Vi människor lever genom berättelser, men det är dramat som ställer livet och levandet på sin spets, som får oss att lyssna mer uppmärksamt, minnas viktiga erfarenheter bättre, känna starkare och tänka klarare. Därför dramatiseras nyheter och därför konsumerar vi drama från morgon till kväll på tv, mobil och padda. De flesta av oss har därför rika och varierade erfarenheter av drama och vi har nog

Ultrasound optical tomography combines light and ultrasound measuring optical properties deep inside the body. We experimentally characterize cancer mimicking inclusions in breast tissue phantoms and theoretically simulate imaging performance at significant depths inside the brain.

We propose analytical expressions for ultrasound optical tomography and verify them in Monte Carlo simulations. The proposed hybrid analytical-statistical Monte Carlo model enables quantitative reconstruction of up to 5-centimetre deep tissue absorption inhomogeneities.

This paper presents a method for mathematical modelling of surfaces conditioned on empirical data. It is based on solving a discrete biharmonic equation over a domain with given inner point and inner curve data. The inner curve data is used to model boundary values while the inner point data is used for modeling a load vector with the goal to generate a smooth surface. The construction of boun

In May 2024 with a subsequent update in June 2025, the Swedish Medical Products Agency’s expert group revised guidelines on the management and treatment of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. This is an abridged version and commentary on the full recommendation including specific recommendations for the RSV-season 2025/2026. Key points are: (i) RSV is a seasonal, highly contagious infecti

Background: Gut dysbiosis and gut-brain-axis involvement in people with Parkinson's disease (PwP) support the use of gut-microbiota-modulating interventions. Probiotics may help manage constipation in PwP; however, mechanisms underpinning additional beneficial properties are unknown. Objective: The aim was evaluating the effects of a probiotic (Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus acidophil

Transition to a circular plastic economy requires rethinking of the entire value chain from the raw materials and energy used for production, to material design, collection and recycling. Our focus has mainly been on polyesters as they span a wide scope of applications and properties ranging from durable to biodegradable. This presentation will highlight our work on designing and developing the bi

The paper is a keynote talk, introducing the problem with texts that are not finished - or maybe not even written at all but - but still haunts the imagination of the writer, specifically the creative writing student.

CONTEXT: Statin use is associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes and mild hyperglycemia. The underlying mechanisms are not well studied and the effect of statin treatment on GLP-1 secretion or production are unknown.OBJECTIVE: To assess the effects of rosuvastatin on GLP-1 secretion and production.METHODS: We performed association studies in the Malmö Diet and Cancer study cardiovascular c

USP11 is a promising therapeutic target implicated in Alzheimer’s disease and various cancers; however, no specific inhibitors are currently available, with the only known inhibitor being mitoxantrone, which primarily targets topoisomerase II. To identify novel chemical starting points, we conducted high-throughput virtual screening using a USP11 homology model. Screening over 600,000 compounds yi

PARP15 is a mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase that targets an unknown set of proteins as well as RNA. Its evolutionary relationship with PARP14 suggests roles in antiviral defence; its localization to stress granules points to functions in the regulation of translation. Here we show that the transferase domain of PARP15 dimerizes in solution; the formation of dimers is a prerequisite for catalytic activ
