Urban expansion has led to ever increasing noise and light pollution, which impairs the audio-visual perception of wild animals and drives changes in key activities and behaviours. Nocturnal predators may be especially affected in detecting prey, with potentially dramatic consequences for their fitness. However, the combined effects of noise and light pollution on predator performance are still mo
At CHART 2025, Arnstedt Östra Karup will present a collaboration between renowned Swedish artists Peter Frie (b. 1947) and Lars Englund (b. 1933), each with a unique artistic path. Frie will exhibit new paintings, while Englund will showcase one or two of his signature sculptures. Despite their different styles, both artists explore timelessness, where history, present, and future merge. Alongside
Currant, and in particular blackcurrant, Ribes nigrum, is widely grown in Europe. It is the host of a number of pest insects, but their occurrence and the damage they cause vary geographically. In northern Europe, three lepidopteran species, the currant shoot borer (Lampronia capitella), the currant clearwing (Synanthedon tipuliformis), and the currant bud moth (Euhyponomeutoides albithoracellus),
Aims: The objective of this study was to compare the risk of developing type 1 diabetes in individuals with celiac disease, hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism to that of individuals without those conditions. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective, observational, matched-cohort study based on real-world claims data, individuals with at least one diagnosis of celiac disease, hyperthyroidism (e
Despite extensive research on Quality-of-Services (QoS) analysis of 5G networks, practical applications remain limited. This gap may be attributed to the lack of available tools and the complexity of developing or configuring technical systems to implement theoretical approaches. To address this, we developed an edge control system within a private 5G base station, utilizing Precision Time Protoco
The Swedish population is characterized by high life expectancy and low avoidable mortality rates. This review outlines the Swedish healthcare system, which offers universal access to all residents and has a long tradition of reforms for social equity. Responsibility for healthcare is shared between the state, the regions, and the municipalities. The Ministry of Health and Social Affairs provides
BACKGROUND: Some per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) such as perfluorohexane sulfonic acid (PFHxS), perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) are very long-lived in humans, with serum half-lives of several years. In PFAS hot spots, such as Ronneby, Sweden, high exposures over time have led to markedly elevated serum PFAS levels, which may result in health risks
Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection is a crucial step in ensuring robustness and trustworthiness for deep learning (DL) models. This is particularly important for classification tasks in medical applications. Previous work has shown that point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) imaging combined with a DL classification network could improve access to early breast cancer diagnosis. In this work, we investi
Purpose: To map and summarise the available knowledge regarding older adults’ experiences of team-based home rehabilitation. Method: The Johanna Briggs Institute (JBI) guidelines for scoping reviews guided the process. Eight databases, eight organisational websites, one registry and Google Scholar were searched. Searches were limited to publications published from 2006 to 2023 in English and Scand
Introduction: Acute lower limb ischemia (ALI) is a life and limb threatening event often affecting patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Little is known about how T2DM affects the risk of adverse events in patients revascularized for ALI. This study aimed to investigate if there were differences in major outcomes between ALI patients with and without T2DM. Methods: Between 2010 and 2014,
Purpose: Consistent, accurate postoperative guidance is crucial for early recovery and patient satisfaction in urology, especially for radical prostatectomy (RP) patients. However, patients often receive inconsistent information, highlighting the need for standardized, evidence-based postoperative care guidelines. Materials and Methods: We conducted a comprehensive review and evaluation of current
This study explores how listeners use verb constructions to describeeveryday sounds. It considers (i) how the verb constructions provide Gestaltto events in the form of activities, processes and states, and (ii) how theconstructions correspond to different aspects of a soundscape (soundsources, acoustic properties, and listener reactions). We found that verbconstructions primarily describe sound s
Aim: The primary aim was to investigate the incidence, birth characteristics, and timing of diagnosis of cephalhaematoma (CH). The secondary aim was to explore associations between CH and complications during the neonatal period and infancy. Methods: This is a nationwide population-based register study of infants (< 12 months) born in Sweden from 1997 to 2018. Information was retrieved from health
Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) is an additive manufacturing process based on Material Extrusion (MEX) of polymeric filament. This manufacturing technology is commonly used for personalized production applications and prototyping, allowing to obtain customized parts with complex geometries at a low cost. However, this production technique has its limitations regarding dimensional accuracy and sur
Situated at the junction of Cognitive Semantics and Experimental Phenomenology, this study investigates how participants perceive the structure of 18 perceptual dimensions of opposites across the visual, auditory, tactile, gustatory and olfactory sensory modalities. The structures include three components: two poles (HIGH; LOW) and an intermediate (NEITHER HIGH NOR LOW). Participants were asked to
Increasing extreme heat events in the tropics are creating dangerous environments in schools. There are limited data, however, on the extent of extreme heat in such classrooms and effective heat-mitigation strategies. This study presents the first long-term analysis of classroom temperatures in Ghanaian schools, measuring conditions in 16 classrooms in Accra over 389 days. It highlights the condit
Quality goals have evolved according to the industrial revolution stages from ‘Small Quality’ to ‘Big Quality’ and now to ‘Open Quality’ in the digital transformation era. This study systematically reviews the chronological development of quality paradigms describing how quality management has evolved from Small to Big to Open Quality. We delineate the concept of Open Quality, emphasizing MTCI-bas
We determined the 2025-2040 impact of climate and land use land cover change on streamflow in the Sironko catchment. LULCC was predicted using Cellular Automata Markov. The climate was statistically downscaled from the 29 GCMs of the IPCC Fifth Coupled Model Intercomparison Project using the delta method of the Agricultural Model Inter-comparison and Improvement Project under five climate regimes
