The fundamental principles that govern antiferroelectric (AFE)-ferroelectric (FE) transitions are not well understood for many solid solutions of perovskite compounds. For example, crystal chemical considerations based on the average Goldschmidt tolerance factor or ionic polarizability do not precisely predict the boundary between the AFE and FE phases in dilute solid solutions of alkali niobates,

Clinical pain is often linked to poor body mechanics, with individuals sometimes presenting multiple painful disorders. Such disorders may be influenced by behaviors that affect the general resiliency and health of the musculoskeletal system. We aimed to develop a self-reported scale using the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study questions on work-related body mechanical exposures. An expert panel identifi

Myxoid liposarcoma (MLS) is molecularly characterized by fusions involving the DDIT3 gene in chromosome band 12q13; the fusion partner is FUS in band 16p11 in 90–95% of the cases and EWSR1 in band 22q12 in the remaining 5–10%. Hence, molecular studies, often fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for DDIT3 rearrangement, are useful for establishing a correct diagnosis. Although all MLS tumors s

Background: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) represent a diagnostic challenge. This prospective multicenter study was conducted to evaluate pre-defined flow cytometric markers in the diagnostic work-up of MDS and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). Methods: Thousand six hundred and eighty-two patients with suspected MDS/CMML were analyzed by both cytomorphology according to WHO 2016 criteria an

Introduction: Intussusceptions diagnosed on computed tomography (CT) scans in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) patients could cause serious small bowel obstruction (SBO) or be an incidental finding. The objective of this study was to correlate radiological findings with clinical outcomes to differentiate intussusceptions requiring emergent surgery for SBO. Methods: A search for acute abdominal CT s

In situ stability studies of an IrO2(110)-TiO2(110) model electrode are carried out under acidic water electrolysis conditions, employing synchrotron-based techniques including surface X-ray diffraction (SXRD) and X-ray reflectometry (XRR) with a photon energy of 21.5 keV. These experiments are complemented by ex situ scanning electron microscopy (SEM), scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), and X-r

The photoluminescence (PL) of metal halide perovskites can recover after light or current-induced degradation. This self-healing ability is tested by acting mechanically on MAPbI3 polycrystalline microcrystals by an atomic force microscope tip (applying force, scratching, and cutting) while monitoring the PL. Although strain and crystal damage induce strong PL quenching, the initial balance betwee

The agriculture sector can contribute to climate change mitigation by reducing its own greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, sequestering carbon in vegetation and soils, and providing biomass to substitute for fossil fuels and other GHG-intensive products. The sector also needs to address water, soil, and biodiversity impacts caused by historic and current practices. Emerging EU policies create incentiv

The Public Health Agency of Sweden carried out a literature review on diphtheria vaccinations for seronegative people above 6 years of age with an uncertain vaccine history. The aim was to harmonise national Swedish recommendations with the current World Health Organization recommendations. There was no firm conclusion about dosage. Some low-dose vaccines used in the past had suboptimal potency, w

Begreppshistoria är en etablerad metod i humanistisk forskning och ligger till grund för en rad monumentala arbeten utomlands, men har inte ägnats något betydande samlingsverk i Sverige – förrän nu. I Svenska begreppshistorier bidrar ett fyrtiotal idéhistoriker och andra humanister till en ökad förståelse av den historiska process där våra vardagliga och vetenskapliga begrepp tagit form. Tydligt b

Aim: Analysis of age at time of detection and surgery of dense unilateral cataract and investigation of best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in a nationwide register-based cohort study, based on the routine of maternity ward eye screening. Methods: Data were derived from the Paediatric Cataract Register (PECARE). All children (n = 54) diagnosed with dense congenital unilateral cataract between Janu

The key question addressed in this chapter is the extent to which the European Public Prosecutor’s Office (EPPO) is a suitable model for a future ‘federal’ system of European criminal law. The analysis approaches that question especially by studying the relationship between EPPO, national sovereignty and legitimacy. On this basis, the first section of this chapter proceeds to comprehensively analy

Using the example of SÅLE - Et dansekunstverk i tre deler, performed at the Ultima Contemporary Music Festival in Oslo in September 2022, this article argues that festival directors are not the only curators in New Music, that we need to realise there are already more curators, and that this recognition will help us rethink our approach to curating in New Music. The article then explores some of t

Objectives: To examine the relationship between the English index of multiple deprivation (IMD) and the incidence of pre-eclampsia (PE), evaluate the distribution of IMD in a cohort of ethnically diverse pregnant women in South East England and assess whether IMD improves the prediction of PE compared with that provided by the ‘history-only’ competing-risks model (based on maternal characteristics

Food systems transformation is critical for meeting our climate goals, and for ensuring individual health and food security by boosting resilience to external shocks. We face the challenge of producing enough nutritious food for our growing global population, whilst reducing our environmental impact at a time of increased competition and scarcity of resources. Protein diversification can play an i

Denna artikel diskuterar frågan om hur sjukpenninggrundande inkomst bestäms i relation till plattformsarbetare och potentiella konsekvenser eller behov av förändringar till följd av det föreslagna plattformsdirektivet. Artikeln syftar till att belysa hur förändringar inom arbetsrättenockså kan medföra indirekta konsekvenser inom socialförsäkringsrätten. I artikeln diskuteras det föreslagna plattfo
