Background: Medication overuse headache is a prevalent secondary headache due to the overuse of analgesics, mainly over-the-counter analgesics. Over-the-counter analgesics have been associated with disrupted male endocrinology, while the effects on female endocrinology remain nearly unknown. The aim was to understand the effect of long-term analgesic exposure in females with medication overuse hea
Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I), the primary component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol primes β-cells to increase insulin secretion, however, the mechanisms involved are not fully defined. Here, we aimed to confirm ApoA-I receptors in β-cells and delineate ApoA-I-receptor pathways in β-cell insulin output. An LRC-TriCEPS experiment was performed using the INS-1E rat β-cell model and ApoA
In the context of a geological repository for nuclear waste, fast and accurate predictions of decay heat are needed for different applications ranging from canister loading optimization to comparing decay heat predictions from state-of-the-art codes with experimental measurements. This work uses a large database of simulated pressurized water reactor (PWR) spent nuclear fuel (SNF) with an extensiv
In this study, we investigate the valorization of 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural (5-HMF), a versatile and pivotal renewable C6 platform chemical, into a C12 heteroaromatic triol, 5,5′-bis(hydroxymethyl)furoin (DHMF), and a C12 heteroaromatic diol, 5,5′-bis(hydroxymethyl)furil (BHMF). The carboligation of 5-HMF to DHMF is catalyzed by an N-heterocyclic carbene, 1,3,4-triphenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triaz
The aim of this chapter is to suggest that the method which Husserl and Peirce both called phenomenology is, in important respects, the same, and that the differences are found not where they were claimed to be. Certain exponents of both kinds of phenomenologies, on the Peircean side, Joseph Ransdell, and on the side of Husserl, Herbert Spiegelberg, have stated that they are incompatible. This pap
Rationale: Knowledge regarding the prevalence and shared and unique characteristics of the restrictive spirometric pattern (RSP) and preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) is lacking for a general population investigated with post-bronchodilator spirometry and computed tomography of the lungs. Objectives: To investigate shared and unique features for RSP and PRISm. Methods: In the Swedish CAr
Introduction: Subanesthetic doses of ketamine are a promising novel treatment for suicidality; however, the evidence for predictive biomarkers is sparse. Recently, measures of complexity, including Lempel–Ziv complexity (LZC) and multiscale entropy (MSE), have been implicated in ketamine's therapeutic action. We evaluated electroencephalogram (EEG)-derived LZC and MSE differences between responder
The rapid proliferation of data across diverse fields has accentuated the importance of accurate imputation for missing values. This task is crucial for ensuring data integrity and deriving meaningful insights. In response to this challenge, we present Xputer, a novel imputation tool that adeptly integrates Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) with the predictive strengths of XGBoost. One of Xp
Cancer has become one of the leading causes of death, with approximately ten million people worldwide dying from cancer each year. In most cases, cancer spreads to remote organs and develops a resistance to therapy. To reduce the deadly impact of cancer, novel targets for markers for early detection are necessary. Given the notable influence of rapid chemical turnover on isotope effects, the heigh
All-inorganic Pb-Cd mixed-cation halide perovskites have emerged as semiconductors exhibiting improved optical and optoelectronic properties. We establish a reliable correlation between photoluminescence and Cd content x in bulk CsPb1−xCdxBr3 compositions, propose pathways of photoexcited charge carrier dynamics in them, and show improved stability of lasing in whispering gallery mode microdisks.
We consider the fundamental problem of assigning distinct labels to agents in theprobabilistic model of population protocols. Our protocols operate under the assumptionthat the size n of the population is embedded in the transition function. W.h.p. (withhigh probability), they are silent, i.e., eventually each agent reaches its nal state andremains in it forever, and they are safe, i.e., never cha
This performance lecture dealt with plan b's ongoing practice of twenty years of collecting personal data, which has been the basis for a number of art works and performances over the years. As artists, educators and researchers, we have deliberately intermingled our art and life, be it through collecting GPS traces of everywhere we go or shouting all our text messages to one another. For us, the

Heart failure (HF) is associated with progressive reduction in cerebral blood flow (CBF) and neurodegenerative changes leading to cognitive decline. The glymphatic system is crucial for the brain's waste removal, and its dysfunction is linked to neurodegeneration.In this study, we used a mouse model of HF, induced by myocardial infarction (MI), to investigate the effects of HF with reduced ejectio
Planthoppers (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha) are a species-rich and globally distributed insect clade with high economic, ecological and evolutionary importance. However, the relationships among planthopper lineages and families remain unclear. Previous efforts based on inconsistent morphological traits, a few genes or limited sampling often resulted in conflicting tree topologies. Here, we used genome
BACKGROUND: The endosymbiotic relationship between Wolbachia bacteria and insects has been of interest for many years due to their diverse types of host reproductive phenotypic manipulation and potential role in the host's evolutionary history and population dynamics. Even though infection rates are high in Lepidoptera and specifically in butterflies, and reproductive manipulation is present in th
We aimed to investigate the school performance gap and its potential trend from 2010 to 2020 in non-immigrant and second-generation immigrant children in Sweden, whether parental mental disorders and low socioeconomic status contribute to this gap and its trends, and whether the effects of these factors differ by immigration status. We used multiple Swedish population registers, including 829,787
Since the Middle Ages, there have been Crown estates in Sweden that were to be used by the King. In 1809-10, an agreement was reached between King and Parliament about the financing of the expenses of the Royal Family and the Royal Household and of the right of the King and the Royal Family to use and govern the Royal Palaces. This agreement is still in force, although it has been amended as regarSince the Middle Ages, there have been Crown estates in Sweden that were to be used by the King.

Over the years, the field of landslide disaster research has amassed a wealth of data and specialized knowledge. However, these resources originate from a wide array of sources and often feature complex data structures, highlighting a persistent lack of methods to integrate multi-source, heterogeneous data. Traditional landslide monitoring methods typically focus on singular monitoring targets and
