We propose and analyze a microwave spin-photon interface based on a circular double quantum dot, inspired by recent experimental observations of anisotropic g-factors and orbital ring states in InAs nanowires. We develop an effective theoretical model, capturing the interplay of spin-orbit coupling and the magnetic flux, and show how ring states form at crossings of odd and even geometric parity o
A detailed understanding of excited-state evolution is critical to realizing the full potential of abundant-metal coordination complex photosensitizers. Here, we show how wide-band optical transient absorption spectroscopy (oTA) can delineate the complete energy relaxation pathway of the photoexcited state of Fe(ii) polypyridyl complexes supported by benzannulated diarylamido ligands. By covering
INTRODUCTION: Early detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is critical for timely intervention as disease-modifying treatments emerge. Speech-based digital biomarkers offer scalable options for remotely capturing speech-derived functional changes associated with early cognitive decline, but validation across real-world populations remains limited.METHODS: We evaluated the speech biomarker for cogni
Purpose: Violence against women is a major public health concern. Comparative research on outcomes across different service providers remains limited. Method: Women seeking support from social welfare units or women’s shelters were recruited from six organizations in Sweden. A pre–post design was applied, with structured interviews and questionnaires at baseline and 1-year follow-up. Fifty-one womViolence against women is a major public health concern.

Background: Sport-related concussion (SRC) is a common and complex injury in athletic populations. Linear head acceleration (LHA) and rotational head acceleration (RHA) are key biomechanical factors believed to contribute to SRC, each through distinct mechanisms. Evaluating head impact magnitudes across different sports, athlete populations, and measurement methods is essential for advancing SRC
How do actors overlook uncomfortable information? We add to the understanding of how potential problems can be ignored over long periods, in spite of recurrent warnings. Ignoring then becomes a dynamic process of responding to evolving ignoring ‘threats’ or triggers by combining knowledge-seeking and knowledge avoidance in ways that must be continuously legitimated, both in one’s own eyes and in t
Serglycin (SRGN) has been found overexpressed and secreted in glioblastoma (GBM), associated with tumorigenic signaling and poor prognosis. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the involvement of SRGN in the unfolded protein response (UPR), an oncogenic signaling pathway implicated in protein recycling and cell fate. Herein, we developed stably transduced LN-18shSCR GBM cells, expressing high leve
As populations age, many countries are raising retirement ages and encouraging longer working lives. In Sweden, where old-age employment rates are already high, questions remain about how these patterns vary across regions and labour market segments. This article provides a comprehensive overview of old-age employment trends from 1990 to 2021, using detailed population register data. While employm
Direct reprogramming offers a powerful approach to generate therapeutic cell types, but progress is limited by an incomplete understanding of transcription factor (TF) cooperativity. Here, we present a protocol for performing combinatorial TF screening to resolve reprogramming factor networks that drive cell identity. We describe steps for arrayed lentiviral production, transduction, and reprogram
In October 2023, storm Babet led to the most severe erosion in decades along the Swedish South coast. In this study we approach the affected coastal landscape as a coupled social-ecological system where environmental components (e.g. geology, bathymetry, waves) interact with social components (e.g. infrastructure, management, economic activities) to influence the outcome of an extreme event. We us
Neurofilament light chain (NfL) is a promising biomarker of axonal injury across acute and chronic neurodegeneration, which can improve drug discovery and disease monitoring models. Traditional in vivo animal models cannot fully mimic human pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs), but in vitro models based on human cells solve this problem, reducing the time and cost of drug testing.
Time-resolved imaging of plasmonic near fields is well-established at visible wavelengths but remains largely unexplored in the short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) range. Here, we use time-resolved photoemission electron microscopy (TR-PEEM) to directly visualize ultrafast plasmon dynamics in silver nanowires driven by a few-cycle SWIR pulses. We observe strong electric-field enhancement localized at
Granulomas are organized immune aggregates of myeloid and lymphoid cells that arise when the host fails to eliminate persistent stimuli; however, their function remains paradoxical, by promoting both protection from systemic dissemination while also promoting a niche for microbial survival. Traditionally defined by histopathology and morphology, granulomas are now being revisited with high-through
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is marked by progressive cognitive decline, highlighting the importance of cognitive assessment in both clinical practice and research. This study investigates the temporal dynamics of cognitive decline and the differential sensitivity of cognitive measures across the AD spectrum. Cognitive measures, functional assessments, and amyloid-beta (Aβ) and tau positron emission t
Background: Metastasis-directed stereotactic body radiotherapy (MD-SBRT) has shown promise in retrospective and phase II studies for oligometastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. However, prospective randomized phase III data—particularly in newly diagnosed cases and in combination with androgen deprivation therapy and next-generation androgen receptor pathway inhibitors—are limited. The METR
