Esta contribución a la Primera Conferencia Internacional sobre la Transición hacia la no proliferación de Combustibles Fósiles se centra en el pilar temático 3, relativo al avance de la cooperación internacional y la diplomacia climática. La Iniciativa del Tratado de No Proliferación de Combustibles Fósiles (en adelante, Iniciativa FFNPT, por sus siglas en inglés) representa una oportunidad para a

Purpose: To investigate factors guiding follow-up imaging after hospital discharge in atraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) across large European academic centers and compare decision-making patterns using a standardized approach. Methods: Expert neuroradiologists from nine European centers in eight countries detailed their follow-up algorithms for deep and lobar ICH, specifying (1) patient-re

Fourth-generation synchrotron light sources deliver flux densities up to two orders of magnitude higher than previous generations, enabling X-ray imaging at unprecedented spatiotemporal resolution. This is attractive for non-destructive 4D (3D + time) studies of fast dynamics under in-situ or operando conditions. State-of-the-art 4D X-ray imaging at large-scale facilities relies on tomography and

The densification of European cities presents a critical challenge for solar access, particularly in high-latitude Nordic climates. While urban planning in Sweden defines the geometric boundaries of future buildings, there is no statutory requirement to evaluate the resulting solar access at this stage. At later design stages, the Swedish Building Regulations (BBR) mandate daylighting provision, w

Filtration through porous media is the oldest form of drinking water treatment and, to this day, constitutes a focal point of research in water engineering. Mathematical models of filtration are often used in conjunction with supplementary models of concurrent phenomena. For instance, both fluid flow inside and outside the filtering medium are of interest, and models of both flow through porous me

Rupture of unstable atherosclerotic plaques is a major cause of mortality. Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition associates with advanced atherosclerotic plaques and contributes to plaque progression. We examined the role of Twist1, a transcription factor that drives endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition, in plaque progression by inducible deletion from endothelial cells in hypercholesterolemic mi

Background The 2023 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines for acute coronary syndromes (ACS) maintained a Class III recommendation against routine pretreatment with oral P2Y12 inhibitors in non-ST-segment elevation ACS (NSTE-ACS) and downgraded pretreatment in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) to Class IIb. This study evaluated real-world uptake of these recommendations

Rapid urban growth is making cities hotter, a trend further exacerbated by climate change. Urban green spaces (UGS) are commonly used as nature-based solutions to reduce heat, but there are gaps in understanding how cooling effects vary across climate zones. Using satellite data from 2021 to 2024, we examined urban heat and UGS patterns during the hot season across four Ethiopian cities with diffe

Bone conduction hearing implant systems (BCHIs) are established treatments for patients with conductive or mixed hearing loss or single-sided deafness when conventional hearing aids are unsuitable. This study evaluated the cost-effectiveness of the active transcutaneous system Sentio versus a similar system, i.e., Osia in an Australian setting. Scenario analyses also compared Sentio to other syste

Immersive visual environment can deceive our interoceptive perception of how we move relative to our environment. If the visual environment or a high reliance on vision produces straining work conditions, motion sickness or is associated with a medical disorder, the causes merit addressing. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate whether postural control adapts to challenging visua

This thesis consists of three self-contained papers that examine how information and ideologies serve as coordinating forces during episodes of political and social transformation.The first paper studies how shifts in public sentiment can trigger mass mobilization, using the Finnish Civil War of 1918 as a natural experiment. I show that the abrupt abolition of Russian imperial censorship in 1917 p

Background: Inadequate postoperative pain management after lumbar discectomy may delay recovery, increase the risk of chronic pain, and prolong hospitalization. Effective analgesic strategies must balance pain control with minimal adverse effects. Objective: To identify the most effective postoperative analgesic interventions for patients undergoing lumbar discectomy. Databases and Data Treatment:

Rapid warming in the Arctic is transforming northern ecosystems and altering their role in the global carbon cycle. Rising temperatures are driving shifts in vegetation composition, phenology, and ecosystem functioning, including earlier growing seasons and the expansion of shrubs across tundra landscapes. These changes influence surface energy balance, carbon uptake, and climate feedbacks, yet su
