In this article, the Swedish findings from a European comparative study on 0-3-year-old children and their digital lives are presented and discussed in relation to domestication theory, including the concept of moral economy. More specifically, attention is paid to toddler's appropriation of digital technology and the parents' moral struggles: the negotiations between the parents concerning the in

During the Christianization of the early Slavic realms at the turn of the tenth century, a specific type of noble passion-bearing saint came about. Four saints were promoted in short succession in the western, north-eastern, and south-eastern Slavic realms in the span of less than a hundred years. All four were promoted as noble passion-bearing saints and prototypes of the good Christian ruler. Th

Objectives: The primary aim of this review was to investigate neurocognitive outcomes following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Specifically, the focus was on identifying the different neurocognitive domains that are assessed, the measures used, and the level of, and criteria for, impairment. Design and review methods: A systematic review of the literature from 2006 to 2021 was completed us

Background: The WHO-recommended tuberculosis screening and diagnostic algorithm in ambulatory people living with HIV is a four-symptom screen (known as the WHO-recommended four symptom screen [W4SS]) followed by a WHO-recommended molecular rapid diagnostic test (eg Xpert MTB/RIF [hereafter referred to as Xpert]) if W4SS is positive. To inform updated WHO guidelines, we aimed to assess the diagnost

One of the great challenges within software testing is to know ira test suite covers a program sufficiently. Mutation analysis is presented as an approach to address that challenge. Faulty versions, or mutants, are created and it is investigated if the test suite is able to discover the defects. The technique is mostly applied to the unit level testing of software programs. In this paper, mutation

Three decades ago, systematic research on possible acute and long-term aftereffects of peritraumatic dissociation (PD) was partly spurred by the proposal of a Brief Reactive Dissociative Disorder (BRDD) and the associated literature reviews and analyses of datasets (Cardeña, Lewis-Fernández, Beahr, Pakianathan & Spiegel, 1996; Cardeña et al., 1998; Spiegel & Cardeña, 1991). The goal was to

Background The National Comprehensive Cancer Network and American Urological Association guidelines on early detection of prostate cancer recommend biopsy on the basis of high prostate-specific antigen (PSA) velocity, even in the absence of other indications such as an elevated PSA or a positive digital rectal exam (DRE). Methods To evaluate the current guideline, we compared the area under the cu

Purpose:The purpose of this tutorial is to describe an evidence-based scientifically sustainable perceptual assessment of cleft palate speech and how standardized assessment methods for research on cleft palate speech have been implemented in clinical practice in Sweden, which makes it possible to carry out research on clinical data.Method:This tutorial is based on a literature review and own rese

Observations of binaries containing pairs of neutron stars using the upcoming space-based gravitational wave observatory, LISA, have the potential to improve our understanding of neutron star physics and binary evolution. In this work, we assess the effect of changing the model of the Milky Way’s kinematics and star formation history on predictions of the population of double neutron stars that wi

Background and Aim: Strategies to modify and adjust the educational setting in mainstream education for autistic students are under-researched. Hence, this review aims to identify qualitative research results of adaptation and modification strategies to support inclusive education for autistic students at school and classroom levels. Method: In this systematic review, four databases were searched.

Calibration is an important part in all radar cross section measurements. Two different approaches to the calibration of forward and extinction cross section measurements are therefore evaluated and discussed in this paper. The first method is the commonly used calibration method employing a calibration target with a known cross section while the second calibration method does not require a calibr

Metaphrasis: A Byzantine Concept of Rewriting and Its Hagiographical Products represents a first and authoritative discussion of rewriting in Byzantium. It brings together a rich variety of articles that treat the topic of hagiographical rewriting from various angles.The contributors discuss and comment on different kinds of texts in Greek and other languages, including Apophthegmata Patrum, Passi

We present a novel method for the determination of density and compressibility of individual particles and cells undergoing microchannel acoustophoresis in an arbitrary 2D acoustic field. Our method is a critical advancement within acoustophoretic separation of biological cells, as the ability to determine the density and compressibility of individual cells enables the prediction and alteration of

We present, for the first time, separation of three different prostate cancer cell lines from leukocyte fractions by means of continuous flow acoustophoresis. This flow-through separation approach, which utilize acoustophoretic forces to extract CTCs from blood has a significant advantage over affinity based methods in the sense that it comprises a non-contact and label free separation of CTCs fro

Remodelling is an important process in bones in order to maintain bone mass and to recover cracks which naturally develop within the bone material. There is agreement in the literature that the piezoelectric characteristic of bones is one possible initiator of bone remodelling. In recent experimental studies, however, it has been found that cortical bone also exhibits flexoelectric properties whic

Background: Bladder cancer is categorized as non-muscle invasive (NMIBC) or muscle invasive (MIBC). NIMBC makes up around 70% of the cases and although it is less aggressive, the recurrence rate is 50-70%, thus requiring extensive monitoring. Additionally, there is a risk of progression into MIBC with a 5-year survival of only 50% even when treated with radical cystectomy. Immune checkpoint inhibi

Honeybees are one of our most important insects, not only for their pollination services but also for their production of honey. Honey is the main food for honeybees, produced from collected nectars and transported to the hive. Humans have consumed this mysterious food and applied it since ancient times in traditional medicine around the world. In 2005 we discovered an unknown key to honeybees’ he

A tremendous effort has been made over decades to develop technology to edit the genome. Genomes are composed of billions of DNA bases and contain all of the genetic information from organisms. The possibility to change DNA bases at precise sites sheds light on many perspectives, not only molecular biology but also applications in medicine and agriculture. Genome editing tools have come to the rev
