This paper examines forest-based bioeconomy innovation in Sweden between 1970 and 2021 to test central claims about innovation complexity, knowledge requirements, collaboration intensity, and industrial life cycle dynamics. Using a comprehensive database of 4,972 commercialized innovations, I identify 649 forest bioeconomy innovations and analyze their characteristics through logistic regression,
In 2022 and 2023, the Large Hadron Collider produced approximately two billion hadronic interactions each second from bunches of protons that collide at a rate of 40 MHz. The ATLAS trigger system is used to reduce this rate to a few kHz for recording. Selections based on hadronic jets, their energy, and event topology reduce the rate to Ô(10) kHz while maintaining high efficiencies for important s
INTRODUCTION: Health promotion in everyday settings is of great importance for both individual health and organizational sustainability. A settings-based approach emphasizes how social, physical, and organizational contexts shape the conditions for health. Central principles in health promotion are participation, empowerment, and person-centeredness, which emphasize the active role of the person o
Simulation methods in breast imaging offer advantages over clinical trials in terms of improved reproducibility, reduced need for patient exposure to radiation, increased flexibility, and more clearly defined ground truth. Simulation also allows for improved representation of anatomical variations and variations in acquisition parameters and breast positioning related to multimodality imaging. The
Background The COVID-19 pandemic has underlined the essential role of primary healthcare (PHC) in epidemiological surveillance and public health decision-making. Across Europe, the integration of electronic health records (EHRs) and the sentinel networks have been pivotal in monitoring COVID-19. However, the lack of standardized PHC indicators for COVID-19 hinders the comparability of data among c
Denna avhandling undersöker styrningen av koldioxidavskiljning och -lagring (CCS) i den nuvarande fasen av policydriven implementering inom europeisk klimatpolitik. Min forskning placeras i mellan etablerad kritik av CCS och dess framväxande, centrala roll i bindande nettonollstrategier. Jag intar en kritiskt pragmatisk hållning som erkänner att CCS är en omtvistad teknik som innebär risker för inThis thesis examines the governance of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology in its current phase of policy-driven deployment within European climate policy. Positioned in the gap between established critique of CCS and its newly central role in binding net-zero strategies, my research adopts a critical-pragmatic stance to acknowledge that CCS is a contentious technology embodying risks of c
This case study investigates the development of subject-specific literacy in Physical Education and Health (PEH) for second language (L2) learners within a Swedish secondary school context. Integrating Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) and Legitimation Code Theory (LCT), the study introduces the concept of embodied cohesion to analyze how meaning is constructed across verbal, graphic, and phys
In order for any learning-based model to be considered reliable, it needs a well-behaved uncertainty or confidence estimate. Most modern neural networks do produce a confidence estimate in the form of their softmax output probability. However, the softmax probability is invalid for out-of-distribution data. Gaussian processes are known to produce a well-behaved confidence estimate that is aware of
Case study research plays an important role for social and political scientists working within the qualitative tradition, with the field of international relations (IR) being no exception. This article provides methodological reflections on the challenges of investigating ‘elusive’ cases within the global governance domain of IR. Taking stock of my experience of studying global multi-stakeholder p
Purpose: To investigate factors guiding follow-up imaging after hospital discharge in atraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) across large European academic centers and compare decision-making patterns using a standardized approach. Methods: Expert neuroradiologists from nine European centers in eight countries detailed their follow-up algorithms for deep and lobar ICH, specifying (1) patient-re
In recent years, Predictive Digital Twins (PDT) have emerged as a potential tool to monitor and predict the behavior of dynamic systems, including nature-based solutions in natural coastal systems. Here, we test the potential of using a simple, coupled shoreline and beach-dune model as a base for a PDT. The models exchange sediment flux balance information at each time step and recalculate shoreli
We describe the design and clinical utility of a digital tool aimed to increase the quality of life for chronic pain patients. PainDrainer™ is a drug-free, self-management tool, powered by artificial intelligence that adapts to the self-reported activities of each individual patient, resulting in a truly patient-centric support. The tool was tested in an open label, one-arm pilot study performed i
Rotating Detonation Combustors (RDCs) offer a promising alternative to conventional gas turbines by utilising continuous supersonic detonation waves for theoretical pressure-gain combustion, boosting thermal efficiencies significantly. However, developing reliable designs is exceptionally challenging because the extreme combustor environments restrict experimental sensors from capturing sub-micros
Background: Isothiazolinones are widely used as preservatives in both cosmetic and non-cosmetic products. Sensitisation to isothiazolinones other than chloromethylisothiazolinone/methylisothiazolinone (CMIT/MIT), present in the baseline series, is increasing. Objectives: To investigate the prevalence of sensitisation to benzisothiazolinone (BIT) in comparison to CMIT/MIT and to develop a product-i
Shared ground heat exchanges could provide low-carbon heating for up to 80% of homes in the UK, research suggests.
OBJECTIVE: Fatigue is a common and debilitating non-motor symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD), arising from a complex interplaying underlying factors. While mental health and sleep are well-established evidence regarding motor symptoms, balance, gait, and cognition remain inconsistent. By explicitly examining multiple symptom domains within the same cohort, we aimed to identify which factors are m
Standardized Care Pathway (SCP) for patients presenting with macroscopic haematuria was introduced in Sweden in 2015. In contrast to neighbouring countries, the Swedish model includes all patients with macroscopic haematuria above the age of 50, notwithstanding obvious causes. The aim of this study was to characterize the patients referred within the SCP and the presence of acute cystitis.All pati
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) as conventionally defined is a chronic condition (typically >3 months duration) incorporating reproducible symptoms of orthostatic intolerance (including dizziness/lightheadedness, and near-syncope) in the absence of orthostatic hypotension (i.e., absence of a sustained systolic blood pressure drop >20mmHg with upright posture). 1-10 More recently
