En essä om tomrummets betydelse i antika textfragment, utifrån boken Sophögen i Oxyrhynchos om papyrusfynden i Egypten.

In the era of artificial intelligence of things (AIoT), distributed processing on local devices is growing in popularity. This stems from the need to reduce data transfer to and from central servers, with concerns about privacy and latency encouraging the processing of AI applications on edge devices. However, the computational demands of these applications require an increase in the processing ca

This study presents a transformative advancement in water-energy nexus management by developing a hydrostatic pressure wheel (HPW) system that simultaneously optimizes water level regulation and hydropower generation in open-channel irrigation systems (OCISs)—a dual functionality not achieved by existing technologies. While conventional waterwheels focus solely on energy production, our HPW design

Arid regions in Central Asia face persistent and increasing water scarcity, with groundwater serving as the primary source for drinking water, irrigation, and industry. The effective exploration and management of groundwater resources are critical, but are constrained by limited monitoring infrastructure and complex hydrogeological settings. This study investigates the Akbakay aquifer, a represent

The aim of this study was to assess aquifer salinity risk by identifying high-risk land-use zones and proposing a new paradigm for groundwater resource management under salinization pressure. Salinity risk modeling was conducted with consideration of land-use patterns and agricultural production in the study region. The results revealed that approximately 26% of the aquifer lies within high-risk s

In a world where the challenges of climate change, social inequality, economic instability, and geopolitical tensions are ever-present, educators have a unique opportunity—and responsibility—to prepare their students to navigate these complexities. However, educators are also juggling teaching and research, competing deadlines, shifting expectations, institutional paradigms, and limited time and s

Objective: To investigate whether modifying hearing aid gain at the individual’s tinnitus pitch augments tinnitus mitigation from hearing aid amplification. Design: Participants were randomised to receive hearing aids delivering either objectively verified Conventional Amplification (n = 36), Increased Gain at Tinnitus Pitch (n = 36), or eliminated gain at tinnitus pitch, so-called Notch Therapy (

The number of degrees of freedom (NDoF) in a communication channel fundamentally limits the number of independent spatial modes available for transmitting and receiving information. Although the NDoF can be computed numerically for specific configurations using singular value decomposition (SVD) of the channel operator, this approach provides limited physical insight. In this paper, we introduce a

Aim: Periodontitis proxy variables enable an expansion of periodontal research. The study aimed to estimate the validity of questionnaire items and registry data in relation to Stage III–IV periodontitis and having 50% bone loss. Methods: Malmö Offspring Dental Study (MODS) participants (995) filled out questionnaires and underwent periodontal and panoramic radiography examinations. The questionna

Purpose: Accurate non-invasive prediction of histopathologic invasiveness and recurrence risk remains a clinical challenge in resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We developed and validated the Edge Proximity Score (EPS), a novel [18F]FDG PET/CT-based spatial imaging feature that quantifies the displacement of SUVmax relative to the tumor centroid and perimeter, to assess tumor aggressiv

Expands the scope of Islamic Studies to include the study of non-Muslim Islam Introduces a new concept (non-Muslim Islam) that challenges commonly held notions about the object of study within Islamic studies Invites critical thinking about how knowledge about Islam is produced in non-Muslim majority societies on both a scholarly and societal level This book empirically substantiates a re-conceptu

Prurigo nodularis (PN) is a chronic, itchy, inflammatory skin condition that negatively affects quality of life. A study was undertaken to investigate the healthcare utilization, including treatment patterns and direct costs for specialist care, for PN in Sweden. Linkage cohorts were created from national Swedish patient and prescription registers, and the cost-per-patient database of PN adults in
