Textbook of Gynecologic Robotic Surgery

This book is not only a compilation of the knowledge and experiences of the best robotic surgeons around the world, but it has also incorporated the recent advances and updates in Gynaecological surgery. It is designed to provide a detailed guide to common robotic Gynaecologic procedures for the purpose of helping novice surgeons in their transition to robotic surgery and seasoned robotic surgeons

Nanowires and Molecular Dyes for Artificial Light-Driven Synapses and Neurons

The development of neuromorphic computing requires devices that can use low power consumption and highly parallel architecture to process and store information, similar to the biological nervous systems. Molecular photoswitches, especially Donor–Acceptor Stenhouse Adducts (DASAs), offer a promising platform for such applications, because they undergo reversible, light-driven structural changes and

Bird-Related Disruption in E.ON's Power Grid

Bird collisions with overhead power lines can cause power outages and raise ecological concerns. This thesis analyses bird-related power disruptions in E.ON Energidistribution AB’s Swedish power grid during the period 2009–2025. The aims are to analyse the impact of bird-related outages relative to other causes and to evaluate whether bird diverters reduce such disruptions. The study is based on d

The Emotional Interaction of Judicial Objectivity

Like other Western legal systems, the Swedish legal system constructs objectivity as an unemotional state of being. We argue that the enactment of objectivity in situ relies on objectivity work including emotion management and empathy. Building on qualitative interviews and observations in Swedish district courts, we analyse courtroom interaction through a dramaturgical lens, highlighting tacit siLike other Western legal systems, the Swedish legal system constructs objectivity as an unemotional state of being.

Introducing an Interdisciplinary Frontier to Judging, Emotion and Emotion Work

This special issue of Oñati Socio-Legal Series, titled Judging, Emotion and Emotion Work, is the result of presentations and discussions during an interdisciplinary workshop at the International Institute for the Sociology of Law (IISL) held in May 2018. This issue builds on the growing critique of the dispassionate ideal of judicial work, combining original theoretical insights with imaginative e

A sociological perspective on emotions in the judiciary

Introducing a sociological perspective on judicial emotions, we argue that previous studies underemphasize structural andinteractional dimensions. Through key concepts in the sociology of emotions we relate professional court actors’ emotionmanagement to the emotional regime of the judiciary. Examples from the Swedish judiciary illustrate three main arguments:(a) The idea of rational justice as noIntroducing a sociological perspective on judicial emotions, we argue that previous studies underemphasize structural andinteractional dimensions.

Achieving subtemporal resolution in the analysis of two-state single-molecule trajectories

Although spatial resolution in fluorescence microscopy and related fields has advanced to the nanometer scale, time resolution has remained essentially unchanged and is set by the camera system’s imaging time. Yet adequate time resolution is crucial for information acquisition about, for instance, dynamical processes in cells. This acquisition typically proceeds by analyzing biomolecular trajector

Unmet needs and inequalities in sexuality, consent and relationships education: a cross-sectional study of upper secondary school students in Sweden

Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) is central to promoting adolescents’ sexual health and rights. In Sweden, CSE is now referred to as Sexuality, Consent and Relationships (SCR) education, following a curriculum revision in 2022. This study explored how upper secondary school students (aged 16–19) experienced SCR education. A digital questionnaire was completed in the classroom by 1378 studen

Elevated asporin expression in human atherosclerotic plaques promotes their stability and reduces the risk for cardiovascular events

AIMS: Vascular atherosclerotic calcification is a pathological process marked by the abnormal deposition of calcium minerals in the intima. Asporin (ASPN) is a small leucine-rich proteoglycan which interacts with collagen and calcium. Due to its role in matrix mineralization, we hypothesized that ASPN might act as a regulator of vascular calcification, thereby promoting atherosclerotic plaque stab

Skin and Subcutis

Morphologic diagnosis of inflammatory skin lesions is traditionally performed with punch biopsies or incisional biopsies. Skin nodules are excised for both curative and diagnostic purposes. Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of skin nodules offers the possibility of avoiding surgical biopsy and provides rapid diagnosis, making it a valuable examination tool in cases of metastatic depositions i

Swedish primary forests: factors behind their persistence and potential suitability as natural baselines

ContextPrimary forests, with little to no direct human impact, can serve as baselines to assess land-use effects. However, most have been converted for other land-uses and the locations and characteristics of the remaining forests are poorly characterized.ObjectivesThis study presents a map of Swedish primary forests, explores their persistence in a managed landscape, and assesses their suitabilit
