Surfaces

Thanks to its ability to form a lattice of self-ordered nanosized pores, nanoporous anodic aluminum oxide (NP-AAO) is a promising material with diverse applications, for example, as membrane for the controlled deposition of catalysts. NP-AAO is obtained by the anodization of an aluminum substrate under specific pH and voltage conditions. However, the growth mechanism of the oxide is still under de

Assessment of Learning Process and Facilitating Understanding of How to Use an AT: Guidance for Applying the ALP-tool

Provision of assistive technologies (AT) is strongly connected to applying a person-centred approach, with focus on exploring the person’s individual abilities, needs and desires, to enable provision of matching AT. In the process of provision, it is also important to assess and facilitate the person’s understanding of how to use the AT, to enhance optimal usage and enable AT integration in everyd

Spatiotemporal quantification of AlO around a burning micro-sized Al droplet using laser absorption imaging

By combining the quantitative advantage of laser absorption spectroscopy and the superior spatiotemporal resolution of high-speed microscopic imaging, we report, for the first time, the transient aluminum monoxide (AlO) concentration distribution around a burning micro-sized aluminum droplet in water-vapor-rich ambient. Arrangement of two lasers at resonant and non-resonant wavelengths, respective

Transpassive-repassivation process of Ni-base superalloys : The role of hidden subsurface alloy layer

Passivity refers to spontaneous formation of a passive film on the surface of metals. High stability of the passive film on advanced alloys relies on the repassivation ability of the alloys in corrosive environments. Two Ni-base superalloys (Ni-22Cr-9Mo-5Fe-2Nb and Ni-18Cr-3Mo-20Fe-5Nb) are studied to elucidate the mechanism of repassivation through a combination of multimodal in-situ synchrotron

A tradition beyond numbers : The Swedish Management Audit in historical perspective

In Sweden, the statutory audit extends beyond the financial statement audit. It mandates an audit of the company’s administration by the board and the managing director (management audit). Despite being a national tradition since the mid seventeenth century and resisting various harmonisation efforts, the practice remains under-researched in accounting history. This study aims to analyse the devel

Carbon-14 in the marine environment of Ringhals nuclear power plant

The C-14 results from the study demonstrate that, although the liquid discharges from the Ringhals Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) are assumed to be small compared to the total operational C-14 releases, the resulting C-14 levels in marine biota can be substantially higher than in terrestrial biota. The fndings indicate that the chemical speciation of discharged C-14 plays a critical role in its transfe

Navigating the Digital Frontier: The Implications of Tax Technology on Systems of Expertise and Legitimacy in Taxation

Digitalization is transforming the tax landscape, reshaping the operations of tax departments, authorities, and professionals. With rapid digital advancement, there has been a shift toward real-time reporting, e-invoicing, and greater reliance on digital data. This change is driven by investments in data analytics, robotic process automation, cloud platforms, and, more recently, artificial intelli

Disentangling future effects of climate change and forest disturbance on vegetation composition and land surface properties of the boreal forest

Forest disturbances can cause shifts in boreal vegetation cover from predominantly evergreen to deciduous trees or non-forest dominance. This, in turn, impacts land surface properties and, potentially, regional climate. Accurately considering such shifts in future projections of vegetation dynamics under climate change is crucial but hindered (e.g., uncertainties in future disturbance regimes). In

Preschool remodelling through systemic (ex)change

Based on the experiences from a social innovation process ofSwedish preschool remodelling – aiming to enhance equal and inclusivelearning and play – the study investigates socio-material dimensions incomplex multi-actor/level (ex)change. Previous studies on systemic changethrough social innovation ecosystems help reveal dynamics and challenges inthe coordination of varying logics and interests amo

Experiences of Swedish Parents Seeking Social Services Support for Their Adult Children With Drug Addiction

Objective: Family members of a person with drug addiction often experience negative impacts on their lives and face barriers to seeking professional support. More knowledge is needed about such barriers so they can be reduced. This article examines the help-seeking experiences of parents of adult children with drug addiction, a group that has received little attention in research. Method: We condu

The pros and cons of supervised urine tests in opioid replacement therapy : A study of patients' experiences

Background: In opioid replacement therapy (ORT), drug testing is performed continuously to ensure that patients are taking their prescribed medication, and to detect whether they have taken other, non-prescribed, substances. Typically, supervised urine testing is conducted, and in Sweden such testing is often an ORT precondition. Aim: This study investigates ORT patients’ experiences of and views
