Cardiovascular prevention guidelines are based on robust evidence, yet their implementation in primary healthcare remains inconsistent due to systemic barriers, workload pressures and insufficiently adapted tools. The 2025 European consensus emphasizes the need for multidisciplinary teamwork, digital innovation and equity-focused strategies to strengthen prevention across diverse healthcare system
Background: Nocturnal hypoxemia commonly affects people with pulmonary fibrosis (PF). Research Question: What are the current practices for assessment of sleep and nocturnal hypoxemia in PF, and what are the research priorities and outcome measures of importance for nocturnal oxygen therapy (NOT)? Study Design and Methods: People with PF and health care professionals (HCPs) with expertise in PF, s
This exposition takes as its departure the systemic inertia identified within Western Higher Music Education (HME), where education is driven by skill acquisition in a master–pupil format. Such approaches may hinder the growth of adaptable and reflective musicians. We propose an alternative: student-centred learning inspired by artistic research methods. To explicate this, we draw on findings thro

Artificial intelligence (AI) is set to transform the care of women with cancer. From early detection via digital phenotyping to diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up, innovative AI applications are rapidly emerging across the cancer care continuum. AI-assisted mammographic screening for breast cancer has been clinically translated, and AI-based contouring in radiotherapy is streamlining treatment pl
Rates of molecular, phenotypic, and lineage diversification typically scale negatively with time interval of measurement, raising longstanding questions about time-dependency of evolutionary processes. These patterns and their potential meaning have recently re-entered evolutionary discussions. In this Perspective, we revisit the general challenges in interpreting rate–time relationships. Much app
BACKGROUND: A growing body of evidence links microRNAs (miRNAs) to major depressive disorder (MDD). However, the causal nature of these associations remains unclear.OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate the potential causal association between miRNAs and MDD by combining Mendelian Randomization (MR) analyses and experimental validation.METHODS: Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) signific

Importance Even within individuals who are amyloid positive, clinical symptoms can be impacted by Alzheimer pathology, other pathologic proteins, and cognitive reserve or resilience. Understanding how each of these factors contributes to a patient’s clinical presentation is crucial for prognosis and treatment decisions in the era of disease-modifying therapies. Objective To evaluate tau-clinical m
Building resilient and sustainable energy systems is a critical challenge for disaster-prone regions in the Global South. This study investigates the energy management of a networked microgrid (NMG) system on Lombok Island, Indonesia, a region frequently exposed to natural disasters (NDs) and characterized by vulnerable grid infrastructure. A multi-objective optimization framework is developed to
Sustainability has received increasing attention in recent years, particularly surrounding concerns of poverty in the Global South, the climate emergency, the loss of biodiversity, and the COVID-19 pandemic. Competition and public authorities are more frequently encountering sustainability questions, while states are more generally called upon to foster sustainability by the UN Resolution 70/1. Ag
It remains unclear how transformative innovation policies can be implemented across various regional contexts. Through policy review, interviews and focus group interviews with key actors, this paper investigates industrial regions’ design and implementation of transformative innovation policies in three Nordic countries. We find that the characteristics of the regional innovation system, unique t
Gastrointestinal (GI) interventional endoscopy has evolved into a cornerstone of modern gastroenterology, offering minimally invasive solutions for complex conditions. However, these procedures are not without risk, particularly with respect to post-procedural infections. While rare, such infections can have significant clinical consequences and are increasingly recognized as a public health conce
A biorefinery can operate with various plant materials as feed stock, (in contrast to fossil-based oil refineries). It has been defined by the International Energy Agency, Task 42, as “the sustainable processing of biomass into a spectrum of marketable bio-based products (chemicals, materials) and bioenergy (biofuels, power, heat)”. One of the challenges in operating large-scale facilities is that
Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination may eventually eradicate oncogenic vaccine-targeted HPVs but only with a strategy that also protects unvaccinated individuals. We compared the impact of gender-neutral and girls-only vaccination strategies on the indirect and direct protection of unvaccinated and vaccinated young women against HPV16/18 infection using HPV16/18 seropositivity and PCR positivit
Laila Lalami’s novel The Moor’s Account reclaims the erased historical voice of the Moorish slave Estebanico, one of the first Arab Africans on the American continent in the 1500s. While Lalami explicitly positions her novel as a postcolonial revision of Cabeza de Vaca’s colonial report on the fate of Estebanico, this essay argues that a significant part of the novel’s literary resistance to Arab
This article presents a theoretical framework for deriving simple analytical expressions for spurs resulting from second and third order nonlinearities in fractional-N phase locked loops (PLL). Furthermore, a previously proposed linearization technique where several sigma-delta modulators (SDMs) operate in parallel with relative time offsets between them, is further analyzed using the periodic non
PurposeWelfare technology (WT) intends to promote engagement in everyday activities and the well-being of older adults at risk of developing or already having impairments. However, its effectiveness depends on how older adults experience and interact with WT. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between various forms of WT user experience (perceived usability, perceived control,
