Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) have garnered significant interest as promising candidates for nanoscale optoelectronic applications due to their excellent optical properties. Axially heterostructured CsPbBr3-CsPb(Br(1-x)Clx)3 nanowires can be produced by localized anion exchange of pregrown CsPbBr3 nanowires. However, characterizing such heterostructures with sufficient strain and real space reso

Objective: Analyze the outcomes of endovascular complex abdominal and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair using the Cook fenestrated device with the modified preloaded delivery system (MPDS) with a biport handle and preloaded catheters. Methods: A multicenter retrospective single arm cohort study was performed, including all consecutive patients with complex abdominal aortic aneurysm repair an

ObjectiveTo evaluate the ACR/EULAR 2022 criteria for ANCA-associated vasculitides (AAV) classification and compare them with the European Medicines Agency (EMA) algorithm and with classification based only on ANCA serology.MethodsIn the analysis, 374 cases (47% female) were classified according to the EMA algorithm, ANCA serology and ACR/EULAR criteria. The agreement rate was calculated using the

Knowledge about risks for overuse of psychoactive analgesics in patients having primary surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) or ulnar nerve entrapment (UNE), or both, is limited. We investigated if patients with those nerve entrapment disorders have a higher risk of overuse of psychoactive analgesics (i.e., opioids and gabapentinoid drugs) before, after, and both before and after surgery than

Ulva rigida is a widely available marine algae representing a valuable biomass from which natural photosensitizers (chlorophylls) can be obtained in an environmentally friendly manner using a green microwave-assisted extraction technique. If properly loaded in biocompatible nanoformulations, such highly hydrophobic chlorophylls with photosensitizing activity may constitute effective drugs useful i

The presence of microplastics (MPs) in water represents a current problem for marine life and a future serious issue for human health. This is pushing towards new approaches for the removal of MPs and, hence, their characterization and evaluation, which up to now has represented a limit for tentative procedures for their degradation. Herein, we reported on a new facile, in situ and non-destructive

This study presents a conceptual framework for assessing the sustainability of the forest-based economy and resulting synergies and trade-offs between forest harvest, carbon sequestration, and biodiversity conservation. The framework adopts a comprehensive systems approach to map economic activities and associated flows of resources and embodied environmental impacts along the value chain. It buil

Objective: To identify and quantify risk factors for incident knee osteoarthritis (KOA) across the lifespan. Methods: This systematic review and meta-analysis identified eligible studies from seven electronic databases and three registries. Longitudinal cohort studies or randomised controlled trials evaluating participants who developed incident symptomatic and/or radiographic KOA were included. T

Direct reprogramming of somatic cells into neurons offers a promising strategy for studying neurological disorders and developing cell-based therapies. This protocol describes the 3D direct reprogramming of human glial progenitor cells into dopaminergic neurons. It includes spheroid formation, lentiviral transduction, neuronal induction using doxycycline, and validation via gene expression and imm

Label-free chemical imaging of living and functioning systems is the holy grail of biochemical research. However, existing techniques often require extensive sample preparation to remove interfering molecules such as water, rendering many molecular imaging techniques unsuitable for in situ structural studies. Here, we examined freshly extracted tissue biopsies and living small vertebrates at submi

BackgroundAntibiotics are handled in large amounts at hospitals at many different wards due to the wide range of bacterial infections that are treated. Unnecessary use and occupational exposure to antibiotics should be avoided due to the risk of bacterial resistance development and adverse health effects including skin and respiratory hypersensitivity reactions in persons handling these drugs.Obje

In a world where the challenges of climate change, social inequality, economic instability, and geopolitical tensions are ever-present, educators have a unique opportunity—and responsibility—to prepare their students to navigate these complexities. However, educators are also juggling teaching and research, competing deadlines, shifting expectations, institutional paradigms, and limited time and s

Accurate labels are critical for deriving robust machine learning models. Labels are used to train supervised learning models and to evaluate most machine learning paradigms. In this paper, we model the accuracy and cost of a common weak labeling process where annotators assign presence or absence labels to fixed-length data segments for a given event class. The annotator labels a segment as "pres

Objectives To study the prevalence of and interplay between common neuropsychiatric sequelae 3-4 years after onset of first-ever stroke - specifically post-stroke fatigue (PSF), post-stroke depression (PSD) and post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI). Design Population-based cohort study. Setting Catchment area of a Swedish University Hospital. Participants We recruited individuals with first-ever

Work and working conditions are fundamental social determinants of health. Climate change poses an urgent and growing threat to workers' health, through both direct exposure to environmental hazards and indirect exacerbation of social and health inequalities. Occupational health, which focusses on the promotion of mental and physical health and well-being of workers, is a key but often overlooked

Introduction: Familial risk of lung cancer (LC) is at the level of many common cancers (ca 2.0) but as cigarette smoking is the main cause of LC, it has remained undefined to what extent smoking contributes to the familial risk. We take advantage of the natural experiment of divorce. In Sweden, it has been customary that children stay with their mother after divorce. We thus hypothesize that only
