The Cueing Power of Comments on Social Media : How Disagreement in Facebook Comments Affects User Engagement with News

Previous research demonstrates that conflict framing in news articles can influence individuals’ attention, selection, and distribution of news. However, no study has examined whether the valence of social media comment fields can trigger similar effects for news engagement on Facebook. In this mixed-methods study, we combine eye tracking with surveys, and conduct an experiment in which participan

Extracellular-Matrix-Reinforced Bioinks for 3D Bioprinting Human Tissue

Recent advances in 3D bioprinting allow for generating intricate structures with dimensions relevant for human tissue, but suitable bioinks for producing translationally relevant tissue with complex geometries remain unidentified. Here, a tissue-specific hybrid bioink is described, composed of a natural polymer, alginate, reinforced with extracellular matrix derived from decellularized tissue (rEC

Brigadier General Hossein Dehghan—Iran’s Next President?

Brigadier General Hossein Dehghan, a commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, has announced his candidacy for the Iranian presidential elections in June 2021. Dehghan has a toxic military background. In the 1980s he was responsible for the vicious crackdown on opponents of the Islamic regime, and he played a central role in the bombing of the US Marine barracks in Beirut that killed hun

Så kan e-handeln fixa returerna

Att returer är en huvudvärk för e-handelsföretagen är inget nytt samtalsämne. Men strategierna för att hantera sina returer talas det mindre om. Lärdomen från den sammantagna forskningen från de senaste tio åren pekar däremot åt ett relativt tydligt håll för e-handlaren. Här kommer sex råd om vad de bör tänka på när de bygger sin strategi för returhantering.That returns are a headache for e-commerce companies is not a new topic of conversation. But the strategies for managing their returns are less talked about. The lessons learned from the overall research from the last ten years, on the other hand, point in a relatively clear direction for the e-retailer. Here are six tips on what to keep in mind when formulating your return management strategy.

Crash modification functions for pavement surface condition and geometric design indicators

The combined contribution to highway safety of pavement surface and geometric design indicators is not well investigated due to the complexity of data collection and high time variability of pavement surface conditions. Introduction of high efficiency equipment for comprehensive road surveys is mitigating this issue, expanding possibilities of data integration. In this framework, the present study

Improving patient-assessed outcomes after cataract surgery

Purpose: To identify and evaluate possible causes of poor patient-reported visual function after cataract surgery. Methods: We obtained retrospective data from the Swedish National Cataract Register on patient self-assessed visual function before and after cataract surgery based on the Catquest-9SF questionnaire. We identified patients who self-reported similar or more difficulties postoperatively

Long-term patient survival in a Swedish population-based cohort of patients with ANCA-associated vasculitis

Objectives: Patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmatic antibodies-associated vasculitides (AAV) exhibit higher mortality than the general population. In the current study, we assessed whether cluster affiliation based on clinical presentation might predict mortality. Methods: With case record review, the outcomes for a population-based cohort of patients diagnosed with AAV in southern Sweden (catc

Loss of the tumor suppressor gene AIP mediates the browning of human brown fat tumors

Human brown fat tumors (hibernomas) display concomitant loss of the tumor suppressor genes MEN1 and AIP. In the present study, we hypothesized that the brown fat phenotype is attributed to these mutations. Accordingly, we demonstrate that silencing of AIP in human brown preadipocytic and white fat cell lines results in the induction of the brown fat marker UCP1. In human adipocytic tumors, loss of

The impact of clinical practice on the outcome of central venous access devices in children with haemophilia

Introduction: Central venous access devices facilitate home treatment in boys with haemophilia. These are usually fully implanted lines, referred to as ports. Caregivers are taught to manage the port using sterile techniques and maintaining patency by flushing with saline or heparin solution. National and international guidelines for the home care of ports are lacking. Aim: To evaluate if infectio

The Interrater Reliability of the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) in Clinical Settings

Background: The Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) is considered a first choice assessment tool in autism spectrum disorder. Nevertheless, despite its wide use in psychiatric practice and recommendations by various clinical guidelines, its interrater reliability has predominantly been confirmed in research settings by specially trained, research reliability interviewers. The reliability o

Småstäder och andra orter i senmedeltidens Småland

Late medieval towns have often been neglected within the urban archaeological paradigm. This article tries to discuss the medieval urbanization from the perspective of small late medieval towns in relation to other types of central places by using a regional perspective. The towns of Vimmerby and Eksjö, and the central places of Värnamo and Vetlanda in Småland are used as examples. In this region,

Skatter i Skåneland

Denna bok är avsedd att vara en vägledning och fördjupning till utställningen Skatter i Skåneland. Boken innehåller dels en kronologisk översikt över såväl det historiska som det numismatiska skeendet i Skåneland under den tid när man där präglade mynt, och dels spännande historier kring de myntfynd som visas i utställningen. Tanken är att boken skall vara besökaren till nytta i utställningen men

Treasures in Skåneland

This book is intended as a guide to the exhibition "Treasures in Skåneland”, providing further information. The book contains a chronological survey of general and numismatic history in Skåneland during the time when coins were minted here, as well as descriptions of the coin finds on show in the exhibition. The idea is that the book will be of use to visitors in the exhibition, while also making
