ObjectivesLack of trust and transparency is stressed as a challenge for clinical implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI). In breast cancer screening, AI-supported reading shows promising results but more research is needed on how medical experts, that are facing the integration of AI into their work, reason about trust and information needs. From a sociotechnical information practice perspe
It is generally known that, unlike structured proteins, intrinsically disordered proteins, IDPs, exhibit various structures and conformers, the so-called conformational ensemble, CoE. This study aims to better understand the conformers that make up the IDP ensemble by decomposing the CoE into groups separated by their radius of gyration, Rg. A common approach to studying CoE for IDPs is to use low
The presence of overlapping elements in distinct events promotes the formation of associative inferences across event boundaries, thereby shaping how new information is integrated with pre-existing knowledge. This study investigates the influence of schema congruency on mnemonic processes involved in such associative inferences.The present study employed EEG recordings of brain activity to assess
With the aim to advance the understanding of immune regulation in MCL and to identify targetable T-cell subsets, we set out to combine image analysis and spatial omic technology focused on both early and late differentiation stages of T cells. MCL patient tissue (n = 102) was explored using image analysis and GeoMx spatial omics profiling of 69 proteins and 1812 mRNAs. Tumor cells, T helper (TH) c
Episodic memory formation entails the integration of diverse elements such as people, places, and objects. This process, known as binding, creates a unified memory trace that the brain maintains and retrieves as a coherent representation of the episode. Despite extensive research, the precise neural mechanisms underlying this binding process are still not fully understood. We hypothesized that the
Mechanical testing of articular cartilage yields highly variable results, posing challenges for tissue characterization. Many factors cause variability, one is sample geometry. Using in-situ phase-contrast enhanced synchrotron micro-tomographs of cartilage samples while tested in unconfined compression (stress relaxation) our group found high variability in the mechanical response. Since all sampl
BACKGROUND: Pancreatic surgery remains associated with high morbidity rates. Although postoperative mortality appears to have improved with specialization, the outcomes reported in the literature reflect the activity of highly specialized centres. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes following pancreatic surgery worldwide.METHODS: This was an international, prospective, multicentre,
The processes responsible for the formation of Earth's most conspicuous diversity pattern, the latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG), remain unexplored for many clades in the Tree of Life. Here, we present a densely sampled and dated molecular phylogeny for the most speciose clade of damselflies worldwide (Odonata: Coenagrionoidea) and investigate the role of time, macroevolutionary processes, and
Background: Single diffusion encoding is a widely used, noninvasive technique for probing the tissue microstructure in breast tumors. However, it does not provide detailed information about the microenvironmental complexity. This study investigated the clinical utility of tensor-valued diffusion encoding for evaluating microstructural changes in breast cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC).
There is an abundance of commercial and open-source eye trackers available for researchers interested in gaze and eye movements. Which aspects should be considered when choosing an eye tracker? The paper describes what distinguishes different types of eye trackers, their suitability for different types of research questions, and highlights questions researchers should ask themselves to make an inf
Portal hypertension, a life-threatening complication of cirrhosis,is largely triggered by increased intrahepatic vascular resistance.Fibrosis, regenerative nodule formation, intrahepatic angiogenisis and sinusoidalremodelling are classical mechanisms that account for increasedintrahepatic vascular resistance in cirrhosis. Our study leverages highresolution3D synchrotron radiation-based microtomogr
This study investigates the interaction of KEIF, the intrinsically disordered N-terminal region of the magnesium transporter MgtA, with lipid bilayers mimicking cell membranes. Combining experimental techniques such as neutron reflectometry (NR), quartz-crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D), synchrotron radiation circular dichroism (SRCD), and oriented circular dichroism (OCD),
This study applies a spatial multi-criteria analysis to assess ground suitability for pier-supported viaduct railways using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). By integrating expert judgments, the analysis evaluates six key geotechnical categories—soil type, soil depth, rock type, slope, wetness index, and groundwater occurrence—to map ground suitability. Three weight normalisation methods wer
Objective: To investigate whether tangential versus segmental portomesenteric venous resection (PVR) impacts surgical and oncological outcome in patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy for pancreatic cancer with portomesenteric vein (PMV) involvement. Summary Background Data: Current comparative studies on tangential versus segmental PVR as part of pancreatoduodenectomy for pancreatic cancer inc
Objectives: In this nationwide cohort study in a Scandinavian setting, we aimed to investigate the magnitude of association between flucloxacillin use and drug-induced liver injury (DILI). Methods: Nationwide cohort study among adults in Sweden, 2006–2018, was conducted. Register data on filled prescriptions, patient characteristics, co-medications, and DILI were linked. All filled prescriptions f
Accelerated biodiversity loss has destabilized functional links within and between ecosystems. Species that cross different ecosystems during migration between breeding and nonbreeding sites are particularly sensitive to global change because they are exposed to various, often ecosystem-specific, threats. Because these threats have lethal and nonlethal effects on populations, many migratory specie
BACKGROUND: The degree to which avian migrants revisit the same sites to replicate routes from previous years has received more and more attention as the possibilities of tracking small to medium-size birds over multiple annual cycles have improved. Repeated measurements of individuals with an appropriate sampling resolution can potentially inform about their navigation and migration strategies an
Background: Real-time (RT) phase contrast (PC) flow MRI can potentially be used to measure blood flow in arrhythmic patients. Undersampled RT PC has been combined with online compressed sensing (CS) reconstruction (CS RT) enabling clinical use. However, CS RT flow has not been validated in a clinical setting. Purpose: Evaluate CS RT in phantom and patients. Study Type: Prospective. Population: Flo
Exposure to extreme temperatures can negatively affect animal reproduction, by disrupting the ability of individuals to produce any offspring (fertility), or the number of offspring produced by fertile individuals (fecundity). This has important ecological consequences, because reproduction is the ultimate measure of population fitness: a reduction in reproductive output lowers the population grow
Transition metal complexes play a crucial role in solar energy conversion. These coordination compounds have promising applications in dye-sensitized solar cells and photocatalysis, with particular interest in solar fuel production. However, many of the photoactive transition metal complexes used in light-harvesting applications are still based on rare and expensive metals from the transition meta
