Translating from monosemiotic to polysemiotic narratives : A study of Finnish speech and gestures
Human communication can be either monosemiotic or polysemiotic, depending on whether it combines ensembles of representations from one or more semiotic systems such as language, gesture and depiction. Each semiotic system has its unique storytelling potentials, which makes intersemiotic translation from one system to another challenging. We investigated the influence of the source semiotic system,

On the colloidal and molecular aspects of peptide self-assembly
Peptide self-assembly is a spontaneous process, ubiquitous in nature for the creation of highly ordered and complex biological structures, making it a sought after technique in the development of novel biocompatible materials. The process is also strongly associated with various neurodegenerative diseases in the formation of amyloid plaques in diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, where fu

Enhanced functional recovery by levodopa is associated with decreased levels of synaptogyrin following stroke in aged mice
Levodopa is a precursor to dopamine that has been shown to improve functional recovery following stroke partly achieved through mechanisms of brain plasticity. This study investigates if dopamine might affect plasticity by having a direct effect on synaptic plasticity through alterations in neurotransmitter release and re-uptake. Synaptogyrin is a synaptic vesicle protein that has been suggested t
Functional characterization of odorant receptors from the moth Eriocrania semipurpurella : A comparison of results in the Xenopus oocyte and HEK cell systems
The Xenopus oocyte and the Human Embryonic Kidney (HEK) 293 cell expression systems are frequently used for functional characterization (deorphanization) of insect odorant receptors (ORs). However, the inherent characteristics of these heterologous systems differ in several aspects, which raises the question of whether the two systems provide comparable results, and how well the results correspond
Perceived daylight conditions in multi-family apartment blocks – Instrument validation and correlation with room geometry
This article investigates the relation between subjective evaluations and objective measurements of daylighting in multi-family residential buildings. More specifically, the suitability of an observer-based environmental assessment (OBEA) instrument to assess indoor daylight conditions was tested in a field study conducted in six typical multi-family apartment buildings in the central and metropol
Direct comparisons of effectiveness and safety of treatment with Apixaban, Dabigatran and rivaroxaban in atrial fibrillation
Introduction: Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have been proven non-inferior or superior to warfarin in preventing stroke and systemic embolism, with a lower risk of major hemorrhage, in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). We sought to investigate whether effectiveness and safety differs among apixaban, rivaroxaban and dabigatran. Materials and methods: Patients with newly ini
Early prenatal exposure to suspected endocrine disruptor mixtures is associated with lower IQ at age seven
Background: Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are xenobiotics with the ability to interfere with hormone action, even at low levels. Prior environmental epidemiology studies link numerous suspected EDCs, including phthalates and bisphenol A (BPA), to adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes. However, results for some chemicals were inconsistent and most assessed one chemical at a time. Objectives:
Sonic Argumentation I
With this special issue Seismograf introduce you to ten new audio papers developed for the journal. The 10 audio papers are published in two volumes: The first, #22 Sonic Argumentation I, gathers scholars from artistic research in music, and the second, #23 Sonic Argumentation II, presents papers by scholars from ethnography, literature and sound studies.
Hippocampal [18F]flortaucipir BPND corrected for possible spill-in of the choroid plexus retains strong clinico-pathological relationships
Background: Off-target [18F]flortaucipir (tau) PET binding in the choroid plexus causes spill-in into the nearby hippocampus, which may influence the correlation between [18F]flortaucipir binding and measures of cognition. Previously, we showed that partial volume correction (combination of Van Cittert iterative deconvolution and HYPR denoising; PVC HDH) and manually eroding the hippocampus result

Megahertz x-ray microscopy at x-ray free-electron laser and synchrotron sources
Modern emerging technologies, such as additive manufacturing, bioprinting, and new material production, require novel metrology tools to probe fundamental high-speed dynamics happening in such systems. Here we demonstrate the application of the megahertz (MHz) European X-ray Free-Electron Laser (EuXFEL) to image the fast stochastic processes induced by a laser on water-filled capillaries with micr
Evaluation of serial crystallographic structure determination within megahertz pulse trains
The new European X-ray Free-Electron Laser (European XFEL) is the first X-ray free-electron laser capable of delivering intense X-ray pulses with a megahertz interpulse spacing in a wavelength range suitable for atomic resolution structure determination. An outstanding but crucial question is whether the use of a pulse repetition rate nearly four orders of magnitude higher than previously possible
Fyra missförstånd om överskottsmålet
Vi bör hålla fast vid dagens överskottsmål ett tag till. Först när vi kommit ned till 25 procents offentlig skuld kan vi våga överge överskottsmålet, skriver ekonomerna Fredrik N G Andersson och Lars Jonung, Lunds universitet.
Online Learning and Placement Algorithms for Efficient Delivery of User Generated Contents in Telco-CDNs
User generated content (UGC) makes up a significant portion of Internet traffic. As opposed to other content, UGC has so far been left outside over-the-top providing network operators content distribution networks (telco-CDN) due to the difficulty in determining optimised placement of such content. The side effect of this is that UGC content is not placed close to end users and therefore occupy un
