Real-world analysis of MET exon 14 mutations in non-small cell lung cancer : a retrospective study from two Swedish hospitals

Background: Real-World evidence on mesenchymal-epithelial transition exon 14 skipping mutations (METex14) in lung cancer remains limited. With an incidence of 3–4% across histological subtypes, METex14 is now an actionable target for MET inhibitors (METi) in advanced lung cancer, demonstrating response rates between 30–70%. Yet, its role in early stages and sensitivity to immune checkpoint inhibit

Increasing global ecosystem respiration between 1982 and 2015 from Earth observation-based modelling

Aim: Earth observation-based estimates of land–atmosphere exchange of carbon are essential for understanding the response of the terrestrial biosphere to climatic change and other anthropogenic forcing. Temperature, soil water content and gross primary production are the main drivers of ecosystem respiration (Reco), and the main aims of this study are to develop an Reco model driven by long-term g

Impaired artery elasticity predicts cardiovascular morbidity and mortality- A longitudinal study in the Vara-Skövde Cohort

It is still debated whether arterial elasticity provides prognostic information for cardiovascular risk beyond blood pressure measurements in a healthy population. To investigate the association between arterial elasticity obtained by radial artery pulse wave analysis and risk for cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in men and women. In 2002–2005, 2362 individuals (men=1186, 50.2%) not taking antihypert

Evaporation of serum after long-term biobank storage : A chemical analysis of maternal serum from a large Danish pregnancy screening registry

Background Relying on freezer stored biospecimens is preferred in epidemiolocal studies exploring environmental pregnancy exposures and later offspring health. Storage duration may increase the pre-analytical variability, potentially adding measurement uncertainty. We investigated evaporation of maternal serum after long-term biobank storage using ions (sodium, Na+; chloride, Cl-) recognized for s

Integrating Syrian refugee children in Turkey : The role of Turkish language skills (A case study in Gaziantep)

This study discusses issues around the integration of Syrian refugee children into the Turkish school system by using the case study of a secondary school in the city of Gaziantep in the southeast of Turkey. Based on focus groups with teachers at the school who engage with the growing number of Syrian refugee children in their classrooms, this study highlights in particular the role of Turkish lan

Factors affecting the success of CT-guided core biopsy of musculoskeletal lesions with a 13-G needle

Objective: To determine the value of CT-guided bone core biopsy and investigate factors that affect diagnostic yield and biopsy outcome. Materials and methods: The single-centre retrospective analysis included 447 patients who had CT-guided core biopsy with a 13-G needle (Bonopty®) from January 2016 to December 2021. Histological results or ≥ 6 months of clinical and radiological follow-up served

Finding Pictures in the Sky : Machinic Visions of Cloudscapes

Within cultural and art theory, there has been an emergence of attention placed on machine vision technologies as introducing a new regime of images and ways of seeing. This paper addresses this subject in the context of environment and nature through an inquiry into machinic ways of seeing cloudscapes. Attention is placed on how the cloud form presents a challenge to the logic of machine vision t

Characteristics and Attitudinal Changes of Senior Citizens and Persons with Functional Impairments Involved in a Citizen Science Project on Housing Accessibility

Citizen Science (CS) projects targeting senior citizens and persons with functional impairments are rare, and interest among citizens to become involved in such remains uncertain. There is a lack of systematic analyses as to what distinguishes citizens’ willingness to contribute, and what such involvement could lead to in terms of acquired skills or changed attitudes. Based on a Swedish CS project

Cavity ring-down transient absorption spectroscopy (CRD-TAS) : A proof of concept via detection of coherent artifacts of thin substrates

In this work, we present cavity ring-down transient absorption spectroscopy (CRD-TAS) as a novel technique to temporally resolve transient signals of two-dimensional samples with an increased sensitivity. The successful detection of coherent artifact signals in transparent materials is hereby demonstrated as an initial proof of concept of the singular CRD-TAS method. These experimental results are

Inflammation Biomarkers in Huntington’s Disease

Neurodegenerative diseases share many features, such as inflammation. Accumulating evidence support the role of neuroinflammation in the pathogenesis and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, and inflammatory markers are suggested important tools to identify disease risk, diagnose disease, monitor disease progression or treatment response, as well as predict clinical outcomes. In Huntington’s d
