Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the interplay and influence of anxiety and depression between patients with low-risk localized prostate cancer on active surveillance (AS) and their close allies. The research sought to determine if emotional states are interdependent within these dyads, hypothesizing that both actor (self) and partner (close ally) effects would be significant. Met

This article explores migrant precarity and class-sensitive nostalgia in the autofiction of Wioletta Grzegorzewska (Greg), a Polish-born writer whose work portrays the complexities of eastern European migration to the United Kingdom. Her narratives challenge idealized notions of transnational mobility by foregrounding linguistic displacement, economic insecurity, cultural alienation, and systemic

BACKGROUND: Both hospitalised (H) and non-hospitalised (NH) individuals may have different symptoms and impairments after COVID-19. We aimed to explore symptoms, mental and physical health after initial COVID-19 for both groups of individuals and the association between physical and mental impairments in relation to self-rated health status and to identify different cluster profiles.METHODS: Parti

Bakgrund: God kommunikativ och empatisk förmåga hos läkare skapar trygghet och upplevs som professionellt av patienter och närstående. Forskning visar att empati förbättrar patienters följsamhet, nöjdhet och relationen mellan läkare och patient, vilket i sin tur leder till högre vårdkvalitet, bättre behandlingsresultat och minskade vårdkostnader. Ett empatiskt förhållningssätt främjar både fysisk

Political violence in Athens exhibits distinctive spatial and temporal regularities shaped by the city’s symbolic infrastructure, mobility patterns, and socio-political dynamics. This thesis integrates environmental criminology with spatially explicit machine-learning techniques to examine risk patterns of politically motivated violence between 2008 and 2024. Using a multi-layered dataset of 610 a

Since its development in the 1980s, spark ablation has been widely used to produce nanoparticles (NPs) in the aerosol phase, effectively eliminating surface contamination common in other generation methods (Schmitt-Ott, 2019). This is a significant advantage, as the surface of NPs plays a crucial role in applications such as sensing and catalysis. Additionally, spark ablation enables the productio

Background: The Influenza – Monitoring Vaccine Effectiveness in Europe (I-MOVE/I-MOVE+) and Vaccine Effectiveness, Burden and Impact Studies (VEBIS) hospital networks have conducted seasonal multicentre, test-negative, case–control studies in Europe to measure influenza vaccine effectiveness (IVE) since 2015/16. We measured the effect of chronic conditions on VE of influenza A subtypes among older

BakgrundDetta projekt utgår dels från vår ALLAN-studie kring tidig palliativ vård, och dels från tidigare erfarenhet av digital vårdinnovation.Den digitala vårdtjänsten 1177.se erbjuder flexibel kontakt med patienter, vilket kan vara ett alternativ till fysiska hembesök. Samtidigt ifrågasätts om svårt sjuka och äldre patienter kan använda och acceptera digital vård, samt om detta påverkar den inte

In this paper, we speed up robust two-view relative pose from dense correspondences. Previous work has shown that dense matchers can significantly improve both accuracy and robustness in the resulting pose. However, the large number of matches comes with a significantly increased runtime during robust estimation in RANSAC. To avoid this, we propose an efficient match summarization scheme which pro

The authors report a combination of multimodal scanning three-dimensional X-ray diffraction (S3DXRD), X-ray diffraction computed tomography (XRD-CT), and X-ray fluorescence computed tomography (XRF-CT) used for the first time to provide multiscale (spanning the size regime 0.15–500 µm) insight into the aging of a CeO2-ZrO2 solid solution known to exhibit outstanding reversible oxygen storage capac

Rwanda’s Nyabarongo catchment frequently experiences floods, highlighting the need for effective flood susceptibility analysis and management. This study mapped flood susceptibility in the catchment using the random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) models, as well as various conditioning factors including elevation
