In this letter, the first measurement of the femtoscopic correlation of protons and Σ+ hyperons is presented and used to study the p–Σ+ interaction. The measurement is performed with the ALICE detector in high-multiplicity triggered pp collisions at s=13 TeV. The Σ+ hyperons are reconstructed using a missing-mass approach in the decay channel to p+π0 with π0→γγ, while both Σ+ and protons are ident
Addressing global water crises demands effective communication across diverse audiences, especially in initiatives such as the scientific decade HELPING by the International Association of Hydrological Sciences (IAHS). This study synthesizes insights from the hydrological community, gathered through interviews, workshops and a digital survey. We identify key challenges and best practices across th
Background The COVID-19 pandemic has underlined the essential role of primary healthcare (PHC) in epidemiological surveillance and public health decision-making. Across Europe, the integration of electronic health records (EHRs) and the sentinel networks have been pivotal in monitoring COVID-19. However, the lack of standardized PHC indicators for COVID-19 hinders the comparability of data among c
Background Type 1 diabetes begins with autoimmunity against pancreatic islet antigens, including insulin. The aim of the Primary Oral Insulin Trial (POInT) was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of daily high-dose oral insulin to prevent the development of islet autoantibodies and diabetes. Methods In this randomised, controlled, primary prevention trial, genetic screening in seven obstetric and
Följande paper-presentation behandlar aspekter av ett doktorandprojekt i startgroparna. Hannes Wikströms musikpedagogiska studie faller under kategorin praktiknära forskning, i och med dess ambition att bidra till att stärka band och kontaktytor mellan forskningsmiljö och Kulturskolans pedagogiska praktik, samt dess vilja att låta skolpersonalens och elevernas röster, behov och frågeställningar tj
Herein, we present a case of severe immune-related adverse events (irAEs), myocarditis with myositis, and myasthenia gravis overlap syndrome (IM3OS) in a patient receiving an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI), as adjuvant therapy after surgery for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. An 80-year-old woman who had undergone a total cystectomy for bladder cancer presented with ptosis, diplopia, and paraly
BackgroundIn the event of a major incident, collaboration between the ambulance service, fire brigade and police is common. Effective collaboration requires teamwork, with communication between the three organisations being crucial. Leadership functions should be integrated in a way that leverages organisation-specific capabilities, enabling interprofessional collaboration where diverse profession
BackgroundAmbulance clinicians increasingly refer patients to self-care, positioning ambulance service within a wider gatekeeping role and necessitating the assessment of whether self-care is a safe option or if further support is needed. Contrary to primary healthcare centre (PHC) referrals, self-care referrals often lack structured follow-ups, with the decision consequences remaining underexplor
Background: General practitioners (GPs) do not see men with localised urinary tract infection (UTI) very often which limits their possibility of developing expertise in the area. To gain knowledge of male patients' experiences and perspectives on localised UTIs, qualitative research is needed.Aim: To explore expectations, experiences and symptoms in men with localised urinary tract infection in prBackgroundGeneral practitioners (GPs) do not see men with localised urinary tract infection (UTI) very often which limits their possibility of developing expertise in the area.

Acute postoperative pain remains a major clinical challenge, affecting both recovery and resource utilisation. Beyond nociceptive input, pain is shaped by cognitive and emotional factors, including patient expectations. This narrative review examines the role of expectations in perioperative pain modulation, framed within predictive coding and Bayesian inference models. These models conceptualise
This thesis conducts a semiotic study of British colonial stamps produced between 1890 and 1960. The main focus is the stamp's message and ideology, understood within the theoretical framework of Roland Barthes and complemented with postcolonial theory by Anne Kaplan and John MacKenzie. The study concludes that two main mythologies can be constructed by analysing the samples, one regarding the
This thesis examines how the architecture of Landskrona Konsthall is experienced. Building on a formalist analysis, it investigates two distinct phenomenological perspectives, Wölfflin’s concept of spatial forces and Rasmussen’s emphasis on sensory perception. Methodologically, the study combines reading of theory with on-site field observations, in which visual and sensory impressions are documen
QR decomposition (QRD) is a computationally-intensive matrix factorization method which is widely used in signal processing. Meeting the stringent processing budgets of real-time applications necessitates dedicated hardware acceleration. This thesis presents the architecture and Register-Transfer-Level (RTL) implementation of a QRD accelerator based on Givens rotations, specifically designed to ac
This thesis evaluates the ability of three hand-calculation models for estimating overpressure from hydrogen vapour cloud explosions. The models were the TNT, TNO and OHVE models. The aim was to assess their performance in realistic release environments and identify their strengths and limitations. Model predictions were validated against experimental data from three experimental setups: a refuell
We report on the synthesis and characterization of polyesters and copolyesters derived from a rigid aromatic cyclobutane diester monomer, 3,4-dimethoxytruxillic acid dimethyl ester (DMDMTr), prepared via [2 + 2] photodimerization of 3,4-dimethoxycinnamic acid. Using an optimized two-step melt transesterification–polycondensation method, DMDMTr was polymerized with various aliphatic diols to yield
CONTEXT: Uptake of organic farming falls short of stated sustainability targets, particularly in highly productive regions where adoption could mitigate environmental impacts of intensive farming. Several hypotheses have been advanced to explain the constraints on adoption, but these have not been assessed within an integrative, interdisciplinary framework.OBJECTIVE: The objective was to develop a
Aluminum is a promising carbon-free energy carrier, but advancing its use requires detailed understanding of its combustion behavior at the single-particle level. Measuring the transient surface temperatures of burning aluminum droplets is particularly challenging due to their small size, extreme temperatures, and fast dynamics. In this work, we demonstrate a multispectral pyrometry approach based
The pseudorapidity distribution of charged hadrons produced in Au+Au collisions at a center-of-mass energy of sNN = 200 GeV is measured using data collected by the sPHENIX detector. Charged hadron yields are extracted by counting cluster pairs in the inner and outer layers of the Intermediate Silicon Tracker, with corrections applied for detector acceptance, reconstruction efficiency, combinatoria
