In an era of global migration, where public discourse often assumes that migrants lack exposure to and command of local majority language(s), it is a crucial research task to understand how migrants learn and use new languages in their everyday lives. This study provides empirical evidence about the quantity and nature of everyday language exposure and use (LEU) among migrants in Sweden. Using the

Background: Head and neck cancer patients often experience muscle wasting due to malnutrition and the hypermetabolism of cancer. For those undergoing total laryngectomy (TL), there is the potential for peri-operative complications. Sarcopenia has gained recognition as a prognostic factor in head and neck cancer. However, there is marked variability in the ways sarcopenia is defined and poor charac

Accountability is central for accelerating progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It means to hold powerful actors answerable for how they turn agreements into action. Governments, who hold the main responsibility for SDG implementation, can in the ideal case be held accountable by voters, parliaments, civil society, and the media, for how they address the SDGs. At th

The entire service sector has acknowledged the importance of employee creativity. However, the underlying mechanism due to which employees are engaged in creativity has been relatively unexplored. Moreover, where the banking service sector in advanced countries has realized the potential role of employee creativity for a bank's success, the same was not fully realized in the context of a developin

Greater central artery stiffness is observed in people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Elevated blood pressure (BP) and altered arterial wall structure/composition in T2DM are generally considered as main drivers for this alteration. However, because conventional arterial stiffness measures are BP-dependent and as such an influence of BP remains in a measure, it is unclear if greater central artery s

Time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA) estimation from GCC-PHAT is not always as straight forward as finding the maximum peak. This work views the GCC output as an image, with time on the vertical axis and TDOA horizontally, to explore if image-to-image machine learning methods can make a more robust filter. The Structure from Sound Database provides audio recorded with a distributed microphone setup a

Objectives: In India, cervical cancer is the most common cancer among women and makes up for up to 29% of all registered cancer in females. Cancer-related pain is one of the major distressing symptoms for all cancer patients. Pain is characterised as somatic or neuropathic, and the total pain experience is often mixed. Conventional opioids are the backbone of analgesic treatment but are most often

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate various aspects of treatment for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in Sweden over the past 14 years, nationally and at a hospital level. Methods: Data on screening and treatment for ROP in infants born in Sweden from 2008 to 2021 were extracted from the national ROP register, SWEDROP. During this period, Swedish screening guidelines were reduced from gestati

Climate change is rapidly altering the Arctic environment. Although long-term environmental observations have been made at a few locations in the Arctic, the incomplete coverage from ground stations is a main limitation to observations in these remote areas. Here we present a wind and sun powered multi-purpose mobile observatory (ARC-MO) that enables near real time measurements of air, ice, land,

Background: Post-covid syndrome is an emerging condition involving a wide range of symptoms, including high rates of poor mental health. The diagnostic relevance and clinical severity of these symptoms are largely unknown, and evidence for treatment of post-covid mental health symptoms is lacking. This protocol describes a pilot randomized clinical trial, primarily aiming to assess feasibility, pa

Background: This study aimed to evaluate whether an increasing grade of obesity is associated with inferior outcomes after lumbar disc herniation (LDH) surgery. Methods: We retrieved data from the Swedish register for spine surgery regarding patients aged 20–64 who underwent LDH surgery from 2006–2016 and had preoperative and one-year postoperative data. A total of 4156 patients were normal weight

Low-dimensional topological states have transformed our understanding of charge transportation through quantum materials. Many relevant observations have been connected to bismuth (Bi) containing materials or ultrathin Bi films. Here, we studied sub-monolayer amounts of Bi deposition on the In-terminated InSb(111)A surface using various complementary surface science techniques. Bi deposition at el

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: The aim of this work was to explore associations between type 1 diabetes progression from stages 1 or 2 to stage 3 and interacting ligand-receptor complexes of HLA class I (HLA-I) and KIR gene products.METHODS: Applying next-generation sequencing technology to genotype HLA-I genes (HLA-A, -B, -C) and KIR genes (KIR2DL1, KIR2DL2, KIR2DL3, KIR2DL4, KIR2DL5, KIR2DS1, KIR2DS2, KIR2DS3

Investigating metal-semiconductor interfaces is crucial for enabling ultra-thin film growth and tuning the electronic properties. Here we have studied the atomic mechanism of Bi incorporation into the surface of InSb, the III-V semiconductor with the largest spin-orbit coupling, using surface science techniques and theoretical modeling. Bi deposition onto Sb-terminated InSb(111) surfaces at elevat
