Influence of autochthonous Lactiplantibacillus plantarum strains on microbial safety and bioactive compounds in a fermented quinoa-based beverage as a non-dairy alternative

Plant-based alternatives are considered microbiologically safe; however, recent studies have raised concerns about hygienic quality. Additionally, the relationship between microbiological safety and polyphenolic content in fermented products remains unexplored. This study assessed the potential of four autochthonous Lactiplantibacillus plantarum strains (3, 5, 9, and 10) to impact microbial com

Determining the effect of frailty on survival in advanced ovarian cancer: study protocol for a prospective multicentre national cohort study (FOLERO)

Background and purpose: There is an urgent need to improve patient-selection to surgical treatment in advanced ovarian cancer as our results showed that cytoreductive surgery was without effect or even detrimental in a yet unknown subgroup of women. With an ageing population, 30% of women with advanced ovarian cancer in Sweden are >75 years. Nevertheless, there are no recommendations on patient-se

Efficient Two-view Estimation using Richer Geometric Correspondences

Two-view estimation is a fundamental problem in 3D computer vision, and an important sub-task of multi-view estimation pipelines such as Structure-from-Motion (SfM) and Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM). In recent years, the main focus in the field has been on keypoint-based methods, where interest points are first detected and matched across the two images, followed by robust estimatio

Increased frontocortical microvascular raspberry density in frontotemporal lobar degeneration compared to Lewy body disease and control cases: a neuropathological study

Background: Brain raspberries are histologically defined microvascular entities that are highly prevalent in the neocortex. Increased cortical raspberry density occurs in vascular dementia, but also with advancing age. Here, we examined the raspberry density in two neurodegenerative diseases, wherein vascular alterations distinct from conventional vascular risk factors have been indicated: frontot

Visualization of unsteady combustion of single aluminum droplets: coalescence, eruption and fragmentation

Detailed characterization of the unsteady combustion behaviors of individual aluminum (Al) droplets is scarce, due to the experimental challenges in resolving the transient phenomena at the micrometer scale. In this work, we spatiotemporally elucidate the complex interplay, including droplet coalescence, eruption, and fragmentation, of individually burning Al droplets and alumina (Al2O3) products,

High Hopes and Hard Lessons : How Problems Are Represented in Swedish Teacher Education Reform

In this paper, I draw on my background as an educational scientist with roots in sociology and gender studies to explore how public debate, political reforms, and policy documents shape Swedish teacher education with the aim of reforming not only the school system but also Swedish society. Historically, teacher education in Sweden has been influenced by visionary ideals, particularly with the intr

Förutbestämda liv och utbildningens syfte : En litteratursociologisk läsning av Kazuo Ishiguros roman Never Let Me Go

Den här studien tar sin utgångspunkt i Kazuo Ishiguros dystopiska roman Never Let Me Go. Med teoretiskt stöd från Gert Biestas (2011) tre utbildningsdimensioner – kvalificering, socialisering och subjektifiering – samt barndomssociologins dikotomi being och becoming (Jenks 1982; James, Jenks & Prout 1998), analyseras hur romanen förhåller sig till och problematiserar relationen mellan barndom,

Gamifying user feedback collection on static program analysis tools

Use of static program analysis tools can be highly beneficial in software development, but usage is hindered by usability issues. One method to better understand these issues is to gather user feedback, but it is challenging to get developers to invest effort in giving user feedback.In this paper, we investigate whether gamification can increase user engagement in feedback collection on static ana

A CO2–Δ14CO2 inversion setup for estimating European fossil CO2 emissions

Independent estimation and verification of fossil CO2 emissions on a regional and national scale are crucial for evaluating the fossil CO2 emissions and reductions reported by countries as part of their nationally determined contributions (NDCs). Top-down methods, such as the assimilation of in situ and satellite observations of different tracers (e.g., CO2, CO, Δ14CO2, XCO2), have been increasing

Recession experiences during early adulthood shape prosocial attitudes later in life

This paper explores whether the experience of a recession during early adulthood shapes individuals’ prosocial attitudes. The analysis uses survey responses to experimentally validated questions that measure prosocial attitudes for approximately 64,000 respondents in 74 countries. The identification approach exploits variation in recession experiences across 75 different birth cohorts. We find tha

A statistical approach for water movement in the unsaturated zone

This work presents a statistical approach for estimating and analyzing the downward transport pattern and distribution of soil water by the use of pattern analysis of space-time correlation structures. This approach, called the Space-time Correlation Field, is mainly based on the analyses of correlation functions simultaneously in the space and time domain.The overall purpose of this work is to de

Introduction

In this introduction, we explain how the chapters in this volume give support to the idea that different accounts of active cognition in the history of philosophy directly or indirectly respond to Aristotle’s account of cognition in his De anima.

Boethius of Dacia (1270s) and Radulphus Brito (1290s) on the Universal Sign ‘Every’

In this article I present the analysis of the syncategorematic term ‘omnis’ in the commentaries on the Topics by the Parisian masters of Arts Boethius of Dacia and Radulphus Brito. I shall focus on the different relations between subject, predicate and particular instances that obtain in universally quantified statements, and in particular on the relations that obtain in universally quantified sta

No title

The question 'whether an utterance (word/term/name) loses its signification with the destruction of things (i.e. things signified)' is raised as a question about the truth-value of assertions with an empty term as a subject, namely as a sub-problem of the sophism 'Whether "omnis homo de necessitate est animal" is true when no man exists (=OHNEA)'. In this paper, I shall introduce the discussions a
