Precise knowledge of the temperature during cutting processes is of high interest as the temperature of a cutting tool dictates the performance, and for the workpiece it controls the quality and integrity of the generated surface. For the first time, in this study, a novel technique has been developed utilizing phosphor thermometry for 2D surface temperature measurement of a cutting tool in metal
This article explores the potential for just knowledge production in Urban Living Labs (ULLs) by foregrounding epistemic justice. Drawing on autoethnographic and ethnographic methods, it examines how testimonial and hermeneutical injustices shape the formation, implementation, and dissemination phases of EU-funded, research-led ULLs. Findings show that funding structures, academic framings, and di
Objective: Family members of a person with drug addiction often experience negative impacts on their lives and face barriers to seeking professional support. More knowledge is needed about such barriers so they can be reduced. This article examines the help-seeking experiences of parents of adult children with drug addiction, a group that has received little attention in research. Method: We condu
Background: The aim was to evaluate whether an artificial intelligence (AI)-based tool for the automated quantification of the total metabolic tumour volume (tMTV) in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) could support nuclear medicine specialists in lesion segmentation and thereby enhance inter-observer agreement. Methods: Forty-eight consecutive patients who underwent staging with [18F]FDG PET/CT
Multidimensional diffusion MRI is a promising new MRI approach that has the potential to non-invasively give information about brain microstructure at an unprecedented level of detail. The present contribution briefly reviews the salient features of the novel method, its historical background and differences with conventional methods, as well as the remaining challenges that have to be overcome in
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life-threatening condition with mortality rates between 30-50%. Although in vitro models replicate some aspects of ARDS, small and large animal models remain the primary research tools due to the multifactorial nature of the disease. When using these animal models, histology serves as the gold standard method to confirm lung injury and exclude other
The Ph.D. dissertation consists of three connected, yet independent research articles, which focus on the implementation of circular economy principles in public procurement. Motivated by a curiosity for dynamics in processes of implementation I chose to investigate how actors related to processes of public procurement can implement the circular economy principles as a default. The aim of the diss
AimsAtrial septal defects (ASDs) lead to volume-loaded right ventricles (RVs). ASD closure does not always alleviate symptoms or improve exercise capacity, which is possibly explained by impaired left ventricular (LV) haemodynamics. This study evaluated the effect of ASD closure in children using non-invasive LV pressure–volume (PV) loops derived from cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging and b
Commentators on Information Systems (IS) education have urged the IS community to develop new and alternative IS curricula. The IS 2002 model curriculum has recently been revised. The new IS 2010 curriculum guidelines for undergraduate degree programs in Information Systems [Topi et al. 2010] has a curriculum structure to accommodate the education of several different professional roles within IS.
BACKGROUND: Medium vessel occlusions (MeVO) can be either isolated events (primary), or secondary to thrombus migration from a large vessel occlusion to a medium-sized vessel. Outcomes following endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) may differ between primary and secondary MeVOs. This study aimed to assess the association between primary/secondary MeVOs and clinical o
Background: There are currently no molecular tests to identify individual breast cancers where radiotherapy (RT) offers no benefit. Profile for the Omission of Local Adjuvant Radiotherapy (POLAR) is a 16-gene molecular signature developed to identify low-risk cancers where RT will not further reduce recurrence rates. Methods: An individual participant data meta-analysis was performed in 623 patien
Objective: This study was undertaken to develop and characterize a multiplex immunoassay for detection of autoantibodies against peptides derived from proteins known to play a role in development of arthritis and that are also expressed in joints. Methods: We selected peptides from the human counterpart of proteins expressed in the joints, based on mouse models that showed these to be targeted by
The marine environment, contains plentiful renewable resources, e.g. macroalgae with unique polysaccharides, motivating search for enzymes from marine microorganisms to explore conversion possibilities of the polysaccharides. In this study, the first GH17 glucanosyltransglycosylase, MlGH17B, from a marine bacterium (Muricauda lutaonensis), was characterized. The enzyme was moderately thermostable
Leveraging the potential of machine learning and recognizing the broad applications of binary classification, it becomes essential to develop platforms that are not only powerful but also transparent, interpretable, and user friendly. We introduce alphaML, a user-friendly platform that provides clear, legible, explainable, transparent, and elucidative (CLETE) binary classification models with comp
As of 2023, Human Rights is one of Lund University’s five profile areas. One aim of the Human Rights profile area is to strengthen interlinkages between research and education in the field of human rights and to facilitate collaboration between courses and education programmes at Lund University that explicitly or implicitly focus on human rights. This report is concerned with the latter of those As of 2023, Human Rights is one of Lund University’s five profile areas.
