The illicit trafficking of cultural heritage represents a significant global challenge, exacerbated by digital technologies that facilitate unauthorised trade while offering new protection opportunities. The ANCHISE project addresses these challenges through a suite of six innovative, complementary tools designed to enhance the detection, prevention, and investigation of cultural property traffick
Background Aortic valve calcification (AVC) is a disease process driven by inflammation and lipid infiltration, serving as a precursor to aortic stenosis. While male sex has been implicated as a risk factor for AVC, sex-specific differences, particularly among younger individuals in the general population, are not well characterised. Methods The Swedish CArdioPulmonary BioImage Study was used, com
Detection of toxic hexavalent chromium in soil, groundwater, industrial effluent, etc., is of significant interest. We demonstrate the electrochemical detection of Cr(VI) using a surface-engineered mesoporous carbon-based material. The mesoporous carbon-based material is obtained by the controlled pyrolysis of a homogenous mixture of Fe and Co complexes of hydrolyzed collagen. The as-synthesized m
John Maynard Keynes was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in the 1920s for writing “The Economic Consequences of the Peace”. Yet, despite being highly ranked by the advisor of the Nobel Committee and placed on the shortlist, he did not win. This column brings out previously unused archival material from the Nobel Committee in Oslo to explore why. The Committee tended to withhold the Prize when c
Bifunctional DNA glycosylases employ an active site lysine or the N-terminus to form a Schiff base with an abasic (AP) site base excision repair intermediate. For 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1), cleaving this reversible structure is the rate-determining step in the initiation of 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) repair in DNA. Evolution has led OGG1 to use a product-assisted catalysis approach, where t
With this audio paper, our aim is to explore the connection between sound and democracy. Recognizing the multifaceted nature of this field, we approach it through the notion of care and an empirical analysis of the democratic implications of trying to regulate sound in public spaces. We examine ISO standards as one example of the many attempts to control sound in both public and private spaces. St

Interest in high spatial resolution boron analyses from a geochemical perspective is related to the recognition of boron as an important tracer of chemical recycling in the Earth, due to the high solubility of boron in aqueous fluids and silicate melts. Although boron is not a nominal component in common silicates they may still contain significant B-concentrations and hence constitute important b
Objective. This study considers the error distributions for time-integrated activity (TIA) of single-time-point (STP) methods for patient-specific dosimetry in radionuclide therapy. Approach. The general case with the same pharmaceutical labelled with different radionuclides for imaging and therapy are considered for a mono-exponential time-activity curve. Two methods for STP dosimetry, both based
During the last 100 years, musculoskeletal radiology has developed from bone-only radiography performed by everyone to a dedicated subspecialty, still secure in its origins in radiography but having expanded into all modalities of imaging. Like other subspecialties in radiology, it has become heavily dependent on cross-sectional and functional imaging, and musculoskeletal interventions play an imp
Blood biomarkers have emerged as accessible, cost-effective, and highly promising tools for advancing the diagnostics of Alzheimer's disease. However, transitioning from cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers to blood biomarkers—eg, to verify amyloid β pathology—requires careful consideration. This Series paper highlights the main challenges in the implementation of blood biomarkers for Alzheimer's diseas
Background & objectives: Endoscopy is the current gold standard for evaluation of disease activity in ulcerative colitis. The Mayo Endoscopic Subscore (MES) is commonly used for quantifying disease activity, but it has several weaknesses. Numerous new endoscopic indices have been developed but none of these have been widely implemented, likely due to limited feasibility. The primary objective
This case study investigates the involvement of private military companies (PMCs) in two African conflicts. Nigeria and Mozambique hired PMCs in 2014 and 2019 respectively to combat internal insurgencies. The paper aims to answer why these countries hired PMCs and if the PMCs were successful in combating the insurgencies. For the first question, the intensity of the insurgency and the state of the
The pressing issue of sustainability necessitates a broader collaboration span across all fields, such as finance and communication. Investments hold substantial power in the current sustainability reform, and it is therefore crucial that they not only meet the escalating demands of society but also actively contribute to forging a better future. The financial industry continues to grapple with ne
MAX IV and SOLARIS are two synchrotron light sources located in Lund and in Krakow, respectively. A stripline is a standard multi-purpose component that is used in many accelerators and consists of one or multiple electrodes. The currents that are induced by the Lorentz contracted fields of the electron beam at the electrodes can be used for beam diagnostics, or one can excite the electrodes in or
The objective of this study was to investigate prospective fathers' preferences for caesarean section and associated factors. Data were collected by means of a questionnaire given in mid-pregnancy to 1105 fathers-to-be in northern Sweden. In total, 6.4% of fathers preferred a caesarean section. The factors associated with a preference for caesarean section were a wish to plan the date of the baby'
Background: Quality of supervision is a major predictor for successful PhD projects. A survey showed that almost all PhD students in the Health Sciences in Denmark indicated that good supervision was important for the completion of their PhD study. Interestingly, approximately half of the students who withdrew from their program had experienced insufficient supervision. This led the Research Educa
The purpose of this thesis is to study how human mobility in the context of climate and environmental change is governed at a regional level in Southeast Asia, with the regional intergovernmental organisation ASEAN, as a case study. Through a policy review of ASEAN policies on climate, migration, disaster risk reduction and development this study finds that the climate-environment-mobility nexus i
