Lanthanide-based single-molecule magnets are leading materials for achieving magnetization blocking at the level of one molecule. In this paper, we examine the physical requirements for efficient magnetization blocking in single-ion complexes and identify the design principles for achieving very high magnetization blocking barriers in lanthanide-based compounds. The key condition is the prepondera
In a critique of the sometimes confusing ways in which the term transnational has been repeatedly used, Mette Hjort, in 2010 attempted to outline what she called a “typology of transnationalisms” in connection with contemporary audio-visual production (2010: 12–33). Hjort’s palpable purpose here was to more precisely illuminate and contextualize the increasingly used concept of transnationalism. A
BACKGROUND: Patients with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) may be at lower risk for ventricular arrhythmias compared with those with ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM). In addition, DCM has been identified as a predictor of positive response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of an additional implantable cardioverter-defibr
BACKGROUND: In select patients with heart failure, cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is the most common complementary treatment besides medical treatment. We aimed to assess the association between post CRT-implant changes in cardiovascular medication and cardiovascular mortality and heart failure hospitalization.METHODS: 211 patients on optimal medical therapy eligible for CRT were retrospe
Aims Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) reduces morbidity and mortality for patients with heart failure and wide QRS complex, but up to 1/3 of patients are "non-responders" to the therapy. This study examines the ability of a simple standard electrocardiogram (ECG)-based scoring system to predict clinical outcome. Methods and results Four hundred and ninety-one consecutive patients with CRT
AIMS: Previous studies have identified sex disparities in the use of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD), although the basis of underutilization in women remains poorly understood. The aim of this study was to assess sex differences in patterns of CRT use with our without ICD.METHODS AND RESULTS: In this cross-sectional study using the National
BACKGROUND: In patients with sinus rhythm and normal atrioventricular conduction, pacing only the left ventricle with appropriate atrioventricular delays can result in superior left ventricular and right ventricular function compared with standard biventricular (BiV) pacing.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate a novel adaptive cardiac resynchronization therapy ((aCRT) algorithm for CRT pacing that provides auto
Ekonomens roll är otydlig eftersom det är stor spridning i ekonomers uppgifter, förväntningar och handlingsutrymme. Otydligheten medför att transaktionskostnaderna i organisationen blir stora. Ett sätt att tydliggöra rollerna är att utgå från hur ekonomer interagerar med organisationen. Fyra rolltyper framträder.
It is unknown whether native cells in benign breast tissue mediate risk of cancer.We therefore aimed to identify cell types in benign human mammary tissueimmunohistologically using markers of stemness and differentiation, and toinvestigate their possible associations with clinical risk factors for breast cancer.We found that cells that are integrated in benign epithelium and areimmunoreactive for
Background: Commercially available software for cardiovascular image analysis often has limited functionality and frequently lacks the careful validation that is required for clinical studies. We have already implemented a cardiovascular image analysis software package and released it as freeware for the research community. However, it was distributed as a stand-alone application and other researc
Background: Research on the relationships between adolescent and parental disordered eating (DE) and emotion dysregulation is scarce. Thus, the aim of this study was to explore whether mothers' and fathers' own DE, as measured by SCOFF questionnaire, and emotion dysregulation, as measured by the difficulties in emotion regulation scale (DERS), were associated with their daughters' or sons' DE and
During development, hematopoietic cells originate from endothelium in a process known as endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition (EHT). To study human EHT, we coupled flow cytometry and single-cell transcriptional analyses of human pluripotent stem cell-derived CD34(+) cells. The resulting transcriptional hierarchy showed a continuum of endothelial and hematopoietic signatures. At the interface of
This paper presents a project that recently received funding from the Swedish Research Council. Data collection will begin in autumn 2017, focusing on language practices in multilingual English classroom spaces in Swedish secondary schools. While English is the normal medium of instruction in lessons, research in bilingual educational settings shows that judicious switches between pupils’ mother t
This dissertation is about the view of writing. One of the intentions of the study is to analyse different notions of writing that become manifest in media debates about student writing. Another intention is to analyse conceptions of writing in curricula and course plans for upper secondary school in Sweden from 1970 to 2011. Drawing from theories of critical discourse analysis, the study aims atThis dissertation is about the view of writing.

In the context of Internet of Things (IoT), the research of this dissertation is concerned with the development of applications for end-user devices, i.e. devices through which the end-user directly interacts with systems. The complexity of such applications is partly due to network intricacies, and partly because GUI (Graphical User Interface) development is generally complicated and time consumi
Much of what we know concerning impression formation is based on experimental methods where the participant receives a list of traits or behaviors and is asked to make trait judgments or meta-cognitive judgments. The present study aimed to put some well-known effects from the impression formation literature to a test in a more dynamic computerized environment, more akin to many real world impressi
