This thesis focuses on the presence and significance of silence in the poetic work The Psalms of Struggle and Liberation (1964), by the Nicaraguan liberation theologian Ernesto Cardenal, in which the biblical psaltery constitutes the base for a contextual interpretation. This study aims to prove the hypothesis that the white spaces in the psalms, created by the application of free verse, are possi
Objective: To investigate the dynamic changes of soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase−1 (sFlt−1), placental growth factor (PlGF) and their ratio in maternal plasma, from preeclampsia diagnosis to postpartum, evaluating its clinical utility. Methods: Single-center prospective longitudinal cohort study with repeated sample collection in women with established preeclampsia (PE). Seventy-five (n = 75) wom
Preconception health status, especially of women, but also of men, is known to influence pregnancy outcomes. Despite knowledge of the growing importance of preconception health, numerous challenges remain for conducting research in this population and delivering appropriate clinical care. The 2023 Global Pregnancy Collaboration annual workshop focused on exploring preconception health as it relate
Humanitarian aid has long been characterized as a top-down, centrally driven enterprise. Recently, this has begun to change through the broad concept of localization, which commonly describes the empowerment of national and local actors. This chapter showcases the range of localization views within humanitarian aid, focusing on terminology, various definitions and three main interpretations. It al
A new breed of prophets-intermediaries and pastoral bros of an AI industry with metaphysical aspirations-has surfaced on the global stage during troubled times. They make great promises, offer predictions and warnings, and stake out directions for humanity. This article argues that they do so by invoking the implicit collective memory of the apocalyptic imaginary known from ancient Jewish apocalyp

Introduction: Assessing suicide risk in clinical settings is challenging, as conventional self-report scales have limited predictive validity. The Death Implicit Association Test (D-IAT) was developed to explore implicit associations related to death and the self-concept. However, it omits the emotional association with death that may be crucial in suicide risk assessment. This cross-sectional stu
The Value of Information from Bayesian decision theory can be used to drive decisions within the development of new technologies aiding research screening, technology characteristics, and employment optimization. The selection of a specific application of technology leads to the definition of the decision scenario within the Value of Information framework. Technological performance characteristics
We investigate the young stellar cluster population of M51 and how it is affected by encounters with giant molecular clouds (GMCs). We combine a galactic model with N-body simulations of 5000 unique clusters in the mass range [600-24000] M⊙. We simulate each cluster twice: with (CR) and without (CN) tidal perturbations from the GMCs. We are able to reproduce the majority of the observed mass- and
Stage- and lineage-specific gene expression patterns are controlled by a complex interplay between transcription factors, the epigenetic landscape, and the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the DNA. The 3D structure allows for the formation of DNA loops that juxtaposition distal regulatory elements to the promoters, allowing for tight control of gene expression. Developing a tool to facilitate t
Purpose: This systematic literature review aims to develop a comprehensive understanding of effort as a multidimensional construct in individuals with impaired swallowing and/or spoken communication. Method: A comprehensive literature search was conducted across three data-bases: PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and CINAHL, covering publications from 1966 to 2024. The search included terms related to commu
Early recognition and management of sports-related concussion (SRC), including removal from the sports activity, is essential for player safety and to prevent long-term symptoms. A graduated, stepwise rehabilitation protocol is implemented to allow the athlete to return to sports. In 2022, the 6th international consensus statement on concussion in sports was presented, which has now been adapted t
This study compared and examined the electroencephalogram(EEG)-based driver inattention warning system with actual bus drivers in real-road environments. EEG and survey data were gathered from 20 professional bus drivers who drove their buses under the conditions in which the warning systems were turned on and off for 47 days. The analysis revealed that the ratio of the SMR-mid beta to theta(RSMT)
This study develops a theory for the formation of Radical Right Populist (RRP) identities based on the theory of Social Constructivism. The identity construction theory thus proposes that three components must exist in order for RRP identities to be formed. Here, RRP identities are formed during the simultaneous actions of a top ? down and a bottom ? up process of identity formation, and once a RR
The interaction of water vapor with ice remains incompletely understood despite its importance in environmental processes. A particular concern is the probability for water accommodation on the ice surface, for which results from earlier studies vary by more than 2 orders of magnitude. Here, we apply an environmental molecular beam method to directly determine water accommodation and desorption ki
Popular Abstract in Swedish Reglering och kommunikation med störande brus Hur kan man på bästa möjliga sätt skicka data, till exempel en ljudsignal, när kommunikationen störs av brus och ändå måste ske snabbt? Och hur kan man på bästa sätt styra en process när styrsystemet begränsas av dålig kommunikation? Dessa frågor har undersökts i avhandlingen Control and Communication with Signalto-Noise This thesis is about two problems in the intersection of communication and control theory. Their common feature is that they involve communication over an additive white noise channel with a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) constraint. The first problem concerns the transmission of a real-valued signal from a partially observed Markov source. The distortion criterion is the mean squared error and the
