Accurate triage of ovarian masses is facilitated in many centers by the guideline-endorsed, extensively validated IOTA-ADNEX risk model, yet the model still relies on manual measurements of key tumor features. We developed ADNEX-AI, a multi-task deep-learning system that automatically segments four ADNEX ultrasound predictors – lesion, locules, solid tissue, papillary projections – and outputs the

Purpose: Boys with genetic syndromes have an increased risk of undescended testes (UDT), but laparoscopic findings and outcomes after two-stage Fowler-Stephens orchiopexy (FS2) are rarely reported. This study aims to compare laparoscopic findings and results after FS2 between syndromic and non-syndromic boys. Methods: A retrospective cohort study on boys with UDT who underwent laparoscopy between

Importance: While clinical disease stages remained largely unchanged in the 2024 update of the Alzheimer disease (AD) criteria, tau-positron emission tomography (PET) was introduced as a core biomarker and its spatial extent was incorporated into the revised biological stages of the disease. It is important to consider both the clinical and the biological stages and understand their discrepancies.

Urban freight systems play an indispensable role in contemporary cities. By enabling the continuous flow of goods, they support economic activity and contribute to urban prosperity. At the same time, these activities generate substantial negative externalities, including emissions, noise, congestion and increasing pressures on urban space. As freight activities grow, their impacts intensify, under

This dissertation examines the intense presence of the encounter with a number of artworks depicting sickrooms painted by Nordic artists by the end of the nineteenth century. To understand the intense presence enhanced through the encounter with these artworks, this dissertation argues that these paintings can be understood and examined as secular devotional images. Particular attention is devoted

A search is presented for a heavy scalar (H) or pseudo-scalar (A) predicted by the two-Higgs-doublet models, where the H/A is produced in association with a top-quark pair (tt¯H/A), and with the H/A decaying into a tt¯ pair. The full LHC Run 2 proton–proton collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment is used, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139fb-1. Events are selected requiring

The ATLAS experiment has developed extensive software and distributed computing systems for Run 3 of the LHC. These systems are described in detail, including software infrastructure and workflows, distributed data and workload management, database infrastructure, and validation. The use of these systems to prepare the data for physics analysis and assess its quality are described, along with the

INTRODUCTION: Amyloid-induced tauopathy drives clinical decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Because age and sex shape tau trajectories, defining patient-centered amyloid thresholds for tauopathy onset could facilitate pre-tauopathy AD identification and aid treatment decisions and prognosis. METHODS: By including two samples (Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative [ADNI, n = 301]; and 18F-AV

In this paper, we investigate a Multi-layer Aerial system for GenAI inference at the Edge (MAGE). Therein, ground user equipments (UEs) request image synthesis services from a remote base station (BS) that leverages the Latent Diffusion Model (LDM) for image generation. Multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are deployed to serve the UEs for relaying their images and prompts to the BS. To reduce

Motivation Machine learning offers a powerful approach for building predictive models from high-dimensional molecular data. Omics technologies such as transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics quantify thousands of molecules simultaneously, providing deep insights into disease biology. Integrating multiple modalities can enhance predictive performance, as shown in histology-omics and holter-om

Epilepsy affects more than 50 million individuals worldwide, and approximately one-third of patients remain refractory to existing antiseizure medications. Advances in gene therapy and genome editing have opened new possibilities for disease-modifying interventions that directly target the molecular and circuit-level mechanisms underlying epileptogenesis. Recent progress in central nervous system

Integrating multi-modal patient data to support personalized medicine has gained a lot of interest across different health domains over the past decade. Addressing this challenge requires the development and implementation of an informed, evidence-based AI-driven decision-support system continuously maintained and updated to align with the latest clinical guidelines. A key challenge to ensure its

Separating valuable minerals from waste rock is an important step in the production of metals. This is for copper ore done through a process called flotation. A flotation series consists of tank cells in series where the minerals are collected in a froth on top of the cells. The level control of the flotation cells is important in order to be able to collect the froth. The first four flotation cel

Environmental tax measures have the potential to be great tools for achieving sustainable development goals in the EU. The different dimensions of sustainability need to be balanced in order to achieve sustainable development goals. In the EU, tax law has been focussed too much on the economic dimension, and too little on the environmental dimension, which could lead to environmental sustainabilit

The purpose of this essay is to study the potential of a carpool as a sustainable mobility solution in rural areas, by studying the usage of the carpool pilot in Brösarp, Tomelilla municipality. The essay seeks to answer the following research questions: how is the carpool being used today? Which are the barriers for using the carpool? What can be done to motivate an increased use of the carpool?

This thesis investigates how urban experimentation is governed in the new development district in Sege park in Malmö. Together with with private developers and a local NGO the municipality test and experiment with solutions for how the sharing economy can contribute to reduce the future resident’s climate impact and living costs. By using the theoretical lens of governmentality this thesis focusse

Introduction: The novel external beam therapy technique using ultra-high dose rates known as FLASH has become known for its normal tissue sparing effect. Currently in Lund, veterinary clinical trials are carried out on canine patients using electrons with ultra- high dose rates. By implementing a treatment planning system for FLASH-irradiation, the dose distribution can be visualized and the gantr
