Realizing the AF4-UV-SAXS on-line coupling on protein and antibodies using high flux synchrotron radiation at the CoSAXS beamline, MAX IV

In this paper, we demonstrate the coupling of synchrotron small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) to asymmetrical flow-field flow fractionation (AF4) for protein characterization. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time AF4 is successfully coupled to a synchrotron for on-line measurements on proteins. This coupling has potentially high impact, as it opens the possibility to characterize i

Leveraging national opportunities for regional transformation : multi-scalar system-building and legitimation in a Swiss industrial town

European regions are currently confronted with significant challenges stemming from the green transition and technological disruption. These challenges impose growing pressure on regions to restructure their economies and transition towards more sustainable and innovative modes of production. While the existing literature extensively addresses regional transformation, less attention has been devot

Decoding Auditory Attention From EEG Data Using Cepstral Analysis

Recent studies of selective auditory attention have demonstrated that neural responses recorded with electroencephalogram (EEG) can be decoded to classify the attended talker in everyday multitalker cocktail-party environments. This is generally referred to as the auditory attention decoding (AAD) and could lead to a breakthrough for the next-generation of hearing aids (HAs) to have the ability to

Key Device Attributes for Injectable Somatostatin Receptor Ligand Therapy in Acromegaly and Neuroendocrine Tumours

Introduction: People living with acromegaly and neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) may be treated with injectable somatostatin receptor ligands (SRLs), administered by either a caregiver or as self-injection via a proprietary or generic device. Injection device attributes that contribute to ease of use and storage, minimise preparation requirements, and reduce injection pain are associated with improve

Machinic Landscapes : Aesthetics of the Nonhuman

If the Anthropocene marks a changed way of being in the world resulting from the integration of human activity and geological processes, a main question is how this situation may be aesthetically represented and with what implications. This article sketches an aesthetics of the Anthropocene by analyzing artistic engagements with advanced tools of visual calculation used in the context of the envir

A diagnosis of society and Nordic sociology

Why are Nordic sociologists not providing diagnoses of society these days? What has happened to our desire to describe the wider sociocultural currents of the world we live in? Where indeed are the present-day Danish Sennett, the Finnish Rosa, or the Swedish Bauman? These questions resurface now and again, yet without gaining substantial traction. Even so, present-day Nordic sociology is in many w

Charcot Foot Offloading in Stage 0 Is Associated With Shorter Total Contact Cast Treatment and Lower Risk of Recurrence and Reconstructive Surgery : A Pilot Study

OBJECTIVE: Charcot foot (CF) requires prolonged offloading of the affected foot to decrease the risk of deformity. The earliest phase in active CF (stage 0) is characterized by inflammatory signs without established fractures or skeletal deformity. We investigated whether offloading in stage 0 influences duration of total contact casting (TCC), risk of recurrence, and future need for surgery.RESEA

Tumour deposits in colon cancer predict recurrence and reduced survival in a nationwide population-based study

Background: Tumour deposits are suggested to impact prognosis in colon cancer negatively. This study assessed the impact of tumour deposits on oncological outcomes.Methods: Data from the Swedish Colorectal Cancer Registry for patients who underwent R0 abdominal surgery for TNM stage I-III colon cancer between 2011 and 2014 with 5-year follow-up were analysed with multivariable analysis. Patients w

Types of Water Rights Systems in China: A Zoning Scheme Applied

This article analyzes the appropriate types of water rights systems for different regions with varying water resource conditions in China. The most appropriate water rights systems for various zones were determined by comparing the value of influencing factors with corresponding thresholds in China’s second-class zones of water resources. It is shown that a riparian rights system under water withd

Diet, Status, and incipient social Inequality : Stable isotope data from three complex Fisher-Hunter-Gatherer sites in southern California

How different were the lives of elites and commoners in early complex societies? This paper examines this question using data from three fisher-hunter-gatherer sites in southern California. Using shell bead counts from burials as proxies for social status and previously published human stable isotope values as indicators of dietary practices, we examine the relationship between diet and status acr

Massive intein content in Anaeramoeba reveals aspects of intein mobility in eukaryotes

Inteins are self-splicing protein elements found in viruses and all three domains of life. How the DNA encoding these selfish elements spreads within and between genomes is poorly understood, particularly in eukaryotes where inteins are scarce. Here, we show that the nuclear genomes of three strains of Anaeramoeba encode between 45 and 103 inteins, in stark contrast to four found in the most inte

Add-on pramipexole for anhedonic depression : study protocol for a randomised controlled trial and open-label follow-up in Lund, Sweden

INTRODUCTION: Many depressed patients do not achieve remission with available treatments. Anhedonia is a common residual symptom associated with treatment resistance as well as low function and quality of life. There are currently no specific and effective treatments for anhedonia. Some trials have shown that dopamine agonist pramipexole is efficacious for treating depression, but more data is nee

The Use of Professional Development to Enhance Education of Students with Autism : A Systematic Review

The study objective in this article was to present the state-of-the-art on teachers’ professional development to enhance educational quality for students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) in primary and secondary education. A systematic review was conducted, following the PRISMA guidelines. Quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods studies were eligible for inclusion. Fifteen studies were id

Teachers’ relational competence : perceptions of teachers and students with and without ADHD and ASD

This study examined whether teachers’ professional development of their relational competence with students with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and/or autism spectrum disorder (ASD) modifies teachers’ and students’ perceptions of their teacher-student relationships (TSR). Participants comprised teachers (n = 33) and students (n = 232) from two elementary schools: one intervention
