Autoantibodies neutralizing type I IFNs underlie ~5% of herpes simplex encephalitis in adults.

Inborn errors of type I interferon (IFN-I) immunity account for ∼7-8% of herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) cases in young children, but the pathogenesis of HSE in adults is largely unknown. We report that IFN-I autoantibodies (auto-Abs) in serum/plasma samples drawn before, durin...

Sexual dimorphism shapes the plasma metabolome of the endangered Iberian lynx

Sexual dimorphism is a key but still incompletely resolved determinant of mammalian systemic metabolism, particularly in endangered species where physiological organization remains poorly characterized. Here, we integrate untargeted plasma metabolomics to dissect hierarchical det...

Communication Support and Training for Families Affected by Aphasia: A National Survey Exploring Perspectives of Professionals

BACKGROUND: Aphasia affects both the individuals and their families, impacting communication, social connectedness, roles and mental health. The focus in neurorehabilitation often remains on the individual, yet research suggests that addressing the family as a system would be ben...

Accelerated Materials Discovery Through In Situ X‐ray Diffraction: Solvothermal Formation of Pd x M y (M═Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) Intermetallic Nanoparticles

ABSTRACT Machine learning and artificial intelligence approaches are expected to accelerate the development of new materials, for example through automated synthesis. Here, we investigate another approach to accelerate materials discovery, namely in situ synchrotron Powder x‐ray...

Insect outbreak progression over three years shapes biogenic volatile emissions in a mountain birch forest

Abstract Geometrid moth outbreaks are important natural disturbances in mountain birch ( Betula pubescens ssp. czerepanovii ) forests of northern Fennoscandia and are expected to intensify with climate change. Impacts of these outbreaks and moth herbivory on biogenic volatile org...

Determinants of Profit in the Baobab Products Value Chain: Evidence From Burkina Faso

ABSTRACT The baobab value chain in Burkina Faso provides a relevant case for examining the contribution of non‐timber forest products (NTFPs) to rural livelihoods. Despite several government initiatives, including the establishment of the National Agency for the Promotion of NTFP...

Establish links with EU Research infrastructures and projects

This document corresponds to Milestone MS17: "Establish links with EU Research infrastructures and projects," as part of the BioGeoSea project on Essential ocean variables. It presents a summary of the steps taken to create those links, in-person and online, via engagement at con...

Association of Chest Compression Depth, Rate, and Spring Resistance with “Quality CardioPulmonary Resuscitation” (QCPR) Scores in a Manikin Model

Training in high-quality chest compressions (CCs) is essential for effective resuscitation; however, it remains unclear how accurately real-time feedback systems, such as Laerdal Medical's (Stavanger, Norway) Quality CardioPulmonary Resuscitation (QCPR) scoring system, reflect gu...

Climate change and marine diversity in the high latitudes: Holocene insights from the Baffin Bay-Labrador Sea region

Anthropogenic climate change has already caused shifts in Arctic species distributions, but regional patterns of diversity change are complex. We examine ecosystem responses during the Holocene, based on micropalaeontological community composition and Shannon diversity index anal...

Entrepreneurial agency in mission oriented innovation policies

Policy makers have recently turned to mission-oriented innovation policies (MOIPs) to direct entrepreneurial activity towards societal goals. Yet, while entrepreneurial experimentation is a key component of missions, there has been limited exchange between the MOIP literature and...

Changes in skeletal muscle and physical function after cardiac surgery: a prospective study

Objectives To assess postoperative changes in muscle mass and quality, factors associated with these changes, and sarcopenia prevalence in older cardiac surgery patients. Design Secondary observational analysis of a randomized controlled early rehabilitation trial Setting Tertiar...

Residential road traffic noise and incidence of depression in Denmark: a nationwide cohort study

Background Evidence linking transportation noise to depression is limited. We investigated associations between road traffic noise at the most (LdenMax) and least (LdenMin) exposed façades and depression risk in Denmark. Methods We established a nationwide cohort of 2,941,456 adu...

A curated genome-scale nucleotide diversity panel of non-human primates

Primates constitute one of the most phylogenetically and ecologically diverse eutherian mammalian orders and have a central role in advancing our knowledge of human evolution, speciation processes, and conservation biology. Although thousands of whole-genome sequences are availab...

Visual Impression of Urban Space: A Systematic Review of Empirical Findings, Challenges, and Opportunities

Studies of visual impression seek to link the visual features of urban spaces with users’ subjective experiences (e.g., perceiving and describing a space as “inviting”). By revealing the relationships between visual characteristics and users’ experiences, such studies can inform...

What data do we need to value household flood costs? A framework and assessment for storm surge and cloudburst in Denmark

Estimates of flood damage to households in Denmark rest mainly on insurance payouts. Payouts capture only part of the cost of flood risk. This paper identifies potential data sources for the full cost that storm surges and cloudbursts impose on households. To estab- lish which da...

Toward the Use of Real‐World Data for Regulatory and HTA Decision‐Making: Experiences and Recommendations from Six EU ‐Funded Projects

Real-world data are increasingly important for regulatory and health technology assessment decision-making, yet their effective use across Europe remains limited by technical, methodological, regulatory, and societal challenges. Drawing on the experiences of six Horizon Europe pr...

Automated morphometric modelling of an endangered freshwater cetacean from unscaled UAV imagery using an internal scaling framework

With the rapid advancement of drone technology, aerial photogrammetry has been increasingly applied to morphometric research, particularly for endangered species, owing to its fully non-invasive nature. Photogrammetry-derived morphometric models (e.g., three-dimensional reconstru...

Big data and psychiatry: advances, constraints and future directions.

Early work in psychiatry research, often involving single sites, small samples, and limited variables, has shifted to contemporary research involving multiple sites, large samples, and many variables. Such research raises important questions, including concerns about data quality...

A New Approach to Optimal Function Inlining for Code Size Minimization via E-graphs

Minimizing code size is a central problem in compiler optimization, especially in the context of embedded systems and mobile applications. One of the classical optimizations that has recently been adopted to reduce the output code size is function inlining, i.e. repeatedly replac...

Balancing novelty and familiarity: a person-centered approach to openness to change and conservation values in tourism

Understanding how personal values shape preference formation is a central concern in personality and social psychology, and increasingly relevant to tourism research. This study examines how openness to change (self-direction, stimulation, and hedonism) and conservation values (c...
