Short presentation of Swedish-German filmmaker Peter Weiss (1916 - 1982) and his films in connection with a new streaming service from the Filmform foundation

Aging is characterized by increased reactive species, leading to redox imbalance, oxidative damage, and senescence. The adverse effects of alcohol consumption potentiate aging-associated alterations, promoting several diseases, including liver diseases. Nucleoredoxin (NXN) is a redox-sensitive enzyme that targets reactive oxygen species and regulates key cellular processes through redox protein–pr

Background: Histological grade is a well-known prognostic factor that is routinely assessed in breast tumours. However, manual assessment of Nottingham Histological Grade (NHG) has high inter-assessor and inter-laboratory variability, causing uncertainty in grade assignments. To address this challenge, we developed and validated a three-level NHG-like deep learning-based histological grade model (

Participants judged the risk of an infection during a face to face conversation at different interpersonal distances from a SARS-CoV-2 infected person who wore a face mask or not, and in the same questionnaire answered questions about Corona related issues. Keeping a distance to an infected person serves as a protective measure against an infection. When an infected person moves closer, risk of in

The extensive exposure of the Archean continental crust in southern West Greenland makes it an important window into the tectonic evolution of early Earth. Here, we provide a comprehensive geochemical data set for tholeiitic amphibolites (meta-basalts), calc-alkaline leucoamphibolites (meta-andesites), and ultramafic rocks (meta-cumulates) for the Mesoarchean Bjørneøen Supracrustal Belt, Nuuk regi

Increasingly social activists, journalists and policy makers have expressed concern over the proliferation of conspiracy theories in the public space. There is a growing fear of their impact on social cohesion and democracy, their power to erode trust in state institutions and science. These concerns often come with an expectation that it is the responsibility of academics to engage with conspirac

Ketamine is a common anesthetic used in human and veterinary medicine. This drug has recently received increased medical and scientific attention due to its indications for neurological diseases. Despite being applied for decades, ketamine’s entire metabolism and pharmacological profile have not been elucidated yet. Therefore, insights into the metabolism and brain distribution are important towar

Aims: This study aimed to investigate the additional value of global longitudinal strain (GLS) on top of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in long-term risk prediction of combined death and heart failure (HF) re-hospitalization after acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Method and results: This retrospective study included patients admitted with ACS between 2008 and 2014 from the three participa

Background and purpose: Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency is in up to 90% caused by pathogenic variants in the X-linked PDHA1 gene. We aimed to investigate female relatives of index patients with PDHA1-related disease to (i) describe the prevalence of female PDHA1 carriers, (ii) determine whether they had symptoms and signs, and (iii) delineate the associated phenotype. Methods: In a natio

In 1946, one year after the atomic bombings of Japan, Palestinian thinker ʿAli Rashid Shaʿath (1908–1967) published a book entitled Min al-binsilin ila al-qunbula al-zarriya (From Penicillin to the Atomic Bomb). An accessible work of popular science, it con- tains highly optimistic reflections on the future and predicts the following two events as a result of nuclear technology and energy: a worke

Context. Complex models recently became available for studying the dynamics of disk galaxies such as the Milky Way (MW). These models include the global dynamics from dwarf satellite galaxies, dark matter halo structure, gas infall, and stellar disks in a cosmological context. Aims. We use a MW model from a suite of high-resolution hydrodynamical cosmological simulations named GARROTXA to establis

Plant pathogens are challenged by host-derived iron starvation or excess during infection, but the mechanism of plant pathogens rapidly adapting to the dynamic host iron environments to assimilate iron for invasion and colonization remains largely unexplored. Here, we found that the GATA transcription factor SreC in Curvularia lunata is required for virulence and adaption to the host iron excess e

Climate change risk assessment studies focus on identifying and analyzing different risks considering several climate change scenarios and on evaluating the cost-effectiveness of different adaptation measures. However, risk acceptability is often not reflected on in the context of climate change risk studies. Noting that the different climate change scenarios depict drastically contrasting images

The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate parents’ experiences and satisfaction with family-centered care (FCC)when their child was cared for at a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). To obtain a deeper understanding of parents’experiences and satisfaction, two qualitative studies were conducted (Papers I and III). For Paper I, 10 individualinterviews were conducted two years after their

Industry 4.0, with its focus on flexibility and customizability, is pushing in the direction of wireless communication in future smart factories, in particular, massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) and its future evolution of large intelligent surfaces (LIS), which provide more reliable channel quality than previous technologies. At the same time, network slicing in 5G and beyond systems
