The in-flow focusing method, introduced herein, enables rapid and straightforward measurements of the whole-channel acoustic energy of acoustic flow-through devices. The method is applied to assess the whole-channel acoustic energy and acoustophoretic efficiency frequency spectra of a bottom-actuated silicon-glass and a side-actuated glass chip. The input variables are the time-independent geometr
Recension av Henrik Berggren, Landet utanför 1–3: Sverige och kriget 1939–1940 (2018); Sverige och kriget 1940–1942 (2021); Sverige och kriget 1943–1945 (2023)
Bulk-wave-acoustofluidic devices provide strong acoustic fields and high device efficiency, thereby offering high-throughput capability when processing biological samples. Such devices are typically driven by lead zirconate titanate (PZT) transducers, which contain a high content of lead, inevitably resulting in environmental and biocompatibility issues. Replacing PZT with lead-free piezoelectric
Artikel i ett specialtema om SVT:s dokumentärfilmsserie Historien om Sverige.
Introduction: Proteomic analysis of injured human peripheral nerves, particularly focusing on events occurring in the proximal and distal nerve ends, remains relatively underexplored. This study aimed to investigate the molecular patterns underlying a digital nerve injury, focusing on differences in protein expression between the proximal and distal nerve ends. Methods: A total of 26 human injured
This article traces publishing patterns in the Swedish humanities between 1840 and 1880; a period characterized by a new publishing regime yet bridging two dominant publication forms, the dissertation, and the disciplinary journal. Using the prominent historian Wilhelm Erik Svedelius as an entry point, the article charts how scholars in the humanities navigated the publishing landscape in a more d
A range of charge-stabilized aqueous polyurethane (PU) dispersions comprising hard segments formed from hydrogenated methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (H12MDI) with dimethylolpropionic acid (DMPA) and ethylenediamine, and soft segments of poly(tetramethylene oxide) of different molecular weights are synthesized. Characterization of the dispersions by mass spectrometry, gel permeation chromatogr
Background: A substantial proportion of individuals with COPD have never smoked, and it is implied to be more common than previously anticipated but poorly studied. Aim: To describe the process of recruitment of never-smokers with COPD from a population-based cohort (n = 30 154). Methods: We recruited never-smokers with COPD, aged 50–75 years, from six University Hospitals, based on: 1) post bronc
The European Union has committed to achieving climate neutrality by the year 2050, with Sweden setting an even more ambitious target of reaching this milestone by 2045. A subgroup comprising 23 pioneering Swedish municipalities, collectively representing 40% of the country's population, aims to attain climate neutrality by 2030. Globally, buildings and construction sector contribute nearly 40% of
This paper analyses three governments’ institutional advisory mechanisms designed to shape and support universities and individual researchers’ decisions regarding international academic collaboration. Although ostensibly country-agnostic, increasing geopolitical tensions with China have catalyzed the creation of these new structures. Each mechanism seeks to address the complex trade-offs in inter
This explorative literature review aims to examine the content and methodologies of recent empirical studies on the aspirations of youth in situations of migration in Europe. The search yielded 30 peer-reviewed social science publications in English for the period 2010–2022, including both intra-European migrants ages 10–24 and youth with backgrounds from outside Europe. Contextual analysis was us
The existence and significance of endogenous cytosolic and nuclear mono-ADP-ribosylation has been a matter of debate. Today, evidence suggests that the human enzymes that catalyze the reaction have been rounded up. Moreover, substrate proteins and specific functions for mono-ADP-ribosyltransferases are beginning to be defined. Reader domains that specifically recognize mono-ADP-ribosylated target
a choir for people with experience of being infertility treatment .LYTTEKOR is an artistic research project for individuals with experiences of fertility treatment. We work creatively with listening, voice, and body in a confidential and caring space.Our approach is based on vocal compositions inspired by Deep Listening (a method developed by Pauline Oliveros). Through listening, we open up to greater self-acceptance, understanding of our situation, and shared ex
Researchers have envisioned and pioneered data-driven programming assistance for developers based on their interaction with the tools via multiple sensors such as eye trackers, microphones, and AI. However, these new sensors gather sensitive data from programmers, to what extent users can accept them and in what form they may work well are largely unclear. Meanwhile, developer tools such as static
Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) in infants is a common, potentially life-threatening bacterial infection, and must be managed carefully through the entire chain of care from diagnosis, choice of treatment, follow-up and risk stratification of future complications. This Swedish nationwide study of infant UTI was conducted to evaluate the current management of infant UTI, yield of investig
The development of highly specialized blood cells from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the bone marrow (BM) is dependent upon a stringently orchestrated network of stage- and lineage-restricted transcription factors (TFs). Thus, the same stem cell can give rise to various types of differentiated blood cells. One of the key regulators of B-lymphocyte development is early B-cell factor 1 (EBF1).
We investigate the use of a highly scalable intervention to help individuals achieve their physical activity goals: self-funded commitment contracts. Using a randomised experiment, we compare the effect of soft (non-incentivised) and hard (incentivised) contracts among 1629 members of a gym in Stockholm, Sweden. We find a significant positive impact of being offered a hard contract on monthly visi
A potential mechanism to explain changes in cooperativeness in the presence of risk may be opportunities for informal risk sharing. Using a novel experimental design, we show that the presence of both independent and correlated risk prevents the typical decay of cooperation in a laboratory social dilemma game. Notably, this result seems to rule out risk sharing as a possible mechanism behind the c
Background: The use of methylisothiazolinone (MI) as a preservative in cosmetic products caused an alarming increase in MI contact allergy across Europe in the 2010s. This was followed by regulations of use with a total ban on leave-on (implemented in 2017) and reduced use concentrations in rinse-off cosmetics (2018). Objective: To follow-up on the prevalence of contact allergy to MI and the relat
