Denna forskningsrapport inom ramen för ett MSB uppdrag identifierar och kartlägger relevanta datamängder för att bedöma tvärsektoriella sårbarheter för samhällsviktiga verksamheter och kritiska infrastrukturer på nationell svensk nivå. Totalt identifierades 108 datamängder, varav 49 bedöms vara relevanta för analyser på nationell nivå, 54 på regional nivå och 37 på lokal nivå. Identifierad och samThis commissioned research report identifies and maps out relevant data sets to assess cross-sectoral vulnerabilities of vital societal functions and critical infrastructures at a Swedish national level. In total 108 data sets were identified, of which 49 are deemed to be relevant for analyses at the national level, 54 at the regional level and 37 at the local level. Although of high usefulness fo

Inflammatory responses to acute stimuli are proposed to regulate sleep, but the relationship between chronic inflammation and habitual sleep duration is elusive. Here, we study this relation using genetically predicted level of chronic inflammation, indexed by CRP and IL6 signaling, and self-reported sleep duration. By Mendelian randomization analysis, we show that elevated CRP level within <10 mg

The most prevailing hypothesis regarding mechanisms behind specific language impairment today is the hypothesis of general limitations of processing capacity. Such an hypothesis can hardly be tested by available language assessment tools, especially not by instruments in use for clinical assessment of the lexical-semantic domain in children. Reduced naming speed is by some researchers considered a

Hirshfeld atom refinement (HAR) provides a more realistic interpretation of crystallographic data than the standard independent atom model (IAM) by using aspherical atomic form factors derived from quantum mechanical (QM) calculations. With this aspherical description, it is possible to obtain improved atomic positions, atomic displacement parameters and correct bond lengths even for hydrogen atom

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Reproductive-aged women are at an increased risk of developing iron deficiency (ID). We aimed to develop a non-invasive screening tool to identify ID in women and assess the acceptability of screening.STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: We screened women (age 18-49 years) in the community of Western Australia.PRIMARY OUTCOME: acceptability of screening, assessed by the feasibility

Context. Despite the ever-increasing number of known exoplanets, no uncontested detections have been made of their satellites, known as exomoons. Aims. The quest to find exomoons is at the forefront of exoplanetary sciences. Certain space-born instruments are thought to be suitable for this purpose. We show the progress made with the CHaracterising ExOPlanets Satellite (CHEOPS) in this field using

Co-pathology is a common feature of neurodegenerative diseases that complicates diagnosis, treatment and clinical management. However, sensitive, specific and scalable biomarkers for in vivo pathological diagnosis are not available for most neurodegenerative neuropathologies. Here, we present ProtAIDe-Dx, a deep joint-learning model trained on 17,170 patients and controls that uses plasma proteomi

Building materials account for a high percentage of the non-land cost of self-help housing. Few studies, however, have examined the use of building materials by self-help builders and the practicalities of producing and distributing the materials in an alternative manner. This paper discusses the nature of construction by self-help in the intermediate-sized Colombian city of Pereira, focusing in p

The current framing of AI-driven technologies situates them as solutions to a looming care crisis. However, this overlooks informal caregivers' key role to current State budgetary deficits impacting healthcare services happening in Europe. As States increasingly rely on informal caregivers to provide care before the necessary involvement of healthcare services, there is already well-established re

The potential to source thermal energy from buried infrastructure such as tunnels and metro stations may offer significant potential to reduce the carbon dioxide emissions of heating and cooling, and reduce the costs associated with dedicated drilling for traditional ground-sourced systems. However, this remains a niche approach with few commercial schemes globally, partly due to high initial cost

This article is based on anthropological fieldwork undertaken at two elite universities in Beijing. It addresses the paradoxical situation of the many instances of suicide among Chinese elite university students in Beijing, which constitute a public secret. The pressure of education weighs heavily on the shoulders of China’s only child in each family, known as the generation of little emperors and

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a well-established, evidence-based treatment for common mental disorders such as depression, anxiety disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). However, treatment outcomes vary widely, and a substantial proportion of patients do not achieve sufficient improvement. Robust predictors of individual differences in symptom change are currently lacking. Gen

In the transition to a circular economy there is a need to advance the understanding of how consumer acceptance of circular product-service systems (PSS) can be fostered, since the lack thereof inhibits their adoption and diffusion. This study therefore aims to enhance the understanding of circular PSS acceptance by making two main contributions. First, it proposes a framework that provides a stru

Refugees drown, are beaten, and are pushed back at the borders of the states of the Global North. Moral outrage is understandable in the face of such treatment. But does it constitute a good political theory? Can morality supply us with good normative arguments for a political world? In this article, I argue that they cannot. Drawing on political realism, I show why moral arguments for admitting r

For the Inner Tracking System 3 (ITS3) upgrade, the ALICE experiment at CERN requires monolithic active pixel sensors of dimensions up to 97 mm×266 mm, occupying a large fraction of a 300 mm wafer. To manufacture such a wafer-scale device, larger than the single design reticle size, stitching is employed. The MOnolithic Stitched Sensor (MOSS) is a prototype silicon pixel sensor of 14 mm×259 mm siz
