Collaboration is expected to play a central role in the transition to abioeconomy—a central pillar of a green economy. Such collaboration is supposed to connect traditional biomass processing firms with diverse actors infields where biomass ought to substitute existing or create novel productsand processes. This study analyzes the network of technology collaborationsamong innovating firms in Swede
The Big Butterfly Count reported its worst results in 14 years of monitoring UK species.
Advancement of aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) for practical application is limited due to the inferior performance of the existing cathode. Herein, we demonstrate rational design and synthesis of an oxygen vacancy-rich low-valent vanadium-based spinel cathode (OV-ZnV2O4) for the fabrication of high-performance AZIBs. ZnV2O4 having an urchin-like morphology with nanorods ∼19 nm in diameter
The aim of this work is to redefine the concept of sensorimotor augmentation, extending it from wearable devices to supernumerary robotic upper limbs that are grounded and can be placed out of the physiological peripersonal space of the user. While the wearability of the supernumerary robotic limb (SRL) is not mandatory, the human-robot connection must be maintained through a wearable interface th
BACKGROUND In the United States, Black men are at highest risk for being diagnosed with and dying from prostate cancer. Given this disparity, we examined relevant data to establish clinical prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening guidelines for Black men in the United States. METHODS A comprehensive literature search identified 1848 unique publications for screening. Of those screened, 287 studi
Innate-like T cells (ILTCs) link innate immune responses with adaptive immune functions. This group includes invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells, mucosa-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells, and γδ T cells. ILTCs detect transformed or stressed cells via non-classical antigen presentation pathways. For example, iNKT cells recognize CD1d-presented glycolipids, MAIT cells respond to MR1-presented
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
Here, we present a workflow for transcriptional silencing of transposable elements (TEs) in human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs). We describe steps for designing guide RNAs (gRNAs) to target TE families or unique TE loci. We also detail procedures for validating the efficiency and specificity of large-scale CRISPRi-based silencing using a multiome approach combining bulk RNA sequencing, C
Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) have produced outcomes varying from no effect at all to high efficacy and durable effects over time. This review analyzed differences in the protocols used in FMT RCTs for IBS in the recently published literature with the aim of identifying the factors responsible for the s
In this introductory article, we explain the purpose of this special issue that is set up as a Festschrift in honour of the (editorial) work of BengtJohannisson. Inspired by Italo Calvino's Six Memos for the Next Millennium, the special issue is structured along six essays that are both commemorative and affirmative, that is we use the work of Johannisson to explore fresh waters and invent new pra
Many concepts for future generations of wireless communication systems use coherent processing of signals from many distributed antennas. The aim is to improve communication reliability, capacity, and energy efficiency and provide possibilities for new applications through integrated communication and sensing. The large bandwidths available in the higher bands have inspired much work regarding sen
Gaze-control and gaze-assistance in software development tools have so far been explored in the setting of code editing, but other developer activities like code review could also benefit from this kind of tool support.In this paper, we present GANDER, a platform for user studies on gaze-assisted code review. As a proof of concept, we extend the platform with an assistant that highlights name rela
The biogenesis of transfer RNA is a process that requires many different factors. In this study, we describe a genetic screen aimed to identify gene products participating in this process. By screening for mutations lethal in combination with a sup61-T47:2C allele, coding for a mutant form of, the nonessential TAN1 gene was identified. We show that the TAN1 gene product is required for formation o
The purpose of this paper is to show how requirements engineering techniques can be used to structure the development of non-technical aspects of socio-technical systems, such as guidelines. An adapted requirements engineering approach was chosen to elicit requirements for resilience guidelines within an EU Horizon 2020 multi-national project aimed at developing resilience guidelines for crisis ma
This paper presents a simple and effective control solution to regulate temperature and humidity inside a greenhouse, which are the main climatic variables affecting crop growth and health. A multivariable control strategy with inverted decoupling is proposed in two schemes. The nighttime control scheme uses heating and dehumidification, and the daytime control scheme uses natural ventilation, deh
Blood-based biomarkers for screening may guide tau positrion emissition tomography (PET) scan referrals to optimize prognostic evaluation in Alzheimer’s disease. Plasma Aβ42/Aβ40, pTau181, pTau217, pTau231, NfL, and GFAP were measured along with tau-PET in memory clinic patients with subjective cognitive decline, mild cognitive impairment or dementia, in the Swedish BioFINDER-2 study (n = 548) and
Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, industries have gained a thrust on contactless processing for computing technologies and industrial automation. Cloud of Things (CoT) is one of the emerging computing technologies for such applications. CoT combines the most emerging cloud computing and the Internet of Things. The development in industrial automation made them highly interdependent because the cloud c
Currently, both the US and the EU are pursuing industrial policies to support climate mitigation objectives. The climate transition will require increased use of material resources, but the envisioned industrial policies do not sufficiently address resource use, despite the current unsustainable global resource-use trajectory. The lack of industrial policy in this field is therefore relevant and t
Background and purpose: Motion management techniques are important to spare the healthy tissue adequately. However, they are complex and need dedicated quality assurance. The aim of this study was to create a dynamic phantom designed for quality assurance and to replicate a patient's size, anatomy, and tissue density. Materials and methods: A computed tomography (CT) scan of a cancer patient was u
