The digital healthcare market has been growing rapidly due to the swift development of wearable devices. One notable advancement is the application of digital healthcare technology to vehicles, which is expected to provide a comfortable driving environment and prevent accidents. This study proposed user experience (UX) scenarios to apply and expand digital healthcare technology in vehicles, detail
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 article explores the rationales through which teenage students make sense of and legitimise unpaid labour in low-wage service jobs, contributing to theorising how such exploitation becomes normalised as part of their working lives. Based on 40 in-depth interviews with working school students in Sweden, it focuses on experiences of wage theft and coercive extra shifts, understood as employer s
Introduction. The EU-Horizon 2020 project REWAISE - REsilient WAter Innovation for Smart water Economy – aims to reduce drinking water consumption by 30%. In case of Sweden, the average drinking water consumption is currently 140 litres/day and person [1] and thus should be reduced to approx. 100 litres per day and person. Approximately 45 litres/day and person are currently used for toilets and w
Background: Mucin degradation is essential for understanding oral microbial adaptation, yet the enzymes involved remain incompletely understood. Herein, we have characterised two mucin-degrading proteases, MdpS and MdpS2, from the oral commensal Streptococcus oralis. Materials and methods: MdpS2 was characterised using physicochemical assays and substrate profiling and was compared to MdpS. Furthe
Jorunn Joiner and Mari Komnæs also employ digital tools, albeit other ones, to shed light on the interaction between narratives of exceptionalism, travel, and place. In ‘Mapping Nordic Exceptionalism with GIS: The Odin Migration Theory and the Search for a Northern Heritage’, they use digital mapping tools to visualise the journeys of two travellers from different centuries in their search for a N
IntroductionWater scarcity is a growing problem, with estimates showing that 40% of the world’s population could face water shortages by 2030. This issue is even worse because only 3% of the Earth’s water is freshwater, while 97% is seawater. Finding better ways to save and use water is critical to solving this problem. At the same time, renewable energy is essential for reducing carbon emissions
As decolonization transformed world geopolitics, various Eastern Europeanauthoritarian ultranationalist groups sought to instrumentalize anti-imperialism in their attempts to launch a violent overthrow of the socialist regimes of the Soviet bloc. As the USSR underwent a transformation from the radical anti-imperialism of the 1920s to certain imperial attributes following the announcement of the BrAs decolonization transformed world geopolitics, various Eastern Europeanauthoritarian ultranationalist groups sought to instrumentalize anti-imperialism in their attempts to launch a violent overthrow of the socialist regimes of the Soviet bloc.

This article explores the theoretical origins of modern Russian anti-and decolonial discourse. It has been demonstrated that the roots of Soviet anti-colonial policy are to be found in discussions about the interpretation of the right of nations to self-determination that began among the left at the end of the 19th century. The Leninist interpretation of this concept determined the Bolshevik polic
Improving the catalytic performance in the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of lignin oils to produce liquid fuels, while meeting industrial requirements, is important for addressing current environmental challenges. In the present study, the promoting effects of noble metals (Pd, Pt, and Ir) on the performance of the Ni–Mo/CeLa/Al2O3 catalyst were investigated in the HDO of a lignin-derived pyrolysis oil
Lignin, often considered the most undervalued part of lignocellulose, holds significant potential as a renewable source of valuable chemicals and materials. This study explores new insights into lignin recovery from Norway spruce using two fractionation strategies: (1) hydrotropic extraction (HEX), and (2) steam pretreatment (SE) followed by HEX. The effects of varying sodium xylenesulfonate (SXS)
Catalytic activity is improved by reducing particle size, followed by atomic scale structural and chemical design, allowing physical and electronic confinement of chemical conversion centers. These concepts culminate in single-atom catalysts (SACs) where active precious metal atoms are isolated and anchored on the surface of supports and thus fully utilized for chemical conversion. In contrast, me
This poster explores sustainable water treatment using membrane technologies from a joint South Africa–Sweden perspective. While membrane processes such as MF, UF, NF, RO, and MBRs play a critical role in achieving Sustainable Development Goal 6, their adoption remains uneven due to high capital and operational costs. In South Africa, membrane use is still rare, with only a few MBR installations a
Theories of predictive processing postulate that the brain continuously generates predictions about future linguistic input. Many different linguistic elements have been found to function as predictive cues. One such element is classifiers, i.e., morphemes that classify noun referents according to some semantic property. However, very few studies have so far investigated the predictive function of
Electrodialysis (ED) is a membrane-based separation process that exploits the selective migration of ions under the influence of an electrical driving force. It removes ionized species from liquid solutions using alternating cation- and anion-exchange membranes, arranged between two electrodes. When a direct current is applied, cations move toward the cathode and pass through cation exchange membr
Artificiell intelligens har under de senaste åren fått en allt större betydelse inom hälso- och sjukvården. En framväxande tillämpning är AI-verktyg för journalföring, som automatiserar delar av det administrativa arbetet genom att omvandla tal till text, strukturera anteckningar och i vissa fall föreslå diagnoser eller remisser. Verktygen kan effektivisera vårdpersonalens arbete, men väcker samtiIn recent years, artificial intelligence has gained increasing importance within the healthcare sector. One emerging application is AI medical scribes, which automate parts of administrative work by converting speech to text, structuring clinical notes, and in some cases suggesting diagnoses or referrals. These tools have the potential to improve the efficiency of healthcare professionals, but at
Specifikationsprincipen har under många år varit föremål för diskussion i doktrin och rättspraxis på upphovsrättens område. Principen, som gäller för tolkning av avtal om överlåtelse eller upplåtelse av upphovsrätt, kan definieras som att inget mer av upphovsrätten än vad som uttryckligen anges i avtalsvillkoren ska omfattas av avtalet och att oklara eller omfattande rättighetsöverlåtelser ska tolThe specification principle has for many years been a subject of discussion in legal doctrine and case law regarding copyright. The principle, which applies to the interpretation of contracts concerning the transfer or licensing of copyright, can be defined as meaning that no more of the copyright than what is expressly stated in the contract shall be covered by the agreement, and that unclear or
