This paper considers the ways in which research projects linger beyond their ‘official’ endings, and how to deal with this. Building on conversations in human geography and related disciplines on slow research, performed endings, and the practical and socio-political complexities of data storage and analysis over time, I relate some experiences with my research on the Finnish Saimaa Ringed Seal, w
Pathogenic variants in KIAA0586/TALPID3 are associated with the ciliopathy Joubert syndrome (JS). We report individuals with KIAA0586/TALPID3 variants affected by primary and motile cilia defects leading to JS and chronic destructive airway disease. DNA variants were detected in three families by sequencing. In two unrelated families, a deep-intronic variant (KIAA0586/TALPID3:c.3990 + 3186G>A) act
Aim: To analyse the challenges faced by parents of extremely preterm infants born before 24 weeks of gestation and the potential buffering effect of perceived resources on the family's health continuum. Methods: The qualitative data were obtained from 70 parents of 70 infants born before 24 weeks of gestation, through open-ended questions in a survey. An inductive content analysis was conducted to
Raw sediment samples which are without prior lengthy laboratory preparation can be used to obtain a rough but rapid estimate of the luminescence equivalent dose, and thus of the relative age of the sediment. In this study, we tested this range-finder method on clastic sediments in NE Poland for the first time, with special focus on Pleistocene meltwater sediments generated by highly energetic glac
Nonlinear effects play a central role in photonics as they form the foundation for most of the device functionalities such as amplification and quantum state preparation and detection. Typically the nonlinear effects are weak and emerge only at high photon numbers with strong drive. Here we present an experimental study of a Josephson junction -based high-impedance resonator. We show that by takin
Introduction: Little is known of the long-term prognosis of patients with acute ischaemic stroke in the absence of standard modifiable stroke risk factors (SMoRFs). In acute coronary syndromes, patients without modifiable risk factors have a higher mortality rate. We analysed data from the Swedish Stroke Register to determine survival of patients without SMoRFs following an ischaemic stroke. Patie
InAs nanowires have been used as selectors and electrodes in a one-transistor one-resistor resistive random-access memory (RRAM) configuration for increased memory scalability. Such oxide-based memories not only show promise both in conventional memory technology but also as analog memories for neural networks. The small areas of the oxide elements, however, result in challenges for electrical cha
Background: Desmoplastic melanoma (DM) is a rare subtype, accounting for less than 5% of primary cutaneous invasive melanomas. DM often arises in chronically sun-exposed skin, in older individuals. While the incidence of cutaneous melanoma has increased globally, trends specific to DM are less documented and studies on survival outcomes for DM are inconsistent. Objectives: To study patient and tum
Metal fuels can be promising candidates as alternative energy sources and renewable energy carriers within the metal-fuel cycle. They feature high energy density, low environmental impact, and broad production and application. One challenge in metal particle combustion lies in its multi-physics complexity compared to traditional hydrocarbon fuels. This thesis intends to investigate the combustion
Denna rapport jämför två fall där Helsingborgs stad verkar för att bli mer cirkulär. Det ena är hur avfallsbolaget NSR (där staden är majoritetsägare) har utvecklat en produktionsanläggning och kompetenscentrum om biokol. Det andra är hur Stadsbyggnadskontoret, med Fastighetsförvaltningen, arbetar med att främja återbruk. Rapporten beskriver hur man i dessa två fall har skapat agendasättande relatDenna rapport jämför två fall där Helsingborgs stad verkar för att bli mer cirkulär.

This conceptual article examines the relational dynamic between the research field focusing on the far right and those critical scholars that endeavour to undertake these studies. It is theoretically anchored in the field of political science scholarship that recognises the key role played by gender in understanding both the ideological underpinnings and the workings of various far-right entities
Purpose: To describe nurses' experiences encountering children with suspected neurodevelopmental disorders in Child Health Services. Design and methods: This qualitative inductive study was conducted in Sweden. Twenty nurses were interviewed individually on a virtual platform using a semi-structured interview guide with open-ended and explorative questions. Interviews were audio recorded and trans
Background: Behavioural variant Frontotemporal Dementia (bvFTD) is an early-onset dementia characterised by early anterior cingulate (AC) neuropathological insult. The AC exhibits high morphological heterogeneity, which may be classified according to the presence of a paracingulate sulcus (PCS), a tertiary sulcus that, when present, develops during the third gestational trimester and thereafter re
Alcohol impairs motor performance, but it remains unclear precisely why this is the case. Here, we examine the effects of alcohol intoxication on conditioned eyeblink responses, a form of classical conditioning dependent on the cerebellum. In experiment 1, the conditioned responses of 18 students before and after alcohol consumption up to 1 ‰ were compared against the performance of 26 non-drinkin
The question of who China’s leftover men will marry is becoming a pressing issue for Beijing. The government’s response will shape the country’s future for decades to come.
When developing general-purpose robot software components, we often lack complete knowledge of the specific contexts in which they will be executed. This limits our ability to make predictions, including our ability to detect program bugs statically. Since running a robot is an expensive task, finding errors at runtime can prolong the debugging loop or even cause safety hazards. This paper propose
Utfallet av parlamentsvalen i Europa får troliggen större påverkan på Sverige än Trump, skriver Fredrik N G Andersson, docent i nationalekonomi vid Lunds universitet.
Coherent diffractive imaging experiments often collect incomplete datasets containing regions that lack any measurements. These regions can arise because of beamstops, gaps between detectors, or, in tomography experiments, a missing wedge of data due to a limited sample rotation range. We describe practical and effective approaches to mitigate reconstruction artifacts by bringing uniqueness back t
