l-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID) is a prevalent complication of dopamine replacement therapy in Parkinson’s disease. In addition to its clinical importance, LID represents a paradigm to unravel how altered signaling downstream of dopamine receptors can disrupt mechanisms of synaptic plasticity and motor information processing in the cortico-basal ganglia network. This chapter focuses on experimenta
We present memory-based language modeling as an efficient, eco-friendly alternative to deep neural network-based language modeling. It offers log-linearly scalable next-token prediction performance and strong memorization capabilities. Implementing fast approximations of k-nearest neighbor classification, memory-based language modeling leaves a relatively small ecological footprint both in trainin
A meditation on gratitude, strangeness, and listening with careA deceptive cadence suggests resolution but withholds it, opening instead to uncertainty, fragility, and the unexpected. This philosophical-existential inquiry takes that musical figure as a metaphor for life itself—disrupted by illness, sustained by another’s gift, and reshaped by the presence of death. Music here becomes a vital comp
The aim of this study was to perform histopathological reassessment of primary resections of locally advanced colon cancer (CC) within a randomized controlled trial, with specific focus on surgical margins and synchronous locoregional peritoneal metastases (SL-PM), and to provide learning points for both surgeons and pathologists. All histopathological slides of patients with c/pT4N0-2M0 or perfor
BackgroundSome patients scheduled for cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) only undergo explorative laparotomy (open/close procedure) due to extensive tumor spread or challenges in achieving complete cytoreduction (CC0). This study aimed to evaluate the surgical outcomes and overall survival in patients with peritoneal surface malignancy (PSM) who only
dolescents with an immigrant background have poorer educational performance than their native counterparts, which may partly be explained by the quality of their neighbourhood area upon immigration to Sweden. An important part of neighbourhood quality is neighbourhood socioeconomic status (NSES). This study examines the impact of initial NSES on subsequent school grades in refugees by using a natuAdolescents with an immigrant background have poorer educationalperformance than their native counterparts, which may partly be explainedby the quality of their neighbourhood area upon immigration to Sweden.

This study investigates the effects of high-frequency temporal light modulation (TLM) on neural activity using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in healthy individuals (age 18–50 years). We examined stimulation frequencies both below (50 Hz) and above (≥100 Hz) the perceptible threshold for visual flicker. Our findings revealed that 50 Hz TLM, which is perceived as flickering, leads to
Wall-bounded turbulent flows are central to a wide range of engineering applications, where surface roughness can significantly influence both frictional drag and convective heat transfer. While the momentum effects of roughness have been significantly advanced in the literature, the thermal counter parts remain insufficiently understood. This study addresses the critical gap in understanding roug
Background: MicroRNA-379 (miR-379) has been reported to play a tumour-suppressing role in several cancer types. Our previous work demonstrated that miR-379 overexpression attenuates the metastatic spread of prostate cancer (PCa) both in vitro and in vivo. However, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Methods: To elucidate the mechanisms by which miR-379 affects metastases, we perf
Cancer is a disease of the genome caused by oncogene activation and tumor suppressor gene inhibition. Deep sequencing studies including large consortia such as TCGA and ICGC identified numerous tumor-specific mutations not only in protein-coding sequences but also in non-coding sequences. Although 98% of the genome is not translated into proteins, most studies have neglected the information hidden
Coleoid cephalopods (octopus, squid and cuttlefish) have unusually complex nervous systems. The coleoid nervous system is also the only one currently known to recode the majority of expressed proteins through A-to-I RNA editing. The deamination of adenosine by adenosine deaminase acting on RNA (ADAR) enzymes produces inosine, which is interpreted as guanosine during translation. If this occurs in
The coleoid cephalopods display unusually extensive mRNA recoding by adenosine deamination, yet the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. Because the adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADAR) enzymes catalyze this form of RNA editing, the structure and function of the cephalopod orthologs may provide clues. Recent genome sequencing projects have provided blueprints for the full compleme
Urban railway systems play an important role in creating sustainable cities, especially in megacities where they serve as the backbone of mass transit. Providing connection information for urban rail systems is essential to ensure continued use of public transport by passengers. However, metro systems can be operated by different service providers, creating challenges in connecting information whi
The purpose of this paper is to explore context adaptation of change processes in the setting of public administration. This is done by adopting a contingency approach. Thus, the research question guiding this study is: How is context adaptation enacted in change processes and what are the behavioural implications? Drawing on empirical findings from the Swedish Transport Administration, the study
Supply chain risk management (SCRM) is a common practice for most supply chains. It involves the processes of identifying, assessing, mitigating, and monitoring the risks of providing products and services within the supply chain. Many supply chains have prepared to deal with the uncertainties which may interrupt their supply chain operations. This research is interested to find the current SCRM p
In this work, we investigate the cryogenic performance of hafnia-based ferroelectric capacitors with and without an aluminum oxide (ALO) interlayer, comparing conventional metal-ferroelectric-metal (MFM) structures to metal-ferroelectric-insulator-metal (MFIM) counterparts. Devices employing Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 as the ferroelectric layer were characterized from 300 K down to 10 K, targeting temperature r
This article assesses the determinants of intragenerational social mobility across occupational trajectories in Southern Europe, focusing on Catalonia (1880s–1950s). Using a novel longitudinal database of individuals born 1870–1909 in the Baix Llobregat area, we examine sibling correlations in occupational status as a proxy for family socioeconomic resemblance and trace career progression across e
In the mid- to late 1970s, the Swedish economy faced a profit squeeze which threatened to hamper investments and the creation of jobs. This engendered a massive debate in the media and among economists and policymakers. This article investigates what I call ‘the politics of profits, the debates around the role of corporate profits in a democratic capitalist society and economy and the policy measu
The radioactive noble gas radon (222Rn) is a suitable tracer for atmospheric transport and mixing processes that can be used to evaluate and calibrate atmospheric transport models or to estimate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions using the so-called radon tracer method (RTM). However, these applications require reliable estimates of the 222Rn fluxes from the soil. This study evaluates two process-base
