c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs) are implicated in both neurodegeneration and mood regulation, including anxiety and depressive-like behaviours. Yet the consequences of JNK inhibition in vivo on protein phosphorylation in the brain remain largely unknown. This study aimed to (1) determine how chronic JNK inhibition altered proteome-wide phosphorylation in hippocampus and nucleus accumbens, regions

As populations age and multimorbidity becomes increasingly prevalent, the demand for high risk surgical procedures continues to rise. Although short term surgical outcomes in Sweden are generally favourable, evidence regarding long term morbidity and mortality following non cardiac surgery remains limited. This thesis investigates perioperative determinants of long term outcomes, with the aim of i

AIM: Preoperative anaemia is a well-established risk factor for poor outcomes. However, the impact of postoperative haemoglobin (Hb) levels on long-term outcomes, including mortality and cardiovascular events, remains uncertain. This study aims to assess the independent association between postoperative nadir Hb levels and long-term outcomes, considering the potential interaction with preoperative

Background: Procalcitonin (PCT) is a biomarker used to differentiate between viral and bacterial infections, though the underlying mechanisms are not yet fully understood. This study aimed to identify genetic variants associated with plasma PCT concentrations and explore the associations of genetically predicted PCT with a wide range of disease related traits in a PheWAS. Methods: We conducted GWA

Articular cartilage undergoes structural and compositional changes during osteoarthritis (OA), one of the most common joint diseases. Earlier research shows that these changes are dependent on species and joint site, and they also vary across cartilage depth. In this study, we analyzed the depth-wise proteoglycan and collagen contents, as well as collagen fibril orientation angle and fibril alignm

Rational & Objective: Sarcopenia is linked to increased morbidity and mortality in chronic kidney disease (CKD), but its definition and assessment vary considerably across studies. This study evaluated the technical feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)–based assessment of adverse muscle composition (AMC)—defined as low muscle volume and high fat infiltration—and its associations wit

Accurate, high-resolution global land use and land cover (LULC) mapping is crucial for environmental monitoring, but remains challenging when relying solely on multispectral data. Most existing global LULC mapping studies rely exclusively on multispectral observations, and even those that incorporate synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data often fail to fully exploit the information it provides. SAR p

Abstract in Polish:Artykuł omawia trzy skandynawskie filmy dokumentalne: Zaćmienie duszy (2000) fińskiej reżyserki Marji Pensali, Tankograd (2010) autorstwa Duńczyka Borisa Bertrama oraz Nadzy z Petersburga (2010) w reżyserii duńskiej twórczyni Ady Bligaard Søby. Każdy z dokumentów to portret wybranego miasta w Rosji i jego mieszkańców. Odwołując się do koncepcji takich jak „rosyjska dusza”, bytieThe article discusses three documentaries made since 2000 by Scandinavian filmmakers: the Finnish director Marja Pensala’s The Eclipse of the Soul (2000) and two films by Danish authors: Boris Bertram’s Tankograd (2010) and Ada Bligaard Søby’s The Naked of Saint Petersburg (2010). All the films are portraits of Russian cities and their residents. In my study, I draw on concepts such as the “Russia
