Among the many approaches to improve the performance of lithium-metal batteries, ternary polyethylene oxide/ionic liquid/lithium salt electrolytes offer several advantages such as low flammability, high conductivity (vs. polyethylene oxide/lithium salt electrolytes) and, to a large extent, limiting the growth of dendrites at moderate currents. However, they suffer from relatively low mechani
Det svenska elsystemet genomgår stora förändringar. Elbehovet väntasöka markant då industrin elektrifieras och transportsektorn blir fossilfrisamtidigt som en allt högre andel av elen kommer från väderberoendekraftslag. Och mitt i denna elektrifierade energiomställning står elnätensom en bortglömd möjliggörare, eller i värsta fall bromskloss. Behovetav reinvesteringar i åldrade nät är stort samtid
The development and application of Electrochemical Quartz Crystal Microbalance (EQCM) sensing to study metal electroplating, especially for energy storage purposes, are reviewed. The roles of EQCM in describing electrode/electrolyte interface dynamics, such as the electric double-layer build-up, ionic/molecular adsorption, metal nucleation, and growth, are addressed. Modeling of the QCM sensor is
This paper provides a comprehensive overview of how emblems wereused on Swedish royal medals and commemorative coins duringthe seventeenth century, a period marked by the rise of the SwedishEmpire. Focusing on numismatic objects that thematize royalsuccession and coronations, it focuses on how emblems were utilizedacross multiple monarchs, touching on the origin of the emblems andhow the use of em
Adolescent girls are particularly susceptible to iron deficiency due to increased iron requirements during the pubertal growth spurt, combined with iron loss following menarche. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of heavy menstrual bleeding in an adolescent population using the SAMANTA questionnaire and to explore its relationship with dietary habits and iron deficiency. This cross-sec
Characteristic Mode analysis is a widely used technique in antenna design, providing insight into the fundamental electromagnetic behavior of radiating structures. In this paper, we establish fundamental bounds on the slope of characteristic mode eigenvalues and angles, demonstrating that their rate of change is subject to fundamental constraints for all possible realizations within a given design
In Nordic countries, demand response (DR) programs are critical for enhancing energy flexibility and reducing peak electricity consumption in buildings and industry. Accurate short-term demand forecasting is essential to support these programs, especially in the context of cities with varying levels of data availability. This paper compares three different forecasting approaches for hourly electri
During the last two decades, an active line of research in proof complexity has been into the space complexity of proofs and how space is related to other measures. By now these aspects of the resolution proof system are fairly well understood, but many open problems remain for the related but stronger proof system polynomial calculus (PC/PCR). For instance, the space complexity of many standard “
The chapter summarizes the different methods available for damage repair after water and/or fire events. Different drying methods as well as their advantages and disadvantages are discussed. This is done separately for timber framing and mass timber constructions. The section for repair after fire events points out the different steps that should be taken after a fire event. This includes methods
Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects 6–10% of adults and often remains undiagnosed until advanced stages, leading to inadequate management. This study compared diagnosed, proxy-diagnosed, and undiagnosed CKD patients regarding prevalence, clinical assessment, nephroprotective treatment, healthcare utilization, and mortality. Methods: This retrospective observational study analyzed Regi
Bygg- och fastighetsbranschen är en av EU:s största konsumenter av naturresurser och producenter av avfall vilket gör en skyndsam omställning till ett mer cirkulärt byggande högst nödvändig. För att lyckas krävs en grundläggande förändring av produkt- och materialflöden i branschen, med fokus på att förebygga avfall, minska uttaget av naturresurser och förlänga produkters livslängd.Återbruk av bygThe construction industry remains one of the largest contributors to resource consumption and waste generation in the EU, making the transition to circular construction both urgent and essential. However, the transition towards a circular construction and real estate industry requires a fundamental shift in material flows, prioritising waste prevention, reducing extraction of natural resources, an
Self-harm, including nonsuicidal self-injury and suicide attempts, is common among youth, associated with elevated psychopathology, suicide risk, and increased demand for clinical services. Despite advances in understanding and treatment, few interventions have demonstrated efficacy in randomized controlled trials (RCTs), which are considered the gold standard for evaluating treatment effects by r
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the ability of a thigh-worn accelerometer to detect walking during daily life in individuals with Lumbar Spinal Stenosis (LSS). Two hypotheses were made regarding how walking measurements from the accelerometer, a walking test, and an ankle-worn StepWatch would relate in order for the accelerometer to be valid. The hypotheses were: (a) there is no difference b
Venetoclax-obinutuzumab (Ven-Obi) is a standard first-line therapy for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The impact of age, fitness, and dose reductions remains unclear. We analyzed patients treated with Ven-Obi in the CLL13 and CLL14 trials, excluding patients with TP53 aberrations. Fitness was assessed using the cumulative illness rating scale (CIRS, >6) and creatinine clearance (≤70 mL
Background: The Influenza – Monitoring Vaccine Effectiveness in Europe (I-MOVE/I-MOVE+) and Vaccine Effectiveness, Burden and Impact Studies (VEBIS) hospital networks have conducted seasonal multicentre, test-negative, case–control studies in Europe to measure influenza vaccine effectiveness (IVE) since 2015/16. We measured the effect of chronic conditions on VE of influenza A subtypes among older
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by a progressive loss of motor neurons. Neuroinflammation is apparent in affected tissues, including increased T cell infiltration and activation of microglia, particularly in the spinal cord1,2. Autoimmune responses are thought to have a key role in ALS pathology, and it is hypothesized that T cells contribute to the
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are major producers of type I/III interferons. As interferons are crucial for antiviral defense, pDCs are assumed to play an essential role in this process; however, robust evidence supporting this dogma is scarce. Genetic or pharmacological manipulations that eliminate pDCs or disrupt their interferon production often affect other cells, confounding interpretat
Solid-state electrolytes, such as lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide (LLZO), show promise as technologies for next-generation high-energy-density batteries, but commercial development has been hindered by a lack of scalable processing methods. Current fabrication methods are costly or require long annealing steps to create dense films. We report an atmospheric pressure blown-arc nitrogen plasma jet
Solar-driven hydrogen production stores renewable energy chemically but suffers from efficiency limitations due to the slow hole transport-dominated recombination, which caused by high valence band degeneracy and hole effective mass. Targeted hole trap regulation is essential to minimize these losses and enhance photocatalytic H2 evolution performance for practical applications. This study address
