Background and importance: The major risk factor for vermilion lip squamous cell carcinoma (vlSCC) is excessive sunlight exposure. Population-based studies on treatment and outcome are lacking. Methods: This is a nation-wide, population-based study of treatment and outcome from prospectively recorded data for 2,111 vlSCC registered in the Swedish Head and Neck Cancer Register (SweHNCR) diagnosed 2
In this episode, the story of Clever Hans, the horse who changed psychology for the better. We also sit down with psychologist and magician Matt Tompkins. Matt is the author of The Spectacle of Illusion, a book about the long history of the manipulation of our own magical thinking and how studying deception, and especially self-deception, can help us better understand perception, memory, belief, a
External quality assessment (EQA) schemes for pathology are essential, yet large/international programmes do not assess morphology-based biomarkers or address local/regional needs. This study outlines bottom-up initiated, flexible Swedish Digital Pathology EQA rounds for breast pathology, and presents results from the 2021 and 2023 rounds. Six breast carcinoma cases were selected for each EQA roun
Background: The growing challenges of population aging create a pressing need for specialized geriatric medicine services to effectively address the complex health needs of older adults and influence supportive healthcare policies. Older patients may present clinical complexity with multimorbidity, disability, and/or frailty, necessitating a shift from the traditional organ-oriented clinical appro
OBJECTIVE: To develop a prediction model for major morbidity and endocrine dysfunction after CP which could help in tailoring the use of this procedure.SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Central pancreatectomy (CP) is a parenchyma-sparing alternative to distal pancreatectomy for symptomatic benign and pre-malignant tumors in body and neck of the pancreas CP lowers the risk of new-onset diabetes and exocrine
This paper presents a detector developed to protect the ESS spallation target. The detector is installed to receive a proton beam that has a peak current of 62.5 mA, an average power of 5 MW, and energy up to 2 GeV. It is designed to detect any part of the proton beam that goes outside a defined aperture, which is deemed as an errant beam condition. This detector is mainly used for machine protect
Most of classic psychedelic literature indicate its potential benefit to society and the environment during a time of rapid environmental degradation and climate change– hinting its potential role to sustainability and socio-ecological transformation. There is virtually no study drawing the explicit interlinkages of classic psychedelic research to sustainability science but it is observed that the
Background: Developing new diagnostic imaging methods that provide detailed visualization of the histoanatomy of tissues and organs requires precise histomorphometric evaluation. With a particular focus on bowel, this study aimed to develop and validate a computer program for reliable and efficient assessment of bowel wall histomorphometry. Methods: A MATLAB-based computer program was developed in
By utilising a narrative analysis, this qualitative study takes a historical perspective on the impact of political unrest and political violence on Thailand’s economic development from 1970 to 2020. The study identifies the key state actors in Thailand’s political sphere as well as their relation to each other. Furthermore, the study classifies five ‘eras’ in the reviewed period and identifies di

Formerly widely distributed throughout Europe, the great snipe (Gallinago media) – a medium-sized wader species – has experienced an important decline in the last century, mainly driven by habitat loss. Remaining population are now restricted to eastern Europe and Scandinavia and the species is considered endangered. The great snipe (Gallinago media) is a food specialist, feeding almost exclusivel
Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) does currently not have dedicated decision-making support for their in-country inventory allocation and is exploring how such decision support framework could be designed to enhance their supply chain operations. The purpose of this thesis is thus to develop a structured framework for country-level inventory allocation decision-making at MSF.To fulfil the purpose t
Geographical peripheries have long faced marginalization and degradation, enhanced by global trends such as urbanisation. Recently, their revitalization has gained urgency within sustainability discourse, seen as key to achieving global sustainable development. Yet, interventions often focus narrowly on economic recovery, overlooking the social dimension, particularly social cohesion, which is ess
AI-genererade verk har ökat snabbt under det senaste årtiondet och skakat om EU:s immaterialrättsliga landskap. Tack vare dessa intelligenta system kan individer idag skapa verk som överträffar mänskligt hantverk på bara några minuter. Verk som utnyttjar AI, särskilt autonoma produkter, utmanar de trad-itionella uppfattningar som upphovsrättslagstiftningen bygger på. Frågan om dessa verk kan erhål

Background: Studies on national policies for biologics are warranted. Objectives: To map and compare national healthcare set-ups for prescription, start, switch, tapering, and discontinuation of biologic/targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) in patients with psoriatic arthritis and axial spondyloarthritis across Europe, and assess the healthcare set-ups in relation to c
