This paper examines forest-based bioeconomy innovation in Sweden between 1970 and 2021 to test central claims about innovation complexity, knowledge requirements, collaboration intensity, and industrial life cycle dynamics. Using a comprehensive database of 4,972 commercialized innovations, I identify 649 forest bioeconomy innovations and analyze their characteristics through logistic regression,

Simulation methods in breast imaging offer advantages over clinical trials in terms of improved reproducibility, reduced need for patient exposure to radiation, increased flexibility, and more clearly defined ground truth. Simulation also allows for improved representation of anatomical variations and variations in acquisition parameters and breast positioning related to multimodality imaging. The

Objective: In the present study, we investigated the role of the gut–liver crosstalk in the pathogenesis of steatotic liver disease (SLD) induced by the compounding and deleterious effects of alcohol and metabolic risk factors, and explored the potential translational aspects of microbiome-based interventions. Design: The effects of combined exposure to alcohol and a high-fat, high-cholesterol die

This case study investigates the development of subject-specific literacy in Physical Education and Health (PEH) for second language (L2) learners within a Swedish secondary school context. Integrating Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) and Legitimation Code Theory (LCT), the study introduces the concept of embodied cohesion to analyze how meaning is constructed across verbal, graphic, and phys

In order for any learning-based model to be considered reliable, it needs a well-behaved uncertainty or confidence estimate. Most modern neural networks do produce a confidence estimate in the form of their softmax output probability. However, the softmax probability is invalid for out-of-distribution data. Gaussian processes are known to produce a well-behaved confidence estimate that is aware of

Rapporten visar att det finns en gedigen vetenskaplig evidensbas för att utforma åtgärder inom den gemensamma jordbrukspolitiken som bidrar till restaurering av jordbrukslandskap i linje med EU:s naturrestaureringsförordning. Evidensbasen kan stärkas genom en systematisk sammanställning av resultat från restaureringsprojekt, och författarna föreslår adaptiv restaurering för att hantera kontextbero

Antipsychotic drugs (APD) are commonly prescribed to people living with dementia (PwD) to manage behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD), despite well-documented safety concerns. International guidelines recommend non-pharmacological interventions as first-line treatment, yet APDs remain widely used. This systematic review and meta-analysis synthesize current evidence on the conse

Reliable ankle torque measurements are important in rehabilitation, where strength assessments are used to evaluate recovery and guide treatment. Isokinetic dynamometers, such as the Biodex system, are commonly used to provide controlled measurements of joint torque. However, these measurements rely on the ankle being held in a stable and reproducible position. Mechanical play in the ankle-attachm

This thesis investigates how the right-wing populist German Party Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) presented and framed German development cooperation on the social media platform Facebook during the 20th legislative period (2021-2025). Over the last decades, social media has become an increasingly important tool of political communication and information source for the public. Thus, this study a

OBJECTIVES: To develop a group-based COMbined Fatigue Intervention (COMFI) that integrates a cognitive behavioural approach with physical activity to enhance self-management of fatigue and reduce fatigue severity and impact in people with inflammatory arthritis (IA).METHODS: The development was guided by the British Medical Research Council's framework for complex interventions and was based on: (

We have developed a new reactive force field, ReaxFF, for use in molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to investigate the structures and reactive dynamics of complex metal oxide catalysts. The parameters in ReaxFF are derived directly from QM and have been validated to provide reasonable accuracy for a wide variety of reactions. We report the use of ReaxFF to study the activation and conversion of p

Stationary and mobile field gamma spectrometry is a useful tool for rapid estimation of environmental radioactivity inventories on and in the ground. A weak point however, is that the depth distribution of the activity in the ground must be known in order to calculate the true activity per unit area or unit mass from an observed photon fluence rate. A promising method for converting incoming spect

Background Measuring health-related quality of life (QoL) after surgery is essential for decision making by patients, surgeons, and payers. The aim of this consensus conference was twofold. First, it was to determine for which diseases endoscopic surgery results in better postoperative QoL than open surgery. Second, it was to recommend QoL instruments for clinical research. Methods An expert panel

The population sizes of five perennial vascular plant species confined to old unimproved dry grasslands were assessed, viz. Anthericum ramosum, Filipendula vulgaris, Silene nutans, Thymus pulegioides, and Thymus serpyllum. All populations within the region were included. Only for Filipendula vulgaris and Thymus serpyllum, significant relationships between habitat area and population size were foun

The aim of the study was to examine the effects of wearing an ice-vest (ca 1 kg) on physiological and subjective responses in fire fighters. The experiments were carried out on a treadmill in a hot-dry environment. The physical cooling effect of the ice-vest was measured with a thermal manikin. The ice-vest effectively reduced skin temperatures under the vest. On average, heart rate was 10 beats m

We have measured the oscillator strength of the Ni I line at 6300.34Å, which is known to be blended with the forbidden line [O I]lambda6300 used for the determination of the oxygen abundance in coolstars. We also give wavelengths of the two isotopic line components of⁵⁸Ni and ⁶⁰Ni derived from the asymmetriclaboratory line profile. These two line components of Ni I have to be

Popular Abstract in Swedish Maligna mjukdelstumörer, så kallade mjukdelssarkom, utgör hos vuxna en ovanlig tumörform som uppkommer i kroppens stödjevävnader. Till dessa räknas muskler, fett, bindväv, slemsäckar samt kärl och nerver som försörjer dessa vävnader. Trots att stödjevävnaderna omfattar mer än hälften av den totala kroppsvikten, utgör mjukdelssarkomen mindre än 1 % av alla maligna tumöreIn adult soft tissue sarcoma (STS) of the extremities and trunk wall, improved prognostic factors are needed to identify patients at high-risk for metastasis. Various factors are included in the many prognostic systems currently in use and the prognostic value of immunohistochemical (IHC) expression of biological markers is unclear.
