Innate-like T cells (ILTCs) link innate immune responses with adaptive immune functions. This group includes invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells, mucosa-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells, and γδ T cells. ILTCs detect transformed or stressed cells via non-classical antigen presentation pathways. For example, iNKT cells recognize CD1d-presented glycolipids, MAIT cells respond to MR1-presented
Maternal alloantibody-induced hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) remains a significant concern worldwide. Alloimmune HDFN can be pathogenetically named by the specific alloantibodies involved. Moreover, four mechanistic pathway types are generally recognized in clinical practice: classical or extravascular hemolysis; immune-pressure-escaped, also known as antibody-mediated antigen-m
Vision impairment increases risks such as social isolation, mobility challenges, and falls. Wearable Augmented Reality (AR) devices with Artificial Intelligence (AI) can enhance sensory perception by enabling real-time recognition of obstacles, assisting visually impaired individuals during street navigation, aiming to reduce the risk of falls. In this paper, we propose a Federated Learning (FL) f
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is a major driver of evolution and a key source of innovation in the microbial world. Mobile genetic elements (MGEs), such as plasmids and phages, often act as agents of HGT or as vehicles for cargo genes, some of which define the adaptive potential of the host organism in specific environments. These genes are involved in immunity, anti-immunity, virulence, and anti
We consider the numerical approximation of the stochastic complex Ginzburg-Landau equation with additive noise on the one-dimensional torus. The complex nature of the equation means that many of the standard approaches developed for stochastic partial differential equations cannot be directly applied. We use an energy approach to prove an existence and uniqueness result as well as to obtain moment
We explore mental health as a potential mechanism to explain the labor market penalty of an early-onset physical disability using administrative data from Sweden. For methodological reasons, we focus on persons with Cerebral Palsy (CP) and use prescriptions for mental health conditions. We examine how much of the differences in labor market outcomes is explained by prescriptions for mental health
Thermal energy storage is likely to be integral to a sustainable, secure and affordable energy system facing ever greater challenges in matching supply and demand. Techno-economic studies have explored the potential for thermal storage deployment, but transitions in the energy system are also influenced by the activities and decisions of an array of actors. We gathered new empirical evidence from
The introduction of a semiconductor–semiconductor junction is an effective strategy to enhance the photocatalytic performance of perovskite nanocrystal-based systems. Herein, we optimized the synthesis of CsPbX3/Pb4S3Y2 (X, Y = Cl, Br, I) perovskite/chalcohalide heterostructures, whose band alignment can be tuned by the halide composition. As a proof-of-concept, we evaluated the photooxidative cou
We present a canonical series expansion for generalized harmonic functions in the open unit disc in the complex plane that generalizes that recently obtained for the class of (Formula presented.) -harmonic functions.
In Sweden, what we eat accounts for about a third of the consumption-based greenhouse gas emissions, and there is strong evidence that the most effective way to reduce emissions is to switch to a more plant-based diet. A shift is currently underway in the Swedish food system; the market for plant-based products is showing an exponential growth, coupled with, for the first time since the 1950s, a d
We explore whether SAM2, a vision foundation model, can be used for accurate localization of eye image features that are used in lab-based eye tracking: corneal reflections (CRs), the pupil, and the iris. We prompted SAM2 via a typical hand annotation process that consisted of clicking on the pupil, CR, iris and sclera for only one image per participant. SAM2 was found to support better spatial pr
This book provides a highly accessible and user-friendly overview of the essential concepts and terms related to the current global endeavour to implement the Sustainable Development Goals.With the first decade of the 15-year timespan of the 2030 Agenda now past, the SDGs show limited progress and several goals are even regressing. It is imperative that SDG implementation is accelerated until 2030
Synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymer microspheres using precipitation polymerization was first reported in 1999 in Lund. The synthetic approach attracted great interest for molecular imprinters worldwide due to its simplicity. Following the initial demonstration of feasibility for material synthesis, imprinted polymer microspheres were found to exhibit good colloidal stability qualifying for
How does new technology impact labor market outcomes? We address this question by examining the adoption of electricity in Sweden during the early 20th century. Leveraging detailed individual-level data that covers the entire labor market and exogenous variation in electricity access driven by proximity to hydro-power plants, we estimate the impact of electrification on individual labor market out
This article introduces the pattern theory of immersivity (PTI), a practice-led theoretical framework stemming from the hypothesis that a reorientation of the understanding of immersive art is needed, away from technological sophistication or sensory excess and toward the psychological mechanisms underlying imaginative engagement, regardless of artform or combination of media. The theory posits th
A new development within the high spin Nilsson-Strutinsky formalism presented and applied to certain sd-shell nuclei. The previous method of calculating potential-energy surfaces as a function of angular momentum using interpolated spin values is not satisfactory when studying the individual bands for these light nuclei. In the present research, manyparticle many-hole excitations are considered in
Marketing is an important function and practice in everyday business. It involves getting potential customers interested in a product or service through value-oriented arguments. In this way, marketing plays a pivotal role in driving the consumption of goods and services. Given the increasing consumption of goods and services, decreasing product lifetimes, and increasing levels of waste in all pro
