Denna studie redovisar resultaten av en universitetskurs som syftar till att utforska och förbättra samarbetet inom vården med både canceröverlevare, anhöriga och vårdpersonal som studenter.Centralt i kursen var förståelsen för och att röra sig mellan varandras perspektiv. Genom att arbeta inom ramar inspirerade av problembaserat lärande (PBL), skapade små grupper bestående av minst en canceröverlThis study reports the results of a university course aimed at exploring and improving cooperation in healthcare with both cancer survivors, loved ones and healthcare professionals as students.Central to the course was the understanding of and moving between each other's perspectives. Operating within a framework inspired by problem-based learning (PBL), small groups consisting of at least one can

BACKGROUND: LINE-1 (L1) retrotransposons are a notable endogenous source of mutagenesis in mammals. Notably, cancer cells can support unusual L1 retrotransposition and L1-associated sequence rearrangement mechanisms following DNA damage. Recent reports suggest that L1 is mobile in epithelial tumours and neural cells but, paradoxically, not in brain cancers.RESULTS: Here, using retrotransposon capt

Background: Several factors and patient characteristics influence the risk of surgical wound dehiscence and incisional hernia after midline laparotomy. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether a specified, or not specified, suture quota in the operative report affects the incidence of surgical wound complications and to describe the previously known risk factors for these complications

Long-term screening with serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and systematic prostate biopsies can reduce prostate cancer mortality but leads to unacceptable overdiagnosis. Over the past decade, diagnostic methods have improved and the indolent nature of low-grade prostate cancer has been established. These advances now enable more selective detection of potentially lethal prostate cancer. This n

The Ezrin/Radixin/Moesin (ERM) family of proteins act as cross-linkers between the plasma membrane and the actin cytoskeleton. This mechanism plays an essential role in processes related to membrane remodeling and organization, such as cell polarization, morphogenesis and adhesion, as well as in membrane protein trafficking and signaling pathways. For several human aquaporin (AQP) isoforms, an int

This technical report gives an overview of our submission to task 3 of the DCASE 2024 challenge. We present a sound event localization and detection (SELD) system using input features based on trainable neural generalized cross-correlations with phase transform (NGCC-PHAT). With these features together with spectrograms as input to a Transformer-based network, we achieve significant improvements o

There is a lack of studies aiming to assess cellular a disintegrin and metalloproteinase-17 (ADAM-17) activity in COVID-19 patients and the eventual associations with the shedding of membrane-bound angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (mACE2). In addition, studies that investigate the relationship between ACE2 and ADAM-17 gene expressions in organs infected by SARS-CoV-2 are lacking. We used data from

Industry 4.0 represents the foundation of the fourth industrial revolution, characterised by the integration of innovative technology into the manufacturing process. This integration enhances automation, diagnostics, data analysis, and autonomous decision-making through the networking of equipment and machinery. However, the increased reliance on technology raises concerns about the implementation

The first search for nonresonant Bc+→π+μ+μ- decays is reported. The analysis uses proton–proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector between 2011 and 2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9fb-1. No evidence for an excess of signal events over background is observed and an upper limit is set on the branching fraction ratio B(Bc+→π+μ+μ-)/B(Bc+→J/ψπ+)

We are now seeing the development of a new generation of synchrotron radiation sources, the seeded, short-wavelength Free Electron Lasers (FELs), which are capable of driving the radiation to even higher intensities, and with new capabilities such as longitudinal coherence and ultra-short pulses. The Workshop on High-harmonic Seeding for Present and Future Short Wavelength Free-Electron Lasers, ho

Background: The aim was to investigate the noise and bias properties of quantitative 177Lu-SPECT with respect to the number of projection angles, and the number of subsets and iterations in the OS-EM reconstruction, for different total acquisition times. Methods: Experimental SPECT acquisition of six spheres in a NEMA body phantom filled with 177Lu was performed, using medium-energy collimators an

We present a synchronized multisensory dataset for accurate and robust indoor localization: the Lund University Vision, Radio, and Audio (LuViRA) Dataset. The dataset includes color images, corresponding depth maps, inertial measurement unit (IMU) readings, channel response between a 5G massive multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) testbed and user equipment, audio recorded by 12 microphones,

Objectives: To report the long-term outcomes from a longitudinal psychosocial study that forms part of the ‘Identification of Men with a genetic predisposition to ProstAte Cancer: Targeted Screening in men at higher genetic risk and controls’ (IMPACT) study. The IMPACT study is a multi-national study of targeted prostate cancer (PrCa) screening in individuals with a known germline pathogenic varia

This chapter examines the evolving landscape of craft and its implications for market exchanges, focusing on the embedded relationships between craft producers and consumers. Craft, characterized as an ideology of work resisting the dominance of industrialization and mass production, has experienced several waves of revival throughout history. While contemporary craft hints at alternative social a

Background: Altered metabolism after liver surgery adds complexity topostoperative pain management. Opioids administered via intravenousPatient Controlled Analgesia (PCA) is one of the main alternatives forinitial pain management. Paracetamol is considered potentially dangerousafter liver surgery but used selectively. This study evaluates whether thereis a difference in patient outcome after hepat

Rapid and cost-effective retrieval of endogenous DNA from ancient specimens remains a limiting factor in palaeogenomic research. Many methods have been developed to increase ancient DNA yield, but modifications to existing protocols are often based on personal experience rather than systematic testing. Here, we present a new silica column-based extraction protocol, where optimizations were tested

Monitoring the spatial distribution and trends in surface greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes, as well as flux attribution to natural and anthropogenic processes, is essential to track progress under the Paris Agreement and to inform its global stocktake. This study updates earlier syntheses (Petrescu et al., 2020, 2021, 2023), provides a consolidated synthesis of CH4 emissions using bottom-up (BU) and to

This Regional Outlook focuses on the obstacles of delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza and the challenges of rebuilding and reconstructing the area after the war.
