Background: Ovarian cancer presents with non-specific symptoms that make early diagnosis challenging and the prognosis poor. Ovarian and endometrial cancers exhibit similar genomic mutations and biomarker profiles. Endogenous volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are products of metabolic activity. In cancer, metabolites increase due to tumour necrosis, leading to cancer-specific VOC patterns. The aim
The preparation of perovskite solar cells from the liquid phase is a cornerstone of their immense potential. However, a clear relationship between the precursor ink and the formation of the resulting perovskite is missing. Established theories, such as heterogeneous nucleation and lead complex colloid formation, often prove unreliable, which has led to an overreliance on heuristics. Most high-perf
Effective coastal exposure assessments are crucial for adaptively managing threats from sea-level rise (SLR). Despite recent advances, global and regional assessments are constrained by omitting critical factors such as land-use change, failing to disaggregate potential impacts by land uses and oversimplifying land subsidence. Here we address these gaps by developing context-specific scenarios to
Background: Out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a significant public health problem associated with high mortality and high healthcare costs. The Targeted Therapeutic Mild Hypercapnia after Resuscitated Cardiac Arrest (TAME) randomised clinical trial showed that targeted mild hypercapnia did not lead to better neurologic outcomes at 6 months compared to normocapnia after OHCA. We aimed to est
Alison Scott–Baumann’s Paul Ricoeur: Empowering Education, Politics and Society employs Ricoeur’s philosophy to unpack contemporary universities’ struggles with polarisation and activism. Though short in form, this rich critical study illuminates how universities understand themselves and why fostering dialogue around disagreements and controversies can enable more inclusive, empowered academic co
We study two-dimensional, stationary square and hexagonal patterns in the thermocapillary deformational thin-film model for the fluid height h [Formula presented] that can be formally derived from the Bénard–Marangoni problem via a long-wave approximation. Using a linear stability analysis, we show that the flat surface profile corresponding to the pure conduction state destabilises at a critical
In this paper, we present a new generic Structure-From-Motion pipeline, GenSfM, that uses a non-parametric camera projection model. The model is self-calibrated during the reconstruction process and can fit a wide variety of cameras, ranging from simple low-distortion pinhole cameras to more extreme optical systems such as fisheye or catadioptric cameras. The key component in our framework is an a
Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is a prevalent inflammatory skin condition triggered by allergens such as 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (MI), a common preservative. The incidence of contact allergy to MI has fallen in Europe in recent years, attributable to government regulation limiting concentrations of MI I; however, incidence continues to rise in the USA. The pattern and extent of distributi
Den femte mars i år kom det in en begäran om återlämnande till Historiska museet vid Lunds universitet. Begäran kom in från privatpersoner bördiga från Luleå samt Lule-Boden Sameförening och berör kranier efter två samiska individer.
The electricity market exhibits significant uncertainty arising from rapid fluctuations in prices, variations in load demand, and the intermittent nature of renewable energy resources. Effectively managing residential energy under these dynamic conditions is a challenging task. Demand Response (DR) offers a practical solution by enabling the flexible scheduling of energy consumption in response to
Given ongoing debates about the nature and consequences of religious belief, effective procedures for experimentally controlling such beliefs are highly desirable. To date, however, there are few robust, replicable methods. Here, we show that the “choice blindness” paradigm can be leveraged to directly manipulate religious beliefs and attitudes in a way that avoids demand characteristics. Across t
This study evaluates the design choices of a two-day, industry-collaborative case competition at Campus Helsingborg and their effect on student motivation and engagement. Using pre and post Self-Determination Theory surveys, observations, and interviews we observed very high intrinsic (4.82/5) and extrinsic motivation (4.33/5). The perceived value of competition elements increased consistently aft
Background: The eco-corona, consisting of environmental biomolecules formed around engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) when released to the environment, has gained increasing focus in the scientific literature and its role for ENM fate and toxicity is now widely acknowledged. The European chemicals legislation, REACH, entails reporting requirements when it comes to the transformation of nanoforms. Gui
Infectious diseases have had devastating effects on human populations throughout history, but important questions about their origins and past dynamics remain1. To create an archaeogenetic-based spatiotemporal map of human pathogens, we screened shotgun-sequencing data from 1,313 ancient humans covering 37,000 years of Eurasian history. We demonstrate the widespread presence of ancient bacterial,
Ancient genomic studies have extensively explored human-microbial interactions, yet research on non-human animals remains limited. In this study, we analyzed ancient microbial DNA from 483 mammoth remains spanning over 1 million years, including 440 newly sequenced and unpublished samples from a 1.1-million-year-old steppe mammoth. Using metagenomic screening, contaminant filtering, damage pattern
Objective: Both attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and neighborhood deprivation have been previously associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, the potential association between neighborhood deprivation and T2D in ADHD patients remains underexplored. Our aim was to study the potential effect of neighborhood deprivation on incident T2D in patients with ADHD. M
Background: Patients undergoing allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT) often face complex and evolving needs throughout recovery. Person-centred nursing (PCN) is essential in this context yet remains underexplored in specialised care settings. In Sweden, the Assessment of Rehabilitation Needs Checklist (ARNC) is commonly used in cancer care, but its role in supporting perso
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the interplay and influence of anxiety and depression between patients with low-risk localized prostate cancer on active surveillance (AS) and their close allies. The research sought to determine if emotional states are interdependent within these dyads, hypothesizing that both actor (self) and partner (close ally) effects would be significant. Met
