Virtual Imaging Trials (VITs) provide a reproducible, cost-effective, and ethical approach for testing medical imaging technologies. In breast imaging, realistic phantoms across density levels are crucial, as density affects cancer risk assessment and imaging performance. We have previously demonstrated the use of Perlin noise to simulate breast parenchyma. This study establishes a systematic mapp
Bismuth-based compounds, such as Bi1-xSbx or Bi2Te3, have outstanding electronic properties especially for advanced quantum devices. However, the potential of low-dimensional group V-Bi materials is largely undetermined. Here, we report the experimental realization of a two-dimensional (2D) BiAs layer with giant Rashba spin splitting, grown on an InAs(111)B substrate via molecular beam epitaxy. AR
Den här uppsatsen undersöker hur värdeladdade ord som relaterar till sexuell läggning, etnicitet och social klass har översatts från engelska till svenska respektive danske genom tiderna och om det finns skillnader mellan språken. Texterna som ligger till grund för undersökningen är Jack Kerouacs On the Road (1957) och On the Road – The Original Scroll (2007) samt deras svenska och danska översätt
I denna magisteruppsats undersöks hur de intertextuella elementen i romanen Shadow of night av Deborah Harkness kan översättas till svenska på ett sätt som bevarar den funktion som intertextualiteten har i originaltexten. Inom ramen för magisterarbetet har romanens första kapitel översatts, och i uppsatsen analyseras denna översättning kvalitativt med hjälp av tre utvalda textpassager som belyser
This study examines how gender is performed and how the norm of the “ideal nurse” is constructed within psychiatric care in Sweden. Operating at the intersection of historical care ideals and New Public Management (NPM), the nursing profession faces structural tensions between professional autonomy and organizational subjection. Drawing on feminist organizational sociology, Joan Acker’s theory of
Urban water systems in southern Sweden face increasing pressure from both short- duration intense rainfall, which can cause pluvial flooding and pollutant discharges, and more frequent dry periods, which motivate water reuse (IPCC 2023; Schimanke et al. 2022; Canedo Rosso et al. 2025). Rainwater harvesting (RWH) tanks can contribute to both goals (Campisano et al. 2017), but their detention benefi
This Development Dissertation Brief summarises a study of Sweden’s long-term media aid engagement in Vietnam from 1993 to 2007, examining howjournalistic skills, norms and practices were introduced, translated and reshapedwithin an authoritarian media system. Drawing on project documentation andinterviews with Swedish journalism trainers and radio technicians, the disserta-tion analyses how techno
Public Law in a Hybrid State presents a broad sociological analysis of legal developments in contemporary Uzbekistan, using this example to assess why states with some authoritarian features may promote legal reforms and why the modernization of legal institutions may generate benefits for governments. It examines how, alongside constitutional changes, reforms in administrative law play an importa
Introduction: Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) may cause stress-induced transient acute cardiac dysfunction through myocardial stunning, in the form of exacerbation-triggered Takotsubo syndrome (referred to as Takotsubo stunning). Although prior studies suggest an association between AECOPD and transient cardiac dysfunction, existing evidence is limited to retro
The rapid adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) with increasingly advanced battery technologies is reshaping electricity demand patterns. Yet existing studies often assume static behaviors, overlooking that real-world charging patterns are transient and evolve in response to technological change. This study applies a scenario-aware generative modeling framework to project weekly EV charging demand i
With growing interest in cobalt-based complexes for electrocatalytic applications, we synthesized four homoleptic facial-octahedral Co(iii) β-oxodithioester complexes (1–4) with the general composition [Co(L)3], where L represents 3-(methylthio)-1-(furan-2-yl)-3-thioxoprop-1-en-1-olate (L1), 3-(methylthio)-1-(thiophen-2-yl)-3-thioxoprop-1-en-1-olate (L2), 3-(methylthio)-1-(pyridin-3-yl)-3-thioxopr
Cross-linguistic research shows that languages differ in how they encode the basic semantic components of motion events (figure, motion, manner, path, and ground) in their grammars and lexicons. While manner and path encoding have received significant attention, one core component has been underestimated: ground, the object or surface relative to which motion occurs. In fact, the possibility of gr
We present MixtureVitae, an open-access pretraining corpus1 built to minimize legal risk while providing strong downstream performance. MixtureVitae follows a permissive-first, risk-mitigated sourcing strategy that combines public-domain and permissively licensed text (e.g., CC-BY/Apache) with carefully justified low-risk additions (e.g., government works and EU TDM-eligible sources). MixtureVitae
Objective: To describe the epidemiology of injuries and illnesses at the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games. Methods: Injuries and illnesses were recorded daily via a web-based injury and illness surveillance system and local organising committee medical facilities. Adjusted incidences (injuries/illnesses per 1000 athlete days; 95% CIs), injury prevalence (IP; %) and injury burden (days lost per 1000 ath
Myostatin negatively regulates skeletal muscle size in multiple species, and therefore, myostatin blockade has been therapeutically explored to promote muscle growth in humans, including to counter the muscle loss seen in obese humans using GLP1R agonists. In this study, we present results from a large multi-cohort genetic association analysis, using data from 1.1 million individuals to examine th
Previous experimental studies of pyrrole pyrolysis reported numerous hydrocarbon and nitrogen-containing products from HCN up to pyridine and dinitriles. To develop a consistent detailed kinetic mechanism for pyrrole, the rate constants of H atom abstraction from C4H5N by NH2, and CH2CN radicals have been calculated at the DLPNO-CCSD(T)-F12/cc-pVDZ-F12//M06–2X/def2-TZVP level of theory while H ato
Background and purpose: Claudin-5 plays a crucial role in maintaining blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity through endothelial tight junction formation. Alternative splicing of claudin-5 within the microvascular endothelium may modulate BBB structural and functional dynamics, thereby affecting neuronal damage and recovery after ischemic stroke. The aim of this study was to investigate temporal and
This bachelor thesis examines how Sámi women and queer Sámi people's vulnerabilization is constructed through an indigenous feminist and western politics discourse in the report called Violence against Sámi women (Våld mot samiska kvinnor). By using critical discourse analysis and Fairclough’s three-dimensional model, the thesis shows that the report constructs Sámi women's vulnerabilizati
This thesis investigates the development of an object-oriented modular framework for PLC systems, intended for use at Etteplan, an international engineering consultancy. The thesis was motivated by recurring challenges in PLC projects, including unclear program flows, low code reusability, and limited scalability. These issues justify the need for a standardized framework grounded in the IEC 61131
