Background: Precision prevention involves tailoring interventions to the unique characteristics of a group or individual to maximize their effectiveness. In this study, we examined the role of participant characteristics in the effectiveness of lifestyle interventions to optimize gestational weight gain (GWG). Methods: We searched Medline, Embase, and PubMed, from inception up to March 2025, to id
X-rays are commonly used in imaging experiments due to their penetration power, which enables non-destructive resolution of internal structures in samples that are opaque to visible light. Time-resolved X-ray tomography is the state-of-the-art method for obtaining volumetric 4D (3D + time) information by rotating the sample and acquiring projections from different angular viewpoints over time. Thi
Time- and Angle-Resolved Photoelectron Spectroscopy (tr-ARPES) is employed to monitor photoexcited electrons in the 2D hybrid perovskite (BA) (Formula presented.) (MA) (Formula presented.) (Formula presented.) (Formula presented.). Photoelectron intensity maps are in good agreement with ab-initio calculations of the band structure. The effective mass is (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.
Multi-beam ptychography (MBP) offers a scalable solution to improve the throughput of state-of-the-art ptychography by increasing the number of coherent beams that illuminate the sample simultaneously. However, increasing the number of beams in ptychography makes ptychographical reconstructions more challenging and less robust. It has been demonstrated that MBP reconstructions can be made more rob
Objective This study aims to investigate whether oral fluoroquinolone use is associated with an increased risk of aortic and mitral valve regurgitation. Design A nationwide cohort study based on linked healthcare register data encompassing patient characteristics, prescription data and cases of aortic and mitral valve regurgitation. Setting Sweden, 2006–2018. Participants Study participants were a
Abstract in Undetermined Background: Measured or modeled levels of outdoor air pollution are being used as proxies for individual exposure in a growing number of epidemiological studies. We studied the accuracy of such approaches, in comparison with measured individual levels, and also combined modeled levels for each subject's workplace with the levels at their residence to investigate the influe
This study investigated the feasibility of targeting the free, unbound forms of prostate-specific antigen (fPSA) for in vivo imaging of prostate adenocarcinomas (PCa), as PSA is produced and secreted at abundance during every clinical stage and grade of PCa, including castration-resistant disease. We injected (125)I-labeled monoclonal antibody PSA30 (specific for an epitope uniquely accessible on
The variations in functional capacity, life quality and health increase as people grow older. Most likely, this is the result of a lifelong process in which both "wear-and-tear" and constructive development play a major role. Life experiences all the way from daily hazards to burdensome life events, to long-term exposure, to stress and strain might wear out the body. Life experiences of self-fulfi
Informetric/bibliometric analyses have to a large extent been relying on an assumption that research is essentially cumulative in its nature, which is not the least visible in the rational for using citation analyses to assess quality of research. However, when reviewing both the theoretical literature on how research is organized and studies analyzing the structures of research fields through inf
Background: Prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PSMA PET/CT) enables sensitive detection and staging of prostate cancer, yet its relationship with long-term survival remains unclear. This study aimed to assess whether total lesion volume (TLV) measured on [18F]PSMA-1007 PET/CT predicts overall survival (OS) in prostate cancer patients. Methods: A co
The proline-rich domain (PRD) of the tumor suppressor p53 plays a central role in modulating conformational dynamics and molecular interactions, yet its intrinsic structural behavior remains incompletely understood. Here, we combine extensive all-atom molecular dynamics simulations with biophysical validation to characterize the conformational ensemble of the p53 PRD. The domain behaves as an intr
One of the key ecological processes affected by climate change is plant carbon uptake. However, there is substantial uncertainty about how plant carbon uptake will respond to warming in mountain ecosystems, which are known for sharp temperature gradients and abrupt shifts in vegetation structure. Specifically, we lack an understanding of whether these response trajectories over time will be linear
Histatin 5 (Hst5) is a histidine-rich intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) whose biological function arises from a highly heterogeneous conformational ensemble and environmental sensitivity. Unlike structured antimicrobial peptides that rely on persistent secondary motifs, Hst5 remains disordered across a wide range of conditions, enabling continuous adaptation to changes in pH, ionic strength,
Meristem Wall is a prototype for a 3D-printed building envelope, featuring a dynamically controllable network of integrated air channels that allow a fluid and adaptive relationship between inside and outside. The wall integrates functional lighting and electricity, windows, and a custom CNC-knitted textile interior. It is fabricated through binder-jet sand 3D printing and points towards a climati
Metal-halide perovskites (MHPs) are promising as active optoelectronic materials for a diverse range of devices. Anion exchange is a post-growth modification of MHP materials that allows tuning of the band gap and crystal structure by exposure to alternative halides, normally using solution methods. Here, low temperature gas-phase anion exchange for the conversion of CsPbBr3 nanowires (NW) into Cs
Steady state and ultrafast spectroscopy on [FeIII(phtmeimb)2]PF6 (phtmeimb = phenyl(tris(3-methylimidazol-2-ylidene))borate) was performed over a broad range of temperatures. The intramolecular deactivation dynamics of the luminescent doublet ligand-to-metal charge-transfer (2LMCT) state was established based on Arrhenius analysis, indicating the direct deactivation of the 2LMCT state to the doubl
The double quantum coherence (DQC) signal in nonlinear spectroscopy gives information about the many-body correlation effects not easily available by other methods. The signal is short-lived, consequently, a significant part of it is generated during the pulse overlap. Since the signal is at two times the laser frequency, one may intuitively expect that the pulse overlap-related artifacts are filt
Migratory birds have evolved a multitude of physiological and behavioural adaptations to reach their population-specific wintering areas during their first migration. The endogenous program encodes distance, direction and fuelling, and involves species-specific adaptations leading naïve migratory birds along highly diverse routes. While daylength has been extensively studied in relation to the ons
