Ordered assemblies of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals have traditionally been studied for energy transfer and electronic transport arising from wavefunction overlap between neighboring nanocrystals. In this perspective, we instead focus on light-coupled nanocrystal solids engineered primarily for light emission. These materials include ordered superlattices and compositionally doped assemblie
We explore interactions between equally charged surfaces in the presence of simple salt and either neutral or monovalently charged polyampholytes. We consider the possibility of using these charged polymers as crude models of ion clusters. The latter have been hypothesized to form in concentrated aqueous salt solutions and are possibly related to anomalous underscreening. This phenomenon usually m
Using Swedish-matched employer-employee data from 2001 to 2018 and parametric survival analysis, we examine how the share of off-farm wage income affects survival time in the state of hybrid farming. We find a non-linear relationship between the share of off-farm wage income and the risk of exit; at lower levels, the share of off-farm wage income increases the risk of exiting agriculture completel
A number of recent experiments have indicated that magnetic nanoparticles can become locally hotter than their nonmagnetic surroundings during induction heating. While such nanoscale hotspot-effect is particularly attractive for applications within biomedicine and catalysis, its existence is a topic of scientific controversy. To address this, we here present simultaneous measurements of the intern
Mannosyl β-C-1 amidotriazoles have previously been reported to have higher selectivity for galectin-9N (N-terminal domain) than the corresponding galactoside C3 amidotriazoles have, which were more selective for galectin-3. This study further investigated this by synthesis of mono- and bis-aryltriazolyl mannoside analogues to known high-affinity galectin-3 galactosyl-derived inhibitors. Following
The axon initial segment (AIS) is a specialized neuronal microdomain that serves as a physical diffusion barrier, separating the axon from somatodendritic compartments. As a highly plastic structure, the AIS dynamically regulates neuronal excitability and contributes to circuit homeostasis. Recent advances in super-resolution imaging and disease modeling have expanded our understanding of its role
OBJECTIVES: To identify the lowest sensitivity and specificity that physicians and the general population consider acceptable for medical artificial intelligence (AI), relative to current human performance.METHODS: In a nationwide, cross-sectional survey in Sweden, 2025, random samples of 500 physicians and 500 adults from the general population were mailed a questionnaire presenting three vignett

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pathogenesis is shaped not only by viral entry mechanisms but also by interactions with host and microbial factors. The viral spike (S) protein can bind Gram-negative bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a driver of hyperinflammation in severe COVID-19. How viral evolution over the years alters this interaction remains unclear. Here, we i
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a cluster of cardiovascular risk factors, including abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. Its association with venous thromboembolism (VTE) has been inconsistently reported. We investigated the association between MetS and VTE, and the influence of sex and abdominal obesity. We included 12,788 middle-aged and older adults from the re-ex
Aims: Identifying reliable biomarkers is crucial for addressing diagnostic uncertainty and prognostic stratification in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to integrate recent evidence on blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers.Methods: We searched studies published between January 1, 2019, and March 25, 2025, investigating blood or CSF biomar
BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is common among people with HIV (PWH), although studies comparing T2DM-related complications in people with and without HIV (PWoH) remain limited. This was assessed using data from the Cohort Study on Morbidity and HIV in Sweden (COSMOHS).METHOD: Nationwide study including Swedish residents born 1930-2006, diagnosed with T2DM between 2010 and 2019, follo
Den här broschyren riktar sig till dig som vill veta mer om vad palliativ vård är och vad den kan göra för personer med allvarlig sjukdom eller vid tillstånd då livet är hotat.Palliativ vård fokuserar på livskvalitet och kan starta tidigt i sjukdomsförloppet och pågå parallellt med annan vård. Här får du veta mer om vad palliativ vård är och fördelarna med att påbörja den tidigt, oavsett om det är
