Robotic systems often face execution failures due to unexpected obstacles, sensor errors, or environmental changes. Traditional failure recovery methods rely on predefined strategies or human intervention, making them less adaptable. This paper presents a unified failure recovery framework that combines Vision-Language Models (VLMs), a reactive planner, and Behavior Trees (BTs) to enable real-time

Background: Large lower eyelid defects resulting from tumour removal are frequently reconstructed using a tarsoconjunctival flap from the upper eyelid together with an overlying free skin graft, the so-called Hughes procedure. One disadvantage of this technique is that the tarsoconjunctival flap occludes the eye during the revascularization of the graft, which is particularly troublesome for patie
Background: Standardised language tests provide a reliable framework for assessing language deficits in individuals with aphasia, but have long been lacking for various languages, including Swedish. The purpose of this study was to examine the diagnostic accuracy and establish the norm-references of the Swedish version of the Comprehensive Aphasia Test (CAT-S). Methods: Consecutive patients with a
Renewable energy generation is a key to a sustainable future. Efforts are continuously being made to develop new technologies that improve energy harnessing in a more sustainable way. Additionally, existing systems are being improved with modern practices to increase their resilience and efficiency. However, the transition from conventional to digital energy systems brings significant cybersecurit
A vacuum-free, high-throughput synthesis of indium tin oxide (ITO) via Combustion Oxidation with Rapid Plasma Processing (CORP) utilizes a solution-based exothermic combustion reaction to generate the oxide with tunable control of either amorphous or crystalline phases. A subsequent open-air, forming gas plasma treatment is used to introduce oxygen vacancies and promote crystallization. The evolut
Theories of predictive processing postulate that the brain continuously generates predictions about future linguistic input. Many different linguistic elements have been found to function as predictive cues. One such element is classifiers, i.e., morphemes that classify noun referents according to some semantic property. However, very few studies have so far investigated the predictive function of
Semiconductor nanowires provide a versatile platform for fluorescence-based detection enabled by their high refractive index and waveguiding properties, which amplify excitation and emission from surface-bound fluorophores. Together with their large surface-to-volume ratio, these features enable enhanced and even single-molecule sensitivity.This thesis explores the use of gallium phosphide (GaP) a
Abstract: Background: Shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC) inducing hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) with multiple organ involvement is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The treatment has mostly been focused on kidney, respiratory and cardiovascular supports and not against the bacteria that cause STEC-HUS. The use of bactericidal therapy has been shown to be antibiotic Background: Shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC) inducing hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) with multiple organ involvement is associated with significant morbidity and mortality.

AbstractAim: This study sought to investigate the hypothesis that children dying outside a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) after PICU discharge have a limitation of medical treatment (LOMT) order in place, limiting PICU readmission at the time of death.Methods: A cohort was identified of all children (n=3890; 5019 admissions) treated in a PICU in Sweden over 3 consecutive years between Januar
AbstractBackground: The pathophysiological mechanisms underlying single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) virus infections have been investigated extensively and at an accelerated pace in recent years, largely driven by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Online teaching for place-based experiential learning is a rather new practice that can be used to create a more engaging and comprehensive learning experience. Though, it is a challenge to deliver experiential learning and place-based education in online teaching. This paper reports how we tackled this challenge in the pedagogical development of an interdisciplinary course within the European Uni
We study large n expansions for the partition function of a Coulomb gas (Formula presented.) where Q is a radially symmetric confining potential on the complex plane C. The droplet is not assumed to be connected, but may consist of a number of disjoint annuli and possibly a central disk. The boundary condition is “soft edge”, i.e., Q is smooth in a C-neighbourhood of the droplet. We include the fo
This editorial introduces the Special Section on 'The Borders Within: Socio-Economic Rights and Non-discrimination in EU Law' whose purpose is to provide a comprehensive and non-fragmented understanding of socio-economic rights, the right to non-discrimination and their meaning for welfare in EU Member States. Under EU law the boundaries between national socio-economic policies and the enjoyment o
Anterior cord herniation is due to a ventral displacement of the spinal cord through a defect in the dura and/or arachnoid.1 Though the condition is rare, some case reports are available.1-3 The neurological symptoms can slowly deteriorate over several years.3 A Brown-Séquard-like syndrome is the most common presenting neurological finding.2,4 Asymptomatic cases may be discovered incidentally.4 Ho
This chapter examines the experiences of children in the Holocaust in various geographic contexts. It raises questions about the avenues for rescue and survival of children and the limits of children’s agency. How did gender, age, and family background play a role? And how did children adjust to or resist their new - and supposedly temporary - separation from their families?.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) leads to intracerebral inflammation involving resident microglial cells and astrocytes as well as invading peripheral dendritic cells (DCs), monocytes, and neutrophils. However, the profile of immune blood cells activated by TBI remains poorly defined. Several animal models showing invasion of circulating classical dendritic cells type 2 (cDC2s) to the traumatically in
INTRODUCTION: As the world population is rapidly becoming older, the incidence of traumatic brain injury (TBI) is increasing among older adults with vast implications for brain health of older adults in Europe. Due to differences from younger patients, there are areas of uncertainty in the assessment, diagnosis and management of TBI in older adults.RESEARCH QUESTION: To reach a consensus among exp
