Key questions for understanding hippocampal function in memory and navigation in humans are the type and source of visual information that reaches the human hippocampus. We measured bidirectional pairwise effective connectivity with functional magnetic resonance imaging between 360 cortical regions while 956 Human Connectome Project participants viewed scenes, faces, tools, or body parts. We devel
Despite the crucial role of various insulin analogs in achieving satisfactory glycemic control, a comprehensive understanding of their in-solution dynamic mechanisms still holds the potential to further optimize rapid insulin analogs, thus significantly improving the well-being of individuals with Type 1 Diabetes. Here, we employed hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry to decipher the mole
Naturvetenskap, teknik, ingenjörsvetenskap och matematik, på engelska ofta grupperade under akronymen STEM, är traditionellt mansdominerade områden. Särskilt inom ingenjörsvetenskap och teknologi är kvinnor fortfarande kraftigt underrepresenterade. Bristen på kvinnor inom STEM innebär utmaningar i att möta arbetsmarknadens behov, för produktkvalitet på grund av brist på olika perspektiv i designprScience, technology, engineering and mathematics, often grouped under the acronym STEM, are traditionally male dominated fields. Especially in engineering and technology, women continue to be heavily underrepresented. The lack of women in STEM poses challenges for meeting the labor market demands, for product quality due to a lack of diverse perspectives in the design process, and for gender equal
How we teach is strongly influenced by the culture we teach in, especially what (we believe) our colleagues think is good and acceptable. Understanding the reluctance to changes in teaching practice, including fear of disapproval from colleagues and students, investigating and reappraising those fears, and starting to talk about alternative interpretations is a first step towards overcoming the in
A novel concept of cold neutron source employing chessboard or staircase assemblies of high-aspect-ratio rectangular para-hydrogen moderators with well-developed and practically fully illuminated surfaces of the individual moderators is proposed. An analytic approach for calculating the brightness of para-hydrogen moderators is introduced. Because the brightness gain originates from a near-surface
Recent studies provide insights about local agency in regional development. While acknowledging non-local actors and drivers, these studies have not systematically discussed the link between extra-regional relations and local agency. This paper first discusses three key arguments in the literature on extra-regional relations covering context-specific dependencies, strategic coupling and open innov
Separating how surface and subsurface species affect catalytic function is a challenging task in heterogeneous catalysis, particularly when deposition and segregation take place at reaction conditions. Here, we report on an operando approach to establish surface/subsurface/function correlations. Using temperature modulations we oscillate carbon deposition and segregation over a Pd catalyst. Cataly
BACKGROUNDDistinguishing wide complex tachycardia (WCT) as ventricular tachycardia (VT) or supraventricular WCT (SWCT) is critical yet challenging. Manual ECG algorithms require substantial expertise and are inconsistently applied, and contemporary computerized ECG interpretation (CEI) systems often return only a generic “wide complex tachycardia” label. Novel machine learning–based ECG models (So
Background: Available fluid biomarkers, neuroimaging techniques, and clinical assessments may enhance prediction of conversion to secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS). Objectives: : To identify robust real-world predictors of MS progression in the literature. Methods: : A systematic review was conducted in EMBASE. A total of 20,338 MS patients from 64 eligible studies were included. A p
Improving energy efficiency in agriculture is key to reducing environmental impact. Lighting in animal buildings is one of the most cost‐effective energy saving measures. Lighting retrofit offers a short payback period, enhances animal welfare and production, and aligns with regulations for phasing out fluorescent lighting. The purpose of this study was to investigate the energy-saving potential o
The first generation of ELT instruments includes an optical-infrared high resolution spectrograph, indicated as ELT-HIRES and recently christened ANDES (ArmazoNes high Dispersion Echelle Spectrograph).ANDES consists of three fibre-fed spectrographs ([U]BV, RIZ, YJH) providing a spectral resolution of ∼100,000 with a minimum simultaneous wavelength coverage of 0.4-1.8 µm with the goal of extending
We aimed to investigate the association between psychotropic drug use (proxy for psychological health) and Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) type 1 and type 2 in upper and lower limbs. We also assessed the impact of demographic and socioeconomic factors. From a national record linkage database [4,706,821 individuals (25–64 years); CRPS type 1 = 809; type 2 = 225], prevalence ratios (PR), absol
Developing a robust decision analysis framework for selecting appropriate building envelope assemblies is essential to ensure moisture safety, energy efficiency, and sustainability. Recently, Bayat Pour et al. introduced the inutility decision analysis (IDA) method, which integrates moisture safety criteria with sustainability considerations, including economic and environmental aspects. This stud
The recognition of amine groups by ninhydrin, along with a simple mathematical algorithm, showed that di- and tripeptides derived from dietary protein are the major end products of protein digestion entering the blood postprandially. There are thousands of oligopeptides appearing in the gut during protein digestion. However, the presented study on a pig model clearly shows that peptides longer tha
We study the problems of computing the Voronoi diagram and a triangulation of a set of n2 points with O(logn)-bit coordinates in the Euclidean plane in a substantially sublinear in n number of rounds in the congested clique model with n nodes. First, we observe that if the points are uniformly at random distributed in a unit square then their Voronoi diagram within the square can be computed in O
Kunskap om markens uppbyggnad är viktig både för konstruktions och prospekteringsändamål. Geofysiska undersökningsmetoder kan användas för att skapa en överblick att basera vidare undersökningar på. I den här studien används likströms resistivitet och inducerad polarisation, IP. Datan är inverterad med en Cole-Cole modell i programmet ÅrhusInv och använd för att karakterisera berggrunden vid ÖnnesFor both construction and exploration purposes, knowledge of the subsurface is important. Geophysical exploration methods can be used to acquire an overview of an area on which further investigations can be based. In this study direct current resistivity and induced polarization data, inverted with a Cole-Cole model in program AarhusInv, are used to characterize the bedrock at Önneslöv in Scania,
The purpose of this thesis is to determine how electric vehicle trucks can meet the needs of customers in the urban building and construction sector. This sector contributes significantly to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and also creates noise and other disturbances in urban environments. There are multiple benefits that come with electric trucks, which can address these issues if they are used
