Incremental prognostic value of downstream PET perfusion imaging after coronary CT angiography
<p><strong>Purpose: </strong>To evaluate the incremental value of positron emission tomography (PET) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) over coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in predicting short- and long-term ... -
Estimating the lateral speed of a fast shock driven by a coronal mass ejection at the location of solar radio emissions
<p>Context. Fast coronal mass ejections (CMEs) can drive shock waves capable of accelerating electrons to high energies. These shock-accelerated electrons act as sources of electromagnetic radiation, often in the form of ... -
Multifunctional Silk and Gelatin Composed Microneedle Patches for Enhanced Wound Healing
Wound healing has been a continuous critical focus in clinical practice, posing the ongoing challenges and burdens to patients. Current attempts tend to develop multi-drug loaded patches with spatial design. Herein, we ... -
Conscious and unconscious perception of pitch shifts in auditory feedback during vocalization: Behavioral functions and event-related potential correlates
During vocalization, mismatches between expected and perceived auditory feedback are processed rapidly and automatically, suggesting that feedback control of vocalization operates unconsciously. However, whether consciousness ... -
The Polarized Cosmic Hand: IXPE Observations of PSR B1509-58/MSH 15-52
<p>We describe IXPE polarization observations of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) MSH 15−5<sup>2</sup>, the "Cosmic Hand." We find X-ray polarization across the PWN, with <em>B</em>-field vectors generally aligned with filamentary ... -
Evaluation of surface air temperature in the HARMONIE-AROME weather model during a heatwave in the coastal city of Turku, Finland
Performance of meso-scale numerical weather prediction model HARMONIE-AROME was assessed for a summer-time heatwave in a high-latitude coastal city of Turku in SW Finland. Representativeness of the model's ECOCLIMAP-SG ... -
Finnish pre-service primary and science teachers’ motivations to enrol into teacher education and their perceptions of teaching
In Finland, primary teacher education is highly competitive, while secondary science teacher education struggles to fill positions. However, both fields experience turnover. This study investigates the motivations for ... -
Computational Evaluation of Redox Potentials of Metal Complexes for Aqueous Flow Batteries
<p>Flow batteries are a promising option for large-scale stationary energy storage, but better redox active materials are required. Computational Density Functional Theory (DFT) approach to materials screening can identify ... -
Serum cytokine profiles in patients with pancreatic cancer and chronic pancreatitis
<p>Background: Chronic pancreatitis (CP) may cause tumor-like lesions, creating a challenge in distinguishing between CP and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in a patient. Given that invasive surgery is a standard ... -
Evaluation of plasma IL-21 as a potential biomarker for type 1 diabetes progression
IL-21 is a multifunctional cytokine linked with the pathophysiology of several autoimmune diseases, including type 1 diabetes. In this study, our aim was to examine plasma IL-21 levels in individuals at different stages ... -
On distortion of quasiregular mappings of the upper half plane
We prove a sharp result for the distortion of a hyperbolic-type metric under K-quasiregular mappings of the upper half plane. The proof makes use of a new kind of Bernoulli inequality and the Schwarz lemma for quasiregular ... -

Moderate Temperature Reduction Changes the High‐Light Acclimation Strategy of Lettuce Plants
<p>In nature, environmental conditions are constantly changing, requiring plants to have numerous regulatory mechanisms to keep light harvesting and metabolism in balance. Here, we show that high light (HL) induces a much ... -
Multi-isotopic evidence reveals the emergence of a cosmopolitan community at the Luistari cemetery in Eura, Finland, during the early Medieval period (600–1130 CE)
<p>This study examines the role of the Eura region as a nexus linking the inland with Baltic Sea trade routes. Luistari cemetery, spanning from the early Merovingian to Medieval periods, provides key insights into SouthWestern ... -
Refugee Migration and the Politics of Redistribution: Do Supply and Demand Meet?
Aboa Centre for Economics Discussion Paper<p>Voter demand for less redistribution in the face of mass migration maps into actual outcomes insofar as politicians supplying these policies respond to it. We study whether establishing new asylum-seeker centers influences ... -
A field test of empathetic refutational and motivational interviewing to address vaccine hesitancy among patients
Vaccine hesitancy is among the most concerning public health issues due to declining immunization rates worldwide. We report a mixed-methods field test of two conversational techniques that allow for an empathetic dialogue ... -
Water blister geomorphology and subglacial drainage sediments: an example from the bed of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet in SW Finland
<p>This study presents the first light detection and ranging (LiDAR)-based morphometric description of a water blister from a past ice-sheet bed caused by rapid supraglacial drainage. The blister formed during the rapid ... -
Associations between depression, fear of COVID-19 infection and students’ self-care measures used during the first wave of the pandemic
<p><strong>Background: </strong>COVID-19 lockdown resulted in the closure of schools with associated problems. The aim of this study was to determine the associations between depression, fear of contracting COVID-19 infection ... -
Two-Part Interplanetary Type II Solar Radio Bursts
Two similar-looking, two-part interplanetary type II burst events from 2003 and 2012 are reported and analysed. The 2012 event was observed from three different viewing angles, enabling comparisons between the spacecraft ... -
