Introduction. Online pharmacies are playing an increasingly important role for both citizens and society. In the digital landscape, both legal and illegal online pharmacies are competing for visibility and customer appeal. This article analyses the layout and characteristics of online pharmacy websites. Method. The article is based on a qualitative study of legal and illegal online pharmacy websit
Registry-based randomised controlled trials (R-RCTs) represent a paradigm shift in research, with the potential to accomplish pragmatic but large trials with high external validity. In this paper, we review our experiences from planning and performing the REgistry-based randomised controlled trial of treatment Duration and mortality in long-term OXygen therapy (REDOX) trial, the first R-RCT within
As robots increasingly integrate into our social environments, from factories to social spaces, there is a growing need to find ways to effectively collaborate in these dynamic environments. However, current robotics research is mostly aimed towards task and environment specific programming. Even the state-of-the-art collaborative robotics technologies lack or have a very rudimentary understanding
Accurate imputation is essential for the reliability and success of downstream tasks. Recently, diffusion models have attracted great attention in this field. However, these models neglect the latent distribution in a lower-dimensional space derived from the observed data, which limits the generative capacity of the diffusion model. Additionally, dealing with the original missing data without labe
This article is a collective response to the 2020 iteration of The Manifesto for Teaching Online. Originally published in 2011 as 20 simple but provocative statements, the aim was, and continues to be, to critically challenge the normalization of education as techno-corporate enterprise and the failure to properly account for digital methods in teaching in Higher Education. The 2020 Manifesto cont
Mass school closures and restricted mobility during the Covid-19 pandemic have intensified matters of technology, teaching, and participation in schools. In response to this situation, this paper examines how attendance practices work during school closure and screen-saturated pandemic isolation at a Swedish upper secondary school.

Aim: To assess the prognostic value of auditory event-related potentials (AERPs) registered at term equivalent age in very preterm infants. Methods: Infants (26.5 ± 2.0 gestational weeks (GWs), n = 41 of 64 recruited) were enrolled prenatally between January 2005 and May 2007 at Skåne University Hospital, Lund, Sweden. AERP and mismatch responses to changes in duration or frequency in pure tones w
In this chapter, we introduce the configuration of caring cuts. Composed of care and cuts, two key notions in feminist posthumanism and Actor-Network Theory (ANT), caring cuts addresses the entanglement of epistemology and ontology. By putting to work an ontology of relational materialisms, the chapter explores how to respond to the mess, emergence, and elusive objects that become centred by our c
Insects are known for communicating via sounds created by rubbing body parts, a behaviour referred to as stridulation. Red Wood ants (Formica rufa group) are not known to possess stridulatory organs and have historically been categorised as a non-stridulating species. In this exploratory study, we report that Red Wood ants generate stridulation-like sounds, being about 0.7 ± 0.2 seconds-long (mean
Introduction: The rat Vra1 locus, containing glutathione S-transferase alpha 4 (Gsta4), regulates the degeneration of central nervous system (CNS) neurons in toxin-, protein-, and injury-based models. We hypothesize that Piebald Virol Glaxo.1AV1 (PVG) alleles in Vra1 confer protection and increased axonal outgrowth after peripheral nerve injury and repair. Methods: DA rats (n = 14) and DA rats wit
This article explores lesson enactments as co-constitutive of human-technology relationality in everyday schooling, rather than neutral backdrops for educational activities. In doing so, the article introduces maintenance as its key concept, drawing on insights from maintenance studies and actor-network theory (ANT). Being both theoretically and empirically informed, maintenance means reconsiderinThis article explores lesson enactments as co-constitutive of human-technology relationality in everyday schooling, rather than neutral backdrops for educational activities.

This paper examines the implications of platforms as a repertoire for knowing and relating the intensities of pandemic restrictions on teaching and schoolwork. Building on platformisation in education, what work platforms do in unpredictable everyday pedagogical encounters is investigated. Specifically, the paper explores a methodological potential with platforms’ capabilities to pull some things This paper examines the implications of platforms as a repertoire for knowing and relating the intensities of pandemic restrictions on teaching and schoolwork.

The thesis investigates everyday teaching with digital technology duringthe Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021. The pandemic was one of theworld’s largest disruptions to everyday education with both health andeducation at stake. With the pandemic control measures affecting uppersecondary education in Sweden, gathering in the classroom cannot betaken for granted and digital technologies accelerated
This invention is directed to a method for the preparation of docetaxel having an amorphous, anhydrous crystalline, or hydrated crystalline structure. In accordance with the invention, highly pure amorphous, anhydrous crystalline, or hydrated crystalline docetaxel can be produced with a high yield by using a solvent precipitation method, colloid formation method, etc.
Provided is a method for preparing a taxane derivative, comprising: carrying out condensation of a phenylisoserine derivatives having a protective group introduced thereto or a mixture of isomers thereof, as a side chain, with a baccatin III derivative or 10-deacetyl-baccatin III derivative to obtain a mixture of isomers; separating the isomers via chromatography; and carrying out a reversion of t
Frequent wildfires increasingly impact tourist populations, yet there is a shortage of evidence-based, human-centered tools for wildfire risk reduction tailored to these areas. Most current tools focus primarily on assessing and reducing physical vulnerabilities, overlooking human aspects. While some community wildfire management guidelines exist, actionable strategies for disaster managers to add
The rapid development of generative AI has prompted a surge in future-oriented documents on a wide range of anticipated educational concern within the Nordic welfare state. Among these, the roadmap has become an increasingly popular foresight technique, exemplified by the AI Commission’s Roadmap for Sweden, which is the focus of the paper. Mobilised within an anticipatory regime of future thinking
This invention is directed to a method for efficiently separating and purifying 13-dehydroxybaccatin III and 10-deacetylpaclitaxel with a high purity of 90% or higher purity, preferably 99.5% or higher purity, from taxane-containing materials such as Taxus species, and the thusly obtained highly pure 13-dehydroxybaccatin III and 10-deacetylpaclitaxel can be used as semi-synthetic precursors of pac
Tracking animal displacement on video recording is a frequently used method in ethology, behavioral ecology, and neuroscience to characterize animal behavior in an automated and objective way. We propose here a quick-start tutorial of AnimalTA, a video tracking program, which aims to provide a free, open-source, and user-friendly tool for the scientific community. The strength of this software res
