Cu2O has emerged as a promising material for sustainable hydrogen production through photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting, while inefficient charge separation remains one of the main challenges hindering its development. In this work, a new architecture of InAlN/Cu2O heterojunction photocathode is demonstrated by combining n-type InAlN and p-type Cu2O to improve the charge separation efficie
In translational research, there is a need for preclinical studies of high quality that corresponds to the conformal dose distributions conventionally delivered to humans in the modern radiotherapy clinic. To facilitate this need, novel preclinical systems consist of preclinical radiation platforms and small animal treatment planning systems. However, small-field dosimetry is challenging and requi
Intensity Analysis (IA) of land use and land cover change (LULCC) is important to support policy and practice. We applied IA to analyse LULCC in Sironko catchment, Uganda. Results show that agricultural land, forest, and wetland reduced by 8%; 32%; and 20% between 1986-2000. Between 2000-2016, forest, wetland, and built-up areas increased by 84%, 5%, and 57%. Active gainers between 1986-2000 were
Objective: Supported education (SEd) provides individualized support to people with mental health problems to achieve their educational goals. Individual placement and support (IPS) has emerged as a model through which SEd may be efficiently delivered. However, the components and characteristics of educational support for these employment-focused services have not been fully explored. Building on
Digitalization is continuously demanding new, or revitalized, rights. Recently, this can be seen in calls for privacy rights or data subjects’ rights to control ‘their’ data. In parallel to this development, there are also both theoretical and activist developments to expand the notion of rights all together, beyond a human/ist understanding of rights, into ‘more-than-human’ rights. In this chapte
Walking and cycling are considered sustainable transport modes, promoted as a means to reduce car traffic. In the scientific literature, they have mostly been investigated separately, but should be considered jointly to enable a modal shift. Both daytime and dark conditions need to be studied, to improve understanding of how environmental features are affected by temporal variation. A conceptual m
It has proven difficult to distinguish between topological Majorana bound states and nontopological Andreev bound states and to measure the unique properties of the former. In this work, we aim to alleviate this problem by proposing and theoretically analyzing a different type of fusion protocol based on transport measurements in a Majorana box coupled to normal leads. The protocol is based on swi
The magnetic structure of Fe5O6 is studied using a combination of the group-theoretical analysis and DFT + U calculations of the electronic spectrum. The calculations are performed for the magnetic k = (0, 0, 0) vector. The magnetic ground state corresponds to the orthogonal ordering of two magnetic subsystems: the magnetic moments of Fe2+/Fe3+ ions located at the octahedral sites (slabs of octahe
Background: The purpose was to evaluate glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and total-tau in plasma as predictors of poor neurological outcome after out-of-hospital (OHCA) and in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA), including comparisons with neurofilament light (NFL) and neuron-specific enolase (NSE). Methods: Retrospective multicentre observational study of patients admitted to an intensive care u
Based on narrative interviews with Syrian refugees arriving in Europe via the Mediterranean Sea, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of the decision-making processes involved in migration. It explores the interplay between the subjective factors such as risk perception and desire experienced by Syirans who took risky sea crossings. The primary analytical approach involves comparing th
Background: We developed a fully automated artificial intelligence (AI)AI-based-based method for detecting suspected lymph node metastases in prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)(PSMA) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT)(PET-CT) images of prostate cancer patients by using data augmentation that adds synthetic lymph node metastases to the images to expand the training set
This study investigates speech production under various room acoustic conditions in virtual environments, by comparing vocal behavior and the subjective experience of speaking in four real rooms and their audio-visual virtual replicas. Sex differences were explored. Males and females (N = 13) adjusted their voice levels similarly to room acoustic changes in the real rooms, but only males did so in
Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate if time to start chemotherapy (TTC) after primary debulking surgery (PDS) impacted relative survival (RS) in advanced epithelial ovarian/fallopian tube/primary peritoneal cancer (EOC). Methods: Nationwide population-based study of women with EOC FIGO stages IIIC-IV, registered 2008–2018 in the Swedish Quality Register for Gynecologic Cancer, treat
Although mitochondrial respiration is believed to explain a substantial part of the variation in resting metabolic rate (RMR), few studies have empirically studied the relationship between organismal and cellular metabolism. We therefore investigated the relationship between RMR and mitochondrial respiration of permeabilized blood cells in wild great tits (Parus major L.). We also studied the corr
Objective. To evaluate patient-reported outcomes (PROs) after initiation of tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) treatment in European real-world patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Further, to investigate PRO remission rates across treatment courses, registries, disease duration, sex, and age at disease onset. Methods. Visual analog scale or numerical rating scale scores for pain, fatigue,
Människors nyfikenhet och drivkraft att förstå och mäta vår värld har lett till många vetenskapliga framsteg. Vårt ständiga sökande efter kunskap har hjälpt oss att bland annat förhindra sjukdomar, förbättra skördar och förstå de ekosystem vi lever i. Dock varierar förutsättningar och utmaningar för forskning runt om i världen, och i många forskningsmiljöer saknas det tillgång till avancerad labor
Anticoagulation may in the future become a therapeutic option for the prevention of liver fibrosis, such as due to recurrent hepatitis C virus infection after liver transplantation. Currently, there are other indications for anticoagulation after liver transplantation but no data regarding its safety. The objective of the study was to audit the safety of anticoagulation after liver transplantation
