To capture highly dynamic biological processes at cellular resolution is a recurring challenge in biology. Here we show that combining selective-volume illumination with simultaneous acquisition of orthogonal light fields yields three-dimensional images with high, isotropic spatial resolution and a significant reduction of reconstruction artefacts, thereby overcoming current limitations of light-f
Aim: Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is a rare disease characterized by the abundance of mucus in the abdomen without extra-peritoneal growth. Methods: Our patients with PMP have been treated with cytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy since 1996. The clinical and histopathological features of PMP and the relation of these features with disease-free interval and survival were ass
The first part of the investigation is related to the heat transfer and fluid flow problem inside ribbed ducts with a square cross section. The typical applications of this problem are in the cooling of gas turbine blades and guiding vanes. The second part is related to application of intercoolers in gas turbine systems. The intercooling is performed via intercoolers that usually are water-air hea
High-spin states in the odd-odd N=Z nucleus Rb-74(37)37 were studied using the Ca-40(Ca-40,alphanp) reaction. A previously observed odd-spin T=0 band has been extended to I-pi=(31(+)) and an even-spin T=0 band has been observed for the first time to I-pi=(22(+)); both have a pi(g(9/2))circle timesnu(g(9/2)) structure. A strongly coupled low-spin T=0,K=3 band has been interpreted as being based upo
The subject of this dissertation is the regulation of banks. The enquiry is built around three overreaching research questions:1. What is a bank?2. Why do banks have to be regulated?3. How should banks be regulated? Each of these three questions is dedicated a separate and comprehensive section, each consisting of several chapters. Even though the subject is jurisprudence, the perspective of the
Pseudomyxoma Peritonei (PMP) and Peritoneal Mesothelioma (PM) are both rare peritoneal malignancies. Currently, affected patients may be treated with Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy offering long-term survival or even cure in selected patients. However, many issues regarding the optimal treatment strategy are currently under debate. To aid physicians involved in
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS), including acute myocardial infarction (AMI), are a leading cause ofmorbidity and mortality worldwide. Accurate risk evaluation in patients presenting with chest pain isessential for optimizing emergency department (ED) resource allocation and patient outcomes. Currentclinical decision support tools rely on structured risk scores and biomarker measurements, such as hi
Abstract in French:Le système éducatif suédois met, depuis des décennies, l’accent sur l’importance de l’évaluation critique de l’information. Néanmoins, les approches d’évaluation de l’information mises en œuvre demeurent insuffisamment développées d’un point de vue analytique. Cet article porte sur deux défis essentiels auxquels sont confrontés les établissements scolaires pour préparer les jeunTeachers are now encouraged to use generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools to complete various school-related administrative tasks, with the promise of saving considerable amounts of time and effort. Drawing on interviews from 57 teachers across eight schools in Sweden and Australia, this paper explores teachers’ experiences when working with GenAI. In particular, it focuses on the large
Losses and damages from climate change are not just a future risk but already a present reality, and “Loss and Damage” (L&D) as a policy domain has been formalised under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), alongside mitigation and adaptation. While climate services currently provide strong support for adaptation and disaster recovery, here we propose that an exp
English is spoken in a multitude of accents all over the world. But these accents are not neutral. They are a source of stereotypes. For example, people who speak with a Birmingham accent are considered less intelligent and less suitable as a university lecturer than people speaking with a standard British accent.

Introduction: Doxorubicin (DOX), a potent anthracycline, is widely used in cancer therapy, but its effect is limited by doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC). Increasing evidence suggests that DIC is associated with ferroptosis, a cell death characterized by the iron-dependent accumulation of lipid peroxides. Although aerobic exercise is recommended for chemotherapy-related cardiac dysfunction,
We describe an experimental setup for non-linear interaction and propagation of ultrashort and intense x-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) pulses in a dense gas. It allows one to provide high, but adjustable, target-gas pressures of up to 6 bar within a vacuum environment of 3∙10− 3 mbar or better. The setup enables investigation of intense x-ray propagation in an optically thick medium with minimal
Ett förändrat klimat med mer intensiva regn och längre torrperioder har gjort sötvatten till en alltmer värdefull och sårbar resurs. Vattenbrist förekommer i dag i många delar av världen, även i områden där det tidigare inte varit ett problem, såsom i Sverige. Minskad vattenan-vändning kan bidra till att reducera efterfrågan, men endast upp till en viss gräns. För att säkerställa en långsiktig och
Urban climate resilience planning often overlooks the subsurface, despite its potential to mitigate flooding, heat stress, and drought. To demonstrate these potentials, we developed thematic Geosystem Service (GS) maps for Malmö, Sweden, to support the integration of the subsurface into climate adaptation strategies. This study identifies GS relevant to the local context, proposes indicators for m
Understanding the genetic regulation of blood CD34+ cell levels could lead to better methods for stem cell mobilization and transplantation. Recently, in a genome-wide association study (GWAS), we identified 11 genetic associations with blood CD34+ cell levels. One of the most significant maps to an intergenic region between the ENO1 and RERE genes at chromosome 1p36.23. However, the underlying me
This guidebook offers practice‑oriented guidance for initiating, developing, and sustaining collaborative housing projects across Europe. Building on the EU‑funded CO‑HOPE (Collaborative Housing in a Pandemic Era) research project and its Urban Living Lab, it synthesizes insights from the planning processes of studied collaborative housing initiatives. Grounded in participatory workshops with resi
This thesis investigates core excited electronic states of molecules in gas phase. In particular, the resonanttransitions of ionised molecules, the site-selectivity surrounding Auger-Meitner decay, and the nuclear dynamicsthat may follow core excitation and ionisation.Background: Fundamental understanding of molecules and ions lay the groundwork for all future applicativescience and production. Fo
Even if much is known regarding the effects of internet-delivered cognitive behaviour therapy (ICBT) for depression there are several topics that have not been studied. In this factorial design trial with 197 participants we investigated if clients in ICBT could select treatment modules themselves based on a selection of 15 tailored treatment modules developed for use in ICBT for depression. We co
Objectives: To evaluate the impact of the 2018 switch from PCV13 to PCV10 in Sweden’s childhood immunisation programme on the serotype distribution of Streptococcus pneumoniae.MethodsRespiratory tract (RT) S. pneumoniae isolates (n=1615; 2020–2023) were serotyped, tested for antimicrobial susceptibility and compared with invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) isolates (n=397) and PCV13-era data (2016
Factor V Leiden and factor II G20210A mutations are two frequent genetic risk factors involved in venous thromboembolism (VTE). The goal of this pooled analysis of 8 case-control studies, comprising a total of 2310 cases and 3204 controls, was to precisely estimate the risk of VTE in patients bearing both mutations (double heterozygotes). Odds ratios for VTE were 4.9 (95% CI; 4.1-5.9) for the fact
