Alterations in cortical morphology have consistently been reported in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). However, the microstructural properties of the cortex in OCD, including intracortical myelination, remain far less explored. The contrast between signal intensity in gray and subjacent white matter from T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), i.e. the gray/white matter contrast (GWC), i

Radio-based localization in dynamic environments, such as urban and vehicular settings, requires systems that efficiently adapt to varying signal conditions and environmental changes. Factors like multipath interference and obstructions introduce different levels of complexity that affect the accuracy of the localization. Although generalized models offer broad applicability, they often struggle t

Forældre med flygtningebaggrund har, som alle andre forældre, store forhåbninger til deres børns fremtid. I modsætning til andre familier skal forældre med flygtningebaggrund imidlertid hjælpe deres børn til rette i et samfund, de selv er i gang med at lære at kende, og hvor varigheden af deres ophold ofte er præget af uvished. Denne bog bringer fokus på de dilemmaer og pædagogiske balancegange, d

Invariant natural killer T 1 (iNKT1) cells are prototypic interferon γ-producing, innate-like T lymphocytes that play crucial roles in protection against pathogen infection and cancer. In the thymus, where these cells develop, iNKT cells contribute to the recruitment of antigen-presenting cells and promote T cell tolerance. Although the transcriptional programs guiding iNKT cell specification are

This scoping review aims to systematically explore the extent, nature, and gaps in the existing literature on self-care practices among adolescents and young adults aged 10–24 years living with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) in Sub-Saharan Africa. The review will examine self-care knowledge, attitudes, practices, perceived barriers and facilitators, and interventions developed to support self-care

For the Inner Tracking System 3 (ITS3) upgrade, the ALICE experiment at CERN requires monolithic active pixel sensors of dimensions up to 97 mm×266 mm, occupying a large fraction of a 300 mm wafer. To manufacture such a wafer-scale device, larger than the single design reticle size, stitching is employed. The MOnolithic Stitched Sensor (MOSS) is a prototype silicon pixel sensor of 14 mm×259 mm siz

Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork, in this article, I tell the story of a particular Syrian family and their encounter with a day-care institution in Denmark – and by extension with the Danish state. In doing so, I highlight how the initially legitimate worries and genuine care of the institution turned into a form of ‘coercive concern’ (Jaffe-Walter 2016) as the family failed to fully meet the re

Review of Yingyi Ma's Ambitious and Anxious: How Chinese College Students Succeed and Struggle in American Higher Education

This article adopts a temporal and multi-level perspective on thephenomenon of covidfencing, which emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic of the early 2020s and led to widespread ‘re-bordering’ across European cross-border regions. It explores howdifferent regions experienced covidfencing and analyzes theprocesses that produced divergent outcomes, consideringdevelopments at regional, national, and E

Detta kapitel handlar om ”det goda exemplet” som en lösning på diverse samhällsutmaningar och dess något paradoxala relation till utvärdering. Å ena sidan baseras goda exempel ofta på utvärdering, gärna med hänvisning till evidens och vetenskaplighet. Å andra sidan ser vi dels en stor variation i vad som anses vara ett gott exempel, dels ser vi ganska lite referenser till evidens och vetenskapligh

This thesis develops a Bayesian framework based on Gaussian processes for inferring parameters of differential operators from data and reconstructing the corresponding solution together with its uncertainty. Such inverse problems are often ill-posed and sensitive to noise, which makes classical deterministic inverse approaches unstable and limits their ability to quantify uncertainty. The setup co

Nanoparticle properties depend strongly on composition, making precise control essential for applications in catalysis, sensing, and electronics. By combining two or more elements in a single particle, synergistic properties can emerge that are inaccessible to the individual constituents. Realising these benefits, however, requires reliable methods for tuning composition at the nanoscale.This thes

This article analyses the Europeanisation of Lund University from the mid-1980s until Sweden joined the European Union in 1995. At Lund University, internationalisation had long been high on the agenda but had not had any clear geographical focus. This was to change in the second half of the 1980s, particularly in 1987–1988, when the new emerging European market in research and higher education co

Indigenous and Local Knowledge (ILK) is an expression of biocultural diversity and is vital for inclusive and sustainable forest management and epistemic justice. We examine how researchers studying tropical forest fauna engage with ILK and the Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLC) who are holders of this knowledge. We conducted a systematic review of 62 articles that focus on tropical f

Objective: To develop machine-learning models that incorporate clinical information and radiomics features extracted from ultrasound images to distinguish uterine sarcomas from leiomyomas. Methods: This retrospective, multicenter, pilot case–control study included 200 patients (100 with a uterine sarcoma and 100 with a usual-type leiomyoma, i.e. including no benign leiomyoma variants) who underwen

A fundamental aspect of describing vocal activity is to quantify its overall level. For instance, everyone agrees that animals become more vocal when they are excited or stressed, but what does it mean to be ‘more vocal’? Increased duration of individual calls and their repetition rate are the most commonly reported temporal markers of arousal, but proportion of time [spent] vocalising (PTV) appea
