Unraveling the mechanisms underlying the maintenance of species diversity is a central pursuit in ecology. It has been hypothesized that ectomycorrhizal (EcM) in contrast to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi can reduce tree species diversity in local communities, which remains to be tested at the global scale. To address this gap, we analyzed global forest inventory data and revealed that the relations

Slättbygdslandskap saknar i stort födoresurser för pollinerande insekter. Insådd av blommande remsor har blivit allt vanligare runtom i Europa, som en del av ländernas miljöstödsprogram och som ett sätt att öka tillgången på blomresurser. Länder som England, Österrike och Tyskland har exempelvis miljöstöd för blommande remsor. Flera andra länder, bl.a. Sverige har ersättning för blommande ytor som

En stad är ett mångfasetterat och svårbestämt begrepp och på samma vis blir därför speglingarna av staden mångfasetterade.Trettio författare bjuder i boken på sina speglingar och berättelser därför finns olika minnen och flera tidsreferenser som ställer frågor om; vad en stad är; vilka historier en stad som Malmö bär på; hur berättandet och avbildandet av staden möjliggörs, genom vilka kanaler ske

Mitochondrial replacement therapy has been developed in order to prevent the transmission of mitochondrial mutations, yet it raises ethical concerns, particularly regarding the involvement of third-party DNA and the risks associated with donor procedures. This paper explores an alternative approach using synthetic DNA (synDNA) to construct mitochondrial organelles, thereby bypassing the need for d

Malmö Strumpfabrik, eller Strumpan som fabriken har kallats i folkmun genom åren, har på flera vis en särställning i Malmö: som bärare av kvinnors, mäns och migranters erfarenheter från en textilindustri; som en lokal kultur, på samma gång patriarkal och med stark facklig tradition; som högteknologi och kanske Europas modernaste; som ledande i den svenska och nordiska mode- och livsstilsproduktion

En stad är ett mångfasetterat och svårbestämt begrepp och på samma vis blir därför speglingarna av staden mångfasetterade. Som om stadens invånare vid samma tillfälle såg inte en, utan flera städer samtidigt, och där speglingarna utgör samtidens motsägelsefulla bilder av en och samma stad. Många– författare, journalister, forskare, musiker och filmare – har visat sitt intresse för Malmö. Ändå finn

Transparency has emerged as a fundamental component of ethical AI guidelines around the world. In the European Union (EU), it is recognised as one of the core principles for fostering Trustworthy AI, and serves as a cornerstone in building an ecosystem of trust within the AI governance framework.However, to support these ambitious policy objectives, the concept of transparency must be translated i

Topology optimization is a mathematical tool for the computational design of structures,particularly valuable in the early stages of the design process. Gradient-basedoptimization methods, combined with finite element analysis, form the foundation ofan iterative procedure where the design is continuously updated and evaluated. To expandthe applicability of topology optimization, this thesis explor

Denna avhandling är en sammanläggningsavhandling som består av tre enskilda forskningsartiklar som undersöker om och hur de inflytelserika åren, negativa händelser och kollektiva kriser påverkar social tillit – tron att dom flesta människor går att lita på. Trots det omfattande vetenskapliga intresset för social tillit, baseras större delen av tidigare forskning om hur social tillit formas över liThis dissertation is a compilation thesis comprised of three individual research articles that explore whether and how the impressionable years, detrimental events and collective crises predict social trust – the belief that most people can be trusted. Despite the widespread scholarly interest in social trust, most previous research in the formation of social trust over the life-course is based on

Having a child with a disability undoubtedly affects parents in many ways, including their well-being. However, the specific mental health trajectories of parents, differentiated by the severity of impairments and parental roles, remain under-explored. We investigate the mental-health effects of having a child with a disability. Using individual-level register data from Sweden, we exploit the epid

In this chapter, we evaluate how the concept of the entrepreneurial ecosystem - a systemic approach to regional economic development that is receiving increased attention from both policymakers and academics - can assist in analysing and understanding the informal economy. We argue that despite the focus of entrepreneurial ecosystems on high-growth entrepreneurship, the ‘systemic’ perspective of t

J. S. Wilson proved in 1971 an isomorphism between the structural lattice associated to a group belonging to his second class of groups with every proper quotient finite and the Boolean algebra of clopen subsets of Cantor’s ternary set. In this paper we generalize this isomorphism to the class of branch groups. Moreover, we show that for every faithful branch action of a group G on a spherically h

Being the most common of the upper extremity fractures, the distal radius fracture rightfully earns its attraction. In a global population rapidly growing older, the number of patients with a distal radius fracture will increase. Innovative devices have been developed in the last few decades to restore the anatomy. The well-trained surgeon has all the options to fix the majority of fractures in an

Esophageal lesions are common findings in disorders of the digestive tract in patients living with HIV, the most typical symptoms being odynophagia and/or dysphagia. This article provides a narrative review of the spectrum of esophagitis in patients living with HIV, focusing on fungal, viral, bacterial and non-infectious etiologies, as well as co-infections with viral hepatitis viruses. The articl

Introduction: The healthcare sector is globally experiencing increasing demands and workplace interventions on an organisational level is sought to create healthy workplaces. The aim of this study was to provide an overview of Nordic research on the work environment and health of healthcare professionals, with a focus on identifying organisational-level risk and health-promoting factors.
