In this article I shed light on the phenomenon of Chinese young people’s conversion to Christianity and argue that it is often closely tied to a utopian longing for what is missing in their lives (Bloch 1907). Through a person-centered account of two young people, I explore their quests to escape the temporal predicament of endless striving 'fuzao' and search for a better life based autotelic valu

"If on a winter’s night an architect" was presented as part of the launch of "AR(T)CH-RES: platform for artistic research in architecture" at Lund University, within a collective exhibition of artistic research in architecture.Developed through a workshop at the Milano International Design Studio (MInDS), the project takes its structure from Italo Calvino, where a sequence of interrupted narrative

JWST is transforming our ability to characterize small exoplanets, from sub-Neptunes to rocky worlds. A key open question is whether highly irradiated rocky planets can retain atmospheres or are stripped bare by stellar irradiation—a boundary that remains to be mapped observationally. Here we present the first JWST secondary eclipse observations of the rocky exoplanet GJ 3473 b, obtained with MIRI

In the transition to a circular economy there is a need to advance the understanding of how consumer acceptance of circular product-service systems (PSS) can be fostered, since the lack thereof inhibits their adoption and diffusion. This study therefore aims to enhance the understanding of circular PSS acceptance by making two main contributions. First, it proposes a framework that provides a stru

Objectives: Higher levels of positive affect (PA) are consistently associated with lower depressive symptoms in older adults; however, the relative importance of specific PA components remain unclear. This study examined which discrete PA facets show the strongest associations with depressive symptoms and whether these associations reflect genetic or environmental influences using twin methodology

To assess the robustness of risk scores provided by an artificial intelligence (AI) system for digital mammography (DM), when varying the exposure conditions. An anthropomorphic breast phantom containing a lesion, was imaged with DM at different tube voltages (kV), tube loadings (mAs), and anode/filter combinations (W/Rh, Mo/Mo, and Mo/Rh). The organ doses were extracted from the DICOM header and

Context. The nuclear stellar disc (NSD) of the Milky Way is a dense, rotating stellar system in the central ~200 pc. The NSD is thought to be primarily fuelled by bar-driven gas inflows from the inner Galactic disc. Aims. As part of the LEGARE project, we aim to construct the first chemical-evolution models for the NSD using a Bayesian approach tailored to reproducing the observed metallicity-dist

BackgroundColorectal cancer with overgrowth into urinary organs requires en-bloc resection of involved organs to achieve negative resection margins (R0). This study investigates survival and oncological outcomes after colorectal cancer surgery with resections of urinary organs.MethodPatients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery with urological resection in Sweden 2007–2018 were identified via the
